The feedback was used to make improvements, such as changing the protagonist's gender to appeal more to the target audience. While some feedback questioned how comedy and OCD would be portrayed, it was still seen as useful insight. The feedback suggested the marketing campaign ideas were interesting and enjoyed by some of the target audience, indicating potential success.
This document is a proposal for a student film project. It will create a horror/comedy film trailer and accompanying movie posters. The target audience is identified as young adult males based on research of similar genres. A schedule is outlined over 10 weeks for research, planning, production, and evaluation. The goal is to challenge the student's skills and create professional-level work. Key aspects of the trailer and posters will be influenced by research of other successful products. Progress and quality will be evaluated against existing work and feedback.
The document summarizes what the author learned from audience feedback on their documentary project. They learned that documentaries can take different forms beyond just a narrator explaining a story. The feedback also helped the author identify adults and the elderly as the target audience. Selecting appropriate music was important to set the tone, and feedback helped the author choose fantasy-style music to match their fairy-themed documentary. Feedback on the rough cut motivated the author to improve editing techniques and try new effects.
The document discusses the target audience research conducted for a music video project. The initial target audience of 16-25 year olds from various backgrounds was found to be too broad. The age range was narrowed to 16-19 to focus on the students accessible to the researchers. Various research methods were used including questionnaires, focus groups, and gathering feedback on rough cuts of the video. The research helped shape the music video to better appeal to the target audience by clarifying concepts and addressing issues raised in oppositional feedback.
The document discusses several target audience research projects conducted to inform the creation of a music video. The initial target audience of 16-25 year olds was narrowed to 16-19 year olds. Questionnaires and focus groups were used to gather feedback. Later research projects using Flickr comments and recorded focus group discussions provided more useful data for analysis. The most effective questions addressed specific elements of the music video concept and helped evaluate audience understanding.
Beth conducted extensive audience research through profiles, online surveys, and focus groups to inform the creation of her music video and ancillary materials for the band Southlakes. The feedback revealed preferences for narrative videos featuring emotional storylines and uncovered opportunities to improve pacing and character relatability. Edits were made to address these points and increase audience engagement. Beth learned it is crucial to continually refer to target audiences to shape products according to their wants. Detailed audience understanding facilitates smooth creation of appealing materials.
The document discusses how the filmmaker's media product uses and develops conventions of documentary genres. The 5-minute documentary consists of an interview about happiness intercut with facts, figures, and recreations of the subject's life. This combines elements of traditional documentary, biographical documentary, advocacy documentary, and mockumentary genres. The filmmaker was inspired by examples like American Vandal and Tickled. While the documentary follows some conventions like interviews and a biographical focus on one person, it also challenges conventions through its mixing of genres, use of statistics, and focus on a female subject to subvert expectations.

Researching existing documentaries provided inspiration for interview styles, use of b-roll footage, and topics to explore like privacy issues on the internet and how much personal data is really shared online.
The document summarizes the results of a questionnaire about documentaries and religion. It found that most respondents were female aged 16-30, subscribed to streaming services like Netflix, and watched at least one documentary per week. While not religious themselves, respondents were still interested in religious documentaries. Most would choose to watch based on the topic rather than the presenter. Based on these results, the creator decided not to include themselves as a presenter, and to take a middle approach of being serious but not too heavy or light in discussing religious topics for their short student documentary.
The document provides feedback from audiences on a documentary. It finds that while the documentary successfully raised awareness as intended, it may have unintentionally shown a bias against underage drinking. Both male and female primary audiences felt it raised awareness, but females only saw the negatives while males saw positives like social aspects. The filmmaker realizes they should have better balanced positive and negative footage to avoid bias. Audience feedback helps the filmmaker evaluate what they did well conveying their purpose and messages, and where they may have fallen short of neutrality.
Maryam Latifi conducted audience research for her documentary on government censorship of sexually explicit music videos. She found that her initial target audience of 16-17 year olds was not appropriate, as they lacked knowledge of the topic. She also found that her title was too long. Based on the research, she revised her target audience to be older and more educated individuals familiar with issues of censorship. She also shortened the title. The research showed preferences for an investigative documentary using factual information and opinions, distributed online for viewing on laptops.
This proposal is for a documentary about the death of Maurizio Gucci titled "The Death of Gucci". The documentary will be created as a video and target an audience aged 18 and over. It will discuss the murder of Maurizio Gucci and the events that led to his death, focusing on his ex-wife Patrizia Reggiani who hired a hitman to kill him. Research will be done on true crime documentaries and audience feedback to help develop the aesthetic and presentation of information. The documentary will be evaluated through self-reflection, a director's commentary, and uploading it to YouTube to receive audience feedback, focusing on improving technical skills in editing.
The document discusses conventions used in documentaries and how the media product will utilize these conventions. It will create a documentary about the influence of the media on the 2017 UK election. It will use conventions such as a presenter to directly address the audience, interviews with experts and the public, archive footage, and cutaways. Ancillary products like a poster and TV listings will maintain the brand identity and showcase the presenter. While utilizing typical conventions, the documentary aims to take a unique look at the media's argued influence on the election results through the lens of the presenter.
The document describes experiments conducted for a short film project. The filmmaker tested production techniques like the dolly zoom effect and "Sherlock Holmes effect" camera tracking. Experiments with camera slider and keyframing in post-production helped recreate the dolly zoom. Audio experiments involved recording foley sounds to recreate a scene without audio. Potential constraints for production include limited locations and the technical challenge of creating a prop bomb.
Film Marketing Survey - Audience ResponsesLucy Bennett
The document summarizes the results of a survey about film marketing. It found that trailers are the most important form of advertising for thrillers. While thriller posters generally follow conventions like certain camera shots and colors, overdoing conventions can seem cliche. Respondents said posters should give some clues without revealing too much. The survey mostly reached young female respondents but found thrillers to be a popular genre overall. The results will help the author create effective marketing materials like trailers and posters for films.
This proposal is for a 1-minute celebratory video about York to be shown on YouTube and a 60-second exhibition version. The video will use double exposure to show the silhouette of York Minster with modern scenes of young people enjoying the city inside the silhouette. This represents York's history and roots alongside modern life. Background research found that local youth see York as boring, so the video aims to change this perspective by showing York's culture and history and that there is plenty to do compared to other UK places. The creator has experience making double exposure videos and editing skills from college courses.
Jamie Holland proposes a documentary film project about vegans. The rationale is that Jamie has skills in Premiere Pro from previous music video projects, including transitional effects, stabilizing effects, cropping, and removing audio or video, which will benefit the documentary production. The concept is to research the best location for an unbiased documentary, using an event for representation. Interviews will be unstaged to maintain the unbiased nature. Evaluation will come from ongoing self-evaluation and peer feedback to ensure the intentions are met and audience needs are considered. A bibliography and weekly tasks are outlined to complete the project.
The document discusses Jamie Holland's evaluation of a production process for a documentary. It covers research, planning, time management, technical qualities, aesthetic qualities, audience appeal, and peer feedback. For research, Jamie notes a lack of clarity on the documentary topic made audience research difficult. Planning helped reduce stress around budget and locations. Time management was mostly good but more time would have improved depth. Peer feedback praised the unbiased approach but noted some audio quality issues in one interview.
The student created a space-themed backdrop and planet using Photoshop tools like the shape and eyedropper tools to make a perfect circle. They added depth to the planet by coloring the circle and darkening part of it with shading, making it appear three-dimensional. For their final game, the student plans to use similar shading and circle techniques but will alter the backdrop and create a new planet.
The document discusses the planning and development process for a mobile space-themed game. It describes researching existing space games to determine gameplay elements like color schemes and inclusion of conflict. Mind maps and a mood board were created to plan the game concept and vision. A schedule was developed but not strictly followed. Strengths included the calming color background, but the UFO design could be improved. More elements could be added to the bottom of the screen to utilize empty space.
This document discusses pre-production planning for a game targeted at males aged 15-24 from socioeconomic groups C2DE who are emulators. It lists sound effects needed for the game, potential issues in production and solutions, and how health and safety concerns around extended computer use will be avoided by taking breaks.
The document discusses the pre-production process for a documentary project. It will be influenced by Louis Theroux's objective style and cover topics often ignored. The target audience is 18-24 year olds and it will be distributed on YouTube. A budget of £100 is granted. Various structure, font, and color scheme options are considered to represent veganism and nature. Location scouting, consent forms, equipment needs, and a production schedule are also outlined. Health and safety contingencies are discussed.
Jamie Holland wants to create an art magazine with a fashion magazine layout to attract more readers. The magazine will showcase lesser-known artists and controversial debates. Jamie wants readers to feel involved by thinking deeply about their opinions rather than being passive. The fashion magazine style seems refreshing compared to typical art magazines, which Jamie finds messy and unprofessional. Fashion magazines have a serious status that Jamie wants for the new magazine. A fashion style may attract more readers interested in both art and fashion.
Jamie initially planned to do a travel magazine for their GCSE project but felt it wasn't challenging enough. They decided to create an art and photography magazine instead to explore new genres. Jamie was inspired by the simple yet striking covers of magazines like Paper, Time, and Vogue. After considering different ideas, Jamie settled on an art magazine focusing on controversial topics and lesser-known artists. Each issue's color scheme would match the featured artwork. Jamie created a mood board with minimalist examples and planned a 5-week schedule to research, design, and produce the magazine.
The document provides research and planning for an Irn-Bru advertising project, including researching the brand's history, target audience, competitors, and existing advertising approaches. It also includes mood boards, concept ideas, and planning documents for a proposed TV commercial and mobile game aimed at promoting Irn-Bru in a humorous yet engaging way consistent with their brand. Details such as character descriptions, shot lists, and game mechanics are outlined.
This document provides an overview of wound healing, its functions, stages, mechanisms, factors affecting it, and complications.
A wound is a break in the integrity of the skin or tissues, which may be associated with disruption of the structure and function.
Healing is the body’s response to injury in an attempt to restore normal structure and functions.
Healing can occur in two ways: Regeneration and Repair
There are 4 phases of wound healing: hemostasis, inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. This document also describes the mechanism of wound healing. Factors that affect healing include infection, uncontrolled diabetes, poor nutrition, age, anemia, the presence of foreign bodies, etc.
Complications of wound healing like infection, hyperpigmentation of scar, contractures, and keloid formation.
Temple of Asclepius in Thrace. Excavation resultsKrassimira Luka
The temple and the sanctuary around were dedicated to Asklepios Zmidrenus. This name has been known since 1875 when an inscription dedicated to him was discovered in Rome. The inscription is dated in 227 AD and was left by soldiers originating from the city of Philippopolis (modern Plovdiv).

2. Existing Product: Louis and the Nazis
In this episode from Louis Theroux’s self titled documentary series, he
visits a family that are openly neo-Nazis. He stays with the family for a
couple of days and accompanies them to events such as ’skin-head rallies’,
all whilst asking them about their choice of lifestyle and gaining insight
into how they live day-to-day. Louis does this for most of his
documentaries. I think this is one of the best forms of reporting. It allows
an impartial insight into a topic that may not affect everyone and has a lot
of stigma/stereotype. It allows questions such as how do they live their
lives? and how do they think? It also lets us experience the subjects in
their most natural surroundings, instead of using talking head interview
styles. Ultimately this results in a much truer representation of a topic as
the viewer experiences it with the reporter. This makes it harder for for
manipulation of information to occur.
3. Existing Product
The camera angle here is something I wish to replicate. Its almost an
over the shoulder shot but isn’t quite there. The camera is angled so
we can see the interviewees full faces but only the back of the
interviewers head. This allows the focus to be completely on those
being interviewed, yet is still feels conversational. Talking head
interviews feels very staged and forced yet this seems very natural
and the pov of the camera allows the viewer to feel like they are the
one involved in the conversation.
4. Existing Product
Natural lighting occurs quite a bit in the
documentaries I’m taking inspiration from. This
means they don’t use any lighting set ups to
make the subject look favourable. Instead,
they use the light the have available such as
sunlight, moonlight and other light sources
that are out of their control/not part of their
equipment (i.e. lamps, streetlights, light from
buildings)
5. Research Analysis
Each of the researched products involve an immersive style of documenting. This is
something I definitely want to replicate.
Another thing they have in common is the lack of talking head interviews. This game
interview style seems too staged and forced for me and so their lack of appearance is
something I will definitely be using in my own project.
The existing products both use natural lighting when filming, whether it be sunlight or
the light from a lamp, no industrial lighting is used. This is another aspect that will
appear in my documentary. I feel as though it again reduces the staged aspect. If lights
have to be set up etc, the moment will have left and the subjects may have time to
alter themselves to portray a certain image. Not setting up lighting allows for a more
raw experience as it wastes no time and filming is immidiate. It also looks natural too,
allowing the audience to connect with what is happening onscreen.
7. Primary Audience research- Survey
To begin conducting my own research, I asked several members of
the classroom and other peers of mine whether they enjoyed
documentaries. This was so I could release my questionnaire to
those that were interested in the topic. Sending the questionnaire
out to people who aren’t interested in documentaries would
render their answers useless to me as they wouldn't be my target
audience. I wouldn't be able to differentiate between answers
from my target audience and those from uninterested in
documentaries.
I then created my survey and sent it to those interested. The first
two questions asked about gender and age. These are two basic
categories for audience. Finding out the majority demographic
would allow me to tailor my final product, as well as my
advertisements, to be most appealing to them.
The results I received showed me that my majority audience are
males that are around the ages of 18-24. Those that answered
under 18 were about 17 as I didn't ask anyone younger than that
so that is why I am suggesting my audience are around 18 years
old, despite the under 18 and 18-24 being at 46%. This may be a
setback as I have limited who has answered my survey, however,
the content of my final product may be a bit more mature in
terms of subject and language, and may not be suitable for a
younger audience.
8. Primary Audience research- Survey
After establishing the main demographic for my product, I decided
to ask what sort of documentaries appeal to them the most. It is
important to understand your audience as much as possible.
Hearing what they wanted to see the most would give me an insight
into what my audience were interested in, thus allowing me to tailor
my final product to their desires. It also broadens my horizons when
it comes to deciding what documentary to make, by making me
think of various topics.
The survey shows that my audience are interested in news,
scientific, and social and cultural documentaries. Using this
information, I have decided to create a social/cultural documentary.
This fits perfectly with my Louis Theroux style of interviewing as I
can immerse myself in a social group or culture for a day or two and
experience their lives.
9. Primary Audience research- Survey
I wanted my audience to have a say in what they’d be
interested in seeing and so with question 4, I asked them
and gave them the opportunity to reply with whatever they
wanted. Most replies I received seemed to relate to the
social and cultural topic more than any of the other most
popular answers. This question further increased my insight
into what my audience want from this documentary.
The majority of answers that relate to the social/cultural
aspect mention certain groups of people and other cultures.
These interest me as well so I feel confident about creating
a documentary about these.
This is where my survey ended however it didn’t feel
thorough enough and so I designed an interview that acted
as a follow up to this one. It ended up being based around
the social/cultural topic as that’s what my audience seemed
to enjoy the most, based on question 3 and 4.
10. Primary Audience research- Surveys
The answers to my survey allowed me to get a grasp of the main demographics of
my audience. My audience are mostly male (only by a small percentage) and are
between the ages of 18-24 (again only a small percentage taking over the under 18
category). This means that there needs to be a somewhat high energy with certain
parts of my documentary. I think I will open my documentary with attention-
grabbing clips, accompanied by tense music. Male audiences tend to favour
violence and aggression and so clips of that will be included within my project.
11. Primary Audience research- Interview
What conventions do you expect to see when watching a documentary? (Interviewees were
shown the conventions show in the preproduction powerpoint)
I always expect a narration in a documentary because it sets the scene and gives us information
that isn’t shown on-screen.
Are all these conventions necessary for a successful documentary or are a select few okay?
Not all because some don’t seem fitting for certain documentaries. It would be weird to see a
reconstruction in the one you’re filming because it wouldn’t make sense.
What conventions are most apparent in social/cultural docs?
I think talking head interviews seem to come up in the ones I’ve seen. Also archival footage also
shows up a lot too, especially whilst a narrator is explaining some past events involving the topic.
12. Primary Audience research- Interview
What conventions do you expect to see when watching a documentary? (Interviewees were
shown the conventions show in the preproduction powerpoint)
I would usually expect most of these.
Are all these conventions necessary for a successful documentary or are a select few okay?
I think only a select few are okay but as long as there is a good balance between visuals (such as
actual or reenacted footage) and graphics or captions to fully engage the viewer and not bore
them
What conventions are most apparent in social/cultural docs?
I think statistics would be good to include in your documntary, either on a graph or spoken. I’ve
seen them used to give some more background on the subject in most social documentaries,
especially ones done by BBC Three.
13. Primary Audience research- Interview
What conventions do you expect to see when watching a documentary? (Interviewees were
shown the conventions show in the preproduction powerpoint)
All of the ones shown, except for graphics, I don’t think they’re completely necessary.
Are all these conventions necessary for a successful documentary or are a select few okay?
Not at all. Only use the ones that seem relevant to what is going on in the documentary. A select
few are definitely okay but for yours I think you should definitely include actuality footage and a
voice over.
What conventions are most apparent in social/cultural docs?
Actuality footage and archival footage because the archival footage paints a picture of what
you’re investigating and actuality footage because it will show your findings, which lets you create
a conclusion.
14. Primary Audience research- Interviews
The interviews have shown me what my audience expect from my documentary in
terms of conventions. They seem to definitely expect a narration of some sort and
archival footage, as well as actuality footage. I will include these three for sure in
my product. It is important that I take these interviews into account as it will help
the reception of my documentary to be positive. They have expressed what they
think a documentary should include, letting me know what they would enjoy to
see. I am trying to make this feel like a documentary as much as possible for them.
15. Secondary Audience research
I viewed the audience analytics Vice have via a
media kit Vice provide for new employees. I
discovered that their audience are young and
typically millennial. By this I mean they are
left-wing young adults that have an instant-
gratification mindset.
16. Secondary Audience research
This screenshot from the media kit
shows us the socioeconomic group
the target audience belong to as
well as their education and gender.
From their statistics it is easy to tell
that, due to their average income
and their level of education, their
audience is part of the ABCD1
group. They’re also predominantly
male. This part of the secondary
research compliments my primary
research as I also discovered that
most of my audience were male.
17. Secondary Audience research
From the research I have learnt that my audience are young adults belonging to
the millennial generation. The mindset of this generation is progressive and they
are very aware of subjects such as politics. Millennials also research topics in
order to understand them better in order to form their own opinions. This means
it is important for my documentary to be entirely truthful and representative. If I
were to impose a false ideology onto my audience, they would become aware of
it and ultimately help my documentary to fail.
20. Subject Research
Conventions
Archival Footage: footage taken from sources such as the news/not
taken by the director
Actuality Footage: Footage filmed by the director for the documentary
Voice Over: Non-diegetic narration, often explaining what is happening
on-screen
Reconstruction: a scene acted out depicting real-life events
Talking Head: an interview style filmed using a medium close up
22. Practical Research
The video on the left was taken using my phone and the video the the right was
taken using a camera. I wanted to see what image quality would seem better. I
decided from this to use a camera as the camera has a locked focus option which
would mean the subject of my shots wouldn’t shift in and out of focus. Autofocus
is a big feature in phone cameras and it is difficult to keep the focus on one
specific subject. The colours of the camera also appear more realistic whereas
the phone seems too saturated.
