Emily learned that audience feedback is invaluable for creating a production that audiences can enjoy. She found smaller screenings with peers provided useful feedback on continuity issues and clarity. This helped Emily plan more thoroughly. Audience members praised the film's use of sound and music, saying it fit the characters and mood well. Post-filming interviews with the target audience helped develop the narrative and follow audience interests. Constructive criticism noted the need to further develop the main character's illness progression. Quantitative research through questionnaires allowed issues like certain acting performances to be identified and improved. Overall the feedback was positive and showed the film succeeded in its goals of appealing to its target demographic.
Evaluation - Q3
The filmmaker received positive feedback on their film's storyline during pre-production from test audiences. Two audience members provided suggestions during the rough cut stage - to add a sound effect and improve a fight scene. The filmmaker implemented these changes and additional test audiences responded positively, finding the revised film more appealing. The film aims to satirize the office environment and portray themes like depression that may resonate differently with viewers based on their own experiences.
Evaluation Question 3
Our target audience for the film was 15-25 year olds, so we gathered feedback from our classmates who were 16-17 years old. Their feedback helped us improve elements of our film. They noted that the teaser established the brother-sister relationship but some thought a character died so we shortened that shot. For the poster, they liked the colors and font but suggested adding a release date. Their feedback improved the magazine by having us add more text and a background. The final teaser trailer received positive feedback on its shots, pacing, sound, and how elements worked together professionally.
Question 3
The document summarizes feedback received from pre-production and post-production questionnaires about a short film. In pre-production, the storyline was confusing to outsiders but clarified after further development. Most respondents thought the film should be rated 12A or 15. In post-production, feedback was positive with minor requested changes. The document provides evaluations of three sample responses, noting their impressions of genre, rating, technical elements, and character engagement. Overall, the feedback helped improve the film.
What have you learned from your audience feedback? 2
The document summarizes audience feedback received for a student film project at two stages - initially after distributing a questionnaire about the film synopsis, and after uploading a rough cut to YouTube. The feedback was overwhelmingly positive, with high ratings given for story understandability, music/sounds, enjoyment and genre classification as a psychological thriller targeting teens and young adults. A few minor improvements were suggested and implemented, such as lowering a loud heart beat sound effect and adding dialogue to an attack scene. Most feedback validated the filmmakers' creative choices. The final cut incorporated some audience suggestions but retained the filmmakers' original vision where feedback disagreed.
Analysis for questionnaire
The document summarizes the results of a survey given to 10 people (5 males and 5 females) about their movie preferences. Key findings include:
- The target audience is mainly ages 18-21 but the researcher wants to widen the audience.
- Most respondents are students with little income so illegally downloading movies is preferred to paying for cinema tickets.
- Comedy and mystery are the most enjoyed genres, with psychological thriller as the second most popular.
- Trailers are very important for appealing to audiences and determining if they see a movie. Sound, props, and costumes are most effective in trailers.

Our media product opens like a typical teen horror film to attract our target audience of teenagers. We set the scene of teenagers on a remote holiday without parents to build tension. Our 'Demon' character is modeled after the little girl from 'The Ring' but with modern teen clothing. Our production company is Avalon and distributor is Mordred. As a 15-rated horror film, it cannot include discriminatory, offensive or sexual content but can have strong threats and menace. Through constructing this product, I have learned about editing software, cameras, shots, sound design and analysis of film techniques.

It provides examples from the film "28 Days Later" where negative feedback improved the ending. The author's group created a horror film trailer and gathered feedback from surveys, test screenings with other students and non-students, which helped them improve the pacing, add necessary elements like titles, and decide not to reveal too much of the plot. The feedback was overall positive and helped strengthen the scary and suspenseful elements of the trailer.
Evaluation Question 3
The document summarizes feedback from audiences on a student film group's short film at various stages of development:
- An initial questionnaire provided feedback on the storyline, genre, music, and rating which helped the group improve the film.
- A second questionnaire on a rough cut also provided positive feedback on understanding the story, enjoying the plot twist, and suggestions to improve the final film.
- The final film questionnaire indicated the film was successful, with most rating it highly and saying they would recommend it due to its originality.
Q 3
The document discusses the importance of gathering audience feedback at various stages of creating a film or other product. It provides examples of how the film "28 Days Later" improved based on feedback to the original ending. The author's group gathered feedback on a horror film trailer they created from target audiences and others. This feedback identified ways to improve the pacing, inclusion of titles, sound effects, and other elements. The group implemented these changes, which enhanced the success and appeal of the final trailer.
Evaluation Questions 4 and 5
The document discusses audience testing and feedback for a student media project. It provides results from questionnaires given to the target audience of 15-24 year olds. Overall, the feedback was positive - most respondents correctly identified the genre as horror, found the opening tense, understood the plot and use of flashbacks, and said they would recommend the film. Some constructive feedback addressed improving elements like sound design and building more tension. The students were pleased most feedback validated their creative choices while also identifying potential areas for enhancement.
Presentation2
The document summarizes feedback received from audiences on a film project. It shows that most audience members found the circular narrative and unexpected ending to be successful. While a minority felt the ending was unsuccessful, this was likely a biased opinion. The feedback also showed that audiences generally liked or loved the film. Areas identified as effective included the soundtrack, editing skills, camera angles, and use of mise-en-scene. However, audiences were mixed on how well the main character was developed. Overall, the feedback provided useful insights to both the strengths and areas for potential improvement in future projects.
Evaluation part 4 what you have learnt from your audience feedback.
The document discusses feedback received from test screenings of a trailer for a psychological horror film called "The Hanging Tree." Positive feedback included that the story was clear and engaging, the soundtrack was effective, and costumes and sets looked good. Negative feedback noted that more should happen later in the trailer, the main character should be shown more, and a visual jump scare was needed. Edits were made to address these points, including reshooting and adding a final fast-paced montage. Further screenings received positive responses, confirming the improved trailer would appeal to its target audience.
Q3
The document discusses the importance of obtaining audience feedback at various stages of film production and marketing. It provides details about the feedback received from rough cut screenings of the filmmaker's teaser trailer, which helped identify needed changes to improve clarity and appeal. Additional feedback from the final screening of the teaser, poster, and magazine showed that the marketing campaign was successful in conveying a cohesive narrative and generating interest in the film.
Evaluation taks 3 media
Test screening involves showing previews of movies or TV shows to audiences before their general release to get feedback. Participants complete questionnaires about their reactions which can help filmmakers identify ways to improve the work, such as editing or additional scenes. This process is important as it allows movies and shows to be refined before wide release based on audience response, improving their chances of success and popularity.
Evaluation 3
The document discusses feedback received on a student's horror film marketing products, including a trailer, magazine, and poster. The feedback helped improve the projects and understanding of audience interests. It revealed that equilibrium was too long, the narrative needed clarifying, and the trailer's jump scare required a scarier sound effect. Positives included the fast-paced shots building tension and unusual underwater shots. Magazine feedback suggested adding more cover lines of varied interests. The poster feedback was to choose one strong image and update the release date.
Question 3
The filmmakers received feedback on their film from an audience questionnaire and video interviews. The audience found the story line confusing but liked the overall idea. To address this, the filmmakers simplified the plot. They also posted a rough cut online and received feedback to make the story clearer, such as adding voiceovers. After completing the final cut while implementing this feedback, they posted it online again and received a positive comment, showing their improvements addressed the audience's initial concerns.

Question 3 - Focus Group
- 1. The focus group for our trailer consisted of teenagers aged 17-18 years. Our target audience for the film Infatuated would be males and females aged 16+. It was quite surprising how well the interviewees managed to pinpoint the exact genre of the trailer being psychological horror, a sub genre of horror, and displayed how well we had chosen a plot that could portray this. We had initially thought that the females might enjoy the horror as it is common place for friends to watch these movies in the cinema with the motive of being scared. This was proved by the reactions of the focus group who seemed to thoroughly enjoy the tension created by the montage and choice of music. The soundtrack proved to be essential in creating this atmosphere which I found quite surprising as I had expected the plot to be the most important aspect. The answers from the question regarding the plot line showed great understanding from the audience about what occurred in the trailer and implies that we were successful in creating a complex yet understandable story. This was relieving to hear as our group were anxious about how well the filmโs plot line could be understood and followed from the perspective of someone viewing the trailer for the first time. FOCUS GROUP
- 2. Unfortunately, we were unable to film the reactions of males at the time of recording. However, after completing the interviews, we held several mini screenings of our trailer to large groups of students including males within the 17-18 age range. Across both males and females, many enjoyed the ending jump scare as it was quite unexpected and โvery creepyโ. Several noted praise on the glitch effect used which was achieved using Premiere Pro. I was particularly happy to hear this as I felt as though I had improved significantly throughout the whole process of editing and learning this from a potential audience was encouraging. Some of the audience thought that the use of locations especially in the basement scene and the mise-en-scene was very effective in creating a horror landscape. They enjoyed the use of props such as the newspapers and stalker images. These may seem like a miniscule aspect of the trailer yet they add a sense of realism which many of the males touched upon in their reactions. The reactions from the trailer were overall very positive and it felt very exciting for our group to see our work being enjoyed by our peers. One even stated that they would watch the film in the cinema if it was real, showing just how effective the promotional package was in encouraging consumers to be interested in the film.
- 3. In terms of points for improvement, the focus group revealed that it would have been good to have the date of release for the film included. We also agreed with this as we realised after completion that this would be very important information for the consumers and we had missed it out. This would be something to add to a future trailer in order to create an even more professional product. In conclusion, the focus group interviews and reactions from further target audience groups helped us to discover what we succeeded in and where there is room for improvement. It is clear that our mise-en-scene, audio and editing skills were showcased effectively in the trailer from the reviews of the audience and so our trailer was very positive in these aspects. However, the feedback also showed that we should try to improve some of our camerawork which was unsteady at times and focus more on the general conventions of trailers such as the release date.
