Audience Feedback

For our Audience Feedback we all decided to create an Audience Feedback Questionnaire. we handed all of these out to 6 people who watched our film opening and the filled them in according to the following questions which are stated blow. 




Here are the results!! . . . .

The first question that we asked was "What is Your Age?"
- Four people who answered this questionnaire were between the age of 15-17. One person answered this question as them being in the 18-21 bracket. And the last person stated that they was in the bracket of 27-30. These results show that the majority of people who filled in the questionnaire was in the bracket of 15-17 years old. this means that we were right to have our target audience as being 15years and older. This also means that if we were to distribute and advertise this product to an audience then we would have to aim it to this particular bracket.


The second Question that we asked was "How much do You Earn Annually?"
- The majority of the results which we received was £12,00 and below. This was due to the fact that the majority of the people who answered this question was no older than 17, meaning that they probably do not work and even if they are employed, it is very unlikely that they will earn more than £12,000. Although we did ask a couple of older people who answered saying that they earn £25000 and over. This means that our established audience is around the social group of late teens/early adulthood. This is what we was aiming for and we managed to achieve it.


The Third Question that we asked was "What is Your Gender?"
- To properly understand who we are going to distribute to, Gender plays the biggest part of the audience analyse. When we tallied up the the amount of male or female who answered, we discover that 2 males had answered and that the majority was female, making it 4. This means that the majority of our advertisement and marketing would have to be aimed at a female audience. When considering this we knew in order to attract females to the film, we would have to advertise with the feminine touch. By stereotypical Females, you wouldn't put Guns and blood and explosions on a cover as a male audience would be more attracted. We would have to do the opposite effect in order to get our target audience interested in film.


The forth Question that we asked was "What is your Occupation?"
- the majority of people that answered the question were students with a part time job. this result was predicted by us as they was again no older than 17. We also had one result from an English/ Media teacher and she answered the questionnaire as part of our feedback. from the results of this question we know establish that the audience that will be viewing this film will be Working class rather than Upper or Lower Class. 


The fifth Question that we asked was "What was your Favorite Part of our Film Opening and Why?"
- We got quite a lot of positive response from this question as they all liked different parts of our film opening. Our Media teacher said that she liked the camera angles and the style of the footage at the very start of the film opening. we really appreciated this coming from her, as we worked really hard to come up with the start and to come up with the angles to shoot from. Another person said that they really enjoyed the part where Charley ran off. Me personally am so proud of that shot as Charley did this the first time round and we didn't have to touch this piece of footage. Someone else said that they really enjoyed the part where Fay Tripped over as this gave the scary film a bit of comedic value which was needed to break up some of the tension. This feedback is amazing as we are all very proud of what we have achieved. 

The Sixth Question that we asked was "What didn't you like about our film opening and Why?"
- people answered this question with the answers "Maybe more stuff needs to happen early on, More mud, and the title had no reference to the actual film opening. these are all the respondents opinions and we take them all into consideration. If we were able to film it again we would make it a little longer so we could build up the tension a bit more to further scare our audience.  


The Seventh Question that we asked was "What suggestions would you give us in order to Improve this?"
- We got a lot of positive feedback and the stuff that was given to us as improvement was also very positive. one person said "Maybe the scene where fay is killed should be more gory". I also think this as the scene didn't look that convincing as it should. Because of the area we was in and the supplies that we had, we wasn't able to make or buy blood to use. if we had a little more time and did it out of school time then the blood aspect would have made the killing more realistic. Another said "Change the title". I think that the audience didn't understand why is was called "Prohibited". we should have made it a lot more clear that the area which Charley & Fay entered was in fact a prohibited area. We was originally going to have a sign on the gate which would have probably explained the film a bit more, but we didn't have time to make one.


The Last Question that we asked was "Would you watch the Rest of The Film?"
-  Luckily for our group, everyone that we happened to ask said "YES". I was expecting a mixed review but was gladly surprised when they all said that they would like to see the rest of the film. Unfortunately, we are not making the rest of the film as i would take a very long time to complete. Some reasons that we guessed for this reaction was because the audience wanted to see what happens 3 weeks after fay is killed. The reason may even be that the audience felt that there was enough tension and suspense and they wanted to see if the effect is shown through the rest of it. We have truly created a brilliant piece of work and have a attracted a good audience which we think would stay loyal to us and the film.
