5 - How did you attract/address your audience?


This questionnaire was created to see what the audience we showed it too really thought about the opening sequence. In total 50 people were asked. Under neither there are many charts and graphs to show the results.
The questions on this questionnaire are as follows:
1) So you understand the narrative?
2) What genre would you say this piece falls under?
3)Under the guidance of the BBFC what age restriction would you say this film falls under?


After getting all the feedback we needed from people, we wanted to ask them one more simple question this was "Would you carry on watching from this opening sequence?" In reply over a 2 thirds of the views said that they would as the sequence was an enjoyable experience, and it was also intriging. They also stated that they wanted to know why that happened to the girl and how she got into that situation. This shows us that the opening sequence did what i should of, it brought the view in and made them want to carry on.
This graph is for the first question, "Do you understand the narrative?", as you can see from the results of the graph more than half said that they did understand the narrative, this is helpful to shows us that we have create the final piece correctly to get the narrative across to the audience.




This is the pie chart that i created to show the results to question 2 "what genre would you say this piece falls under?" The results are clear that most believed that is was a thriller, but some people thought it was a horror and a few others, this may of been because they either got the conventions of our opening sequences crossed with the conventions with a horror. Or it may be that they aren't that clear on what conventions are actually involved in what genre.




This is a chart for question 3 "What age restriction would you put this under? as you can see from the results most people who watched the opening sequenced believed that it suits the age restriction of 15. This means that as a group we have aged the film correctly as other people agree.





After we produced what we thought would be our "final edit" we added it onto facebook (a social networking site) this was so we got get feedback on it and so people could share their views and say what they think we could improve. On the left was th feedback we recieved. Many pepole said that they really enjoyed it, and that it was really good. However, a few of the people that gave us feedback suggested that we should keep the music playing in the background when the girl is singing "ring a ring a roses" We took up this suggestion and tried it out on the editing software "sonyvegas" and as a group we did think that it was so much better than before. This made us very thankful for the feedback that we recieved.





All in all i believe that this feedback allows us as a group to know that we have done what we set out to do, create an opening sequence to draws the viewer in and makes them want to watch on.
