Audience Feedback-Miss Georgiou

Audience Feedback-Miss Georgiou
How is audience feedback important to a production?
Audience feedback is important to a production because it allows my group to gain the constructive critisism that was given out and helps us to improve the parts of the sequence that the audience felt needed improving. Audience feedback also allows the group to understand the parts of the sequence that the group done well in and the parts of the sequence that we need to address in order to make it better as a whole.    

How did you receive audience feedback from your target audience?

We received audience feedback in several different ways for example we presented our sequence as a power point presentation to the class. We used this as a way of getting vital feedback from several students and we can use feedback sheets that were given out to improve the quality of the thriller sequence. Another way of receiving feedback was through the use of questionnaires

How would this feedback benefit your production and the industry?


The feedback benefits my group in numerous different ways for example it enables us to to identify the mistakes in the sequence and where slight different improvements that can be made from the rough cut to the final production of our film. The feedback allows us to change the different parts of the sequence to make it have a positive impact on the direction of the sequence instead of a negative impact.

Comments made on things we could work on

The narrative of our film was mentions by others as they felt it was one that certain aspects could be worked on for example making it clearer to the audience towards the start of the narrative and at the end of the narrative as well.

Another comment that was made is the lack of using sound effects to my groups advantage. The comments showed that we should include different types of sound effects to add more tension and suspense within the scene

A final comment that was made is the lighting of the sequence as people felt it was very dark and it made the sequence unclear of what happened at the end of the sequence.

How the group overcame these problems

We overcame the criticism on the narrative by using and developing more short scenes into the sequence which would hopefully make the sequence clearer to the audience.

The sound effects was an easy problem to overcome as we searched for suitable sound that can be added to the sequence to make a better effect to the sequence and in particular finding the correct sound for the chase scene in the forest was crucial to the sequence.

The lighting problem was another easy problem to overcome as we as a group just went and filmed the certain parts of the sequence that was deemed too dark by the audience. This made the sequence much more clearer and more understanding towards the audience.

  1. You have made a start in explaining why audience feedback is essential to carry out and you have also included some of the comments that you received. But you also need to include the names too.

    You have started to reflect on the comments, but this needs to be explored in a lot more detail, by referring to specific examples, about what you will change and why?
