What have you learnt from your audience feedback?

From getting feedback from my film this has helped me become aware of the things that I need to consider if I was going to do a task like this in the future, I have asked my target audience what they believe my strong points are and also what my weakest points are, this has helped me because this person was my target audience and therefore their opinion counts more than anybody else out their.

My target audience was a male, in their early 20's who likes to go out with their friends and spend a bit of spare money. This is the exact group of people I have asked for my audience feedback.

From my audience feedback, I have learnt that;

• In the future I would need to show more of a relationship between the magazine front cover and the poster with the film trailer itself. This will then link all three together and give the audience a clear idea of what message I am giving the audience.
•  Show more scenes from the story line itself so that the audience can get a clear idea of what the film is about.
• Show more action scenes then just one of the characters running through a wooded area, such as show a car chase happening or some characters having a fight, this will excite the audience further.

Although there were some points that I needed to work on, there was also some points that I was told was really strong for my work, such as;

• The scenes where I combine some trailer footage mixed with a black screen to give an strobe light effect to my trailer was a success because this wanted the audience to really focus what was happening in my sequence.
• The trailer is quick paced which keeps the audience on their toes as they watch my trailer, this also does not make the audience bored when they watch my trailer because their is a cut nearly every second.
• The relationship between the magazine front cover and the film poster is perfect because you use the same image this shows a clear relationship and therefore when the audience sees both of these together they can see the relationship.

These are the things I have learnt from my audience feedback and if I was to re-do this years work I would definitely make sure that these points were taken into consideration, my target audience was happy with the way that my work has turned out and they said "they look forward to seeing my film in the cinemas shortly".
