EVALUATION

QUESTION 3
WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNED FROM YOUR AUDIENCE
FEEDBACK?
HOW HAVE YOU CARRIED OUT YOUR
AUDIENCE FEEDBACK?

Focus group at the end


Had target and general audience
Throughout production we regularly showed snippets of the piece to members of
our target audience to guage their opinions on things like colour schemes and shot-
types etc.
WHAT POSITIVE COMMENTS WERE
RECEIVED ABOUT THE PIECE?

ADAPTED CONVENTIONS OF DIFFERENT DOCUMENTARIES


CLEAR GENRE
Engaginguses artistic elements as well as conventional
Poster is clearly a channel 4 poster
Radio ad sounds as expected on capital radio whilst driving to work
WHAT NEGATIVE COMMENTS WERE
RECEIVED ABOUT THE PIECE?

Location could have been improved


Got slow towards the end
Narrator could have had a more clearly defined role
Sound mixing could have been better
Poster could have had more use of imagery rather than colour
Radio could have been more akin to the other products.
HOW MIGHT THESE COMMENTS CHANGE
HOW YOU WORK AS A GROUP OR SOLO IN
THE FUTURE?

Largely speaking we worked on different aspects so relationship between the three


products wasnt as tight as it could have been
Shared objective could have been more understood so that the three projects could
have been more united in their style
Better communication between members
In the future Ill do more enquiry into the likes/dislikes of the target audience.
WHAT DID THE COMMENTS TEACH YOU
ABOUT EDITING AND PRODUCING A
DOCUMENTARY?
Documentaries dont have to be boring
Dont have to be the same set of conventions-can blend the modes together
Maintaining attention can be difficult
Tone is very important-tone of poster- affects how people view it and their
perception of it
Continuity between texts-ancillary texts have to be extensions of their main text,
not a separate thing
WHAT HAVE YOU LEARNT ABOUT THE
PROCESS OF AUDIENCE FEEDBACK?
Anonymous feedback would help them be more honest in their replies
Film might not be the best idea as they might be more focused on the fact that
theyre on camera than their answers
More open questions allow for more extensive answers than closed yes or no
questions
Audience feedback throughout the product is key to keeping focus on what your
target audience wants
