Audience questionair results

The audience contained both males and females between the ages of 16 - 24.

Here are our findings from the screening:


  • Target audience - Firstly we found that we have successfully caught the attention of part of our target audience. The girls body language was open whilst watching the footage. The boys simply looked board one even checked the clock to see how long of the viewing was left. This was emphasised more in the feed back of our questionnaire. For example, when asked, 'Would you want to watch the whole documentary?And Why?' comments such as the following were given. " I would defiantly want to watch a second half, I don't feel this issue is highly addressed" (girl) and " It was good however needs more information for boys, lost interest part way though" (boy).

  • Audio and Editing - We asked 'What did you think of the editing?' and 'Do you think the music compliments our documentary?'. Due to our documentary not being completely finished in terms of editing we understood that there would be a plethora of criticism. For example due to there being a 'voice of god' Narration over a blank screen (as we have not yet uploaded the chosen image), all commented on this saying there should be an image. Feed back on the audio was positive. This shows with regards to our target audience (demographic) that we have picked the appropriate Audio, as it is modern, recognisable (therefor hook/ create and keep the audience interested as they can identify this with this part of culture). We did recieve critcism however on raising and lowering the levels and with part. This shall be adjusted imediatly.

  • Interviews - As a general note it was highlighted that the interview with Francisca MacArthur ran too long. We feel that the views being expressed with in this interview is highly important and should not be cut away from. So to compromise with this feed back we are going to split the interview in to two halves but place appropriately.
