Part 6

After our production was complete we showed other candidates our work to
obtain feedback, they suggested good points and faults about our work. The
responses received about the production were from our target audience so we
could easily identify if whether the film appealed to them which it did. I think
the research I did for my target audience was very reliable the feedback and
constructive criticism was expected.

I found out that the music interested and engaged my target audience, the
mise-en-scene also appealed to them as my opening sequence included a
range of locations. We made sure we used both male and female characters to
represent our audience as we were targeting both genders. The narrative
instantly got the audience asking questions and wanting to find out more. Here
is the feedback I received.
