These are the current results of the audience feedback questionnaire. Lots of different people have taken the questionnaire and so we have a wide range of opinions and feedback to help improve our film further.
Results of Sections 1
In this section we asked for a little bit about the person taking the questionnaire so that we could see who is telling us their opinion of the film and whether they were who we were aiming it at and whether their age/ gender would affect their opinion. We have also asked if they think the film is understandable and what genre they think it could be? Also in section one we have asked if they like the style and to state anything they thought was good as well as bad. Also by asking who they think it appeals to this gives us more of an idea of who would enjoy this short film. We have included open questions for the people to give their feedback, this way it is not restricted and they can say what they think. It also helps because we can see any improvement the audience think will benefit the film and we can then try and put it into our film if possible.
Results of section 2
In section 2 we have asked questions about what has been seen in the film. We have asked this to see if certain aspects of the film are picked up on and understood. We have also added a misleading question 'What is the dogs name?' to see if people were watching properly as this isn't stated in the film.

Analysis of results
We have have a wide range of people who have taken this questionnaire, both male and female and ages ranging from 10 to above 31. This has helped get a wider view of what different people think rather than just getting the same type and age of people for example teenage girls.
This graph shows that out of the everyone who answered the questionnaire females enjoyed the film more and overall gave a higher rating out of 10 than the males did. However this doesn't mean to say every female who answered enjoyed the film. But on average this shows that it appeals more to women than men.To get a more accurate idea of who it appeals to, here is a graph showing who the respondents thought it would appeal to.
The graph shows that some people thought the film appealed more to teen than adult and children but there is a small percentage that thought it would appeal to all age groups.
Overall these two graphs show on average female teenager are more likely to enjoy the film more than any other people.
We asked for people to state what they liked and dislike about the film and we have had mixed results. They have mentioned that they think the film has been made to a high quality by having good angles and camera as well as including music that is relevant for what is happening on the film at that certain point. They have also mentioned that the title sequence is good and looks professional.
However the majority of people have mentioned the story line to be too confusing due to jump in time at the start of the film. Originally we wanted the flashback to be the point of realization for both the character and the audience and this would show they are the same character at different ages, but this questionnaire has shown we need to make it more clear to the audience. To sort this problem we need to show that time has moved on and the 2 girls are the same character. We could do this by adding some text on screen to show some years have passed or for the character to say something that shows she is the younger girl a few years on. By doing this this would help explain the character a bit more helping another point the audience dislike about the film.
An improvement that only one person has mentioned but I feel is a big thing we need to do is to alter the volume of some of the sound. They have mentioned that the music is too loud in some parts and that the voice over is too quiet in others. This is a simple alteration that will help improve the quality of the film as well as the audience's understanding because the voice over is a very important turning point in the film.
Another improvement someone said was 'to expand on the thief's role and show more of the characters traits, possibly a reason behind why she took the things and maybe turn the story on it's head and give a plausible explanation why she stole the items e.g. she didn't steal but had them for a good reason that pleased her friend' I really like this idea and if we were to make the film longer and more detailed we could take this into account, but as we are only making a 5 minute film I think this would cause the story line to be too complex.
Section 2 has helped greatly; in seeing if the audience has or hasn't picked up on certain parts of the film that are both important and minor. every question asked everyone got it correct. The main part of the film we wanted the audience to pick up on was the phone getting fixed, but the way the question was asked only a few people put this in their answer, but this is enough to show that they do pick up on it. Even the misleading question about the dogs name went well because no made up a name or thought they had heard one.
Overall the feedback we have gotten from this questionnaire has been very helpful and we are going to use this to improve our film further to make more clear and appealing to our target audience.
