When getting feedback from the class, we handed out an audience feedback sheet for them to fill out whilst watching the extract. There were a few questions on there which they answered and helped us to see their point of view. Many of the sheets we reviewed showed a pattern - there was a trend between the answers. We evaluated all the answers and gathered the results into the most common answers:
1) What was good about the film?
* There was good camerawork from different angles and perspectives.
* Good plot development through the character - easily understandable.
* The protagonist acted well and genuinely looked lost when needed - she portrayed her character well.
2) Who do you think the target audience is?
* Some thought it was aimed at teenagers whereas others thought it was aimed for adults.However, the most common one they all agreed on was young adults.
* Aimed at people who enjoy horror which meant that they all grasped the genre.
3) Did you notice any serious issues such as continuity errors, strange edits - Did anything not make sense to you?
* It was predictable.
* Not enough shots of the protagonists' reaction.
* Did not make sense at times - when the girl is walking into the forest, there is a shot of her walking into the deep forest, however the next shot involves her walking on a pathway. This was due to the various continuity errors towards the end of the extract. Shaky at parts.
* No suspense built - lack of editing at this point; sound needed for enhancement.
* Needs a lot of editing and re-ordering of shots.
My name is Ruba Khan and this is my media blog in which I will be doing all my coursework on, homework and any tasks we may need to do. I am currently doing media studies as an AS level and hope to carry it on for A2. I enjoy this subject thoroughly and I would love to do something along the lines of this in the future. I enjoy filming and editing the most. I like to be creative and would like to think I am a creative person. I have a thirst to make things unique and exemplify them in my own way. However, the theory part of media is very interesting to see how things are created in the media industry (films, music videos, adverts, etc.). Also it is fascinating to see all the cast & crew, cameras and time that goes into making something tricky look so easy as we watch it.
