Target Audience Feedback

This lesson in our group we asked six year 8's to help us with give feedback on our film opening. We felt this was a good age group because this age is our target audience. They had a lot of positive things to say about our film opening and also gave us an idea of what we could do to improve.

These were the questions we asked them:

• was the genre obvious?
• What do you think the genre was?
• Did the film engage or interest you?
• What was your favourite part of the film opening?
• Was there anything in particular you didn't like about the film opening?
• Did you like the music- did it suit?
• Is there anything about the film you would change or improve, and how?
• What would you rate our film opening out of 10?

We also created a questionnaire using survey monkey which anyone was able to respond to once they had watched our opening sequence.  We emailed this questionnaire to a  large selection of people ranging from ages 6-60 this was to get more accurate results and find out whether out our target audience and other research was correct. We were also able to get a better understanding of the direct audience and their interests.

Our Film Poster

Sophie created many different poster drafts and here are a few.
The photographs on them were taken when filming the first scene of our film opening, when Eva is mysteriously lying on the floor in the woods. The photos were taken using Sophie's Iphone and she also created these posters on her phone too.

Evangeline: Final draft

This is the final outcome of our opening sequence of 'Evangeline'. It took a lot of time and effort to create this product and we are pleased with the outcome.

Production Diary

This is a diary showing an overview of what our group did on a daily basis from the beginning of the film making process to the end. It was rewarding to see the progress our group made over time because at the beginning we didn't think we would achieve as much as we have. We worked efficiently as a group and all contributed vital ideas to make our final outcome a successful one.

Script for our new film opening

This is the new and updated script. It is just a voiceover and not actual speech. It is played during the footage of the trees and Eva lying on the floor in the woods (scene 1).
We kept the dialogue minimal becuase we wanted more emphasis on the footage itself than what the characters were saying. We wanted the visauls (mise en scene) to tell the story and not the speech.
Our speech tells the audience enough for them to understand what the film is going to entail, even though there isn't much of it. We find this a sign of success because it shows that our footage is good.

Fonts for titles

We originally had a pale yellow font for our titles i have learnt that titles need to look more professional so we ended up with using a dark maroon colour.

We have used Adobe Carlson Pro as the typeface. We think this looks professional and not too modern.
