Video Entries- Participation
We decided as a group for our evaluations to create video entries for each of our questions as our characters in the trailer. We felt that to get good marks, we had to be creative in our evaluations and it was agreed that we would film each question in a location that the character relates to the most.
This was decided between Harry, Michael and Robin as Jack was not in school when the decision was made. We then proceeded after school to message Jack and tell him of the idea and if he wanted to do the same thing. He decided though that he would like to take a different approach to his evaluation. We were fine with this and gave him the opportunity to take part with what we were doing. We used facebook to ask him this question and then spoke to him afterwards to make sure that he was sure about his decision.
We are posting this to just make sure that it is seen that we didn't disclude him purposefully from the group.

Evaluation Style
I have decided to complete my evaluation question in the form of a video entry, as the character that I portrayed in the trailer, DC Summers. I decided to do these entries in a location that would portray this character, which is where he met Toby. I did this here in particular because it is one of the most important parts of the trailer and what happens in this scene leads to what happens further on in the film/trailer.

Feedback Questionnaire Results

These are all of the responses from our audience feedback questionnaires. These are really important as they show us what parts of the trailer need to be improved. This also shows us their ideas which we could find to be very good and work within our trailer.
We wanted to make sure that we chose the right target audience and that they enjoyed our trailer. If the results from the teenagers and young adults we received back were negative, then we would feel that our trailer wasn't successful.
We also asked people who weren't in our target audience for their honest responses of the trailer as well. We did this because we wanted to see if people of other ages liked the trailer, as when we constructed this, we didn't feel that they would as much as our target audience.The people in our target audience gave the best responses over the people who weren't. This is what we expected and we are happy with this as it shows that we have met their needs as an audience. Even because of this, they aren't completely happy with the overall product and we know that the best way to improve the trailer is by asking them the key questions and them giving their honest opinions.

The main parts which our audience felt that we should improve was the use of camera angles and costume. We as a group will now look into these throughout the trailer, look at the feedback and decide what is best to do.
