Thoughts on Audience Research Feedback

After asking our peers about what they thought made a good short story, I surmised from it that our story will need to be concise and interesting with elements of suspense that will keep our audience wanting to know what happens next, and I believe with the implied rape in our story our audience will be shocked and interested to know how our story ends.

I also took note that our peers like drama and humour. I believe that our storyline is dramatic as the premise revolves around everyday life, yet something shocking happens that could possibly happen in real life and therefore we bring a dramatic element into our story, and with shots such as the girl putting her glasses on incorrectly, struggling to walk in heels and realising her Hello Kitty watch isn't 'cool' I believe that we bring a slightly humorous element into our film also.

Our peers also said that the main aspect they enjoyed about other teen dramas was that the situations and characters in them were lifelike ones and so they could relate to them. I believe that the setting of our film is easy to relate to as most 18 year olds are at college and attend parties often which may potentially bring up the chance to become involved with alcohol and drugs. The characters within our film are also representative of some of the different people you'll find in different groups at college, so I believe that our film will be pretty successful with our peers.

I believe that our peers thought our storyline was quite a good one as they seemed to believe it was believable and easy to relate to, but dramatic at the same time. They also thought that within our film we were trying to give out a clear message and warning. I think this is brilliant feedback and assures us that our storyline is strong and we can make a potentially good film from it.
