What Have You Learned From Your Audience Feedback?
Natalee Bailey
Why is Audience Feedback Important?
Audience feedback is important, you are aiming for a specific demographic group so want to ensure they would like your product. As well as this, consider watching your film themselves.
Audience feedback would help me understand my target audience better and what they would like to see in my media product.
Questionnaires
After I finished my final draft for my teaser trailer, poster and magazine I created a questionnaire. Questionnaires are a useful way of collecting feedback because you can use open and closed questions depending on the answer you would like.
These are the main topics I included in my questionnaire? • The conventions of my trailer• Whether they follow the conventions of horror
trailers• The colours used for my poster/magazine• Fonts and layout of magazine and film poster • The sound and lighting in my teaser trailer• Rating my products out of ten
This is my questionnaire
Technology
Nowadays in the media industry collecting data and information is carried out using technology and social networking.
Using technology is more efficient and effective in the media industry as it is quicker to process and gather information to a mass audience, as well as this, the results or data collected can be stored easily on a drive, database or computer.
I decided to use social networking to receive audience feedback as well as questionnaires so I could send questions to my friends and family about my products no matter where they are and receive a reply within hours.
What did they say?
After reading the audience feedback I learnt that my products were good and appealing to my target audience but a few tweaks were necessary, I have used the typical conventions of horrors in all my products, as well as the sound and lighting associated with that genre.

So has it helped me?
At the beginning of my coursework, I had a brief idea of what I wanted in my film poster, film magazine and teaser trailer for my target audience as I am within the age bracket, but it is essential to get ideas and feedback from other people so I could have a commercially successful product on a whole. Gaining feedback from other people is useful because they may see a minor error that you may have overlooked, for example a spelling mistake or
font size.
