Feedback

When my animation was finished, I chose to show it to a group of children ranging from 8-11, this was so that I can get some personal feedback from children to know whether I could make my film for this age group or not. I created some simple questionnaires for each child to fill out so I can find out their personal thoughts of the film and how it could possibly be changed for better results.

Questions and results:

1. What do you think of the opening to the film?
This was the first question so that I can gain and understanding on what they thought of the film. I received a range of feedbacks from the range of children, most of the feedback was positive, saying how much they loved the idea and such, a few odd ones here and there said that they didn’t really understand it, meaning that I could possibly explain it better.

2. Would you like to see this film continued?
This was to find out whether the film drew the audience in or not, if not I would need to change it so that it would. However, all the feedback was ‘yes’, meaning that it was successful in drawing the audience in and wanting to see more.

3. Does the film appeal to you or your age group?
The majority of this feedback was positive as most of the children selected ‘yes’, whereas a few others selected ‘no’. This helps me with the decision on what age group I can fit my film for. From this, I have come to the decision that my film will be from the age of 8+.

4. What score would you give it? (1= bad, 5= excellent)
With this question, I asked the children this so I can gain an understanding, overall of what they thought and what score they would give it. 9/10 of them gave a ‘4’, which represented very good. And 1/10, gave it ‘5’ which represented excellent.

This means that the film opening was a success and that I have obviously done a good thing by receiving all these positive points. This all means that my film opening is a success and possibly means that my film would probably be very good towards a bigger audience.
