Audience Feedback

I have gathered some feedback off a few people in order to find out what they thought of the film, and also to see if I have produced a film which reflects the aims of the film and my use of the genre conventions.


Naomi’s Choice feedback
Did you like the film?
Yes
Yes
Yes
 

Did you understand the narrative of the film?
Yes
Yes
Yes

Does the film create a sympathetic feeling towards Naomi?
In some parts, yes.
Only slightly-it shows that the outcome is more positive so I feel happier for her.
Yes

Are there any other emotions created in this film?
When she is holding her baby, it makes me feel happy for her, and also the drinking part is quite funny.
Yes, the quotes help to create feelings
Not really-it mainly focuses on her struggles and that makes me feel sorry for her.

What did you like about the film?
I think the use of quotes works really well-they help to tell the story.
The quotes are great, they relate to the whole story. I also liked the music at the end, it fits in really well with the narrative.
The music is really good, as are the quotes. I also like that her friend is always there to help her as well, I think it portrays a strong friendship as well as making your own choices.

What did you dislike about the film?
Sometimes the sound wasn’t very good, like the outdoor scene-I think the wind is quite loud.
I think there are a couple of confusing bits where you have to think about what you’ve seen to then understand what has happened.
Sometimes you can tell that the baby is a fake one, which isn’t really bad, but it is noticible.

How do you think this film could be improved?
By making sure the sound was better, and maybe using a couple of different angles.
Focusing on the sound, making sure it is all done correctly, and also making sure that the mise-en-scene is done correctly.
By making the sound a bit more clear, and possibly using less dissolves, I think would make it better.
