audience feedback on treatment.


After performing the pitch with our proposed treatment to the audience we gained some vital constructive feedback. There was a few mainpositive points as well as negative, some things we needed to re-think and change. The following is the conclusion we have drawn from the feedback.

Positivepoints:
  • · The first positive point which we discovered was the fact that our short film idea is based on reality events. Many of the audience found this appealing and interesting to view as it creates a huge deal of awareness of the issue as well as how it can be prevented and tackled.This to us was a relief as it is the effect we initially intended and hoped to create.
  • · The second good point was the overall idea and concept of the film. The audience found the idea, concepts, themes and everything else appealing and quite unique to other films.

Constructive points:

  • · The initial reason for the female character leading on to the "honey trap killing" was due to college stress; however the audience found this as a weak aspect as it did not quite explain or define even the reason to why she would result to such an idea.
  • · The length was also an issue raised; will we be able to explain all the proposed events in the time frame of 5-6minutes?
  • · we also was approached by the fact that how exactly will we make it different compared to our inspiration of the similar film my murder and how exactly does it make us "unique".
  • The last issue was a location based one. Part of our filming was planned to be carried out on a bus although this was effective idea the issue regarding permission was raised and whether it would be granted. Particularly due to the fact that many bus drivers when approached by teenagers often are reluctant to give them time and at the same time discuss the issue as it can waste valuable time as well as distract them from their job. therefore this needed to be changed.
The second treatment which will produce as a group will detail these changes and this will be our final idea.
