These are the results gathered from 18/18+ 10 responses that answered our Online Google Forms Questionnaire.
The results here convey what we were hoping; that the film could appeal to both genders because both genders are majoritively represented equally and encourage the audience to align and relate to each character. The fact that the audience agrees with us in that it could entertain both genders also encourages us that we have successfully reached out target demographic in terms of the writing process.
These results also confirmed what we we were hoping. A mature demographic with content appropriate for a BBFC rating of an 18 (swearing, bloody violence, etc. content seen in the film.)
90% of our audience understood the story of our film. The 10% was because we didn't go into enough detail in the plot synopsis in the questionnaire. We will therefore create a full and detailed story breakdown soon that is easier to understand for everyone.
In terms of genre, our audiences agreed with what we thought our films genre was: a hybrid of a horror and a thriller. We believe the people who did our questionnaire thought our film was this hybrid genre because it had the narrative features of both thriller and horrors (e.g Character focused narrative, small-scale, psychological and dark, open-ending.) Our audiences most watched genre were Dramas. This is what matches most statistics in terms of the most watched genre because all films, to some degree, contain some form of drama in them and blend with other genres so that it is difficult to distinguish.
Feedback
These are the responses we received form people who reread the synopsis of our film- providing answers to what they liked and didn't like about our film idea.
This positive feedback encouraged us to work harder and improve the film even further. Most audiences praised VIRAGO for its originality and ambiguous narrative and character's. We will be asking audiences this question again once we have a rough cut of the film and compare how their feedback differs.
From reading what improvements audiences suggested, we have taken on board all of the ideas and worked on a better development of characters and answering unanswered question through changes in the filming and editing of the film so far. We have furthered the dialogue in the script to provide the audience with more background information on the protagonists, as well as using symbolism in the filming process (e.g brief close-up of a gun- signifying how his wife died, a robin flying at the camera-connoting Edward's death at the end.)
