3- What have you learned from your audience feedback?

From our audience feedback, we have learnt that people found it hard at the beginning to understand weather the mockumentary was supposed to be real or believable. They didn’t necessarily understand what was going on and they found this a little confusing. They said that the title cards helped with this, yet these title cards were hard to see as the writing was quite small.

"I LIKED THE WAY IT CHANGED IN THE MIDDLE"

None of the focus group said they had witnessed this kind of situation themselves and they didn’t realize that it was such an issue among teenagers and they thought that this mockumentary helped them and would help other people to realize the dangers. The majority of the focus group were aged between 17 and 18 but we had one teacher, this pretty much matcyhed our target audience.

Charlotte’s character reminded a lot of the focus group of an American teenager which made them feel like our mockumentary was similar to an American teen movie.

The focus group didn’t say that they wanted to know what happened later on, as they didn’t feel that there was a later on.

"NOT VERY REALISTIC BUT IT MADE SENSE WITHIN THE GIVEN GENRE"

The last question, people had a mixed feeling about. Some said that if a drug results in death then it isn’t for a good or legit reason and therefore it is just as bad as other drugs.

On the whole people enjoyed our film and were impressed with it, they thought that more time would have resulted in maybe a better production but the enjoyed it.

"IT WAS VERY INFORMATIVE"

In general comments, people said that it looked like a real documentary and was very professional looking.
