Audience Feedback

During a lesson, the class watched each others trailers and gave everyone certain feedback on what they could improve and what worked well. The table below shows all the feedback I recieved, in which I was very happy with:

Comment on:	Feedback:
Is there a variety of shot types?	Yes. Followed conventions really well. Some shots were not held steady or for long enough.
Are the shot types conventional of the genre? BCU, 2 shot, SRS, low angle etc for soap.	Lots of CU and SRS, typical of soap conventions. HA shot worked really well, made him seem helpless.
Editing: is it clear what is happening? Does the editing tell you how to feel, e.g. fast paced editing for excitement, tension, slow-mo for suspense. Do title cards match the brand identity of the institution broadcasting the soap? Is branding for the soap distinctive?	Storyline is clear. Audience is quickly aware it is a parody. Music tells the story. Title cards match e4 brand identity. Branding is distinctive, can see resemblance to inspiration of ‘Hollyoaks’. Relationships are established quickly.
Sound: can you hear all the dialogue clearly? Are sounds levels equal throughout? Does non-diegetic soundtrack match the action and add to the narrative? Does non-diegetic soundtrack meet conventions in terms of what will attract the audience? (Audience research)	Most dialogue is heard clearly. Some is overpowered by the music- more ducking needed in places. Soundtrack matches storyline- slow so tells audience how to feel. Contrasts with parody genre. Soundtrack- Katy Perry. Young artist that the audience are familiar with.
Narratives and storylines: are they believable? Are they conventional? Do they use, develop, challenge?	Storylines are over-acted but typical of a parody genre. Storylines and shot types are conventional. They use, develop and challenge although a slap is needed during fight scene.
