Main Task - 7 - Focus Group

For our focus group, we decided to give out a questionnaire to our target audience and from that decide whether our film was good/whether it fit the requirements we had for our main task.
After giving a brief overview of the full synopsis and outline of the opening sequence, we gave a select amount of people in the target audience a set of questions.
Here is a link to our questionable: Google Document of Questionnaire

Our questionnaire was given to 10 people aged 15-20. Their responses were to each question:

1.    The majority agreed that the opening had an interesting plot, most thought that it was somewhat relatable to teenagers/those who would see the film and that the alien aspect seems positive. But others thought that the plot was lacking comedic aspects and therefore thought that it was not as interesting as they hoped.

2.    Most believed the film fit into the genre of comedy, however some thought that the alien aspect of the opening sequence made it more sci-fi.

3.    Most thought that they would like to see the film because they thought it was interesting and thought it would be amusing and they like comedy films.

4.    Only a few thought that it needed improving in the comedy aspect, this included possibly having slapstick comedy features such as people falling or being hurt.

5.     It was a half and half response, most thought that the alien made it interesting. Some thought on the other hand that it was not humorous enough and needed to be more comedic but nearly all thought it was engaging.

The responses meant that we were going to add more comedic aspects to the film, including the knocking over of the bag and changing the ending by having the student hitting the other in a comedic nature .This meant that the film would attain the comedic genre we originally had it as.
