What have you learned from your audience feedback?
To find out audience feedback, I created a small six question survey in which I asked a variety of questions from simple ones like gender and favourite colours, to what the audience looks for most when watching a children's opening television sequence. From the feedback received, I then went on to produce pie-charts showing the information I had acquired from carrying out these survey's, and you could clearly see which answers were the most popular, and which codes and conventions I should definitely not use when creating my project. I used these pie-charts to refer back to on a later date when it came down to creating my children's opening sequence, magazine and dvd cover; I considered things like the colours and my target audience so that it would work nicely and be an overall successful piece of work.
Other audience feedback included people commenting on my mock animation and how I could improve it to make it more exciting and eye-pleasing. Although it was only a mock animation, it helped a lot as it made me understand that I was capable of doing the more simpler things, and it made me realise that I could adapt my skills in Photoshop to help me create an exciting opening sequence.
All in all, I think audience feedback plays a massive part in creating a successful media product as it helps you understand where your target audience is coming from, and you learn to consider a whole lot more aspects than you would have originally. For example, things like constructive criticism on mock-up's that you've done can really help you in the end as it can help make a really strong and creative finished piece.
