Short Film | 1 Minute Footage



Following up from my post about the test footage we captured during the Thursday morning of the city scenes in Exeter and the car scene in East Hill, Alex and I edited together a 1 minute sequence of the footage we captured on that day. This test footage would help us both realistically consider what the next stages of our filming could be as well as receiving critical feedback from our audiences on their thoughts about the footage we have got. 

Before we showed our footage, other audience members presented to us their 1 minute footage to us all as well.

Eventually, Alex and I presented the work we have to our secondary audience. We both knew that there was going to be some useful feedback we wanted to receive from our secondary audience, so I came prepared and decided to take a few notes down for what they had to say.

The list below shows a breakdown of the notes I took when we received the feedback from our secondary audience.


This exercise has really benefited Alex and me since we needed advice from our secondary audience about the aspects they enjoyed from the 1 minute sequence. Our primary audience would have similar tastes to both of us when we edit the final product together, however as I had discovered in the pitch which we delivered and the research I gathered in my slideshow about the importances of audience, it was necessary for us both to understand the tastes of our secondary audience if we want to distribute our product to multiple different audiences.
