What have you learnt from your audience feedback?
I have used the internet in different ways to gather feedback from my tagret audience on what they did and did not like about my opening sequence and what can be changed. An example of how i have done this that i have posted the link to my blog on to facebook and twitter etc to see what people think of my opening sequence so they can either leave a comment on my blog or on a facebook status letting me know what they think. Using the social networks such as facebook and twitter in this way was an easy and fast way to gather the information for lots of different people.
These comments below show that from what i have done in my media so far fits in which the 'norm' and means that if it was to be a real opening sequence people would watch it. It also allows me to see where i need to improve futher. These comments helped me to see that the colour scheme was appropriate and also that it will appeal to my target audience.
Another way that i gathered audience feedback was through a focus groups, this means that i have interviewed ten children in the age bracked of my target audience, which was 6-13 year olds and filmed the all asking the same questions. here is an example:
From asking my focus group these questions i have learnt alot, they have all said that my products is similar to other products around today and the childrens tv show that was mentioned was Zak and Cody, which has made me very happy as this is one of the shows that i had evaluted and looked up to when making School Daze. I have also learnt that not all children will see things in the same was as i have but through the use of mise-en-scene an idea was created that helped me to create the characters identitys. An example of this is that the majority of children i had interviewed did not find it funny that Razzle had paper thrown back at him they would have rather seen him act in a funny way, but from the previous scenes of him acting silly or dumb at the start not knowing when to go to lesson have already created the idea that he was a type of class clown, or 'the funny one.' All of my focus groups had said that they liked hearing the theme tune and that it had drawn them in to wanting to watch the tv show, as it was fun and bubbley. This has taught me that the conventions, such as setting, mise en scene, sound and editing is very important and not all of the audience ay have been passive and understood my prefered reading, but thanks to the setting etc, they did.
The final way that i gathered the information i needed to learn about what the audience thought of my peice was through creating a survey monkey, which was also posted through facebook and twitter to make sure that lots of people took part and filled it in.
Overall i feel that my products have met the needs of the target audience well. In every way that i have gathered information everyone has said they they have enjoyed/liked my products. There are a few weaknesses that could be improved to make my products more appealing for the younger children, but i am very happy with how i have analysed simliar products and found out that the use of bright colours draws people in, and using this in my product has worked to my advantage as this is what made my DVD, magazine and opening sequence link togther and appeal to children to look lots of fun. I feel i have produced a high quality products that links in with my DVD and magazine front cover.

Create your free online surveys with SurveyMonkey, the world's leading questionnaire tool.
This survey had shown me that my audience thought that my DVD, magazine and opening sequence went well togther and that the main strengths of my peice was the colours, the theme tune and the bubblyness of the charaters. Where as the main weakness and thing that would have liked to of been changed was that the editing didnt show the names of the characters as big as people may have liked. I beleieve this is a very good point as it would have helped created a personal identity more for the characters but the fact that each character had a seperate colour was good for the editing as it showed them all as individuals.
