Audiences For My Film - "I do?" on Prezi
Audience Responses
- I showed the opening 2 minutes of "I do?" to various audiences. This gave me an idea of both seeing if the film was enjoyable to a general audience but to also see if it was successful as a Romantic Comedy to specific audiences that would usually watch that type of film.
- I firstly showed my opening to students at Parkwood Sixth Form aged between 16 and 18. I found that males enjoyed the opening 2 minutes and were interested to see more of the rude gags similar to the few beginning to occur in the opening. Females were less amused by the jokes, but were still interested to see more. They also commented on the fact that it was set in Hastings and would look forward to seeing how it was portrayed later in the film as famous other Rom-Coms are set in larger cities or in America.
- I then showed my opening 2 minutes to a few married couples ranging between 28 - 32. They related to the rush and pressure of getting married that happens in the film and were also amused by the events that create the comedy. On a more serious side, they commented on the fact that some people do not realise the full commitments of marriage and rush into it too quickly, which I also had already noted at a previous stage that this is represented in my film. One couple said it was nice to see a Rom-Com being made in a different setting but on the other hand thought that the content of the comedy may be a bit immature for them.
- Out of those 2 age groups the males generally seemed more interested in the comedy in the film while females more interested in the Romantic side, the story line and the way Hastings was going to be portrayed in the film.
