LO4: Group Screening + Feedback

Here we gathered a group of people of varying ages to watch out short film.

I asked the group what they thought of our short film. Below are some of the comments made.

 

"I liked the ending, it was very mysterious."
 

"The picture quality was superb."
 

"I didn't see that coming."
 

"The backing music set the mood well." 
 

"That guy had a very convincing American accent."
 

"I thought it was well made."

"Quite dark."
 

The feedback given was very positive. We feel that our film was a success.

I also asked the group what they though the BBFC classification for the short film should be.

The results were:

3 votes for a rating of 12
1 vote for a rating of 15
1 vote for a rating of PG

I then asked them to state their reasons.

Comments made:

Rated 12 because:
"There are obvious implications of drug use and gambling"

Rated 15 because:
"The mood and tone of the film feels quite dark so I'd say a 15."

Rated PG because:
"I don't think its that high because its all implied and its not been promoted."

based on these results it seems that a 12 rating is the most suitable rating. Against BBFC criteria this is a realistic classification.
