1. the lighting should be brighter Tue, Feb 15, 2011 1:48 AM Find... 2. You could make then sound clearer and perhaps tweak the ending, i think the 8 months before could stay on the screen longer. The V-DAY productions could be more professional in terms of font and layout...i don't think it needs to fill the screen. Tue, Feb 15, 2011 1:30 AM Find... 3. you could use different dialogue when they are behind the curtain because it seems a bit to violent for a dance film. Tue, Feb 15, 2011 1:21 AM Find... 4. I think that you could improve the actual scene where the dialogue begins and finishes. Tue, Feb 15, 2011 1:20 AM Find... 5. I think you show too much of each character dancing when introducing them but other than that it was good. Tue, Feb 15, 2011 1:15 AM Find... 6. cut out vikkies laugh its pointless when shes runnning up the stairs Tue, Feb 15, 2011 1:15 AM Find... 7. and could make the storyline of the film more clear within the opening Tue, Feb 15, 2011 1:13 AM Find... 8.

Tue, Feb 15, 2011 1:15 AM Find... 7. purely as it is not my sort of film, but if i was into that genre i believe i would continue watching it because the footage was good (: (: (: O_o Tue, Feb 15, 2011 1:15 AM Find... 8. because it hooked me in and i wanted to see what happened 8 months before :) Tue, Feb 15, 2011 1:15 AM Find... 9. i want to know how they got to where they were Tue, Feb 15, 2011 1:13 AM Find... 10. i didnt like vikki dancing!!

To summarise these results, 10 out of 12 people think our opening is appropriate for the Dance film genre. the majority of people think our film is good and gave it a 7 or above. Some of the answers they gave were that it looked professional; it flowed well ; it stuck to the conventions and the storyline was good. For the target audience question, 9 out of 11 people got the audience right; which is teenage girl. It stuck to conventions as we used similar transitions, we had a range of dance and the story line was strong. Most people got the challenged conventions right as they said we involved ore male dancers than women, we had the characters have a dark background with each other and we used more swearing than you would see. People gave some suggestions on improvement. They said we could edit the titles some more to make them look more professional, we could edit some of the sound because it's un clear and some of the footage is jumpy. We can't change the footage as we have no more time to shoot new scenes. Overall, 7 out of 12 people would like to carry on watching the film after seeing this opening sequence. The people who said they wouldn't aid this as they don't particularly like dance films.
