Doubt

Doubt

As a group, we were given a genre of film that we had to make a film out of. Ours was family drama. We had to create a film that suits the genre well and that people would want to watch. We had to make it unique and with a suitable cast, title and narrative. Once we had come up with our film, we presented it to the class in this PowerPoint presentation.

Feedback

We were given feedback on our film to show us what the good qualities were and what we could improve on to make the film more suitable for the genre and appealing to the audience. On average, our title was given an 8/10 and people said that it was effective but could be more interesting. Our title was 'Doubt' which implies the drama that will be in the film but, because it is only one word, is not a very unique. The audience gave our chosen cast a rating of 8/10. It is appropriate and people liked the choice of characters because they were suitable and have played other past roles well. They also said the film is interesting because there are 8 children. Although some of the audience thought the film may become a bit confusing because there are so many children to keep track of when watching the film. The audience said our narrative was suitable for the target audience and it was given a 7/10. Our plot is unique and attracts the audience. We chose to have the BBFC certificate as a 12A which most people agreed with. We were also given a 7/10 for how well our narrative fits the genre. The audience said that it shows the darker parts of a drama well and definately suits the family genre because it is based around a big family with 8 children. For our film being different, we had quite mixed feedback. We were given an average of 8/10, with the highest rating being 9/10 and the lowest being 4/10. Some people thought it was very unique whilst others thought it was the same as other films from that genre. I think we were given good feedback and am happy with the results. We scored quite high in most of the areas. Although the audience only gave us a 1/10 for our marketing ideas. We did not have any interesting marketing ideas apart from film posters. I agree with this feedback and think this is the main area we would improve on if we were to promote a film again.
