I showed two people from my focus group, Rhea (aged 19) and Ryan (aged 18) my short film to get their reactions and for them to answer a few questions with constructive criticism and honesty. I let them watch it first with me not in the room and then went in and filmed them watching it again allowing them to pause it whenever they felt they wanted to discuss something they felt was important. I liked this way of doing it as they could openly talk about anything instead of being restricted to certain questions and they can talk about it as its happening rather than having to remember it all. The only problem with doing it like that is it might mean the more quiet shy people wouldn't talk and contribute as much but luckily for me my two people were happy enough to talk to me and the camera comfortably. It was interesting finding out what they thought of it as they are my intended audience that I was aiming for.
I'd edited it slightly and cut out some of what they said and noticed I missed out something that Rhea had said that was quite beneficial. She said that she could imagine my poster to be put in an independent cinema leaflet, for example for Cinema City or in a leaflet/booklet for advertising the independent and individual aspects of Norwich.
