What have you learned from you audience feedback?

The documentary we made had no target audience, we done this because we believed that football is for everyone. I personally know this because I am a Brighton season ticket holder and all ages go to games, this was the main reason we had no target audience.

There is also the gender factor of football I currently know that there is a men’s and woman’s football team; this shows that football is watched by anyone. It is really good that we can attract a wide mass audience, and I believe we have done that throughout. However the main target audience gender wise is men as they have widely interested in the footballing world.

The footage we took is suitable for all age groups as well; there is no swearing or disobedient images. This would be a problem for the younger target audiences if this was in our documentary because they wouldn’t be able to watch it and that’s way we wouldn’t hit our mass target audience expectation.

Before making the documentary I made a questionnaire which is on my blog. We sent them out to find out what the public wanted/like to see in a documentary. We got good feedback and used it when planning the documentary. The questionnaire was very helpful because when we first thought of the idea of doing a stadium watch documentary we wasn’t 100% sure if it would work so be giving out them we found out that the public thought it was a really good idea; this confirmed we would do a documentary of The Amex stadium.

We created a version one of the documentary and decided to post it on YouTube so people from all over the world could see what they thought; it also allowed them to see the documentary for free. However we made the YouTube link private, this means the only people that have the link can see the documentary. This was done so if there was any mistakes we could quickly change them before embarrassing our self’s be making a big mistake, that way the documentary will not get bad views.

The public that got private linked were college students at our school Hove Park; they gave us feedback that was helpful. We then decided to see what everyone thought and made the video public. Within the first week we had 170 views around 3 comments and 2 likes/No dislikes. This shows that we must have made a good documentary that was interesting for everyone. All feedback was mostly positive below is a screenshot of what the comments said:
