Here we see a Year 12 class watching our rough cut. The dialogue tells us where we are in the cut and we can see their reactions. Afterwards we watched some discussion of the piece so far, focusing on understanding of the story. Last year, we took a similar approach to getting audience feedback and felt that it worked well. Not being there gave the Year 12s freedom to be critical without feeling rude. We were also able to tell our teacher what we wanted to know and let her guide the discussion. In some ways, this manipulates the feedback; but at the same time, we are aware that not all feedback is useful. For example, our teacher was able to move discussion on when it was getting to areas that weren't useful relevant for us. We did find out a lot from this, mainly that while some people seemed to understand the narrative easily, others were more confused. We need to make it clearer so that anyone can understand.
