There are a lot of types of audience feedback such as;
- Focus groups
- Audience panels
- Trialling and testing
- Reviews
- Complaints
- Questionnaire
Within my chosen media Film, there are only a few specific audience feedback methods that can be used. For example, reviews, focus groups and audience panels.
Reviews are when you examine or assess something. You write the good and bad points of something and your opinion. By writing a review, you possibly have the intention to institute change. Reviews are ideal when giving feedback for a film because they are more detailed than just a questionnaire and you also get the persons honest opinion.
A good example of where a focus group was successful was with the animated sitcom Family Guy. Firstly the Family Guy producers set up a focus group of women and showed them an episode of Family Guy. The feedback was negetive and they didn't enjoy the humour. The producers then set up a focus group of men and showed them an episode of Family Guy. The men thoroughly enjoyed it and gave positive feedback.
Focus groups are when a group of different people are gathered to discuss a product before it is released.

The men thoroughly enjoyed it and gave positive feedback. Men are the target audience for Family Guy and the focus groups feedback confirmed this.

I would review your second paragraph because all the types of audience feedback you mentioned above are all relevant film and this makes the second paragraph irrelevant. You need to find actual examples to discuss and where is your discussion on construction on content, selection of content and modes of address. Recap these on the presentations on the VLE because you MUST discuss these points to pass GC2
