Below is the overall feedback we received about improvements for our opening, we also paired the constructive criticism with the positive feedback to balance it out a bit more:

Feedback Sheets
Before the media showcase everyone in the audience was handed a feedback sheet for each of the media groups so that they could write down their thoughts on the projects. The sheet had the same 4 questions for all the groups:
- What did you understand about the narrative?
- Did the chosen genre fit its conventions?
- How did the 'ending' make you feel?
- Any suggestions for improvements, if we were to shot the whole thing again?
We gathered a lot of valuable feedback from these sheets which we presented in various ways to make it easier to read and analyse. These are a few examples of the sheets after people filled them out:

Feedback 4
Here is some feedback from Kira, Izabel and our media teacher Ms Foster. They admired the time-lapse, the audio and our actress Mehreen also got some compliments even though we are not marked for acting. We were also very pleased that our teacher picked up on our Macbeth reference from the bloody hands.

Lucy and Julia like the fact that it was very character driven, and they said the laughing made them feel uneasy...which was good!

Jade enjoyed the imagery and the friendship presented between the friends. She also had an excellent suggestion to have flashbacks from various locations instead of the same one.

Feedback After Showcase
After all the movie openings and music videos were finished we asked a few people from the audience about their thoughts of our project. Most of the feedback was fairly positive and the suggestions were also very useful.
This feedback is from Katie, Harriet and their star actor Ted. They touched on the audio throughout the clip as well as the blood on the hands which Ted realised was connected to 'Macbeth'!

Synopsis
We are going to show our final opening to the rest of the school on Monday. Before we play it we have to say a short brief about what our opening is about and how the plot would develop if it was to be made into a full film, this is what we are planning to say:
'Good afternoon, this is our opening Trapped. It is a psychological thriller about a girl that is in a mental institution. We chose the title 'Trapped' because it reflects her physical imprisonment within the asylum as well as her mental state as she suffers from flash backs. If it was to be made into a full length film it would follow how she mentally deteriorates after the death of her friend, this would also explain how she ended up in the asylum. Enjoy"
