1. Audience research

The audience expectations of Independent/mainstream films

Looking at the two video clips, which one would you say is the independent film?

1. Gender: Female
Age: 19
Answer: The first clip

2. Gender: Male
Age: 17
Answer: The first clip

What do you like/dislike about the difference in the mainstream and independent film clips?

1. Gender: Male
Age: 44
Answer: I like that in the independent film everything is done as it is seen so it looks authentic. There are no special effects like in the mainstream film.

2.Gender: Female
Age: 16
Answer: I like the effects in the mainstream film because it gives a suspense however it doesn't look realistic like the independent film.

If you went to the cinema to watch London to Brighton thinking it was a mainstream film. Would you be dissapointed?

1. Gender: Female
Age: 22
Answer: Yes, i think so. I'd be expecting much more glamorous locations and more surreal action.

2. Gender: Male
Age: 18
Answer: Yes, deffinatley. If i paid to go and see a mainstream film I'd be expecting to see some well known actors/actresses.

  1. Well done - this was a good way of identifying audience expectations of mainstream/independent - though Kill Bill is strictly independent. You need to write up the responses and say how they will influence your own film.
