DD3992: Test Screening and Feedback

Recently I completed the first draft of my film 'Gopher Golf', without sound. I aim to have the first version with sound complete in one week's time but, for now, I was keen to test the film itself and find out if the animation and narrative both worked.

When I first showed the film to an audience, notable points from my feedback included:

• The Golfer wanting to buy a mansion needs to be set up at the beginning.
• Some timings need to be worked on.
• The golf post and the fences need re-scaling.
• The aspect ratio needed correcting.*
• The comedy was strong and the audience laughed at most of the jokes.
• The green screen and mix of 2D and stop-motion was very well received.

*Due to a computer problem I was not able to access Adobe Premiere Pro (my preferred editing software) whilst editing the first draft. I had to use an alternative which meant the aspect ratio was affected, but the feedback for the first draft was mostly positive regardless.
