Listening Party

During the production process we got an amazing oppurtunity for some feedback. We held a listening party with a large group of students and they were asked to give an honest evaluation of our radio drama. The general feedback from the students that we recieved was that they thoroughly enjoyed our work. We asked them to rate it out of 10 with 1 being the worst and 10 being the best, the majority gave us a 7/8 out of 10. The response we got as a group was that they loved our ideas and really connected with the piece, and felt that it was realistic. However, we also gained some constructive criticism from the listening party. The main negative response we got was that perhaps the acting could have been that of a more higher standard! We also had comments over Nick's scottish accent, and some individuals found it slightly comedic. This was not our aim at all, as this didn't compliment our genre one bit. However, we felt we justified this critique, We used this accent to show the diversity within the different characters. We felt his strong accent also came him some dominance which is what we were aiming for in the start of the narrative. Overall, we recieved mainly positive feedback and the majority liked our radio drama and would listen to more of it.
