Audience feedback

 Feedback on first draft: The students i told to give me feedback was Afsarah, Zayna and Areeba.

The questions i asked were: 

Is our voices loud enough?

What do you think about the radio drama?

Is there anything else that we can add to the radio drama?

Do you understand what the radio drama is about, if so which part and why?

What do you think about the characters in the radio drama?

Afsarah said that our voices were alright but there are times where our voices would go softer or louder, which would be annoying since the audience would need to keep changing the volume and it would get frustrating. She also said that it was fuzzy and that it sounds like white noise making the audio unclear. She suggested that we should have more enthusiasm in our words and that the recording should be done in a soundproof room, also check if there is audio by doing a soundcheck. Afsarah said that the characters were quite bland at least something to remember that they’re an actual person. She thinks more reactions are needed to make it more believable, for example when you question certain things in your mind It makes more sense but if you just say it, it feels and looks unbelievable that you’re saying something. I think questioning things whilst “thinking” of something gives you a better advantage to make it believable.

Areeba said that she could understand the radio show and what it is about. The voices in the first half was really quiet and she needed to put her phone next to her ear to hear it, but in the second half the voices was really loud so she said that it should be the same volume throughout the whole radio drama. That it should be at a moderate level of volume unless it needs to be louder or quieter for a particular reason. She also agreed with Afsarah by saying that even though Simona's acting wasn't bad , but she should put emotion into her words since it's a radio drama the audience cannot see the actors/characters expression because it's only sound with no other visual aspects.

Zayna also talked about the volume problems. Zayna basically said the same thing as Afsarah and Areeba about Simona's acting and also that everything sounded out of place because she even though she kind of understood the story it was still a little bit confusing and how everything is monotone and boring. She said she struggled watching all of it because there was nothing interesting for her to carry on.
