My group found that it was necessary to have this type of feedback collated throughout the process of creating the film because we wanted to make the production and distribution stages as successful as possible for the end product and taking on board constructive criticism is very important because we wanted to edit the film and different products to please the target audience.  There are many ways that can be used in order to collate this sort of data from an...
