Focus Group (Audience Research 1)




  • What do you think is the most important component in a short documentary film?*
  • Is the message clear? What message did you get?
  • What do you think about the actions of each main character? Do you agree with them?
  • What had the biggest impact on you in this documentary?
  • What aspects of the documentary should be changed/any improvements?
  • Does a slower pace help you understand what is going on?
  • What do you think of reckless driving?
  • What attracts people to stunt driving?
  • Why do you think this problem is especially prevalent in Qatar? Why do people drive recklessly even when they know it is unsafe?
  • What do you think is effective and why - music, characters, camerawork and editing, story, etc.
  • Would you prefer a focus on interviews or a focus on action?*

I wrote most of these questions, with a few occasional assistances from Sanaz.
I set up the camera and also interviewed the subjects, Sanaz held the mic up which proved to be especially tiring. Jack pressed the record button and edited the video.
