We had a focus group based on our radio drama, which was very gender biased considering there was about 20 males compared to four women as we couldnt assess our own drama. We were dreading the review as our radio drama is taregted at a female audience so we thought our drama would get very bad reviews considering it wouldnt be a males taste.
The results come back that infact our Radio Drama got the best and most results with the majority marking the overall drama 9/10! and in fact was the most liked compared to everyone elses drama which was extremely good considering the focus group being very biased.
Many of the reviews thought that it was very funny which i was mostly proud of as i thought that many people would not like the humour or find it funny than our own group. There were comments to improve our drama and that was in scene one, theres a few lines quieter than they should be and the breaks inbewteen the scenes are too long. So we are going to shorten them down also there was a suggestion that as Vivienne is being played by a males voice, as a part of panto style and that Vivienne can be a males name, and in the fashion world there are many male designers with very different names.
Vivienenne then would play a male character and a twist to the story that laurens boyfreind Chris is seeing Vvienne which makes him gay, so we have also shown topics of sexuality in to our drama which also adds more drama. other people disagreed as the male voice representing Vivienne as a female character added to the comedy value being ‘panto’ style, Vivienne’s dialogue got the most laughs and positive response from our audience.
i believe that the peer review is a good thing as it helps our group improve our drama on the things that are lacking which will improve our grades and create a great Radio Drama.
