The main reason we selected to show the video to 3 boys and 3 girls who had no biased view upon our video was that we get a chance to see what two different sexes thought of the video. The most intrueging difference in scores were mainly on Question 4 "How violent was it" with 62% of the overall score of 29 coming from the males. It appears that the male audiance is more indulged into the world of violance and anything they see linked with it is immediatly violent. The females weren't that bothered with it and thought it to be mundane if anything however the male reaction to those scenes were more enthusiastic.
Upon showing the video to my male friends they all went hyper when the fight at the end came on and found the punch extremely entertaining picking up on the violent sections mainly, some saw the artistic aspects. However when shown the the female audiance they picked up more on the overall story and seemed to understand why the violence was included rather then just knowing violence was included.
For example, when the video was posted onto Facebook for feedback the comments posted by the males consisted were "That slap was epic!" and "Cut the last minute? joke!" as well as "I like how.. got clapped!". All the comments by the males were focused upon the violence. However both males and females enjoyed the video and the "Like" ratio is rather balanced. Despite this the comments by the females were different with one stating "You guys have done a really good job" as well as "proud of your editing" and "this is rather brilliant!". The fact the females focused on the techinal aspects and overall video rather than the acts of violence shown was finally understandable after the questionaire results had come through and the reasoning behind the reasons both sexes enjoyed the video became understandable.
