focus group responses and evaluation :)

These are the responses from my focus groups, i found them really interesting as there were many differences and similarities between the three. I was particularly intrigued by the references they made to their own personal experiences as some of these corresponded to the events within the three films. The responses differed when comparing representations of masculinity in the films as the three men had some opposing views. However, the stereotypical masculine qualities that i asked them to list were all quite similar. This proves that there is a certian aspect of masculinity that people are aware of but this is not necessarily reflected through film, personal past experiences or present day life. The feedback that i retrieved from watching the three film clips was also quite interesting because each person saw something different being portrayed that they believed was essentially most impotant. I think that altogether the focus group worked well and was successful with the age group it was aimed at.
