Focus group video feedback

Initial idea one: Why do people have animal phobia?

In this video I pitched my first initial idea which was 'why do people  have animal phobia'. As someone who is always scared of animals especially dogs I decided doing a documentary on phobias would be interesting. I received good feedback which helped me in improving my ideas and also helped me decide weather this topic was actually a good idea. From the feedback I received this was a good documentary idea however I feel it would be hard to present someone with a phobia infront of their phobia, as this may have a negative affect. This being my main limitation may cause problems for my documentary.

Initial idea two: How insomnia affects your daily life?

In this video I pitched my second  initial idea which was 'how insomnia affects your daily life'. I felt this topic would be interesting to document as I am also someone who suffers from insomnia and being able to discuss how I personally feel would allow me to portray to my audience that some peoples daily lives are more affected than others. I personally feel that my target audience are not really aware of what insomnia actually is. The feedback I received allowed me to think about how I could potentially make my documentary. It allowed me to think about how I could make the documentary more interesting by doing a vlog and showing how myself and a friend suffering from insomnia both react at different times of the day.

Initial idea three: Why do I have stress?

In this video I pitched my third and final initial idea which was 'Why do I have stress'. As someone who gets stressed really quickly I deciding doing a documentary on myself and why I get stressed would be an interesting documentary. This documentary could also help me improve my stress levels and help me deal with stress. The feedback allowed me to think of other ideas such as doing a vlog on when I feel stressed as it will add a realism to the documentary. Another idea suggested was doing a 'before and after' and showing how it helped or did not help me through the process. After receiving the feedback and suggestions on how I could improve my documentary idea I feel this topic idea is the best one out of the three. I have decided to make this my final choice as I have received good feedback and good suggestions which I could potentially use when doing my documentary.
