Evaluation Question 3

I was very happy with the feedback I received from my questionnaires after showcasing my work to a number of people who had not viewed it before. For my first question I mainly received the answer "I really liked the smoothness of the images" This pleased me in so many ways as I had tried my hardest to create a smooth flowing video. These may have been slightly predictable answers but as I had never shown this or attempted this in any way before I was not sure. 
For my second question I asked.. 'Do you think the different types of camera angles I included in this (that are not usually seen in stop frame animation) were successful?' 
I was very happy with the results of this answer from somebody, as they said "It is quite enthralling how you have used some shots that would be seen in video footage, in an animation of images." This answer surprised me but in a very pleasant way. 
My third question was 'Do you think the visuals matched the lyrics in a suitable way?' With this being a simple tick box answer I knew I would be able to get a percentage of the answers which would be helpful. The returns showed that 22 people out of 24 all ticked yes to this, which I thought was expected but still nice to see as I had worked hard to link my visuals to my lyrics with the use of Photoshop and other programs. 
My fourth question I wanted to find out a little more from what they really thought, so I left a comment box so the audience could really expand on their answers. I asked 'Was the use of a toy car a suitable object to use for my animation?' Some people simply replied just the answer 'yes' but others really expanded on their thoughts, and in one answer particular the audience replied, 'I thought the use of a small toy car was a simple but effective way of your clear relevance to travel throughout the whole of your work, all starting from the links between the lyrics; it has been seen before but you have given a different take on it that I really like.' 
Finally, my fifth question was a tick box, as this was a simple way of getting an answer from the audience. I asked, 'Did you feel drawn into the storyline of the video?' And again a very pleasing 20 out of 24 people replied 'Yes'.
