Reflection on Focus group
From The Focus group, I discovered that the viewers of my documentary were quite surprised by the lack of support some students had from their schools about being LGBT. 

The group liked that the dsfs felt like they could be honest about their experiences in such a formal way and also show how they are getting support now from their friends and colleges.

The group felt like I could split up the interviews, either making them shorter or adding some b-reel footage in the middle of them as they felt too long in terms of other parts of the documentary.
