Film Screening- Featurette first or film first?
- Thread starter kazizaman

I would recommend the featurette first. The audience should have the main feature film resonating in their minds after it is over. If a featurette is directly after the film, it messes with that concept.
Think of it like a chunk of previews. If the previews for other films are after the feature, the viewer will remember more about the previews and less about the feature film than if the featurette is first, then the feature. I hope that helps!

i have the opposite opinion. i don't care what is happening in the featurette unless i have a frame of reference. that frame of reference is best established with the film.
it depends on the length though. if the featurette is better than the film, show that first. i think it would be better hook people in right away rather than to hope they stay interested till the end.

Absolutely hate it when people do that!!!! Grrr... :-/ Then there is hardly no context for the replies when you read them :-( Which is such a waste too for those people who put their time in to reply.
