Hello all!!
my name is Darren and I am from New Zealand, I live about five minutes away from Hobbiton!! I have been a huge fan of all of Tolkiens work since I was young, my father read me 'The Hobbit' when I was 11, since then ive been hooked!! I have now taken the love a step further and 'The Hobbit: Desolation of Smaug' is the basis of my masters thesis. I am researching audience reactions to the 3D and HFR technologies showcased in DoS and how those techniques effect audiences engagement with the narrative. I do have an online questionnaire which I will provide the link to below so any kind souls can complete if they feel the need to!! Im looking foward to being apart of the community! All the best, Darren
