Questionnaire results and analysis

2.  I asked 50 people my questionnaire, I wasn’t
in the r0om when the questions were
answered so that I didn’t influence any
answers.
 This questionnaire was important to do as it
allowed me to zoom in on my target audience
as well as getting to know my genre more.

3. Sales
1st Option
2nd Option
3rd Option
4th Option
5th Option
6th Option
 From the first question I can see that the majority of my audience would be in the
15-24 category, with another large portion being in the 25-34 category, this tells
me that my audience are of a younger generation. Seeing as I now know who my
audience is, it means I can include ideas that the older generation may not be
able to relate to but the younger generation will.

4. Gender
Option 1
Option 2
 From the answers to this question I can see that there was 21 females that
answered my questionnaire and 29 males that answered.

5 or more
Movies watched a week
 From question 3 I can see that the results of my questionnaire are likely to be
reliable, this is because 16 people watch 5 or more movies a week, so they know
what they want and what they look for when it comes to movies. 18 people
watch 3 or 4 movies a week, which is still a lot of movies on a weekly basis. Out of
the remaining people 16 people watch 1 or 2 movies a week, there was only one
person that said that they don’t watch any movies.

6. Favourite genre
Horror
Action
Romance
Comedy
Other
Thriller
 The results from question 4 tell me thatThrillers,Action and Horror are all
popular genres, this is good news as I was considering doing a thriller anyway,
these results tell me that it may be worth making my movie a thriller with an
action sub-genre.While romance and comedy are not so popular, this tells me
that I should stay clear of these categories as not as many people consider them
their favourites.

Have you ever
seen a thriller?
 I can see that most of the people I am asking have seen a thriller, this means that
they are not oblivious as to what I was asking them and they have an idea of what
belongs in a thriller. 35 people out of the 50 I asked said that they have seen a
thriller. 11 people had claimed that they had never seen a thriller in their life and 4
people were not sure if they had or not.This question helps me as I now know my
data is reliable.

8. Music in thrillers
Fast
Slow
Tense
Dark
Happy
Upbeat
 This question helps me to decide what type of music I should add in my movie
opening, from the results I can see that there is a range of different types of
music in the thriller genre.The music that the people answering seemed most
familiar with (when it comes to thrillers) are tense and slow. Music is important as
it can change the whole atmosphere of the movie and provide the audience with
different feelings than they previously had.

9. What part of the opening
credits are most important?
Setting the
story
An action
scene
setting the
mood
introduction
to
characters
Other
 This question will help me decide what
takes place in my opening scene, it will
help me as it shows me what people
expect and what they don’t expect from
an opening scene.As you can see from
the results people find setting the mood
most important in the opening Scene.
All of the options were all popular
choices, this means that everything is
quite important, it would be useful if I
could add a bit of everything.

10. When should opening credits be
displayed?
Before
During
After
No preference
 The answers to these questions show me that people all have different opinions
about when the opening credits should be displayed.There were close numbers
on before, during and after options, this tells me whichever option I choose I will
not please everybody.This allows me to choose freely and not pick which option
people want.
