Gender
The information that I
gained from my first
question on my
12 questionnaire is that
10 the majority of people
8 I asked where male so
6
this means that the
majority of the
4
answers that I have
2 are from the male
0 gender. This may
Male Female
have a slight effect on
my overall results.
From this you
Employment
can see that the
main type of
10
people that I
asked the
8 question too
where full time
6 workers so this
4
means that they
where of an
2 older age, this
could have an
0 effect on my
Full time work Full time work Unemployed Part time work
findings
because of the
fact that they may not have a lot of time for documentaries because they are at work
or may have extra work to do at home so this could mean I get a bias result.
As you can see from
Age this bar graph the
majority of people that
8 filled out my
7
questionnaire where
either between the ages
6
of 16-19 or 20-23 so
5
this will defiantly have
4
a big effect on the
3
answers that I get of
2 what kind of
1 documentaries they like
0 to watch.
12-15 16-19 20-23 24-30 31-35 36-40+

I asked the question
Do you watch documentaries? whether they watch
documentaries or not
this gave me the
answer that 12 out 16
14 of the random public
12 actually do this means
10 that I am asking the
8 right type of people
6 and these people
4 could possibly be my
2 target audience so this
0 means that I will have
Yes No to pay attention to
what they say about
documentaries and what kinds they like so that I can get a better understanding of
what my target audience like.
Why do you watch them? This is one of
the main
questions that I
11
asked because
the information
that it gives if
10.5 handled properly
can make the
10 difference
between getting
9.5 the audience I
Knowledge Leisure want or not have
a big audience at
all. It basically says that the majority of people that watch documentaries watch them
for knowledge so to learn something new where as only a quarter of these people
watched them for leisure this means that I will have to make my documentary
something that teaches and informs the viewer but to get an even bigger audience I
could make it leisure based at the same time so it’s nice to watch but you’re also
being informed about the topic.
What kind of documentaries do you watch? After a decent bit of
explaining to the person
10 answering these questions I
9 gained the information that
8
7 the main people that watch
6 documentaries watch
5 participatory so this means if
4
3
I want to get the most out of
2 my audience I will have to
1 make it a participatory
0
Poetic Observational Participatory Reflexive Performative Expository documentary, by doing this
3. Liam Gilmartin
my audience will feel like they are more involved with the documentary instead of
watching something that they aren’t really interested in.
