General Questionnaire

I took a general questionnaire to explore the audiences veiws on film and music so that I can improve and think about my thriller opening. By taking this questionnaire I have now developed a helpful audience profile. It will help me when creating my opening as it means that I have more knowledge on the type of music and films people prefer and how to capture their attention when watching my thriller opening. The results show that different age ranges and genders influence peoples likes and dislikes. Below shows the questions I asked in my questionnaire.
                                                                                 

General Questionnaire.



1.)What film genre do you prefer?  

2.) What age bracket do you fall into?

3.) Do you buy films online?

4.) How often do you go to the cinema?

5.) Are you male or female?

6.)What is your favourite film?

7.)Who is your favourite actor?

8.) Do you own more than five  DVD's?

9.) What genre of music do you listen to most?

10.) What was the last film you saw?

 From completing this questionaire I found that the younger people I surveyed prefered rock and pop music and owned more DVD's and brought more films online. Whereas the older people I surveyed went to the cinema more and prefered more romantic and comedy films. I gave out my questionnaore to 15 people and received a variety of results, however I found similar results to those of similar ages. This could show that nowadays the media around us has changed and influenced us differently. I have learnt that when creating my film I need to take into consideration my target audience because if I dont refer to what they want to watch it wont appeal to them. This task has helped me to understand that I need to make sure my film will captivate my target audience. From these results I will develop this further into a specific questionnaire as well as a one to one interveiw.
