2. In my group, Issy and I produced a
questionnaire to hand out to 30 people in our
target audience range. This was to collect
some information for our documentary. We
asked various questions which would help us
get to know what our target range are
interested in, like and dislike.

As we asked our target audience we asked people between the
age of 16-30. 18 People we asked were 16-18, 5 were 19-21, 3
people were 22-25, 2 were aged 26-30 and only 2 were 30+.
This is so we had a variation of different answers from
different age ranges in our target audience.

We asked 22 females and 8 males. We tried to
get as much of a varied response as possible
so we asked as many males who were willing
to answer a questionnaire on makeup.

We left this question with an open answer so
received a variation of answers. We asked
this question so we could get an idea about
what colours people like for certain graphics
etc.
6. No

23 people who answered our questionnaire said that they do
wear makeup and 7 said no. This was a good response
because it was interesting to see what people who don't wear
makeup thought about makeup. This gave us some
interesting answering to consider in our documentary.
7. 17%

Never
23%
43% said that they wear makeup everyday, 23% say
weekends, 17% said rare occasions and 17% said never. This
showed us that the majority do depend on makeup therefore
it would be useful to have an interview with somebody who
depends on makeup and to see the view from others on
people who depend on makeup?
8. I don't

This was also an open ended question with no options and we received an
interesting mix of answers. 7 people said they wear makeup to look
better, 3 said to feel better, 3 people said to look more awake, 3 said to
look healthier, we also had people say they use it to look prettier, 1 said
to look cool, 6 people said to cover spots and 5 said they don't wear
makeup. This was interesting that we had people say they wear it to
look healthier because we could then look into the medical problems
and how people can achieve the healthy look without makeup in our
documentary.

Dont Mind I dont like it
We asked this question as we wanted to interview males wearing makeup
and drag queens. This would let us know what the general public think on
this matter and whether we would get a good response from including this
subject in our documentary. 23 people answered yes, they don't mind
males wearing makeup, and 7 answered with, that they don't like or agree
with males wearing makeup. This gives us an option to look at the
changing trends of men and how their feminism in males has increased
over the years.

With Without
This question will allow us to provide some evidence on the
popularity of makeup. This backs up what people think of
makeup in our society today and will determine some
questions we will ask in our interviews. 52% said they prefer
women with makeup, and 48% said they prefer women
without makeup. From this we decided to conduct an
interview with somebody against makeup for various reasons
whether it be cultural, religion or animal testing on makeup.

Just when I need it
0% said that they buy makeup weekly, which shows that
makeup is not a casual thing to buy. 7 people said monthly
and 23 people said that they buy makeup when they need it.
This shows that for most of the people who filled in our
questionnaire makeup is a thing they do need but don't
have a passion for it unlike some makeup artists who we will
interview and explore their passion towards makeup and
what made them choose makeup as a career.

This was a question with no options so we had a variation of
answers. 13 people said that spend between £5-£20. 6 people
said between £30-£40 and 2 people said they can spend on to
£60. This shows the variation of makeup amongst brands. We
will use this information in our documentary when we look at
whether the more expensive brands are really better for us.

We asked this question so we would know which brand is most popular and which makeup
brand would be the most interesting to our target audience to interview for our
documentary. This was also an open answer question and we received a variation of
familiar brands which people liked the most. The brand which was the most popular
was M.A.C Cosmetics with 11 people saying this was their favourite. Benefit and Bobbi
Brown had 5 people each saying they favour this brand. This is interesting because the
most popular brands are the most expensive ones which makes me think that the more
expensive ones are more popular because they actually are better. I will explore this in
my documentary with an interview with a makeup artist comparing different makeup's.
3 people said they favour Loreal and Barry M each and 1 person said they like Max
Factor. Two people said the like the brand Illamasqua, this is a more expensive brand.

We wanted to see the variation between how long people take to get ready daily
and on a night out. This could be something to look at, how people almost
change their identity through makeup for different occasions.

This question was so that we could have an idea
which songs are popular at the moment to use in
our cutaways of our documentary. We had a
large variation of answers but the favourite was
Juice FM. This is a local radio station which we
are familiar with the current songs so ill know
which ones to use in our Documentary.

This was an open answered question so meant that we had a variation of answers. Lots of
people answered with their item of makeup they could not live without which we were
able to put into a graph. When they answered why, we had a variation of answers but the
most common answer was because that was their feature which needed makeup. So
people who answered mascara said this was because their eyelashes were short so
needed mascara, or if someone answered foundation it was because their skin was bad
and they needed this. From this question we have information to create an interview
with a doctor to discover why people were makeup and what they can do to bring out
these features without makeup.
19. We had a variation of answers from putting
vaseline on your eyelashes or mixing fake tan
with foundation to get a darker look. We got
lots of different tips from this question to be
able to include a feature in our documentary
which is on makeup tips. See our audio and
video posts to see what makeup tips people
said.

We chose 7 different styles of makeup and asked our target
audience which do they prefer. This gives us an idea of
which makeup style people currently favour and know
which direction of styles to look at in our Documentary.
This also gives us an idea of which style we should use
when filming makeup being done.
