1. Survey Analysis
I startedby askingall myparticipantstowatch the official Force Awakens
trailer.Thisfirstquestionallowsme tosortall my answersintospecificcategoriesbasedongender.I
usedsurveymonkeytoconductmysurveyand so I hadto create a separate table toshow all
comparisons,howeveritallowsme tosee ageneral overview
of the age range of my participants.
This questionwouldthenallow me tosortthe genderof the
age ranges,allowingme tocreate the gendergroupsof both
the primaryand secondaryaudiences.ThismeansthatIcan
thenanalyse how differentgroupsare affectedbythe trailer
and otherpublicityeventssurroundingthe film. Thismeans
that I can thenclearlysee whatseparatesthe fourmain
audiencesandhow disneycateredforall of them.
Askingtheiropinionstraightawayallowedme toworkout
whetherthey wouldactuallybe interestedinstarwars.This
thenmeantthat I coulddiscardcertai9nresultsor create a comparison.Forexample,surprisinglyI
foundoutthat many more teenage boysdislike starwarsthantheirfemale counterparts.This
challengesconvenmtionalattitudesthatstarwars onlyappealstomales. Thismayarguablybe due
to the fact that there are more malesthattookthe surveythanfemales,exceptthatdue tothe
abilitytogroupthe responsesaclear proportionisviewable.
