The document summarizes the results of a 7 question survey about preferences for a horror movie opening sequence.
For question 1, most respondents did not want graphic horror images. For question 2, a forest setting or old house were most popular. For question 3, nighttime was preferred. For question 4, the 15+ age rating was selected. For question 5, most were not bothered by the protagonist's gender. For question 6, a bit of both discomforting music and jumpy scenes was preferred. For question 7, focusing on one main character was preferred.
The document analyzes each survey question result and draws conclusions for designing the opening sequence based on the audience preferences indicated in the responses.
2. For the survey 27 people completed it so this gave us
a basis to go off with some of our ideas . With each
question we have put a chart in showing the
percentages with the answers.
3. Question 1:
Would you prefer the opening sequence to be graphic
horror ?
- Yes -N0 - Maybe
4. So from the data we have collected the people
decided that they wouldn’t want to see really graphic
images with the opening sequence , so we will bare
this in mind.
5. Question 2 :
What setting would you like to see the opening
sequence?
- School Old House Forest None of the answers
(with the none of answers we gave a option for there
own answers a few were) –Circus and old playground.
6. From the survey we have come to the conclusion that
we that a forest would be a ideal location that we will
think about possibly using but also could bare in
mind the Old house because it was fairly high aswell.
7. Question 3:
How would your prefer the time of day in the
opening sequence?
- Daytime Night Bit of both
8. From analysing the results from this question , we
have seen that doing the opening sequence at night
would be better because this is more appealing to the
audience.
9. Question 4:
What age group do you see acceptable for
graphic/physiological horror?
- PG 12A 15 18+
10. With this analysis on these results we found out that
a lot of people prefer the group rating to be 18+ but
we have decided that’s to high so we are going to go
with the second highest one and do 15+.
11. Question 5:
What gender would you prefer the protagonist to be?
- Yes No Not bothered
12. From the analysis we have seen that the audience are
not bothered what gender the protagonist is so we
will bare this in mind.
13. Question 6:
Would you prefer the opening sequence to have a lot
of discomforting music or jumpy scenes?
- Discomforting music Jumpy scenes Bit of both
14. We have decided as a group that we will use a bit of
both being some discomforting music and some
jumpy scenes but not a lot of scenes because it wasn’t
as popular.
15. Question 7:
Would you prefer the set of the sequence to be busy
with a lot of characters or just be one main character
to be focused on?
- A lot of characters Focused on one Bit of both
16. We have analysed the results and we have seen that
it was clear the audience want the opening sequence
to be focused on one main character.
