2. Genre: Thriller
This slide show will briefly project and prove the data that I have
collected from my target audience survey. There were many methods
available in which I could use my survey but I chose to create mine on
the school VLE; this is because it was easy to use monitor and create.
3.

5.
6.
7. 1. All of the respondents are teenagers; this is due to me putting the questionnaire on
the school website and therefore is something I should have thought about before
conducting the questionnaire.
2. Almost equal amount of boys and girls filled in the questionnaire, this is good
because it means I can get a good sample (average representation) of the
population.
3. 70% of respondents answered that they watch films with their family and friends,
therefore I shall think about making my short film appropriate for both these
audiences.
4. the only 2 valid answers are: Shutter Island And The Book Of Eli, therefore I shall
consider making the storyline of the short film based around a mystery as this is a
concept both films include.
5. 60% of respondents answered they preferred the decade of 2000’s Thriller films, this
is the newest full decade and therefore I think 2010’s wasn’t picked due to lack of
films released because only 1 year has passed in this decade so far. Overall due to a
newer decade being picked I think this shows that the respondents enjoy techniques
such as special effects, HD graphics and other newer breakthroughs in the film
industry.
8. 6. Respondents answers ranged almost equally between 3 answers therefore I shall
think about including aspects of action, supernatural happenings and some
psychological techniques in the story line.
7. 80% of respondents said they prefer a male lead role and this is something I will
consider.
8. Most of the respondents said they didn’t mind if a story line was told from multi or
single perspectives therefore I shall have to decide for myself which one to choose.
9. Most of the respondents prefer tension to build up rather than to be shocked and
this is something I shall consider when making my short film.
10. Choices were evenly spread and therefore I shall think about captivating my
audience in all area of my movie.
Overall I have used the results to make decisions such as:
• I will now use a male lead.
• Include action, an intelligent plot and maybe supernatural aspects in the film.
• Use tension instead of an sudden shock.
• Consider audiences such as family and friends when making the film.
