Market research
The first question I asked, was the age of the
participants from this you can see that they was
all between the age of 16-25, this information
now means that we can see where and to what
age our target audience are, and we can now do
further research into this age group to see what
they look for with in a music video.
The next question we asked was there gender
as we can look into seeing if different genders
like different things and then we can look into
changing certain things within our music video
to meet the expectations of both genders. We
also asked 5 males and 5 females to try and
get equal results.
The third question what I asked was what types
of music do you listen to, there was choices
such as rap, Indie, Pop, RnB, Country and a
others option if they liked and other genre. From
my results I found that the people answering the
questionnaire preferred the indie genre of
music. From these results we
concluded/decided to do a Indie music video as
this is the most popular genre from our target
audience with 80% of people picking this genre
We thenaskedpeople where the expectedto
see a indie musicvideoshot.44.4%of people
