The document contains the results of a questionnaire given to viewers of a short horror film called "Conscious" to gauge audience reception and feedback. Some key findings:
- The majority of respondents were male (71%) and between ages 12-15 (58%)
- Most respondents rated the film 6 or higher on a scale of 1-10 for quality (55% 6-7, 27% 8-9)
- Most felt the fonts (70%), genre identification (71%), and age certification (80%) were appropriate, though some aspects like storyline clarity (40%) and weakest points like lighting (30%) could be improved.
3. • As this questionnaire was given out
voluntarily, the results state males volunteered to
answer the questionnaire more than
females, showing that males may have had more
interest in horror films.
• 69%- males
• 31%- Females
• Showing gender bias, and this is illustrating that it
goes with the stereotype that males are more
drown to action thriller films than females which
is helpful as I am more convinced that the film
will appeal to both males and females

with the target audience this was 58% and
21% of the people were aged between 16 – 19
and 14% were aged 20-24 and only 7% of the
people were 25 and over.

7. • What we can clearly identify from this graph is
that the film was good as the majority of

a few 10 so this means that the audience liked
the short film that we created

No

70%
9. • Through the graph you can see that the
audience liked the fonts used in the film
because 70% said that they liked the font and
30% said that they didn’t like it so this could
be something that we could work on.

action genre
yes
No
31%
69%
11. • As 69% of the people that we asked said that
we fulfilled the convention of a action genre
this showed that most people thought that
the film fitted into a action genre but as 31%
said no this is also something that we should
work on.
12. Can the genre clearly and easily be identified?
yes
No
29%
71%
13. • Through the questionnaire we can identify
that the audience can identify that the genre
is a action thriller as 71% of people said that it
was identifiable where as 29% said it wasn't
from this we can say that the film has done its
job but we could have done more research on
the genre too make it more identifiable to the
audience
14. Did you find the plot/storyline clear?
yes
No
40%
60%
15. • The majority which was 60% said that they
found the plot clear this means that the
remaining 40% didn’t this could be because
the film didn’t give background information
about the main character.
16. On a scale of 1-5 (1 being high and 5 low) how

did create suspense as most of the figures
