Evaluation for media
The document discusses the feedback received from an audience survey about horror movie preferences that was conducted to help determine what type of horror movie trailer to create. The survey found that paranormal horror was the most popular genre and torture the least, so a paranormal trailer was selected. Conducting the survey helped understand the target 15-30 age range audience and that males and females enjoy horror equally. While most respondents were female, responses from a broad age range were received. The feedback received after creating the trailer confirmed paranormal and jump scares were effective and identified areas like lighting and camera angles to improve.
Who would be the audience for your media product?
James Mclean conducted pre-production research through a questionnaire for a target audience of males aged 12-35 to gauge interest in a sci-fi/cyberpunk/spy thriller film with a sarcastic main character and twists and turns. The responses were generally positive but suggested the plot was generic and to consider fast-paced editing and music. This gave James confidence to proceed but also to subvert expectations of the genre by using non-traditional music styles like jazz and folk instead of typical electronic or intense scores.
Questionnaire evaluation
The document analyzes the results of a target audience questionnaire about preferences for horror movies. It finds that the target audience is 16-21 year olds, with women showing more interest than men. Death and clowns were the biggest fears, while common horror movie colors like grey, white and red were preferred. Darkness, religion and thriller elements scare audiences the most. Popular locations included churches and forests. Psychological and paranormal genres were favored. The opening of horror movies should include jumpy moments, silence and darkness.
Question 5
To attract their target audience of 15-18 year olds, the filmmakers cast teenage actors so that audience members could relate to the characters. They also applied a 15 rating to ensure the target audience could view it and to allow more gore. Additionally, they conducted a questionnaire to understand what the target audience likes and dislikes in horror films. Based on the results, they set the film in a graveyard since death was a top fear, and included locations like churches and forests that tested well. The filmmakers also included a jump scare in the opening as the audience preferred that for openings.
Audience survey: Film poster and radio trailer
The document discusses surveys conducted with an audience to determine the most effective horror film posters and trailers. It was found that trailers that included shocks and a sense of realism, like Chucky and Scream 3, were most memorable. Respondents said they want trailers to include conventions like blood and jump scares while leaving some suspense and not revealing the whole plot. Most said they prefer red and blood color themes in posters over black and grey, and find posters most memorable when they include vivid images that instill fear like body parts in Saw posters. The majority also said they prefer simple poster layouts without catchphrases that don't reveal the full narrative.
Horror movie survey
The document summarizes the results of a horror movie survey conducted by Nishat Simi Khan & Sharmila Aktar. The survey found that most of the target audience was between 15-18 years old. Psychological and thriller genres were most popular, along with elements of sound/music, darkness, and settings that induce fear. Character preferences also indicated a liking for villains/murderers. Modern horror films based on real-life events were generally preferred over older films.

Media Evaluation.
The document discusses the key elements included in the student's thriller film project. It summarizes the conventions they followed, such as being set in a suburban area, having a clear antagonist and plot focused on them, including kidnapping and suspense. It also discusses how they portrayed women in a powerful role and didn't negatively portray young people. The summary evaluates how the film challenges stereotypes and engages the audience with questions and an intriguing opening.
Questionnaire results
The document summarizes the results of a questionnaire about supernatural/horror films. Key findings include:
- The 18-24 age group was most interested in taking the survey.
- Females were found to be most interested in supernatural/horror movies.
- Audience responses showed varying levels of knowledge about the genre.
- Respondents said they want to see blood, death, and scary monsters in these films.
- The majority enjoy the genre, though two respondents did not.
- Answers about last films watched allowed for more accurate responses.
- Trailers were viewed as the most important marketing strategy.
Analysis of audience research
The document summarizes audience research conducted for a zombie film project. Researchers created questions based on zombie movie tropes and what they wanted the film to be about. They surveyed 20 people from their target demographic and analyzed the responses in charts and graphs. Most respondents preferred the title "Lockdown" and thought two protagonists in a research facility was suitable. They also felt an experimental virus was the scariest outbreak cause. Respondents prioritized fear, cliffhangers, and moderate violence in the film. The majority wanted the zombies to escape at the end to set up a sequel.
Secrets Of Easy Persuasion
The document discusses how putting ideas or suggestions into "imagination land" by using hypothetical language can help get others to be more receptive. It explains that asking people to imagine hypothetical scenarios reduces fears of rejection and helps them visualize possibilities without pressure. Specifically, it notes salespeople have success by getting customers to imagine already having the product and enjoying it in the future.
Question 3: Audience Feedback
The survey provided useful information about the target audience for the film project being 16-25 year olds. This helped with casting young actors within this age range to make the characters more relatable. Finding two female actors who looked like they could be related for the roles of Emma and Melissa made the casting process rigorous. The survey also indicated that most viewers prefer trailer lengths between 1.5 to 2 minutes. This informed the decision to make the film a 15 rating so it could be shown in cinemas and appeal to the 15-18 age group. Feedback from a focus group suggested changing how Emma's death was portrayed to leave it more mysterious.
Questionnaire results
The questionnaire results showed that the target audience for horror films is 17-24 year old males, most of whom are full-time students living in Chigwell or Barkingside on a low income. They prefer to watch psychological and supernatural horror films online or with friends. Common preferences included Valak as the scariest antagonist, possessions as the scariest supernatural element, and Patrick Wilson as the most iconic protagonist. Based on these findings, the proposal is to create a short film featuring male student friends in Chigwell dealing with possessions, incorporating elements audiences found scary, and distribute it online for under £10 around half term to reach the largest potential audience.
Task 3 media updated
The document discusses audience feedback for a student film project. It describes how the filmmakers tested an early "rough cut" version with audiences to get feedback, which revealed needed changes like improving the audio. They then made revisions and tested a final version, which received positive feedback with no suggested improvements. Gathering this audience feedback at different stages was important for creating the best possible final product.
Horror Movie Survey Response Analysis
This powerpoint slideshow analyses the responses which I received for a horror movie survey I carried out, in order to create a short horror film which my target audience would enjoy.
Evaluation Question Three
This document summarizes peer feedback on several short films. The feedback was separated into four sections: plot understandability, appropriate age rating, technical qualities/positives, and negatives/improvements. For plot understandability, 86% of peers found the plot understandable. For age rating, 71% thought 12/12A was suitable. For positives, peers commonly cited variety of shots and suitable sound/music. For improvements, peers frequently suggested credits and lighting were too long.
Audience feedback question
The document summarizes the results of a questionnaire given to 20 people after viewing the trailer for a horror film product. The questionnaire asked about preferences for horror subgenres, revealing antagonists and protagonists in trailers, amount of action, and pace of trailers. Most respondents preferred the 'human monster' subgenre shown in the trailer, revealing main characters, having some but not too much action, and a fast pace. Additional open-ended questions about the trailer's storyline and representations challenged Barthes' theory that the creator does not define a text's meaning by showing the audience picked up on the intended enigmatic and male-dominated themes.
Questionnaire results analysis
The document discusses the results of audience research conducted for a media studies coursework project on creating a film trailer. A questionnaire gathered information on respondents' preferences for film genres, expectations for trailers, and what creates tension in horror films. The results showed a preference for horror and comedy genres and for using voiceovers in trailers. Additional research was conducted on film posters and magazine covers to understand what draws attention and viewer preferences. The research results will help inform the design and content of the film trailer, poster, and magazine cover created for the project.
Audience research
The document discusses how the results of a survey could impact the film idea. Since most respondents were ages 16-20, the film would need to comply with age rating standards. Since over 60% of respondents were male, the film would be targeted towards male audiences. The variety of occupations among respondents means the film wouldn't cater to a specific occupation. Preferences for gory horror films and seeing films in cinemas frequently could influence content and release strategies. Scenes wouldn't be avoided that would make family viewings awkward. High quality trailers are important based on their influence. The film will aim to provoke fear and jump scares as preferred by respondents. The lack of named favorite horror films leaves the level of interest unclear
Questionnaire results 2
This questionnaire provided results from a target audience of 16-18 year olds. It found that psychological and supernatural horror genres were most popular. Trailers and posters were seen to influence viewers' decisions to watch movies. Respondents typically watched horror films once a month, showing interest in the genre. Characters with unearthly, dark appearances were found scariest. The results highlighted preferences and consumption habits to inform the promotion of a horror film to this demographic.
Audience research
The document summarizes the results of a survey about film preferences of the target audience for a new film. It found that teenagers aged 14-17 are most interested in movies. Females like watching films more than males. The most popular genres are thriller, action, and horror. Based on this, the filmmakers decided to create a thriller film incorporating these genres. The trailer was found to be most important for promoting a film, so the opening two minutes will clearly present characters, genre and narrative. A title of "Eye for an Eye" tested best with the target audience.
What have you learned from your audience feedback
The respondent conducted audience research using Survey Monkey to learn about their target audience's preferences for drama and thriller films. Key findings from the survey included:
1) Thriller films were the most popular genre at 15%, followed by drama films at 14%, which was positive as the respondent's film is also a drama/thriller.
2) Crime and society-focused themes received many votes, in line with the respondent's film about terrorism and its effects.
3) Emotional issues like death polled highly, matching a saddening element where all characters die in the respondent's film.
4) The film Munich, about retaliatory terrorist attacks, was popular and related to the respondent's
Target audience analysis
This document analyzes the target audience for a movie through surveys of physical and online questionnaires. It summarizes that most respondents were ages 15-21, male, enjoy movies that are not social realism genres, watch movies mostly on DVDs or both DVDs and theaters/internet, are in further education or have part-time jobs, live in the UK mostly in England, understand the term social realism but may not find it highly relatable or enjoyable for a majority. The document considers how to tailor the movie topic and format based on these results.

Evaluation Question 3
The document discusses feedback received from audiences on the film trailer. It provides details from surveys conducted to identify the target audience. Feedback from YouTube comments and social media indicated that most expected a male protagonist so the female lead was a unique selling point. However, dialogue was sometimes difficult to hear over music. Further feedback on the draft trailer suggested using more gangster iconography. The final trailer was improved with voiceover but could still extend some scenes to provide more context.
Task 3 media
The document discusses audience feedback for a student film project. It describes conducting test screenings of a rough cut and final teaser trailer for a romantic drama targeted at female audiences ages 14-20. Feedback from the rough cut helped improve audio and voiceover. Feedback for the final trailer was positive with no suggested changes, showing the best possible trailer was created. The filmmakers benefited from audience feedback to improve editing techniques and ensure success.
Evaluation Question 5
The document describes how the creators of a thriller film addressed their target audience. They distributed a questionnaire to gather demographic information, which showed their target was primarily males aged 15-30 from middle-class backgrounds interested in sports, travel, and action/horror films. They got feedback on their film from this audience, which identified areas to improve like editing and shot stability. To appeal to their target male audience, the film featured more male characters, an agent storyline, violence, mystery, and editing/music to create suspense.
Audience feedback
The document discusses the importance of audience feedback in improving media products and provides examples from the film "The Woman in Black." It then describes how the author gathered feedback on their horror film project at different stages of production through an online survey, test screening their trailer for their media class, and gathering feedback on ancillary texts like a poster and magazine. The feedback helped the author improve elements like dialogue clarity, pacing, and adding more scary shots to the trailer. It also prompted small changes to make the poster and magazine more professional and appealing to the target audience. Overall, the author found the audience feedback invaluable in developing high quality final products tailored to their target demographic.
3. What have you learned from your audience feedback?
The survey received 24 responses about a film trailer and poster. Key findings include:
- 75% of respondents were male and most were under 24 years old.

The feedback was overwhelmingly positive and showed that all three promotional products were engaging, professionally made, and effectively worked together to promote the documentary. Areas that could be improved included further developing the entertainment value and giving more context about the documentary in the print ad. Overall, the audience response validated that the documentary and its ancillary products followed standard codes and conventions of the media.
Evaluation Task 3
The document discusses the importance of audience feedback in developing a film marketing campaign. It describes how the filmmakers conducted research to identify their target audience of males and females aged 16-35. They created a pitch presentation and received feedback, which helped them refine their ideas around the characters and storyline. The filmmakers then created rough cuts of their teaser trailer, poster, and magazine cover to get more feedback. This feedback highlighted areas that needed further work, such as the poster design and background in the teaser trailer. The filmmakers made changes based on this feedback. Their final screening feedback showed that the techniques used in the teaser trailer engaged the audience and that the marketing campaign successfully portrayed the storyline, unique selling point, and characters
Evaluation Question 3
The document discusses audience feedback for film test screenings. It provides details on different types of test screenings, including intimate screenings with around 100 people and full-scale screenings with up to 400 people. Feedback is used to make final edits to films before wide release. The document also discusses establishing a target audience through research on similar films' demographics and using feedback to further develop marketing materials like posters, trailers, and magazines to effectively engage the target audience.
Evaluation question 1
The document discusses how a media group produced a documentary on video game violence along with ancillary products including a radio trailer and magazine spread. For the documentary, they researched conventions of the genre and included things like catchy titles, interviews, background footage, and editing techniques to follow conventions. However, they also challenged some conventions by including opinionated perspectives and non-diegetic music. For the radio trailer and magazine spread, they researched conventions and followed many like consistent branding but also broke some conventions tailored to their topic.
Question 3
Throughout the development of their 3 products, the group found audience feedback essential. Feedback helped them choose good names, resolve internal disputes, and improve drafts by highlighting what audiences liked and disliked. One key lesson was using feedback to select their gang name "Third Street Saints", suggested by an audience member. Feedback also helped determine the best logo, poster, trailer, and magazine designs by identifying each's strengths and weaknesses. This process enabled the group to create higher quality products aligned with audience preferences.
Question 1 - Paige Coles
The document discusses how a media product, a documentary, uses, develops, and challenges conventions of real documentaries. It follows conventions such as introducing interviewees with names and titles, using voiceovers, displaying facts over relevant footage, and conducting vox pops in relatable environments. However, it challenges conventions by not having questions in interviews, starting the voiceover after the title sequence rather than at the beginning, and using a unique title sequence and home video footage. The radio trailer and magazine spread also both follow and challenge conventions of those media.
Evaluation question 3
The document discusses methods for filmmakers to receive audience feedback, including test screenings, websites like Rotten Tomatoes, and questionnaires. It then summarizes the feedback received from showing a trailer to friends and classmates. Feedback was mostly positive, though some noted the lack of dialogue and similarities to Kill Bill. Interim feedback from teachers helped improve the trailer by adding more sound effects. Social media feedback was also positive and a good way to reach wider audiences. The importance of feedback throughout the process is discussed.
Evaluation -powerpoint_presentation[1]
The document provides feedback from an evaluation of a media product and its audience. It summarizes the results of a questionnaire and Facebook feedback on a teaser trailer for a horror film. The feedback showed that the nursery rhyme at the beginning effectively built tension. Shots of a bed and window were mentioned as scary and leaving viewers wanting more. Respondents also felt the editing transitioned well between slow and fast pacing. Most importantly, almost all viewers said they would see the full film based on the teaser.
Poster/Pages Edit - How did you attract/address your audience? - Question 5 E...
The document discusses how the filmmaker addressed their target audience when creating their thriller film. They conducted a survey that showed thriller and action/adventure were the most popular genres. They incorporated those genres and included a male teenage protagonist like in Donnie Darko to attract that audience. Test screenings provided feedback, such as shortening the eye scene and stopping the opening on a suspenseful moment. The filmmaker aimed to attract the 16-24 age range by addressing what respondents wanted regarding story, actors, and soundtrack.
Question 1 - Paige Coles
The document discusses how a media product called "My Documentary" uses, develops, and challenges conventions of real documentaries. It follows conventions like introducing interviewees with names and titles, using facts over footage, and conducting vox pops in relevant locations. However, it challenges conventions by not having an on-screen presenter, starting the voiceover after the title sequence, and using an abstract opening for its radio trailer. Overall, the documentary borrows techniques from examples like "Super Size Me" and "Video Game Invasion" while also adapting elements to make it unique.
Task 3 Presentation Group055
The production company is responsible for filming and producing the film. This includes casting actors, ensuring legal requirements are met, planning the film production, and providing props and setting up filming locations. The production company may also find a distributor to market and distribute the film.
The document discusses a student production company called "Toast" which stands for "Totally Outrageous and Sexy Thrillers." Their logo features a piece of toast with the word "Toast" changing colors and fading into "Productions."
A film distributor promotes and releases the film to the public for viewing and purchasing. They handle advertising through various media. The students chose Lionsgate as their distributor because it is an established

Proposal
- 2. What is the subject of the matter of your documentary? The subject of the documentary that my group will be filming will be titled ‘Gaming-Development & Distribution’. This will involve my group interviewing game distributors such as Game, Cex and HMV. This will show the different experience of game selling in Cex compared to Game. This will also show the process that games go through from being an idea to being a big hit.
- 3. What is the style and tendency of the documentary? The type of documentary we will be filming will feature a lot of our own footage will be taken with voice overs and this will help to explain the points that the voice over is explaining. Then it will cut to interviews of people relating to the voice overs. Hmv would be a prime example as there will be footage of inside the shop and outside the shop with an interview of someone who works there with a voice over on top of the footage obtained.
- 4. Outline the structure, beginning, middle and end/ The beginning will consist of a voice over followed with shots and images we have acquired by filming the exterior of the shops that are going to be interviewed later on in the documentary, In the middle we will have interviews of members of staff that work in the shops and then acquired footage to explain the points of the interview. The ending will consist in more voice overs with more acquired images and footage.
- 5. What could be legal or ethical issues. The legal issues could be that when we are filming the exterior of the shop we could catch the face of someone in the background and possibly they might not want to be filmed and without the signing of a release form then they could sue. Another problem could be that someone who agreed to film might not of signed a release form or then decided to decline the interview and that is a problem. You also have to be careful of who you film based on age and so on.
- 6. What contributors could you contact? We have already contacted 4 people of who could be interviewed and of which 3 distributors and one developer. The 3 distributors are Game, HMV and Cex and we have tried to get in contact with a developer that studies at franklin college. We will try and contact more people or distributors to interview as the more, the better and if one interviewee fails to get back in touch or cannot do the interview we are then not let down.
