The document summarizes the results of a questionnaire about preferences for a documentary on boxing. It reveals that the target audience is mostly female, ages 17-24 who watch TV in the evenings for 1 hour or less. They prefer to watch documentaries on Netflix and are concerned about head injuries in boxing. While not avid viewers of boxing, most feel female boxing promotes gender equality. This information will help tailor the documentary's content, timing and distribution to appeal to this key demographic.

1. Questionnaire Results

2. Q1 How old are you?
This question was intended to discover the main age
group that our documentary would be aimed at . The
end result revealed that the majority of those that
were asked were between the age of 17 and 24, this
gives us a younger age group to work with and gives
us an idea of who to aim the product at. Other
people indicated that they fell into other age groups
such as 11-16, 25-30 and 31+ which showed that we
should also consider the wants and needs of a
younger and older audience other than the majority
age group.

3. Q2 What is your gender?
The majority of the people who were asked responded that they were female
which shows that we have an audience consisting of mostly female viewers,
however a third of those who were asked responded that they are male which
means that we will be catering for both genders but should aim to cater mostly for
a female audience. The information from this question and the first question help
to show our intended audience.

4. Q3 What is your favourite colour?
For this question we offered our audience
multiple options of common colours as
well as the option to add their own colour
if we had not included it in our options.
The colours with the most popularity
were blue and pink which may influence
our choice of colour for our documentary
(for example font colour and graphics
colours). There were other colours that
showed popularity such as red, purple
black, white and orange, these colours
may also be used but not as main
colours.

5. Q4 What time do you usually watch television?
This question was designed to show us when
our documentary should be aired in order to
receive the best reception. The overall result
showed that our audience watches television
in the evening which shows us our ideal time
to air the documentary, this is also ideal
because most people have returned from
their jobs or from school which means there
will be a large audience. After this time
(evening to nighttime) the majority of those
who were asked said they watch television.

6. Q5 How long do you typically watch television for per
day?
This question helped us understand the
window of opportunity we would have to show
our documentary before our audience
stopped watching television. The majority of
our audience said that they only consume 0-1
hours of television per day which gives us a
small window to broadcast our documentary
and for it to be received well by our audience.
Others said that they watch 2-3 hours of
television which may give us a larger window
of opportunity, a minority of people said that
they watch television for 4-5 hours or more.

0-1

7. Q6 What is your favourite way of watching
documentaries?
This question was designed to help us find
which platform was the most popular for
our audience to watch documentaries on.
The end result showed that the majority of
our audience watch documentaries on the
online platform mostly through Netflix who
are known to stream a wide variety of
documentary programmes. Other popular
channels included BBC One and Channel
4 (ITV and Sky were also voted for).
However the number of votes for Netflix
may mean that our documentary is shown
via the popular streaming service.

8. Q7 How often do you watch boxing on television?
To gauge the popularity of our topic amongst our
audience we presented this question which would
tell us if our audience already liked our topic or
not. Unfortunately most of those who were asked
responded that they never watch boxing on
television which shows that it may not be a
popular topic for those that were asked or the
audience may not watch boxing on television but
may stream it over the internet instead. Only one
person responded that they often watch boxing
matches which shows that a small number are
interested in the sport, the remainder of those that
were asked said they only watch big fights or
occasionally watch fights.

9. Q8 Is female boxing good for the sport? Why?
From our feedback, 18 people said they
think female boxing is good as it
teaches them to stand up for
themselves, makes them stronger, is a
good way to release aggression and
doesn't show sexism within sports.
However, 1 person said other which
may show that they are undecided on
how they feel regarding females being
integrated into the sport.

10. Q9 Would you like to see more female boxers?
From the feedback, 18 people believe that there should be more female boxers
as it shows equality between genders, diversion and it shows that it is not just a
masculine sport. However, 2 people said there should not be which could
reinforce gender stereotypes.

11. Q10 When should
children be allowed to
compete in boxing
competitions?
From the results, it is evident that most people believe those who are between the
ages of 11-14 should compete in boxing competitions as it can keep them fit, and this
is the stage that majority of teenagers are maturing. They may even find a passion for
sport. However, the results vary, as the audience other individuals believe that those
who are of different ages should be allowed to be in contact with sports.

12. Q11 Should young people (4-17) be allowed to
compete in contact sports like boxing? Why?
From the audience
feedback, the majority of
people said that those
aged between 4-17 should
be able to compete in
these sports as it builds
confidence, self esteem, it
allows them to use it in
defence if it's ever needed
and it releases anger.
Teens may have a passion
for this as well.

13. Q12 Do you find fighting repulsive and why?
From the feedback, it was
evident that 13 people do
not find fighting repulsive.
However, 7 people did
which could show that they
find fighting a dangerous
and disgusting which could
reinforce it to be a negative
sport.

14. Q13 Are you concerned about head injuries in sports
like boxing, rugby..etc..why?
From the feedback, it is
evident that 15 people are
concerned about the
injuries that could occur
within boxing. This could
show that boxing is a
vigorous sport. However,
5 people are not
concerned which could
imply they may play that
sport themselves.

15. Q14 Are you concerned about head injuries in sports
like Boxing, Rugby, Etc... Why?
¾ people showed concern for the issue however many of the responses talked
about ‘accidents’ rather than damage sustained over time, this could be an
interesting segment of the documentary to educate people on the dangers of
repeated concussions.

16. Q15 Would you like to see a documentary
about boxing?
This is a 50/50 split.
Considering not all of the
people partaking in the
survey are in our target
audience this is a
successful return as the
majority of the people in
our target audience
would want to watch the
documentary.

17. Q16 Would you allow your children to box?
Why?
35% of parents wouldn’t allow their
children to box, this shows the stigmas
surrounding combat sports like boxing
and the difficulties children face in
getting involved with sports. Could ask
interviewees if they faced any
opposition in getting involved with the
sport. Could also show all the positives
of training for the sport without actually
getting involved in contests.

18. Q17 What colours do you associate with boxing?
Red is a colour
synonymous with
boxing, as shown
by the results, just
after is gold.
These are two
colours we will try
and base our
colour scheme
around.

19. Q18 Do you know the difference between amateur
and professional boxing?
Most people claimed to
know the difference
between amateur and
pro boxing, as two of
the main purpose of a
documentary are to
inform and educate we
will exclude this from
the documentary, there
is no point telling people
what they already know.

20. Q19 What kind of voiceover do you prefer in a
documentary?
The results
suggest a slight
favouring towards
young men doing
the voiceover. As
a result we will try
to have our
narrator be a
young man to
appeal to our
target audience.

21. Q20 Would you like to watch sports documentaries?
Once again this is a
50/50 split. Considering
not all of the people
partaking in the survey
are in our target
audience this is a
successful return as the
majority of the people in
our target audience
would want to watch
sports documentaries.
