In our questionnaire…
We asked a variety of different
ages to get a varied response to
our questions, in order for our
documentary to appeal to a
broader audience.
Are you male or female?

Gender
Male Female
There was a general
opinion given equally
from males and
females as we only
asked 18% more men,
which in our case
averages to around 2
more males. This
ensured our
documentary would
appeal to both males
and females.

To conclude…
The majority of people tend to watch
television in the evenings from 5pm
until 11pm. More specifically from
9pm – 11pm. Which is why we chose
9pm for our documentary to be aired
so that there are more chances of a
broad audience watching.

The most popular channels we found from our results was
BBC1 and ITV1. However we chose channel 4 because it was
better suited to the broad target audience age range we
chose.
Do you watch documentaries?
Yes

Our results show
us that almost ¾
of the general
public do watch
documentaries.
Meaning there
was a very highly
likely chance of
getting people to
watch our
documentary
anyway.

Despite food/nutrition being the least
popular documentary genre in our
results…
We decided to use that as a reason to create
the documentary about fruit and vegetables, to
make it a more popular topic after seeing our
documentary.
Our most popular result was history, however
we felt that there was so many documentaries
at the time with this genre and very little about
food/nutrition. Another reason why we still
pursued the topic of fruit and vegetables.

To conclude…
Our results shown us that the most
popular colours were purple, white and
green.
As a result of this, we tried to consider
these three colours primarily when
creating our draft print advertisements.
Which is why the text is written in white
and the back round colour is green.

Male Female Don't mind
As a result of the
response to this
question asked, we
chose a male voiceover
for the documentary and
radio trailer because it
had slightly more
preference.

Similar to the previous question…
Because of the higher preference
toward age 30-40 for over voiceover,
we used this age barrier when
choosing over voiceover. To ensure
they were of a matured age, because
this is what the audience stated they
preferred in the questionnaire.
Would you watch a documentary
about fruit and vegetables?
Yes
58%No
42%
Not sure
7%
58% of the people we
asked said that they
would watch a
documentary with the
topic of fruit and
vegetables, despite it not
being a popular genre in a
previously asked
question. Which
reiterates one of the
reasons for choosing this
topic, because we want to
gain more interest and
understanding about
healthy eating.
Do you think that Fruit and Vegetables
are too expensive?
Yes
68%
No
32%
This question was asked to
find out some general
thoughts and opinions of the
general public, for
conversation topics in our
documentary. For example the
idea of the cost for fruit and
vegetables being too high.

Again…
This question was asked to find out some
general opinions so they can be used within our
documentary. In this case, to find out where
people do and don’t tend to shop for their fruit
and vegetables, so we could consider our
interviewees.
Are your children fussy eaters when it
comes to Fruit and Vegetables? (Answer if
applicable)
33%
37%
30%
Yes No N/A
This allowed us to keep
finding out information
about the general public,
to then be used in our
documentary research,
because it could be
considered as a possible
conversation topic as to
whether young people are
eating healthily enough.
Do you eat your ‘5-a-day’?
Yes
74%
No
26%
Because our main topic in
the documentary is eating
5-a-day, we asked our
audience if they eat their
5-a-day on a day-to-day
basis, to help us with
some of the research and
statistics we then
included in our
documentary.
Would you consider yourself to be
healthy?
Yes
84%
No
16%
This was the final question in our
questionnaire and was very
interesting because as a result of
this we found that 3 out of the 25
people asked do eat their 5-a-day
but don’t consider themselves to
be healthy. And 8 out of 25
people don’t eat their 5-a-day
but do consider themselves to be
healthy. Therefore this was an
interesting research point for the
documentary and it was an
interesting fact to point out
within our archive material.
