Questionaires

Questionnaires are very important when considering a target audience in that they give you a clear and accurate idea of what different age groups want to watch and what they don't want to watch.

My groups questionnaire consisted of 10 different questionnaires on what they would expect or like to see in a enjoyable thriller film. All of the questions which were surveyed had a multiple choice which meant  it was quick for the people that we surveyed that and at the same time easy for us to see what people liked as they were specific answers. I have surveyed 40 people in total as it gives me a wide variety of people to get different opinions and views from randomly aged individuals allowing me and my group to have an idea of what the majority of people expect to see in a thriller  allowing us to put these conventions  and opinions people enjoy into our thriller knowing that people will enjoy it. As there are 4 people within are group we decided that each of us would survey 10 people each to fairly share out the work load. The task was very beneficial due to the fact that we had undertaken primary research meant that we was able to get accurate results that is recent and valid giving us a good insight in what people want to see in thrillers this present time.
