QUESTIONNAIRE RESULTS
I DECIDED TO CREATE A QUESTIONNAIRE, TO HELP ME DECIDE ON THE TYPE OF AUDIENCE MY FILM TRAILER WILL BE AIMED TOWARDS. I HAVE ASKED OPEN AND CLOSED QUESTIONSWHICH WILL GIVE ME A VARIETY OF ANSWERS, IN WHICH I THEN CAN ANALYSE.

Gender
I gave my survey out at random to ten people I knew. This gave a non bias result as I was not
expecting an equal ratio. This graph however does show near enough an equal result, with 40% of
them being male, and 60% female. This tells me that I do not have to target my trailer specifically
towards gender.

Age
During my questionnaire it shows the most popular people I asked was the category of 18-25
years. This is relevant as it the age range I was targeting my product to. I did not want to
focus on teenagers 17 and under due to the content included in my trailer. However, I can
focus on the older generation too as they the horror genre’s most popular age category.

influence of film trailer
This answer shows that a film trailer does influence a proportion of people, therefore showing
that this is the most important element in my production products.
DOES A FILM POSTER INFLUENCE YOU?
influence of film poster
yes no
60% of people said that a film
poster will not influence their
choice in watching the film at
the cinema. This shows that the
poster needs to convey a
message to the audience which
will persuade them to watch it,
through horror elements.

new movie releases
Chart Title
Trailers Magazines online social media other
The most popular form of people finding out about new movie releases is by Trailers. Other
popular methods are online and social media. Ones that did not prove popular was magazines.
DO YOU READ MOVIE MAGAZINES?reading movie magazines
yes no
This chart shows that 70% of
people do not read movie
magazines and prefer other
methods.
I will therefore target the
small proportion who do read
movie magazines with using
the relevant conventions.
IF SO HOW OFTEN?Sales
never frequently at least once a month
This pie chart shows that most people I surveyed
did not read or purchase movie magazines. Only a
select few frequently read them. And 2 people
reading them at least once a month.
This shows that movie magazines are not that
popular in them finding out about the latest movie
releases and look to other sources of exhibition such
as social media.
