TRANSCRIPT

The majority of the people who answered this survey were all in the age range of 15-20 . However, 3 of them were 21-30 which would give different opinions throughout the survey which would give a range of answers.

This is important so that I am able to think about ideas that would appeal to different age groups.

I have an equal amount of gender survey takers which would show different opinions on the questions I have created.

This is important so that the answers given would reflect on the ideas that I would be thinking about when it comes to planning my trailer.

This shows one more male answered my survey than the females.

With the response I received from this question the answer has varied as most of the people who took my survey have said that they go to the cinema 3-4 times a year or more.However, only one person said they go to the cinema once or twice a year which shows that the majority does go to the cinema to watch new movies.

The majority of people who answered my survey said that they like supernatural horror movies. This shows that they’re interested in this sub genre but 3 people said that they do not like this genre.

The reasons why I they do or do not like the genre gave good results as it varied, this would give an idea on how to improve the trailer to make sure it does not fall into any of these traps that some people would pull away from watching supernatural horror films.

The responses from what people said what they expect from supernatural horror films is equally balanced.From actors being possessed and having powers.

Some other answers said having blood and grime, scary scenes and lots of stuff which means this genre has many ideas involved.

These responses are helpful as I would make sure most of these points would be included in the trailer planning.

Many people said that they would be surprised with no survivors as there is usually a survivor but some people said that it would be a good plot twist which shows it would draw people into watching the movie form just watching the trailer.

However, some people said they would not be surprised and wouldn’t mind as it would be pointless or that it would be interesting to see change which shows it would attract them to watch the trailer/film.

The answer to this question has varied as some said they prefer Halloween while others said Friday the 13th and whenever.This shows that some would not mind it to be released any other times but most said on the days that most horror movies would be released which was Friday the 13th . This gives an idea that I should think about releasing the film during Friday the 13th.

Most people said that adverts and word of mouth is how they find out about new films.

There is a balanced answer between trailers and social media which shows that trailers and social media plays a huge part in how people would find out about new films.

No one said that they find out through newspapers which shows that not many people now days actually use newspapers to find out any information about new films but through technology.

There is a clear cut that some people have the same favourite supernatural horror film as these were the most recent films that came out in 2014 which they find one of their favourites.

There are other answers that shows some people like older supernatural horror movies that came out a couple of years ago.One person said they do not know and another said Casper the friendly ghost which is confusing due the film not being a horror but probably was not really sure of the sub genre.

Two people said that ‘The conjuring’ was an effective trailer as it does not give away the plot and that it was attention grabbing.Two other said ‘Annabelle’ as it used a doll to possess and that it gave a good image for the film but the film was not as good as the trailer. This shows the trailer was effective to make the person watch it but not get the result they were hoping.

Others said Carrie 2013 and Insidious as the film began to build up and that the whole plot was not given away.
