Survey Monkey Results

Question 1:
The first question is simply 'What is your gender?' Just so we understand who is giving us these results. It would have been far easier with an equal number of results but this cannot be helped. 

Question 2: 
The next question was asking the audience for their age. Four of the audience was under 18 whereas the other two were either between 18 and 24 or 25 and 34. I think this could help as it means i get a nice mix of people answering my survey. 

Question 3: 
The social group question is usually an important one as it shows what sorts of people the audience is. You can see here that most of them are either unemployed or they're students. This would most likely include the under 18s. 

Question 4:
Question 4 is where the main film questions begin. Using this question, I found out that everyone who answered has some interest in films and they've all watched one at some point. This shows that they are all fine to fill in the rest of the survey. 

Question 5:
This is when we found out that the audience is very fond of fantasy films. The only two genres to receive more than one ten is fantasy and action. Unfortunately, action was given poor ratings to drop the average right down to a 6.5. Fantasy was given an average of 8.6 due to it getting at-least a 7 from everyone. The next highest after that was Comedy. Although it was rated high, we wouldn't be able to make a comedy because it's a very hard genre. Sci-Fi was rated well but we don't really have the equipment to make a really good science fiction movie. Adventure is very similar to fantasy but it was only rewarded a 6.3 which shows that the audience really don't like these films. The only two genres with the same rating is Horror and Thriller, although horror did get a 10 rating from someone whereas thriller didn't get above an 8. Romance was then rated a 4.5 just in front of Crime with the lowest of all, 3.1. This meant there was no way we were going to make a romance or crime film.

Question 6:
This question showed what sorts of films the audience like and why they rated the genres how they have. You can see films like Cloud Atlas and The Hobbit are fantasy sorts of films with Avatar being along the same lines. Total Recall is a real action film whereas vampire films are not so much. Star wars is a Sci-Fi which shows who rated that a 10. I think these results are great as our film is planning on being similar to The Hobbit which shows that the audience should enjoy it. 

Question 7:
I think these results could have came out a little better than they did as the average trailer should not be more than 3 minutes. I think that it should be about 1-2 minutes long at most. 

Question 8:
All of these are good points and I think in order to get the best trailer possible, we need to take them all into account. The choices include things like good sound, music, fast scenes, a story and a cliffhanger. Together, that will create a very good trailer for us.
