1. QUESTIONNAIRE RESULTS
Courtney Few

2. • I compiled together a 10 questioned questionnaire on
www.surveymonkey.co.uk this was a very effective way of making,
distributing my questionnaire and analysing the results afterwards. I
distributed it to post on my Facebook page and to tweet the link on Twitter
because I found that the most likely place that my target audience would
be. In this presentation I have talked about the results from my questionnaire
and how they will help me to plan and produce my psychological thriller film
trailer.

3. QUESTION 1:
The first question shows that the majority of
the answers given on my questionnaire
have been answered by females. As this
chart shows us that 75% of the respondents
was female and only 25% male.

4. QUESTION 2:
From this question I wanted to find
out how old the participants who
was answering my questionnaire
were. From the results I can see that
81% of participants said that they
was 15-17, 13% are between 16-20
and 6% are between the ages of
27-29. In my questionnaire I started
the age given at 15 because the
youngest psychological thriller films
are is a 15 and they are normally
aged at an 18 film.

5. QUESTION 3:
From the results I get from this question I
wanted to find out what my respondents
like to do in their spare time, so I can
start to see what type of people enjoy
watching psychological thrillers. From
the results presented here on this table I
can see that 63% like to go out with
friends or family, 38% like to watch
movies, 38% like to listen to music, 50%
like shopping and 25% play sports.

6. QUESTION 4:
In this question I asked what type of film genre is
their favourite this is because i can see what the
most popular genre is and how many enjoy
watching psychological thrillers too. From the
results I can see that most people have their
favourite genre as comedy’s and romantic
comedy’s with 38% answered this, then the next
popular with 32% responses was psychological
thrillers which help me to understand that my
chosen genre is significant to my targeted
audience and is popular to a large amount of
people. We can see the next most popular genres
was horror, thriller and action/adventure then the
least favourite genre was chick flick films with a
percentage of 19%

7. QUESTION 5:
The results from this question tells me that the
majority of participants said that they had
watched a psychological thriller film in the
last two years with 69% of the group chose
this. This shows that 31% haven’t seen a
psychological thriller in the last two years.

8. QUESTION 6:
I can see from the results from looking at the
chart in the image on the left that 69% of
participants that answered the questionnaire
said that they liked psychological thrillers and
that 31% of participants do not like
psychological thrillers.

9. QUESTION 7:
I asked the question ‘What do you expect to see in a
psychological thriller film?’ and the answers given are
presented in the images. These responses show me that I
have to make sure I take in consideration that there
needs to be frightening scenes, unusual music, and
unusual and isolated settings, scary stuff, one main
mentally ill character who is the protagonist, confused
people, and a deep and interesting narrative.

10. QUESTION 8:
In this open ended question that I asked ‘what do
you enjoy most about a psychological thriller film?’ I
could tell that tension is important, lonely and
trapped character, blood and the scary stuff,
constant tension, a climatic ending, excitement of
the action, and the crafty narrative. These answers
are important because it helps me to understand
what the target audience enjoys and this tells me
what I must include in my trailer to link with the film.

11. QUESTION 9:
I wanted to find out how many from the
group who answered my questionnaire
tend to watch the film trailer before
watching a film to show me how
important trailers are to impact the film. I
can see from the responses that the
majority do watch the trailer before
watching a film at 38% saying every time
so this tells me that the trailers have a
massive impact and are important so I will
have to make the trailer at high quality.
The participants then said that 31% said
mostly, 13% said often, 13% said hardly
ever and 6% said never.

12. QUESTION 10:
In this question I asked ‘what do you find most effective
about a film trailer?’ and I found from the results that I
must include this parts in my film trailer to interest the
targeted audience: pull you in, scary parts, narrative must
grab attention, doesn’t give to much from the film, well
known actors, creepy music and fast paced shots of
snippets from the film.
