Evaluation: Question 5- How did i attract/adress my target audience?

Question 5

As well as carrying out a variety of secondary research on thrillers and audiences, I also had to carry out primary reasearch on my target audience.

Our target audience were given a questionnaire made by me to reasearch what my audience see as a conventional thriller film.

My questionnaire contained questions about what my target audience like in thriller film, for example one of my questions were what type of setting do you think is typical to thriller films. All though this was a questinon with alot of answer i gave them just four options family home, forest, abandoned house and warehouse 10 out of 20 people then awnsered family home this then influenced our choice of setting as we used that as our setting.

I also asked the audience what their preffered theme in a thriller is. 8 people out of twenty said that partanormal was their favourite when answering in my questionaire this then lead us to use the paranormal them as the them for our thriller film.

 

 

 

Overal the primary research was beneficial to my research and planning because it helped  enabled my group to find out what our target audience want and how we can make a film that they will love Furthermore he questionnaire helped us to make our thriller film conventional to the thriller genre as we found out what people see as conventonal in thrillers we based our thriller film around the theme of paranormal activity. the responce from our questionaire influenced our desicion as that is the one that our target audience liked the most also we gave the questionaire to people between the ages of 15 and 20 this then helped us descide that the age of our film will 15 as we are now basing our film around the answers to our questionair and the ages of the people we gave our questionaire to are 15 to 20.
