Audience Questionnaire

As part of our research we decided to create a questionnaire in order to discover more information about what the audience think about horror trailers. In our questionnaire we created questions that we thought would give us more of an insight into the genre and what the audience think about it. These are the questions we placed on our questionnaire:

• Do you like Horror films ?

Yes / No

• Has a trailer for a film ever made you want to watch it

Yes / No

• How often do you watch horror films

Always Often Occasionally Rarely Very rarely

• Do you like horror films to feel realistic

Yes / No

• What is your favorite Horror trailer?

• Where do you tend to watch movie trailers for horror films?

At Home The cinema The internet Mobile

Other…

(Insert an example of a filled in questionnaire here)

Having had ten of our questionnaires completed we have found some interesting facts. Ten out of ten of ten people answered 'yes' that they do like horror films. This shows that with the liking of horror films being there we can then appeal this product to the audience knowing it is a genre that they will like. The second question also proved 100% positive as ten people answered 'yes' that a trailer has made you watch a film. This is important as it shows by watching the trailer it leads to people wanting to watch the actual film. The most common answers for the third question were that people tend to watch horror films often and sometimes occasionally. These were the only chosen answers for this question. This reflects the genre as some people may find it hard to watch horror films all the time and keep a straight mind. We also asked people what their favorite horror trailer was. We had quite a range of answers for this question but the film that appeared most was '28 days later'. In our final question we asked the audience where they tend to watch movie trailers. We found that we had missed one obvious option for seeing trailers which was on the tv. This is for big money movies made in hollywood. Overall our audience questionnaire showed us that there is a very large market for horror movies and trailers. We also found that people take quite a large interest in them as they liked to be pushed to the limits in terms of how scared they really are. All the favorite trailers were big money hollywood films which normally have tv advertising.
