Questionnaire

Me and my project partner created a questionnaire for some people and friends to fill in after watching our trailer. We made sure they were all 18 and over so we could get a genuine reaction from our target audience. We managed to get a group of around 10 friends and then a few class mates for this, in the end we got about 20 questionnaires completed. By getting them to fill out the questionnaire we hoped to get some positive feedback but also some ways in which they think we can improve the trailer. This way we can make some improvements and then show it to them a second time so we can get the best possible.

Some of the feedback that we received was really good. They liked the music and said it really suited the tone of the trailer and that some of the sounds and effects made it quite a lot scarier than without music. They said it was easy to work out the plot and though it had a good storyline. However they did point out a few areas for improvement. They said that there were to many title screens and to try and reduce the amount, also change what some of them said. They thought there should be a change at the end after the telephone tone  and we should add a short snappy clip that will make the audience jump.

So to conclude we though this was a worth while piece of research. We were able to make some good improvements to our final edit and got a good response from our target audience. Pretty much everyone said they would go and see the film after seeing the trailer except for a few exceptions, but that was only because they aren't horror fans. The picture to the left is some of the answered questionnaires.
