Questionnaire Analysis

We carried out a questionnaire on surveymonkey to help with our target audience research.

These are our results that we received from the 22 people that took the questionnaire.

1. We can see that the majority of people who took our survey were females with nearly double the number of males who took part in our survey. We can now make a judgement because romantic comedies appeal more to females than males, we can use the answers from the females,  as we have a large amount of replies and build up the Target Audience.

   2. This question 'how old are you?' gave us an idea of the a age group that took this survey. We can tell that 21 out of the 22 people who took the survey were teenagers, so now we know they were mostly female teenagers between the ages of 13-19. This helps with our audience research as we can begin to take our target audience into consideration. This question could have been more specific as we could have done individual ages rather than a group of ages because although we have the age range we do not necessarily know the exact age.


     3. What is your occupation?

Student (18)    Teacher (2)   Kitchen Fitter (1)   Other (1)

3. From this question we can see that most of the people who answered this survey were students, we can make an assumption so far from this survey that we have mainly a female audience who are students. This is good for the genre we have chosen as we can really get in detail with our target audience as we predicted that it was going to be females from the ages of 15+.

     4. What was the last film you watched?

In time (2)
Twilight (3)
Arthur Christmas (1)
Angus thongs (1)
Anuvahood (1)
The Thing (1)
Human Centipede 2 (1)
50 first dates (1)
Paranormal Activity 3 (1)
Taken (1)
Passion of the Christ (1)
Office and a Gentlemen (1)
Anchor Man (1)
Harry Potter (1)
Wild Child (1)
Good fellas (1)
Chuck 'n' Larry (1)
Horrible bosses (1)
Hangover 2 (1)

4. There was a wide range of films that the people who took our survey have watched recently. Most of the films that were watch are films that have been recently released in the cinema or DVD. There were some Romantic Comedy films within these results which allows us to see that these people do watch Romantic Comedies. An example of this is; Angus Thongs and Perfect Snogging, Officer and a Gentleman and 50 first dates.


     5. What are your hobbies?

Dance & Drama (4)
reading drawing writing poetry (6)
Shopping (4)
Football (5)
Other sports (9)
Cooking (2)
Music (6)
Cinema (1)
Other (6)

5. These are the answers that we received for the hobbies people have. Sports was a main category that most people take part in. Some of the other hobbies include dance & drama, shopping and music/concerts. These answers were from mainly the female's who answered the questionnaire.

6. We got a variety of answers for this question, the majority of people watch films at the cinema regularly. There is a disadvantage to this question, and we could have improved it as people may interpret the different types 'strongly agree', 'agree', 'sometimes', 'disagree' and 'strongly disagree'. For example; people might think sometimes is once a week whereas another may think that strongly agree is once a week. People might get confused with the question.

7. From the choices we gave the users we see that most of the people see film adverts on the TV with 21 responses and then Cinema with 14. This shows that these are the most common places film adverts are seen. We can say, from this information if we were to advertise for our film, that the most effective place would be using mainly TV.

This was the 'other' response.

8. The highest response from this this question was the internet, we can get a clear idea that when the users are on the internet they may come across advertisements etc. We can also see from this that news papers and magazines are not widely used so advertisement in these for the target population we aim to please would not be successful.

9. Please list three things you'd expect to see in a romantic comedy film.

Relationship (5)
Romanic Music (3)
Male & Female conflict - break ups (7)
Awkward Moments (5)
Kissing (2)
Love Triangle (4)
Freedom (1)
Hot Guy (5)
Hot Girl (1)
Love (3)
Exaggeration (1)
Sex (5)
Wedding (1)
Romance (4)
Comedy (9)
Cuddles (1)
Happy Endings (4)

9.There are alot of aspects of Romantic Comedy that have been brought up from this question, this helps us include parts and the main parts. The main aspects that have been said are Comedy, male and female conflict, relationships and some awkward moments which acts as comedy. We will take this into consideration and try to include as much of these elements as we can.

10. We asked for the genres to be ranked in their order of preference, the way the results were displayed was not clear but there was a high Romantic Comedy count so we can see that the responses we got from the questionnaire, the users are interested in Romantic Comedy's.
