Questionnaire

In order to gain feedback on how our target audience found our film, we decided to give out a questionnaire to 10 teenage students. These are the questions we asked:

Questionnaire for ‘Beyond Closed Eyes’

Answer the following questions on a scale of 1-10:

1. How effective was our cast selection?
2. How did you find the editing and continuity?
3. How well suited was the music and other sound effects to the sequence?
4. How appropriate were the location used?
5. How appropriate were the titles used?
6. How much did you enjoy watching the film opening?

Tick the appropriate answer:

7) Our film opening was:

• Dull
• Average
• Interesting

8) Would you watch the rest of the film?

• Definitely not
• Probably not
• Maybe
• Probably
• Definitely

Answer:

9) Do you think we could improve it? If so, how?

• Yes
• No

10) What was your favourite aspect of the film opening?

Results:

Here are the average results we received for the first 6 questions:

1) 8

2) 9

3) 8

4) 9

5) 7

6) 9

- Our most disappointing outcome was for question 5 about the titles used. When I asked the ones that gave lower results why they gave them, they replied that they didn't notice the titles which suggests that we should have made them more bold. I believe it is important to credit everyone who helped the production of our film opening.

- For question number 7, all of our target audience replied with the answer 'interesting' which we were pleased with.

- For question number 8, 4 people said 'definitely', 4 people said 'probably' and 2 people said 'maybe'. The 2 that said maybe were boys which suggest that our film opening is more for a female audience.

- The only ideas that our target audience gave to improve it was to have more action at the beginning to draw the audience in more

- For most people, their favourite aspect of the film opening was the dream as it added some mystery to the film opening straight away and opened up many potential story lines.
