The questions I created were:
- On a scale of 1-10, 1 being strongly dislike, 10 being strongly like. How much do you like thriller films?
- What is your favourite film genre?
- Do the age ratings that films are given affect whether you want to watch them or not?
- Do you prefer films made by major film companies or independent filmmakers?
- What do you think must be in a thriller film for it to become a good film in your opinion?
I then asked these 5 questions to;
Callum, aged 18.
The answers he gave to the questionnaire;
- 7
- Fantasy/Action
- Not really but I think ones with older age ratings are usually more entertaining.
- Major film makers because they usually have a bigger budget.
- A really good soundtrack, I always think that this is what makes or breaks a film because the music reels you in and gets you immersed in the action, it makes you feel something whether its upbeat and exciting or sad and emotional.
Emma, aged 17.
The answers she gave to the questionnaire;
- 7
- Sci-fi
- No, i'll watch them all.
- Mostly major film companies but I'm willing to watching a film regardless of budget.
- suspense, but enough of a reveal to make the film worthwhile rather than just trying to make the audience jump or have so many questions they don't actually concentrate on the film.
These responses will allow me to gain vital information about the target audience, and what the potential audience finds key in the making of a good thriller film.
I gained permission from both respondents to publish their answers given and use photos of them.
