We wanted to have an even balence of males to female on our questionaire to make sure it was a fair trail becasue males can have differant interpretations to females this is why we did half and half. female seem to like thrillers more than males.

  when we handed the questionaire out the main responss came from people of our own age group which was good as children under 15 should not really be watching thrillers any way we did give 2 questionaires out to people above our age group to make the test fair.








 The results showed us that the most popular type of thriller sub genre was a comedy. we couldnt really make a thriller given the budget and the equiptment it also had a large part to do with the amount of characters and the time in which we had to film. if you notice on the gaph to the left crime and action have the same number along with si-fi. We would of like to do a comedy thriller but the objects was a physiclogical thriller and so we consentrated on this.

  When we recieved outr feedback on this we were supprised at the closeness of the results with Donnie Darko and The Happening just squezing into the top their it was difficult to decide what to base ours on. with the results on the right we realised that people like dark thrillers and one that really make you think.

  As the chart shows, eerie music is by far the most popular. we took this on board as decide that we would create some music like this. we hope to use garage band to make our music if not then we can cut bits out of unsual royalty free music.

 The results here show that an abandoned house was the best place to set a thriller although the woods cam in very colse the only problem we had with the woods was trees getting in the way , other people in the woods and the woods is a typical placwe to have a thriller and is the same old and a bit boring so we diecide to use the village in which i live and some old barns. we used this info on where we could set our thriiler.





  All of the answers on the sheet were used so this gave us the idea that we were on the right lines on what is included on a thriller the top ones were special effects, sound effects and props. People though these were important as they would make a good thriller. upon this questions results we are going to use some special effects in our opening.

With the results shown we guessed that the female would be the victim and with this question in mind we would have a female as the victim to go with the convential style. A teenager was also quite high up this was a bit of a shock to use as we wasnt expecting that but with the female infavour that is what we will go with.

  The graph shows that majority of people watch thrillers every weeks and some every month. It supprised the group how many people watched a thriller once a week, we thought that most people would watch one once a month but we were shocked to find that they watch them so often, but with the current tv there are alot more thriller avaliabel to watch at any time of the day.

  Everybody who we got to fill in our quesstionnaire has had further post 16 education. This shows that people with education have filled in our results giving the impression that they have formed strong opinions on thriller films giving us reliable feedback.

  Television, magazines and the internet were shown to be the most popular sources where people discover factors of the media. Broadsheets and redtops were shown to have no impact on people of my own age discovering media through newspapers. This shows that modern day technology is over powering the older generation of media. If we were to advertise our thriller film it would be much more beneficial to do so through the television of the internet.

  Half of the participants said no to this question and half said yes. We discussed this information and came to the conlcusion that the question could have been too blunt. By people saying that they would not buy a thriller film doesn't mean they wouldn't watch them. It could just mean that renting one or seeing one on the internet or cinema would be preferable to people of our age.

 

 This question had a mixed response. The least popular were seeing advertisement in a newpaper or on the radio. Cinema television and on the internet were shown to be the most popular place for students between 15-18 to look. This gives us an insight into where teenagers research films and hear about what new releases are out. If we were to persue our film it would be best to do so through modern technology.
