Results of final questionnaire

Olivia Jake and Gainluca

Q1- Are you interested in new unsigned music and unknown acts?

Yes

No

This question enabled us to identify if the person in question had an interest in our

genre and would therefore offer useful information. Consequently all 50 people who

filled in the survey answered positively to the this question. Otherwise through the

online questionnaire they were not allowed to move forward to other questions or

we politely told them they were not needed.

Q2- Do you have a greater interest in the music (with regards to a band) or behind the scenes

more personal action ?

Musical

Personal

The results of this question enabled us to tailor the information received to suit the target audience.

It is important that within our music documentary we provide the audience members with content

which will interest them and will make the documentary successful.

The results show that people have a greater interest in the musical element of a documentary

however it is also important to create variety and show personal viewpoints and perspectives within

our documentary. We will be looking to cross between the two within our documentary. There were 7

points between the two therefore this would imply that the target audience wouldn’t be put off by a

mix of the two filmed elements together which is what we had hoped for the production.

3.Have you watched music documentaries previously?

Yes

No

This question enabled us to establish how familiar our audience are with music documentary's. The

results of this question have the potential to make us reconsider the target audience. It was

important within this question that we gained posative feedback to ensure the viability of the music

documentury.

The results of the questionnaire show that the majority of our audience do have an interest in music

documentary's which is positive feedback for our production, therefore no changes will need to be

made to the target audience. Although we would expect that are audience would be within a low

income bracket, we would expect that they are educated within this particular genre of unknown

music. Which stereotypically attracts audience members who have a particularly strong interest in

our genre.

Q4- If yes, have you enjoyed music documentaries?

Yes

No

The results of this question is also positive as it shows that our audience, who stereotypically a have

a more sophisticated focus on the music a band makes. Also enjoy music documentary's. This is

positive and will mean no changed need to be made to the audience or type of documentary.

5. What form of narrative presentation most appeals to you?

Voice over narration

Text-based narration

No narration

Within this question we wanted to identify what the audience members preferences where, with

regards to the way in which added information is provided throughout the documentary. As Narration

is conventional for documentary's, whilst doing genre and form research this became obvious to our

team.

The results provided a more varied response, therefore within our production we will have to look

into a variety of different methods and further research into narrative types in documentaries.

However the results do show that the audience would like some form of narration throughout the

documentary.

6. Within the poster, which will be used to advertise the documentary, which colour scheme

most appeals?

Black and white

Feminine colors (Pinks)

Masculine colors (darker shades)

Within this question we were looking to find information which could be applied to the ancillary

products. The results of this question will provide us with information regarding the favored color

scheme of our target audience. The results show that our audience favored masculine colors or

Black and white. Consequently we will not be including stereotypically female colors within the

ancillary products and production. This was expected however the color scheme we will look to

keep in keeping with the male dominated genre. Throughout the genre and form research it was

difficult to establish a pattern with one particular color, therefore we be looking to use one of the

above associated colors.

7. Would you prefer this poster to be iconography or imagery associated with the bands?

Images

Iconography

Within the research we noticed a trend for the use of iconography within film posters. However

commonly images are used. Images within the questionnaire were Cleary more popular therefore

we will conform to this stereotypical use of images. Within the ancillary we will be looking to use

images to front the film poster and add additional images to our written piece.

Within our piece we will be looking to mix iconography with imagery, to provide a unique look and to

connate the concept that is the artists are unsigned.

8. In an article discussing the production, would you rather it be focused around

text or pictures?

Text-based

Picture-based

This question looked to provide us with information regarding what people want the focus to be

within a production. The results show that our audience have a greater interest in images within the

production, this will be reflected within the ancillary products.

Within our ancillary text is important as the article will be within an educational magazine, therefore

we will look to change the presentation and mix it with images.

9. Would you rather the article act as an extension of the production (more

information regarding the bands) or review of a music set?

Extend

Review

Within our production we will be looking to concentrate more on the review element of the bands.

This was expected as it provides audience members with additional information regarding a band

and how there performance was.
