Who would be the audience for your media product?
To find out who my audience is for my thriller opening, I would have to find out what kind of films people prefer to watch. To do so, I asked people what they would like to see in a thriller opening. So I decided to make a questionare, or mostly known as Survey Monkey. To get responses I shared the link to my questionare on socail networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter. By sharing my survey on facebook and Twitter meant that I could quicky get useful results.
Asking personal questions in my survey meant that I could get to know the group ofpeople that will be watching my thriller opening. Also personal questions are more friendly to the people answering my survey. Questions that help me to dicover what groups of people will be interested in my thriller opening. Questions that will find out what age and gender my audience will be.
Certain questions that help me get to know my audience as well as what types of films they like to watch are both equaly important. Asking what types of films they like to watch and how often they watch them. This information helped me to find out which genres are most popular. This helps me to understand what my veiwer wants to see.

By asking the audience their opinions on the thriller genre it gives me theire exact opinion on thrillers, I think this question is one of the most important questions. It tells me if they like or dislike thriller genres. With this information I could adaprt my thriller opening to not have "cheap thrills".
I shared my survey on Twitter and Facebook, this was done so I could gain a number of responses quickly and to my target audience. People took an interest in my survey because I got quick responses.
Survey monkey allowed me to analyse my responces easily by using their site. Most responses where helpful and allowed me to change my thriller to fit in with my target audience's preferences.

The advantages include, low cost, less time wasted, and convenient for respondents. The disadvantages include, cooperation problems, and people unable to acess the internet.

My survey results showed we what type of audience my video would be aimed at. My results told me that teenagers inbetween the ages on 15-19 would most be interested in my thriller opening. My audience also want blood and gore, as well as quick fast shots to create tension, because it will attrack them to my film. My questionaire also helped me to find out why type of films my target audience enjoy. Most of the people questioned said they prefer the action and adventure genre, unfortuntly I can't include this into my thriller opening. Because of the survey I am able to try and include what my audince want to see in my own thriller opening.
Most of my survey replies where my age, this is because I advertised it on Facebook, and most of my friends list is my age. Unfortunutly I didn't get a variation of ages answering my survey monkey. As good at social networking sites at sharing my survey, and getting quick results I didn't get a variety of ages answering it. If I was to share my survey again I would perhaps use a different way to share it, to get a variety of ages and no silly answers.

I found that it was important to ask my target audience if they had watched The Shining or The Woman In Black because I wanted to base my thriller opening on the fims. This is because I liked the dark ghostly woman figure from The Woman In Black. I also liked the quick cuts and shots from The Shining. I think because the Shining has the quick cuts and tense music it is very spooky.
