The first task that was set was listening to Faye explain the definitions of research terminology and to then write the definitions down in our own words. I have learnt in the first task what the difference between quantitative results and qualitative results are. I already knew the other meanings already but it has made me confident going over them again.
1. What age are you?
2. What type of genre do you prefer to watch?
3. Do you prefer linear or non linear short films.
4. What duration of time would you prefer to spend watching the short film
5. What is it you enjoy about the genre you prefer

We then filled in each others survery's and then went onto analysis our feedback for our short films and filled in a word document about some questions. I then copied and pasted the questions and answers I filled in below.

What type of
research did you do?
I did a survey
and collected primary data as I found out the information for myself.
What type of
information did you gather?
I gathered
mostly quantitative results with one question giving me qualitative results that
could have got me asking them further questions about the answer.
Who was your
target audience?
The majority of
audience was aged between 16-19 with 93.33% and the rest of the audience
between 20-30 with 6.67%
How could this
information help improve your short film?
The information
could help me with who I stereotype my ideas for and what things id stereotype
on the most preferred genre of short film selected. I also collected why they
liked that genre so that could help me with what to include in the short film.
Below give a
summary of your results: (remember if you have ten responses that means each
answer is worth 10% of your overall feedback.)
A summary of my
results would be that the highest percentage of ages who took the survey was
ages between 16-19 by 93.33 and then a small percentage of people aged between
20-30 with 6.67%. I found out that nobody enjoys the sci-fi genre so that will
defiantly will not be used in my short film and that by the most popular
demands was the genre of comedy and horror so maybe I could do a hybrid genre
that includes them both. I gathered that the majority of people prefer the
story to be told in a linear way. I gathered that the highest vote of what
amount of time they prefer to watch on the short films was a close choice
between 1-4 minutes and 5- 9 minutes. By the highest vote it was 5-9 minutes
with 46.67& of votes. I gathered
that most people enjoy seeing blood and gore if the short film was to be based
on horror, there was more horror answers than any other.
Look at your
results, what do they say?
The highest
percentages:
Ages: 16-19,
93.33%. Genre: Comedy, 40%. Horror, 33%. Presentation of story: Linear, 73%.
Duration of short film: 5-9 minutes, 46%.
How will you
present this information?
I will present
this information in a graph or I will try and take this information I have collected and try and include things that is suitable for the highest percentage of votes.
Summarise the
process and evaluate what impact it will have upon your short film?
The impact it will have on my short film will be that I try and include some things that others liked and try and benefit there likes and dislikes and try to avoid what they dislike. I will be using a linear way of explaining the story as it was the most voted as its straight forward. I will be trying to use a hybrid genre as there was different votes on what genre people liked so I could try and include different genres so that it keeps the audience happy. I will also consider the genre's nobody liked and not include them at all.


Excellent work, although remember; if you asked the question "Do you prefer linear or non linear short films?" to someone without an education in media, would they understand the question?
