Demographic Questionnaire Results

Demographic Questionnaire Results

From the questionnaire that me and Steven have made, we have got 13 responses back from people so we had decided to put this into some graphs, so that it would be easier for me and him to read off of and decided what we are going to do with the results to add into our documentary because of what the people that have taken the questionnaire want. For some of the questions that we have made, we have given the option that they can pick more than one answer if they like, so that we can find what everyone that has taken the questionnaire would like to see when they watch a documentary. 

Me and Steven wanted to know the gender of the people that are taking our questionnaire. From looking at this me and Steven have would now know what the 'Male' viewers would want to see within a documentary and we would try and add it into our documentary. However, this would be a lot harder to add in something that 'Females' would like to add in a documentary as, we have no responses back from any females giving us their opinion. 

This is the results from the questionnaire question that we asked about what would describe them self the best. Me and Steven got this idea from the Life Matrix theory so that we can get an better understanding of what kind of people we will be targeting are documentary at and from the results that we have got I can see that most people are 'Digital, free-spirited and creative' so me and Steven when it comes to making our documentary, will know the type of people we are targeting and try and make it in a way that they would like.

This is the third questionnaire that was on mine and Steven's questionnaire and we asked them people answering the questionnaire if they enjoyed watching documentaries. From the peoples responses that we have got, we have found out that most of the people that done this questionnaire said 'Yes' to that they like watching documentaries.

In the questionnaire that me and Steven done on 'SurveyMonkey' we asked the people doing our questionnaire what kind of documentaries do they watch. From the responses that we have received back we have found that there is a variety of what people like to watch but most people watch 'Recreations, Historical or Educational' so from these results me and Steven now know what types of documentaries the people doing our questionnaire like and we have found out that they do like educational documentaries which is what we are doing.

Me and Steven decided in our questionnaire that we was going ask the people taking the questionnaire, what makes you want to watch a documentary. From the results we have found out that mainly people like to watch a certain documentary because of the 'Content' of it so that they would know what they would be watching and decided if they would like it or not. From getting these results, me and Steven will make sure that we focus on the content because that is what people care about more than the TV channel or the marketing.

This question that me and Steven have put in our questionnaire which is, what kind of pleasures do you get from watching a documentary. This is Rick Altem's theory so we thought of this question because we believed it would be good see to what pleasures they would get from watching a documentary and try to add in the same sort of pleasures into our documentary. From this graph, I can see that most of the people that took the questionnaire have an 'Intellectual puzzle' pleasure when watching an documentary. So that the people that have done our questionnaire want to have an puzzle or mystery when viewing a documentary.

Me and Steven wanted to add in this question which is, when you are watching a documentary, which of these gratifications do you reflect on the most. From the response that we have got back, me and Steven have found out that people watch documentaries for 'Information and learning' purposes, so that they can get a wider range of knowledge of what is going on within the documentary. So from this new information that we have got me and Steven would want to add some facts that some people may not know into our documentary.

Me and Steven both agreed that we should add in this question which is, what do you want to see or hear in a documentary. From the results that we have got back from the people that have done the questionnaire we can see that the main things that they want to see in a documentary is 'A voice over' and 'Variety of camera shots'. So from getting this information, me and Steven would now know what we would need to add into our documentary.

This would link to the life matrix as, the results show that based off the results they want to learn from our documentary. Most of our audiences that are watching our documentary are; Digital, free-spirited and creative was a big surprise because me and Steven both thought that most of our audience would be; Active, caring, affluent and influential as we thought that parents would want to watch this documentary to see what school is like in the modern day and so that they would see what their child's school could be like.

Summary

From getting these results back from the people that done the questionnaire, we can what people would like to see in an documentary and what makes them want to watch certain documentaries which will help me and Steven when we make our documentary. We do have another 2 questions but we can not put these onto my graphs because it was them writing their own responses which me and Steven will take into consideration when we are making the documentary.

Me and Steven will use the results that we have received back to make our documentary what the people that done our questionnaire wanted. From the last few questions, me and Steven will know what type of demographic we will be aiming our documentary at and what will have to include such as 'Fly on the wall footage' or 'Facts appearing on the screen' to make our documentary look more professional which is one of the main aims that me and Steven want to achieve.
