We made sure that we had at least one member from each age range. This was done so that the results would be valid as different people of varying ages were surveyed rather than people from only certain ages, leaving others out.

2) Gender of audience

To make the results fair, we ensured that we questioned 10 male and 10 female members of our audience. This was done because males, for example, may favour action thrillers or crime thrillers as oppose to females who most commonly chose psychological thrillers.

3) Preferred thriller genre of audience

From this graph, we can conclude that most people prefer psychological thrillers and the least favourite type of thriller is action thrillers. This benefits our movie opening as it is also a psychological thriller and as evident from our survey, this would be popular. We allowed our audience to tick more than one sub-genre to get a wider idea of their preferences.

6) How often thriller movies are watched

We included this questionnaire to get a general understanding of how often our audience watch thriller movies. From the graph above, we see that most people either watch thriller movies once a month or less than twice a week. Only three of the twenty people surveyed watch thriller movies once every two months. From this, we can conclude that thriller movies are watched often.

Most of the movies listed above are psychological movies. We included this question to see whether psychological movies were popular or not as we are creating an opening to a psychological movie. From the pie chart, we can finalise that many people do watch psychological movies as only 9% of our audience questioned watched none of the movies mentioned. This is a promising finalisation for our movie.
