Audience Research

To carry out research into my potential target audience, I set a group of people some questions to answer related to my film idea.
The questions included:

• How old are you?
• How many times a month do you visit your local cinema?
• What is your favourite film of all time?
• What is your favourite genre?
• Who is your favourite actor/actress?

With these questions set out as a questionnaire, I was able to receive a result as to what a modern teen audience would want from a film. 

The results I found were that most teens would either go see a horror/thriller or a comedy film. This gave me the idea that the perfect film film for this audience would be an action comedy with a few aspects of a thriller. As teens/students are part of the age range that go to the cinema the most, it made sense to aim the film at them making people from 12-25 years old the target audience.
