Preparing questions for evaluation task 4.

In order to find out our target audience we wrote a short list of questions to interview people:

Gender of the interviewee:
The question helps to establish the gender of our target audience.

How old are you?
The question helps to establish the age of the target audience.

Where are you from?
The question helps to predict the area, in which our thriller is likely to succeed most.

1. What's your favourite film genre?
This question will establish interviewee's preferences straight away.

2. Do you like movies about family drama? (yes/no)
Asking this question we'll know if people do watch that kind of films at all.

3. Do you find violence in movies disturbing? (yes/no)

This question will helps us to understand if people would feel uncomfortable watching our thriller or not.

4. Do you think that domestic violence is a topic appropriate for film-making? (yes/no)
Interviewees are showing their opinion and attitude towards our idea.

5. Would you still enjoy a movie if it has a tragic ending? (yes/no)

Here we are making sure our plot 100% fits the demand of the audience.

6. Do you think a female lead villain is unrealistic? (yes/no)

This question is mostly targeted on men - to see whether they would believe in the story.

7. Do you find films where the main character has a mental disorder interesting? (yes/no)

Shows whether our audience is likely to be interested in our film.

8. Have you seen Shinning by Stanley Kubrick? What did/didn't you like about it?

This is a practical question, which shows how many people who said they loved thrillers, films about family drama and violence have actually seen the most famous film in this category.

9. What do you like to see in a thriller film? 

A simple question, which allows us to check whether we've included the most popular expectations of our audience into our story.

10. On the scale from 1-10 how do you fell about violence in film? 10 being "good, I enjoy it, I don't mind at all" and 1 being "I hate it, it's inappropriate".


This allows us to check whether we keep our thriller within the framework of what is appropriate for the audience.
