Film Questionnaire

Before starting out on my project, I want to find out some information about audience's wishes. I need to know which film genres are popular, how people watch films, what would encourage them to watch a film etc. To do this, I have created a questionnaire that I will hand out to 20 people of varying ages and both genders. Here is my questionnaire:

Film Questionnaire

For my A2 media studies, I need to create a 90 second long film trailer, along with a poster and magazine cover to advertise my film. To do this, I need to know what you as an audience member want to see. If you could take two minutes to fill in this questionnaire I would be very grateful, and you would be helping my project a great deal. Thank you.
