Introduction:
Welcome!
Here you will find feedback and reviews from our target audience; below you will find a list of questions helping us and contributing to complete our final product. There are 15 questions for two sectors of our final piece and 17 for one. (15 for the poster and magazine, 17 for trailer), I thought this would be easier as I could get a crystal clear picture/idea of what they actually wanted to result from us. I video recorded at least one person as well as showing other visual forms of evidence, for each product as it would give us their real feelings and opinions; we felt it would also allow them to really express their desires to our team.The team especially loved this part of the process as it really helped us shape and graft our concepts because we knew what the audience was looking for.

I asked my questions using Facebook also, as I wanted to gather as much information as possible. Facebook users are exposed to different ads and trailer types.
Questionnaires:
I did 5 questionnaires, they included the same pictures and questions as the one on here to make my results easier to tally. I chose to do 4 different ways of gathering info as not everyone likes being filmed or has whatsapp etc. So I found making more ways more successful.
