Questionnaire Results

My findings show...


Question 1- Gender?
50% Female
50% male

In my questionaire i asked the question, 'Gender?' this is because i can see that my findidngs are equal to both genders and my results won't be biased. Also by having this information i can see what females prefer and what males prefer. I will try and aim my music video at both genders in the audience so i have a larger target group, however this may not be easy to do as, different people have different music tastes.

Question 2- Do you watch music Videos on a regular basis?
20% Yes
30% No
50% When its on i will watch them

From the findings it shows that 'When its on i will watch them' has the most results, this means that i need to make sure that the music video is eye catching through out the whole song. Also, only 20% will  put on a music video.

Question 3-What is your favourite music genre?
40% Rock
0% Classical
20% RnB

Half of the target audience said that the lyrics have to match up with the video this could be because that some times if the lyrics are complicated to understand, by having a music video as well will help the audience understand it.

Question 7- Do you think music videos are better with special effects ?
80% yes
20% no

80% said yes therefore my music video will have special effects, also by havinf this feature it can help capture the audiences attention, as 50% of the targeted audience said they would only watch a music video when its on.

Question 8-Do you think music videos are better with special effects?
20% Narrative

These results dont help me in deciding whether my target audience would rather a Narrative, Performance or abstract.

The findings show that the internet is the most popular device to use while watching a music video.

Question 10-Do you prefer to be able to relate to the music video? or for it to be unrealistic?
