Analysis of questionnaire

I made a questionnaire about the idea of my short film and I gave it out to 14 people to fill out and to find out whether they agree with my idea or not. 

I asked a question on what Social Realist themes and issues they would be like to watch and the results were:

Drug Abuse	4
Alcoholism	1
Domestic Abuse	4
Teenage Pregnancy	1
Relationships	1
Emotional Disorder	3

Drug abuse - 28.6%

Alcoholism - 7.1%

Domestic abuse - 28.6%

Teenage pregnancy - 7.1%

Relationships - 7.1%

Emotional disorder - 21.4%

The two that link in with my idea for my short film is domestic abuse and alcoholism. The main ones the people who filled out my questionnaire chose was domestic abuse and drug abuse. This is important for my research because drug abuse and domestic abuse are high figures for what people want to see made as a film to make others more aware and I would potentially change my overall idea but because of the time constraints I cannot follow through with that. I feel from what people cannot see is that alcoholism can be a factor to why someone is being domestically abuse and that is why I have chosen those two themes and issues. 

I asked another question, "my themes and issues are domestic abuse and alcohol abuse, how likely are you to watch my film?

Results

1 - 0%

2 - 21.4 %

3 - 14.3%

4 - 50%

5 - 14.3%

Overall from the results this shows that I have a market for my film because 50% of the people who filled out the questionnaire said they would most likely watch my media product which is very important to me as I want to make the public more aware of these issues that can occur to anyone.


Finally I asked my audience that is their any themes/issues that they consider to be under-explored in film, and some of the responses they gave back gave me more ideas for future films; such as: elderly abuse, terminal illness and gender discrimination. These issues are under-explored within the filmic world, therefore would be good projects to do in the future but someone did put down and say domestic abuse is under-explored and I agree with that because there is not enough awareness out there for domestic abuse and not many people wouldn't know what to do if they are in that situation.


Overall this questionnaire and the feedback I have received has forwarded my idea and has shown me that there is an audience that would watch my film.
