Once we were finished with the survey and were satisfied with it, we all sent it out to our friends on social networking sites such as Facebook and Twitter and also distributed the survey through messaging servers like WhatsApp, which nearly every smart phone owner has. Further on, I asked all my friends to share the suvey on tho their own friends, especially to friends who are in their 20s. This way we were able to reach to a wider audience.
In total we were able to get responses from 72 people, aged between 15-35 years old.
We also asked them about who they would like to be the lead character? The results were not that surprising as I did kind of expect most of them to vote for both as the audience likes to know what is going on through both's perspectives.
When asked about what they believe an opening scene should start off with, 44 responded with music, whilst another 9 said both. I was expecting the majority to be dialogue as usually at the beginning of a film, the viewer is bursting with unanswered questions which they want to be answered as soon as possible. We will definitely keep this finding in mind whilst planning our opening scene.
Another interesting finding is the answer to the ethnicity question. The majority of Rom-Com's which are made, usually always have white character in it who would either be British or american. We had expected the same to show in our findings, expecting that the audience have gotten so used to the idea of white leads already. However, as you can see in our results is that the White race actually drew together with the Asian race but the majority voted that they don't really mind what race is presented therefore 'Any'.
