Chart 4



We decided on orchestral from results.

Chart 3



From the results from our target audience survey we discovered that breaking the fourth wall was not something to even consider. We originally gave it some keen thought and after the results were analysed we saw that it wouldn't be favored in the way we thought it would

Chart 2



We took the oppertunity to ask people form our target audience what there favoured genre was and then from our target audience results we conclusivly decided to make our key genre, a thriller. This meant we was able to use some key features from this genre that would appeal to our target audience and make our project a hit and a success which was the ultimate goal.

Chart 1



The majority of people asked in our survey where between the ages of 18 and 25, so we decided to keep that age group as our main demographic. If we label a certain age group as a demographic then we can highlight certain features that would appeal to that age group through our research. We are then able to translate this information into our final production, this satisfies the majority of the audience and nearly 100% of our target audience.
