Green Blue Red   Black   Yellow  Purple Other (Please Specify):      16) In horror films what gender would you prefer the victims to be? Male    Female   We asked questions 10-16 because we wanted to find out from the audience what out teaser trailer should consist of  so that we create a teaser trailer our target audience would be eager to watch.  The results of question 10 showed that our target audience prefer our demented teacher storyline, this gave us an idea on what story line to go on. Question 11 us that more that half of our target audience preferred a realistic setting to a fictional one i.e based in school buildings rather than in a make believed spiritual place.  The results of question 13 showed us that most people enjoyed the Freddy v Jason teaser trailer, this allowed us to look into reasons why they may have liked the teaser trailer. Question 14 was important because we as a group wanted to know if it was important to use a colour scheme/filter for our trailer as such film trailers like paranormal activities 2 they used a blue filter to show night time on the CCTV like camera, however most people did not mind if a filter was used or not, so we did not have to restrict ourselves.  Question 15 was just to see if people were to want a colour scheme/filter what colour would they want to see, most choose red. For question 16 we wanted to see who our target audience would like to see as a victim, over 25 of our target audience would like to a female victim.
