Questionnaire

Audience Feedback

For my audience research I produced a questionnaire about music videos and about the band Muse, I did this to get a better insight into what people like about music videos. By doing this it gave me a better indication of what people wanted in a music video and whether my idea of a music video would be a good concept with the chosen song. My questionnaire consisted of 10 questions and was given to 10 individual respondents, the questionnaire involved both males and females, the demographic was mostly aimed at teenagers, which ranged from 17-19. This gave me an idea of what young people wanted and what they found interesting about different styles of music videos.

Over half of the respondents choose Kerrang and MTV as they're favourite T.V channel with only 30% choosing TMF, 50% choose Indie music as there favourite genre, with 40% choosing Dance, 30% of people opting for Pop music and a minority of 20% choosing Rap. This indicates that the majority of people like Indie music which is a favourite with channels such as MTV.

Many people liked music videos for the simple reasons such as wanting to see the band perform, others like music videos for there creativity and their style of the music video. Often people liked the narrative and storyline, they liked to see the video have more depth that could enhance the song.

The majority of the respondents had heard of the band Muse and several of they're songs many liked "Supermassive Black Hole" and "Plug in Baby", this showed that people were familiar with their types of videos and style of music.

By conducting the questionnaire we found out that by choosing Muse it was the right idea to have a abstract/artist video, it also helped that people were fans of Muse and could related the lyrics. By finding out this information we could see we were heading in the right direction, as Muse would be normally shown on channels such as MTV and Kerrang, that people like the genre of music and that but by creating an abstract video would completely fit with the style of song.
