We then handed out our questionnaire which had three options to choose how long our horror trailer should last. With the results, 27 people felt an ideal trailer should be around 30 seconds to 1 minute. We now have a better insight for the length of our trailer.
Our questionnaire is nearly even in terms of men and women who answered them for us.
Our final question in our questionnaire was going to help us give an estimate to what the audience expects to see a horror trailer. Out of the people we questioned, the pie chart shows that more than half of them would like a horror trailer to have a plot which narrates the story along with action scenes.
The correlation we found in our graphs is that many of the people who expect action in horror trailers were between the ages of 16-19. Where as people who want to be introduced to characters are between the ages of 28-32+.
This information could possibly explain that the younger demographic who watch the horror genre want to see action and less of the story, yet the older demographic from the age of 28+ want more information.
