Pie charts and conclusions

Pie charts and conclusions
Here are the pie charts for our tally's:










Out of the 30 questionnaires we handed out, 15 of the participants were male and 15 were female so our documeanty will not be bias a particular gender.









The majority of the participants were aged over 41, so our documentary may be weighted towards that age group. However, we did have several from the 36-40 group and the 26-30 group, so this balances out any bias.








Out of the 30 participants, almost a third of them picked blue as their favourite colour, meaning that we should use the colour blue in our documentary, perhaps in the title sequence, rolling credits or the graphics. Red was the second most popular colour so we might also include that.










More than a third of the participants said that the genre pop music was their favourite type of music, so our documentary should include mostly music from this genre so it will appeal to our target audience. The second most popular genre was rock music so our documentary could include some music from this genre too.










More then half of the participants said that they generally watched television between 17:30 and 21:00 which is a clear majority which you can see form the pie chart above, so we should aim to put our documentary out during these hours so that the target audience will be more likely to watch it and we will get more viewers.










The majorityof the participants said that they watch Channel 4 the most so our documentary should be broadcast on this channel. However, almost a third said that they most often watched BBC1, so our documentary could also be broadcast there as there was little difference between the the two.








The majority of the participants said that they watched television the most on a Friday, so our documentary should be broadcast on this day. Sunday was also a popular day to watch television so if our documentary does not fit into the schedule of a Friday then we will probibly use sunday.








A large majority of participants said that they think greed is bad, so this helps us to decide which way the audience already lean so we know which way we should portray the idea of greed in our documentary.








Out of the 30 participants, 20 said that they think money does make you happy, so we can use this in some way in our documentary, perhaps as a statistic e.g. "two thirds of people asked said that they think money makes people happy".


Here are some audio clips of people answering our questionnaire :
