Focus Group Questionnaire 1

This questionnaire will be given to the 5 members of my focus group, and will hopefully give me a deeper insight into what the consumer wants from a film of my chosen genre.

Focus Group Questionnaire 1

1. In your opinion, which gender is more commonly the protagonist? What does he/she wear? Doe she/she conform to a stereotype?

2. In which setting would you most likely expect a Pyschological Horror/Thriller to take place?

3. How many characters would you expect to find in the generic group which are together at the start of the film? Or would you prefer the protagonist alone?

4. What is the "Villain"of the film? Is it a person or something else entirely? What does it wear? How does is act?

5. Which features of a "Villain" shock/scare you the most? Which aspects would tell you that he/she is the "Villain"?

These questions are relatively long-winded, and force the focus group to give me lots of detail with regards to what they expect to find in a film of my genre.
