Main text Questionnaire analysis

In my research I asked 10 people to fill out my questionnaire and here are the results that I have found out from my research.

1. How old are you?      16 & under __                    17- 21 __                22+ __


The majority of people I asked were ages 17- 21.

My target audience will be people from the ages of 16 and over.

2. What area do you live in? __________________
The areas that were written down varied from places in Bristol and mostly inner city areas such as Easton, Barton Hill, Eastville and St George.

3. What genre of Music do you listen to?
Pop __
R'n'b __
Rock __
Grime/Rap __
Classical __
Other __


The Majority of the people asked listened to Grime/Rap the most and secondly R'n'b and Other. This tells me that the people I'm asking have a reasonable amount of knowledge about the genre i am using for my music video, which also tells me that the genre i have chosen to use is popular within my target audience.

4. Do you watch music videos and how often? 8/10 people asked said that they watch music videos everyday, this is good because it means they have a good understanding of music videos around today.



... If yes where do you watch the music videos?
Television __
Internet __
Phone __
Other __


The majority of the people asked said that they watch music videos on the internet. This tells me that the internet is more popular for people in the ages of 17-21 so when I've produced my music video i will upload ti to a popular online website such as Youtube so that it can attract a bigger audience, especially from my target audience.

5.What do you think is typical of a female music video?
The majority of people asked this question said that  having the females should wear low-cut, revealing clothing, showing off particular parts of their body to attract the male audiences. Other people said that having a strong female singer, powerful female images and soul and passion is typical of female music videos.
Using these results from my questionnaires i will use powerful female images to embrace the female artist and make her wear fashionable, glamourous and some low-cut clothing to give her a strong female representation and an attraction to a big audience.

6.Do you think it is important to see the artist in the music video and why?
9 out of the 10 people that were asked, said that it is important to see the artist in the music video, mostly because it helps the audience to connect to the artist, you can associate the artist with the song for future reference and they are the main focus of the song so they should be shown in their music video.
In my music video i will show my female artist throughout the video because i think it is important to embrace who sings the song and also to give the artist recognition to the public.


7. Where do you think would be a good location for an r'n'b music video and why?
The majority of people asked said stereotypically it would be shown in a location that is stylish, urban area and large spaces for r'n'b artists that dance, luxurious and fashionable, but the location also depends on the lyrics of the song.
I plan to use a location that matches the lyrics of my song, but i will also try and bring an urban location into it to link to the r'n'b genre.


8.What do you think a typical r'n'b music video would have their characters wearing and why?

The majority of people that answered this question said that characters in an r'n'b video would most likely wear new stylish expensive clothing because they are representing fashion and showing off their style and fame. The colour of their clothes should blend nicely with the miss en scene and particularly if it is a female artist they would wear revealing, minimal clothing to attract audiences and give them a talking point.
My main focus of my music video will be the artist. to show this to the audiences i will get the female artist to appear rich, fashionable and stylish which will give them a typical female r'n'b representation.
9.Write any comments, opinions or improvements here:

  • If you are going to make an r'n'b music video then make sure the shots are slow and not too fast
  • Very clear and easy to understand, just be more specific on what gender artist your thinking about using so you get a brighter idea
  • I look forward to seeing your music video!
