Unit 6: critical approaches to creative media products - Task 1

Quantitative audience research
Quantitative audience research is commonly used in Market research in order to find out what the majority desires. Film and television production companies use this determine what kind of products their target audience's desire. For example with the recent Dark knight Batman Trilogy directed by Christopher Nolan. The other companies that produced comic Super Hero movies tried to make their movies more dark, even though in the source material is rather light in content like Spiderman.


Qualitative audience research
Qualitative research is where a select group of people which share common key characteristics discuss their likes through a focus group. It allows for topics to be further explored in further depth and details.





25/11/16 - Documentary interview - Mrs Gaughn

On Friday 25th November 2016 Myself and Chloe Handley interviewed Mrs Liz Gaughn for my Documentary. Mrs Gaughn is the Learner support Manager for All Saints Academy in Ingleby Barwick  which is where I attended Secondary School. The questions included what did she do day to day, what kind of students does she interact with And what was her first impression of me.


About 2 minutes into the interview we were interview by one of the school care takers closing one of the windows
after we started the questions again we changed so it was me having a conversation with Mrs Gaughn. about what triggers my anger and then we moved over to the couches to speak about the nostalgia about being back in the building of the secondary school I had attended.


it was a very successful interview all and all
