What days do audiences go to the cinema?
The most popular days that people go to the cinema on is usually a Saturday or Friday. However Tuesday or Wednesday is also a popular day to go to the cinema as these are the days cinemas have promotions such as 'Meerkat Movies'.
What are the most popular genres?
The most popular genres are mainly comedy, drama or rom com. The genre of film which is watched usually depends on the age and gender of the audience. As the main people who answered my survey were teenage females this shows which genre of film that audience likes to watch.
How do audiences hear about films?
Audiences hear about films through many different ways, however the most popular way is mainly always social media or trailers. Trailers are a very good way for audiences to hear about films as they give an interesting preview and can be watched very easily for example on a television advert or on YouTube.
Do audiences prefer US,UK or other nationality films?
I believe audiences prefer US films mainly as US films usually include big movie stars and have much larger budgets which will all lead to making a very popular film. However some people may prefer UK films as they are very original.
Do audiences like 3D films?
Audiences mainly do not like 3D films. This could possibly be due to having to pay more money than usual to watch a film in 3D at the cinema or because glasses must be worn when watching it.
What other ways do audiences watch films aside from the cinema?
Another way audiences watch films aside from the cinema is Netflix. Netflix allows people to pay a monthly fee to be able to watch all films available. Another way audiences watch films aside from the cinema is online. You are able to download films on for example Apple TV for a certain price and then be able to watch them at home.
Who do audiences go to the cinema with?
My survey results show that most audiences go to the cinema with either one or two other people. It is very rare that audiences will go to the cinema in a large group.
When and where are audiences most likely to go to the cinema?
Audiences are most likely to go to the cinema in their local area. If there is a specific film people want to watch and it is not in their local cinema many people will wait until it comes out on DVD to watch it. However some people will travel to different cinemas to be able to watch a specific film or will even travel to a cinema as the cinema has unique features such as sofas instead of chairs.
Most students take for granted the audience part of the question. Regardless of what comes up you must tackle not only audience going habits and tastes but how the films target and market to their audiences. The paper is called Audiences and Institutions. Just as important as your Film case studies.
