                              Final ideas

The documentary that my group are going to be creating is going to be about Brighton and Hove Albion moving from the Withdean stadium to the Amex stadium. The mode of the documentary will show different features of the Amex stadium and will include some hisotic footage of the lead up to building of the stadium e.g the campaign. The style of the documentary will have voiceovers, 1v1 interviews with professionals, historic footage, and up to Date footage as well as fans views and thoughts.

Questionnaire

Before we made our documentary we all decided to create a questionnaire which would help us to decide what sort of documentaries people like to watch and whether they would like our idea, of stadium watch. Below is an example of my questionaire:

Evaluation of questionaire findings:

In total we handed out 40 questionnaires, 20 to females and 20 to males, we handed out an equal number to people of each sex because we wanted to get fair judgement of who would be out target market. From the results we found out that males were more likely to watch our documentary so we decided to aim it mainly at males. We also found out from our questionaire that people like a mix of intervies,voiceovers and montages so we decided that we will include a bit of each in our documentary.

We also found out that people dont like watching documentaries were the presenter just stands there are talks the whole time because it gets boring and repetitive so we now know to definately not do that. We also found out that 30 out of the 40 people we handed out the questionaire to knew about Brighton and Hove Albion moving stadiums and that 23 of them would watch a documentary on it so we knew that it would be popular with the public.
