The fist question asked was ‘Are you male or female?’ This question was
asked to find out what type of sex agreed with our topic the most and whether
this was a biased decision or a factual one. We found that a majority of the
people asked, were female and that they were semi-biased.
Male
Female
The second question asked was ‘What age category do you fall in?’
This was asked as a general question. This established what types of ages
understood the real meaning of a documentary. I wanted to see if the level of
interest when it comes to different age groups.
The Most common age was the ages 15-17.

The third question asked was’ What are the main features that you look at in a
documentary’. This was asked to find out what people honestly look at as
soon as they turn to TV to watch documentary. Most people chose the ‘facts
and figures’.
Interviews
Cutaways
Facts & Figures
The fourth question was ‘Do you think the topic of black underachievement is
relevant in today’s society. This was to establish whether our subject is
actually relevant and does play a big part in our society, more than just a topic
to focus on. 80% of the questionnaire’s given out said yes that it is relevant in
today’s society. Most said this because they believe that it is something that
should be looked at and helped as this is leading to a more corrupt society.
Yes
No
The 5th question asked was ‘What would you expect to be explored within this
documentary?’
They had 3 choices. The most common option chosen was ‘Interviews with
people that relate to underachievement’ 40% chose this which was the
majority as the rest of the options were varied.
The 6th question was ‘Are there suggestions for other issues that you would
like you be explored within the documentary’ most people chose ‘how other
races underachieve also’. This was chosen because a different amount of
people watch documentaries and un-biased different opinions are
necessary.
Yes
No
The last question was ‘Do you agree that there has been an
underachievement within the male black community’ 65% of the
questionnaires I gave out said that there is. This was interesting to see as it
helped us confirm that our documentary topic was effective and essential to
investigate.
Yes
No
After receiving the results of the questionnaires, pie charts were created to
provide a visual representation of the results. The results allowed us to have a
better understanding for what is important when producing a film for our target
audience. We were also able to alter parts of our script and make appropriate
changes to our documentary proposal.
