1.STATE YOUR GENDER?

Male40%

Female 60%

Chart TitleI chose to ask more females than males to answer my questionnaire because I thought more females would watch music videos.

2. WHAT AGE RANGE DO YOU FALL UNDER?

0-127%

13-2560%

25-3813%

39-5120%

Chart TitleI chose to ask this question because I wanted to see if a difference in age would make a difference in what music videos people watch and if I put this question and question 9 together it shows that age doesn’t really have a massive effect of what people watch because the older generations are watching the modern videos as well and actually enjoying them.

3. DO YOU WATCH MUSIC VIDEO’S?

Yes93%

No7%

Chart Title

This question should have really been first because if they answered no as one of the people I asked did then they shouldn’t of carried on. But this just shows how much of the population actual watch music videos now and it has become a trend and something cool to do.

4.HOW OFTEN DO YOU WATCH MUSIC VIDEO’S?

Daily 50%

Weekly43%

Monthly7%

Chart Title

50% of the people I asked said that they watch music videos on a daily basis this gives us an indication of the role that music videos have in a daily routine. It becomes part of someone's life if you do something everyday like brushing your teeth.

5. WHERE DO YOU WATCH MUSIC VIDEO’S?

Music channels61%

Internet28%

Phone/ipod11%

Chart Title

This question gives me a great indication of the impact of satellite television because it shows that the majority of people now have satellite TV and tend to watch the music channels that come with it.

6. DO YOU LIKE TO SEE DANCE ROUTINES WITHIN A MUSIC VIDEO?

Yes 73%

No27%

Chart TitleOver the past two years there has been a dramatic increase in the role of street dance. People now want to see this art in their music videos and reasons for this is that; people appreciate the good dancing within a music video, people think its exciting to see a dance routine, people say it looks good when being performed, some people like to see a dance routine so they can get ides for themselves to copy and create new dance routines.

7. WHAT GENRE OF MUSIC DO YOU PREFER TO LISTEN TO?

Pop 30%

Dance27%

RnB33%

Rap9%

Chart Title

I believe the main reason for this outcome is because RnB and pop are such wide categories that near enough anything can fall into them but categories like classical and country they have to be very specific.

8. DO YOU PREFER MUSIC VIDEO’S THAT USE SPECIAL EFFECTS I.E GREEN SCREENING

Yes60%

No40%

Chart TitleTechnology has increased dramatically in the past 10 years and due to this the want for special effects has become increasingly larger. Over half the the people asked said they would like to see special effects in a music video some of their reasons are; some people say it makes it more interesting because they can have whatever background they like, some say it avoids the video being boring and some say it makes the video look more professional.

9. WHAT IS YOUR PERSONAL FAVOURITE MUSIC VIDEO?

For this question I just wanted to put people on the spot and wanted them to think of there favourite music video. Some of the outcomes reflect on what people tend to watch no matter what there age or gender.Taylor Swift- You Belong With Me Lady Gaga- TelephoneBruno Mars- Lazy songBruno Mars- Lazy songBruno Mars- Lazy songJustin Beiber- BabyMichael Jackson- ThrillerScouting for Girls- Airplane songChicane ft Tom Jones- Stored in LoveFrankie Goes To Hollywood- Bruno Mars- Lazy song Black Eyed Peas- Where is the Love Snoop Dogg- SweatBruno Mars- Lazy songRobbie Williams- Angels

As you can see from these results most of them are fairly recent and we have on iconic video which 5 people chose to pick.

10. DO MUSIC VIDEOS HAVE AN INFLUENCE ON YOU?

Yes20%

No80%

Chart TitleI asked this question because from this I could also get an understanding of if people are active listeners or passive listeners because if you are an active listener you are less likely to be influenced by the music video as active means you just tend to have it on in the background whereas passive is when you actually sit and watch and connect with the music.
