Video InterviewsExtra InformationDuring the process of me gathering research from the audience i thought that it would be important to mention that all participants were either the same age as me or older. This ranges from an age range of 17 - to early 20's. I did not restrict myself in to only using females or only males whilst gathering research and i have found that both genders equally are interested in the Horror genre.
