British horror film research

Hey guys, could you take out 5 minutes and just fill out this survey for me? I am doing research for my school project on British cinema and my own film idea.

First a few questions about yourself.

1. Are you Male or Female?

2. How old are you?

British films

3. What British films have you seen and which was your favourite?


4. What are three things you expect to see in British films?
1.
2.
3.

Cinema

5. Rate these factors in order of importance (1 being most important, 4 being least important)
_____ Genre
_____ The Hype around the film
_____ Actors
_____ Its place of origin (i.e if it is a Hollywood block buster or and independent film)

6. What is your favourite type of film?

7. How do you usually view films? ( i.e At the cinema, Download them (at time of release), Download (Not at time of release)Wait for the DVD to come out, Other (please state))

8. What makes you decide to see a film at the cinema?


My Film Idea
My main character, a woman in her 20’s is browsing the web. She comes across a link and clicks on it, it leads her to blank, red webpage. She thinks nothing of it and moves on. But when she starts receiving strange emails leading her back to the site she begins to get suspicious, especially when pictures of herself taken from the webcam, but not by her, start appearing on the page. She investigates and seeks comfort in a forum featuring other women who have had the same thing happen to them. Little does she know this is only happening to her. There are no other women. Only one man. Watching her.

9. What is your initial reaction to the film?

10. Does it sound like a Psychological thriller?
11. Would you go to see this movie at the cinema?
12. Why?

13. Would you suggest any changes? If so, what?

Possible Actors/Actresses
Main Character - Jodie Whitaker

Sinister antagonist (bad guy) - Mathew Baynton


14. Are you familiar with Jodie Whitaker and her previous work?
15. Do you think she would be a good choice of actress for this film?
16. Why?
17. What other British actress would you suggest instead?
18. Why?

19. Are you familiar with Mathew Baynton and his previous work?
20. Do you think he would be a good choice of actress for this film? 21. Why?
22. Who would you suggest to star instead?
23. Why?


Thanks guys! It is highly appreciated :)

I'm not going to answer your questionnaire, mainly because I'm tired of answering these things. I just want to make a comment on your film idea:

Film is a visual medium. People need things to look at in a movie. Your entire film takes place in front of a computer. That's not a very interesting situation.
