Industry task 7- Audience cinema going habits

What days do most people go to the cinema?
Most people go to the cinema on the weekend as they have the day off and there are more film times that they can attend because they are not working or at school.

What genres are the most popular?
The most popular genres are action, comedy, drama, and documentary.

What was the top film in these genres?
SPECTRE, Pitch Perfect 2, Fifty Shades of Grey, and Amy were the top films in these respective genres.
How do audiences hear about films?
Audiences hear about films from adverts on TV and trailers online mostly, with word of mouth also spreading the release of a film. Sharing YouTube links of the trailer increases the exposure of the film greatly.

Do audiences prefer US,UK of foreign films?
Audiences prefer the big US blockbusters because lots of money is spent on making these exciting films. Some UK films also have these massive budgets, but it is more common and more successful from a big six film company, which are all located in the USA.

Do audiences like 3D films?
Depending on the genre of the film, most audience members prefer not to see films in 3D because the tickets tend to cost more and not a lot of the film actually features scenes where the 3D stands out.

What are other ways that audiences watch films other than the cinema?
Many people watch films on websites that they subscribe to monthly, including Netflix and Hulu.

When and where are audiences most likely to go to the cinema?
People are most likely to attend the cinema when a popular film comes out (such as the blockbusters that are released in April/May time) and due to the sheer number of cinemas, most people will attend in London.
