[Radiant]

I think some of your questions are unclear.

For instance,
15) What do you think of movies dealing with political issues?
there's a huge difference between, say, Pearl Harbor, and Fahrenheit 9/11. Both obviously deal with political issues, but do it completely different, and it seems that most people who like either of those hate the other. So what exactly do you mean?

Likewise,
12) What is your view on full or partial nudity used in a movie?
does "good" mean you're watching porn (i.e. you want nudity in the movies you watch), or that you don't mind nudity in movies? If the latter, how is that different from "don't care"? Likewise for offensive language - does "good" mean you want offensive language in movies, or that you don't mind it?

What does
13) What do you think of comedy based on awkward situations?
mean? Example please?

questions 10-15 were rushed, so please forgive me and my teamates (we take different classes and rarely get the chance to meet each other, etc)

as for comedy based on awkward situations... well eg. The office? Curb your Enthusiasm? Abigail's Party? Sometimes even 'friends' have awkward situations.

I'm in class right now and the deadline has ended, thank you for your responses. I will pay the community back one day (via games).

My teacher says that later on I might want to do further reaserch, so there might be another questionare in the future.

Thank you, thank you all! ^_6

I'm in class right now and the deadline has ended, thank you for your responses. I will pay the community back one day (via games).

Oops I was about to fill it in now (I was short on time yesterday). Good luck anyway.

[vertigoaddict]

I spent the whole night last night handing out these questionares (and getting answers) in the mall. I came back home around 12 pm - 2 am (I'm not even exagurating this time, I'm effing serious)  and couldn't sleep, I still haven't slept.

I feel tired and after the discussion I had with my teammates, it really feels like my efforts were for naught. I'm just so tired and I can't sleep, at least not properly; I haven't had a proper nights sleep in months.

They just ditched my ideas so quickly; to be honest it depresses me more than it pisses me off. Why is it, that whenever I work so hard, try my very best, it ends up bad one way or another?

[Tuomas]

Welcome to the world of politics. Seriously though, before starting work it's usually best to make completely sure that your work will be appreciated. Take it from someone who's spent whole weeks handing out propaganda in the streets. Seriously, there's nothing more useless than doing something worthless. There's work to be done for several causes, but if you don't do it right, in the sense of consensus between the goal and the means as you in your team define it, well, basically it will only make you tired and realise it has been useless, and that's loss of working power.

I've basically realised it's always better to ask before doing anything, even if it's just two people in the team. I don't mean to turn the knife in the wound, just some thoughts.

[Radiant]

They just ditched my ideas so quickly; to be honest it depresses me more than it pisses me off. Why is it, that whenever I work so hard, try my very best, it ends up bad one way or another?

What exactly were your ideas? By which I mean your hypothesis - what was the purpose of the questionnaire?

[Neil Dnuma]

They just ditched my ideas so quickly;

This is so typical of film/media class group work related to creating a film. Everyone has a vision, but noone is able to communicate it good enough. So, usually, it ends up on a compromise (=mediocre results). But filmwork is learning by doing, so it's rarely a waste. And maybe your ideas can be used in some ways at a later production

[PixelPerfect]

In the future when you're doing questionnaires you might want to research first about how to make one so that the results are easily processed to meaningful numbers and graphs. The choice between good, okay, bad and don't really care is not that useful because you can't really compare the results succesfully (ex. how does "don't really care" and "okay" correlate?). Try sliding scales of 1 to 5 where 1 is definite negative, 5 is definite positive and 3 is neutral to the matter at question. Graphs you can fairly easily build in programs like spss where you just input the results and the program does the rest.
