Applied Media Research - Back to the Presentation


So we are back after Christmas and getting on with the Applied Media Research presentation. We have been looking at what cross platform television is to go towards our presentation. I found myself focusing on the more popular shows and what second screen interaction they had to offer.
We put together some questionnaires and gave them out, The envelopes contained 4 postcards each for a different section of the questionnaire. These were: age, gender, technology they owned, what second screen apps they used and information about how they use social networking with television.

As you can see from the graph, we did not ask the same amount of people from each age group but started to concentrate on more on the age that actually used a second screen, which leaned us more to the age 16-22 and 36-50+. We also asked an equal amount of male and females to see the ranges in gender but from the answers we got, the only range of answers was depending of peoples ages.

Most of the people we asked used a social networking site, most of them using Facebook with 14/20 people saying they had a Facebook account. 60% of the people we asked used a social networking site whilst watching the television. The ones that said this said they like to post statuses or tweet about what was going on and therefore can have online conversations with friends about the programme. With further investigation and research into this popular statement we realised there was clearly a lack of attention on the television programme itself, which could potentially lead to a serious issue for advertisers.
