Survey

After deciding my target audience would be girls aged between 14-18 years old, i wanted to start by creating a survey to get the girls feelings and emotions to certain sides of the media and society. For the survey i decided to ask 10 questions so that i could see what different aspects contribute to the feelings and emotions these teenage girls have towards what they see in the media. i wanted to touch upon who they aspire too, what they feel the media classes as 'beautiful', what they define as beautiful and how the pressures in society make them feel. 

I came up with these ten questions:

1. Who do you think is the most beautiful woman in the world and why?
2. What do you think the media defines as beautiful?
3. What do you define as beautiful?
4. Do you feel confident in your own body?
5. If you had the chance to change your body image, would you?
6. Do you receive a negative or positive vibe from the media about body image? Explain…
7. Describe in one word how the media/society makes you feel?
8. Do you feel influenced by the media on how to look/dress etc?
9. Have you ever been on a diet? if so, why?
10. Have you ever changed your appearance because of something you've seen/read in the media? if so, what did you change and why?

So far, 14 girls have filled out the survey and i wanted to make sure it was just the girls who were going to be in my images that would fill it out so that the survey is relevant to the images.
