instead of asking people directly about their hopes and fears i think it would be more interesting to ask them about a place that makes them happy, sad or scared. and then perhaps i would discover their true feelings, reveal more about their personality and get a more interesting and exciting response with a better narrative.
i would ask them about the place and get them to describe it, and then go there to make a soundscape and take photos... maybe! cliche and been done before in sophie calle's work 'the bronx', i like the idea but would definitely present it different to her. for example, close up poetic photography which doesn't reveal too much about the location could be interesting combined with text and audio... short bursts of imagery perhaps.
would be exciting if the descriptions, stories and sounds brought the area to life in the viewers mind without actually showing a picture of it.
of course this idea could be done in a different way, simply as 1 question sent out in text format..
Describe a place that makes you happy, scared or sad and explain why it makes you feel this way?
