Progress statementInitial planning and ideas

Summary… We brainstormed together to discuss different

ideas that we could use for our documentary topic.

We took pictures of our inspiration for our ideas and posted these on our blog, along with the strengths and weaknesses of each topic to make a final decision.

We chose our final topic – Social media on education – this had the least disadvantages and we felt we could relate to this most, benefitting our research and planning.

Strengths We worked effectively as a group and came

up with a wide number of ideas. We also all got inspired by several things meaning our range of ideas was also wide.

We communicated together to eliminate all but one of our ideas.

Different software was used during this – Prezi, meaning we gained more creative skills and more knowledge into the different uses of this software.

Weaknesses/areas to improve Despite our strengths, we have an area

where we could improve. Instead of just placing the pictures of

our inspiration on a post, we could have further used our knowledge of different types of software and presented the pictures in a more exciting way.

What to do next… The next stage of planning will be

audience research. We plan to use questionnaires and focus

groups to find out what will attract our intended audience so that our documentary will include elements that they’ll be interested in.
