FMP RESEARCH

​​

There are many different ways of presenting your research plan... (which you can research...) 

eg detailed Gantt chart, bullet-point list, mind-map...

​

You must present your plan to your supervisor.

 

Only do research that’s useful.

​

Research is to support development of your product: not to do because we've told you to - every Hollywood film is many months of pre-production.

​

Things to research:

​

• Books,

• websites,

• articles,

• theory

• existing products,

• how-to do things (practical research),

• finding locations,

• which props, costumes,

• colour schemes,

• composition,

• sourcing actors, equipment [etc etc]

​

Decide - what is it I need to know

What is out there? Evaluate sources.

Watch / read / do the research

Test (if applicable)

Review and talk about how your project will be amended/improved.
