Feedback #4 - research assessment

Owen, you have made some effort to respond to my previous feedback and have improved your planning progress and this is evident in the improved standard of your work over the project. You do attempt to use critical theory and are documenting changes to concept, however you still need to improve on this – be more interactive, use images, embed links, improve design. Also – I understand your concept from our discussions, but can’t visualise it from the blog – be more explicit as to your plans. As it stands, your planning research is a L3 – 14/20

Nathan, you haven’t made the improvements as I identified and your research is the minimum. You also haven’t met interim deadlines. You have carried out some research, but not always focused and as far as I can see, the technical analysis is on the same video as the previous analysis. You must improve your approach to this significantly. Current research planning grade L2 10/20

General feedback:

• Concept development has improved, but your planning at this crucial stage needs to be much improved
• Analysis of the first shoot needs to be MUCH more detailed – photos? Detail on shots, weather, issues with camera, tripod, shots tried, problems…
• Upload pitch slides
• Photos of band
• Reflection of recce in drama studio
• Post evaluation of audience research
• Nathan – your posts are not very well laid out; you need to include images, highlight key words, add more detail
• Comment on each other’s posts – this is a way for ALL group members to be involved in discusson and collaboration and to show that you are reading each other’s research
• There are no real reccie photographs or footage on the blog – this is vital
