How to get a Level 4 in Research and Research- ensure you cover all bases below:

Research and Planning

Initial Pitch

Thoughts on the initial idea (INDIVIDUAL)

Research into Similar Media Texts (GROUP and 2/3 INDIVIDUAL). One post from each group member- what is the specific element in this text which will shape your eventual music video?

Target audience (INDIVIDUAL/GROUP). How would you describe the demographics and psychographics of your target audience? How would they potentially consume your product.

Audience Questionnaire (GROUP). Form a focus group, video your discussion and analyse your feedback. At least 3 posts on this- a) questions, b) actual video/audio podcast c) analyse of results.

Planning meetings (GROUP). Pics and summary of discussion.

Storyboard and Animatic (GROUP). Film post-its and create animatic- this is now essential at this level. Do not shoot before storyboard is complete.
