Background Into Research

Over the summer holidays I spent around 3-4 hours a day watching different documentaries to try and understand the forms, norms and different types of documentaries. The three main documentaries I watched were: Planet Earth, Nature's Great Events and Life. These are all nature documentaries but gave me an idea of how to carry out filming and things to include, over the next 3 months I began to watch more real to life docs which included Sun, Sex and Suspicious Parents (which is based around young men and women 18-21 going out and having a fun time), Kurt and Courtney (1998) and Biggie & Tupac (2002).
