Record of Extended Project Qualifaction: Supervisor discussions

Don Hiscock (15/10/2013):

Having completed the extended project before, I have gone through the process of choosing a topic already. I discussed with my supervisor if I will be able to use my previous notes to show that I have already chosen topics and how I knew which topic I do, in starting the EPQ again.
Don said that this was fine, and so now I have shortened the amount of work I will have to complete in order to find a topic I wish to base my EPQ on.

Becki Nash (22/10/2013):

A university student who helped discuss some of the work that she has begun and completed as well as discussing some of the class ideas as she went around to talk individually. While talking to me we discussed the next stage of my EPQ, what to base my script on.
We discussed certain genres, directors and styles to help me in deciding were to take my project next and to help me create a title for my project.

Mark Rose (5/10/2013)

Had a talk today in class discussing the importance of using multiple resources. In using more resources we are getting a better understanding of our topic and therefore a better outcome. As well as using multiple types of resources, using the correct resources is even more so important. In evaluating sources we are able to see what are the best ones to use, why they are good to use and how to evaluate them.
Keeping a record of all the sources we have used, the evaluation of our sources and a a final list of the best resources, will add to our research phase of our project and also the evaluation part.

Coming back from the Christmas holidays, I have has time to reflect upon my ideas and discuss them with Don. In the discussion it was suggested that i begin moving onto primary research e.g. Books, articles and documentaries. This should support the current research that I am doing, and further my knowledge.
I should also begin to look at concepts for my screenplay itself, and begin research once again but into ideas and themes on what it will be about, and develop any current ideas. With this i could use biographies and maybe even try and contact working screen rights for information.
