Exploring Initial Ideas

Having been given the option of working in a group, I have considered working in a pair on a somewhat different investigation to my music video idea!
Having seen another students presentation on crime dramas, I have agreed to collaborate with them to create a documentary on the police force in the UK.
An investigation that would lead into this would be any of the following:

  • An exploration of the representation of women in crime drama.
  • Do women in crime drama follow the same conventions? A close analysis of (two or three) contrasting crime dramas.
  • How far are crime dramas a representation of a real police force?
  • An exploration of the representation of the police force in crime drama across (two or three) contrasting texts, in terms of nationality.
All of these ideas were brainstormed before we realised that our investigation and production should be more closely linked in terms of format. Although they link in terms of subject matter, in order to create a documentary on police force, I should investigate professional crime documentaries.
