HOW TO...

HOW TO... BE A BEST MAN

As a preparation task for our new module (OUGD405) we all needed to carry out in depth research into a 'how to' in preparation for the studio brief next Monday (28/11). Everyone got a unique individual one, mine was "How to be a best man". 

By in depth research it meant carrying out primary and secondary research, showing qualitative and quantitative data.

Qualitative data e.g. "He was tall."

Quantitative data e.g. "He was 6 feet tall."

Primary research is research I carry out myself, e.g. Q/A's, surveys, interviews, etc.

Secondary research is research or information from another source.

Research must be all text based and not visual, such as pictures and videos. I think first things first, I need to plan out what I'm going to research so I have a guide that I can follow until the briefing. I'm going to try and take in the wider context of being a best man and what the roll involves
