Audience Research

Get ideas from focus group about the programme. How existing documentaries target audiences? e.g Twitter. The most medium television prgrammes are using to target audience. Use twitter as a way of communicating with subject people. 140 character statement about what is good about their faith. Ways in which newspapers and magazines advertise documentaries. How Radio Times target audiences?

Promotion of programme through facebook and twitter. To put up portraits on the facebook page, to get a feedback response from people who have liked the facebook page. Using twitter we would create different hashtags around faith and our programme idea, for example #FaithOff or when presenting paired discussions using some of our focus group. Our participants should have public twitter accounts where people could follow them, But this is a tricky area for two reasons; the public/storke private relationship is central to religious faith. The twitters area is an area where there could be a lot of abuse. For example, There's a lot of nasty people out there like with the whoole Maajid Nawaz issue around Jesus & Mo controversy. Caroline Criado-Perez was one the first women to campaign to have women on the money in britain.

How many people read Radio Times?

Research for Ancillary Product

Looking at advertisements in newspapers for different documentaries we have realised that they are not that many advertisements for different documentaries in newspapers. We looked at 2 adverts. One for a programme called ''Brain Games'', and another for a programme called ''Hunted''.  Hunted is a programme about anti-gay gangs in Russia who hunt homosexuals and severely brutalise them as a sport. The advertisement for this programme in the newspaper is an image of a man lying on the floor, thought to have been beaten up, a sort of blurry image. The picture is surrounded by a black background and comments from the Russian Embassy to the United Kingdom. This is all present in The Guardian Newspaper. This kind of advertisement is not one that we would be too interested in for our documentary as for us it does not really stand out.

The advertisement for Brain Games in the Guardian is similar to the type of advertisement we want to do. There is a face present in the advert and what they have done with the face is made two different angles of the face and made it into one face. Similar to what we intend to do with our poster having each person for a different part of the face

Poster shoot

We have just taken pictures of 3 people in our Focus group; Sarah, Elena & Aidan. For this we used our college photography room in Tenison Road building. Our main target was to get a photo quite close up on their face that will be able to work with our selfie idea for our poster. Our next objective will be to get the remaining 5 people in to take photos of them. These are the photos that we think will work best with the editing of our poster.

Elena

Sarah

Aidan

We will use Adobe Photoshop, which is a programme for editing photos, so that we can make the poster look similar to the one Seven Days have done for their programme.
