Screen Writing
Why do we research?To gather information that
• influences our creative ideas• Identifies our audience• Affects our planning
• Affects our production

In screen writing
A good script is built on great research
Like every other part of film & TV screen writing involves research.
Lots & lots of research….

Information that doesn’t already exist somewhere else
ie/ we find it out ourselves

• Abundance of data available on the internet

What are the weaknesses of secondary research?
• May not answer your specific questions• Can be time consuming finding information• Verifying someone elses research is
difficult (less reliable)

Quantitative versus Qualitative questioning
There are 2 types of ‘data’ (ie. Information) we can get back from our research:
• Quantitative
• Qualitative
![Page 23: Research primary secondary quant qual](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033101/587ddff71a28abaf6b8b52c1/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
Qualitative data
Eg. If we asked the question What did you like or dislike about the film ‘Chappie’?
I liked how the film made me question what the human soul is and how it asked a lot of important questions about religion and rebirth. The effects were good, but the story and subtext were better.
Qualitative data gives us an in depth opinion back.
![Page 24: Research primary secondary quant qual](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033101/587ddff71a28abaf6b8b52c1/html5/thumbnails/24.jpg)
Quantitative data
Quantitative data gives us a measure of what people think, in a statistical or numerical way.
Eg. If we asked the question
Did you like the film ‘Chappie’? YES or NO (circle your answer)
YES NO
![Page 25: Research primary secondary quant qual](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033101/587ddff71a28abaf6b8b52c1/html5/thumbnails/25.jpg)
Quantitative versus Qualitative questioning
Which gives us a more useful answer for deep analysis of peoples reactions to our subject?
![Page 26: Research primary secondary quant qual](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033101/587ddff71a28abaf6b8b52c1/html5/thumbnails/26.jpg)
Quantitative versus Qualitative questioning
Which is easier to present in a graphical, simple way?
![Page 27: Research primary secondary quant qual](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033101/587ddff71a28abaf6b8b52c1/html5/thumbnails/27.jpg)
Quantitative data
Gives us simple answers (and a simplified version of what people think) meaning it is easy to put into graphs and charts
It shows us what people think about a subject but doesn’t allow us to understand why they think that.
![Page 28: Research primary secondary quant qual](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033101/587ddff71a28abaf6b8b52c1/html5/thumbnails/28.jpg)
Quantitative dataGives us in depth answers which allow us to understand our audiences reactions, but it is hard to put these complex results into graphs and charts
It shows us what people think about a subject but doesn’t allow us to understand why they think that.
![Page 29: Research primary secondary quant qual](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033101/587ddff71a28abaf6b8b52c1/html5/thumbnails/29.jpg)
Making a good survey
1. Understand who your audience are.
What do we need to know about our audience?• Age• Gender• Occupation • Location
What type of question would be best to get this data? Quantitative or qualitative?
![Page 30: Research primary secondary quant qual](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033101/587ddff71a28abaf6b8b52c1/html5/thumbnails/30.jpg)
For exampleNAME _________________AGE 16 – 18
19 – 25 25 – 30 30 – 50 50 – 6565+
GENDER MALE FEMALEPREFER NOT TO SAY
OCCUPATION ________________
![Page 31: Research primary secondary quant qual](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033101/587ddff71a28abaf6b8b52c1/html5/thumbnails/31.jpg)
Making a good survey
2. Understand what questions you need answering
Eg. If you wanted to know if people would go to see your film based on its idea alone, what could you ask?
![Page 32: Research primary secondary quant qual](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033101/587ddff71a28abaf6b8b52c1/html5/thumbnails/32.jpg)
Making a good survey
3. Get a large enough sample of participants to make it useful.
If you ask 20 people, and 19 of them are teenagers your data will obviously state that teenagers are your main market, when in fact this is probably not true.
Ask a range of different people, of different ages, genders and occupations to get a varied, reliable sample.
![Page 33: Research primary secondary quant qual](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033101/587ddff71a28abaf6b8b52c1/html5/thumbnails/33.jpg)
Task 1
Working in pairs, come up with a list of ten questions you could ask to find out useful information about peoples reactions to your screenplay idea.
![Page 34: Research primary secondary quant qual](https://reader030.vdocument.in/reader030/viewer/2022033101/587ddff71a28abaf6b8b52c1/html5/thumbnails/34.jpg)
Task 2
Using the link on moodle create a survey-monkey survey which seeks to answer those questions.
Send the survey out via social media, email and any other means to a large, varied sample.
