The nature and purposes of Research

Primary Research

Primary research is research you gather yourself, for example surveys, questionnaires etc. 
For our 3MW we did research through a survey and as the documentary was about me, we had my experiences as primary research.

Secondary Research

Secondary research is research you find on the internet or through books and news. 
We used the internet for our 3MW project to find out the history and current state of Hip-Hop

Secondary Research is a little more helpful as it’s on a wider scale and can’t really be tricked or lies. 

Quantative Research/Qualitative Research

Quantative research is figures, box office etc. where numbers are involved, For example, 99,000 out of 100,000 people said they hated my music. Qualitative research are physical comments. So responses, feedback etc.

Preparing Material For Editing


Preparing Materials For Editing Guide




Log in when your Mac has started up with your account details before continuing on this list

Step 1:
Insert the SD/MicroSD card you used to take footage/audio (you should have two, the process is the same with both audio and footage SD cards, just different folder names when organising) 
Image result for sd card
Step 2: Copy the contents by highlighting all footage/audio and pressing the CMD key and C at the same time and then clicking the copy (number) items (or by right-clicking and clicking copy if you've set up secondary mouse-click)
Copying means that if you make a mistake with the footage during this process then you can go back to the SD Card and re-copy it (Say if you copy a link or text mid-way through this process). Cutting will copy and delete the footage so that's a risky move and moving it means it'll be a nightmare if you place it in the wrong folder ;(
(The process shown above is the RIGHT CLICK METHOD)
Step 3: Enter the MacHD icon on the desktop screen. This is where everything on the system is stored.
Step 4: Enter the movies tab of MacHD and create a folder using your name or team name. This is where your editing should be placed to keep in organised place.
Step 5: Open the folder you created and create 4 new folders, with these names respectively 
We make these folders to keep all our editing material organised, so we know where to find each of our material. So you assume to have audio in your audio folder rather than thrown in a folder with your footage.
Step 6: Open the folder you're pasting your materials into (so if you're copying footage, paste it in the footage folder, if audio paste in sound folder etc.) and you've set up your materials for editing!

(BONUS STEPS:)

When finished with the SD Card, make sure you Right-Click it and click "Eject (Name of SD Card) so that the SD Card doesn't become corrupt meaning it's unstable and may not read files properly.
