Week 2

Solidifying the Topic

After further brain-storming into areas of interest in set building and my first 1-2-1 tutorial, I have chosen a substantial topic. Sustainable stop-motion set structures — oomph so many Ss.

Discussion with my tutor has highlighted that my research question is still somewhat broad and that I need to define 'sustainable'. Also, bullet point what other aspects am I looking at when evaluating existing sets. What would the set designer take into consideration? How does budget, ease of use, durability etc. inform their decisions.

Next, I need to think about my practical investigation and the actual outcome. I am building a set, the theoretical research will support that, yet I need to clarify how I will test the success of this product.
