Entry Five

One more primary research method

Another chosen primary research method is to use a focus group, to find out;

  • The perceptions of people after watching the film (Impact of film)
  • Whether they feel that Young Black men are portrayed positively or negatively and whether they feel it is accurate.

I am going to use a focus group consisting of four people, who have not yet watched Bullet Boy or Life and Lyrics. By doing this, I am able to have in-depth conversations about these films and therefore have a detailed analysis of these films from a number of perspectives as I will have a group of diversity.

Entry Four

One more secondary method

My other chosen secondary research method is an interview with the Kidulthood writer, Noel Clarke. I got this source from RWD magazine, which is an urban magazine for younger people. The interview talks about his intentions of the film and how he feels about people's reactions.
This was composed by a RWD interviewer and does not have a date or specific author name, however it is issue 52 of March 2006.
