Christmas Spokesperson, said: “If Manchester is the king of Christmas,
then our very own Christmas Markets are the jewel in our crown. I would
have the chalets up and open from September if we could. They give the
city centre a perfectly festive atmosphere with a traditional, festive
taste of Europe – and renowned as being the original, biggest and best.
The Documentary film makers handbook- By Genevieve Jolliffe and Andrew Zinnes:- First published in 2006.
"I think its wise to take a look at the history of documentary film. That way you've not trying to invest in something that's already been made" page 12
This means that you should be careful in what documentary you make and make sure you do deep research to make sure your not making something alike of what already has been made before.
This research was very useful because you do not want to be making the same documentary as someone else.
Plot/Outline
My documentary will be observational ( voice over) , the documentary will start of with some footage of the markets this is to let the audience get a feel and get their focus and then we will get some interviews with people who own a stall ask about the history of the markets and why they work there and they will be asked other questions and then we will ask some of the customers in the markets some questions to get their opinions and then we will get some nice footage of the markets and the lights.
How am i going to target my audience?
I am going to target my audience by making a question air and then analysing it then making stuff appeal the certain ages. But in my documentary I will have a have music in the background so this should appeal to people. I will get footage of some food and beers for the male audience and then some clothes and girlie stuff for the female audience.
Who is your target audience?
My target audience is people who want to go in to Manchester and want to see what the markets look like and what they offer and to see if Manchester is worth to go and see. So the ages of my audience will be 16- 40 years old of both genders. And also people who want to learn about what the markets do for Manchester and what it does for the economy.
How will mine be better than other documentaries
My documentary will be better than others because it would of had deep research behind it. interviews with people in Manchester. A good length so the audience doesn't lose focus and gets bored.Also their will be good shots of the markets and good Christmas music in it.
What will my audience learn?
the audience will learn abit about the history of the markets and abit about theworkers. also they will get a understanding of the customers view of the markets. also they will learn some facts about the markets.

Sarah Walters "says that last year, around seven million
visitors visited them and no doubt spent some money at them on
everything from hot drinks to high end jewellery".
This quote isn't that useful because its Sarah's opinion and its biased and its not specific. but it shows us the amount of people who go and see them and how popular they are and what they do for the economy. it was easy to understand an what Sarah Walters was saying how popular the markets are and what people like to go for.

city centre a perfectly festive atmosphere with a traditional, festive
taste of Europe – and renowned as being the original, biggest and best.
“It’s an honour to receive the hundreds of traders from the continent,
and of course from across the north west, many of whom for many years
have chosen to return to Manchester for their festive trading season.
“This year we are celebrating a remarkable 15 magical years of the
Christmas Markets, and to celebrate there will be a very special feature
this year that will make sure this year’s market will be more exciting
and memorable than ever – the limited edition, specially minted
Manchester Market Shillings!”
This is biased because the Christmas spokesperson works for the Manchester council so he is going to big up Manchester markets
A similar Documentary.

The way it pulls in the audience is that it uses good shots of the markets so the audience gets a good view of what they look like. there is a voice over telling us whats going on and keeps are focus. In the documentary there are interviews with people who work on the markets and they are asked about their opinions and there are interviews with customers and we get a view of their opinions on the markets.
Books.
their wasn't any books on about Christmas markets so I found a book on how to make a documentary to help me know the basics to make a documentary because i haven't made one before.

unit 3 finished with comments.
Types of research.
What research techniques are the best.
Qualitative- Opinions from other people
Quantitative- Facts and figures.
How are they different;- Qualitative and Quantitative or very different research methods. Here is a example why they are different.
So quantitative is all about figures and numbers and qualitative is more description or opinions.
Which is better?
Its very hard to say which one is better overall because it depends on what research you need to do. Many people who are snobby about research would say that quantitative research is more scientific and therefore much better. I can see why some people insist that quantitative research is better than qualitative research. One reason for this is that it is more scientific. A large amount of data is gathered and then analysed statistically. This allows for very little bias, and if 100 researchers ran the analysis on the data they would always end up with the same numbers at the end of it. The researcher also has more control over how the data is gathered and is more distant from the experiment. However, in qualitative, the researcher is often the person doing the interview or involved in some other way. This does not allow them the outside perspective gained from doing quantitative research. There is also more bias involved in qualitative research.
Primary;- research undertaken by you or your group.
Secondary;- research what has already been done for you.
Benefits of primary;-
The benefits of primary is that its first hand information and it can be very easy to gather information.Data interpretation is better. The collected data can be examined and interpreted by the marketers depending on their needs rather than relying on the interpretation made by collectors of secondary data. Collector of primary data is the owner of that information and he need not share it with other companies and competitors.
Production research-
Production research - the collection and analysis of information for the content and production of a media product.
Equipment-
Because I am making a documentary I need equipment so I need to do some research on what equipment is good for what job. The research methods I will be doing will be Qualitative and Quantitative these two research methods are good because Qualitative is feedback from other people so this is use full if your getting feedback from people who have used the equipment to say its good or bad. Quantitative is also a good research method for equipment because it will shows facts and figures and how many people have used what equipment and how much it will cost. So i will be using both research methods.
Content-
Content is very important in making a documentary because you need to do the right research for the right people to be in your documentary so the right research method is very important. Qualitative is properly the best research method because its first hand and you can ask for peoples opinions and you can ask your own questions.
Audience.
I am doing a documentary and i am doing research on audience the best research method would be is Quantitative ( quantitative is all about facts and figures) because if your making a documentary and its the same genre of another documentary what has been made and you check the stats and figures of that documentary and then you know you will get a high audience rating or not. plus it can show when is a good time for making a documentary.
Market research
Market research is very important because you need to collect information and see if their is a market for your product your trying to do. if you want to find out your audience you will have to do primary research such as doing questionnaires or doing interviews and focus groups to find out what the public's opinions. another good way to gain good information of the public is to do a online survey. The best way to promote your product is to do advertising such as boards, TV adverts, advertising in news papers or magazines. You can also do secondary research so you can see the facts and figures to seee what the audience likes so you can see what products do well and what time of year they do well or bad.
What is research data?
"Research data, unlike other types of information, is collected, observed, or created, for purposes of analysis to produce original research results."
"Research data is defined as recorded factual material commonly retained by and accepted in the scientific community as necessary to validate research findings; although the majority of such data is created in digital format, all research data is included irrespective of the format in which it is created."
