The research that was created in my AS year was mainly using Google to find out what type of people watch certain movie genres, for example action films usually have a larger male audience compared to the female audience, I had to research what type of person would come to see this film, what age what they do on a regular basis, to find out if my genre was most appropriately suited for my preferred audience.
However I feel my skills in research have developed in ways that I can research upon relevant topics linking to theories and finding examples of such theories within music video's. What I have gained in research skills is that it is much more complicated and indepth than just promoting a music video and putting it up on Youtube, there are great care and time taken upon the image of the artist, and what is on the screen on the music video, and most importantly how they will make money, they need to find an angle which will attract a large amount of fan base which will allow them to sell merchandise and want them to come purchase tickets for concerts. For example the weirdness of Lady Gaga, has encourages many fans to go view this madness of a character on stage to feel the energy.
My research skills I feel have greatly improved and will steadily improve as I progress through my A2 course.
