  1. Martin,

    This is good, I like the fact that you are demonstrating your plan before making the documentary and this structure will work well.

    HOWEVER, you must always remember that your blog is eventually going to be read by somebody who has never met you and has no idea what your plans were.

    Therefore, ALWAYS include a final paragraph OR bullet point list in which you say WHAT you have learned from doing a piece of research OR planning such as this and HOW it is going to help you to make your final production piece. You should do this in a different colour, possibly red, to make it obvious for the reader
