LO3: Be able to reaserch and plan content for a news article

Idea 1: Street Art
I will write an artical which is about the different types of street art in Sheffield, and will discuss wether street art has a negative or positive effect on Sheffield's community. The article will focus especially on three main street artists work, and will explain how the street art reflects certain lifestyles within Sheffield. This article will use primary sources, which will included interveiws with the public and how they feel about certain street art in Sheffield, and will also include interveiws with actual street artists, the reason they like to be street artists, and how they think it is effecting the community. This will also included secondary research, looking into how street art effects other cities on articles online, and comparing the way street effects those cities

Idea 2: The Light Cinema on The Moor
I will write an artical which is about the opening of the new cinema on the moor named "The Light" and will discuss how people have reviewed it, and what impact it will have on the community at the Moor. The artical will also discuss how The Light will compete with other cinemas Sheffield. This will include primary research with individuals who live in Sheffield, and have visited The Light Cinema, and secondary research which will be an article which was written previously about The Light cinema being built and the effects it is likely to have on public.

Idea 3: Delirium
I will write an artical about a band which is local to Sheffield named "Delirium" and will write about their inspirations, their aspirations and how Sheffield effects their music. The article will also have a particular focus, on what its like starting a band in Sheffield, and the type of life style and dedication needed to be in a band. This will included primary research, which will be an interview with the band.

The article I am going to write is going to be about the opening of The Light Cineam which is opening on the Moor Sheffield. The reason I decided to write this article is because I believe the article will be able to target people who live in Sheffield more successfully, since it will be in the public interest since most residents of Sheffield are likely to have noticed the cinema being built lately, and many of the people will have visited the cinema during it's opening. The article will also target a wide age range of people, since cinemas in general are visited and used by an incredibly mass audience.

My article will include:
-details and descriptions of the excitement which was happening previous to the cinema's opening to provide background for the article
-descriptions of what occured during the cinema's opening day
-reviews of the cinema and what makes it stand apart from other cinemas in Sheffield
-possilbe predictions of how the cinema will effect the community especially at the moor
-will question how the cinema will compete with other cinemas in Sheffield

Evaluation of Research techniques:


In order to find out how The Light Cinema will compete with other cinemas in Sheffield, I will need to write a questionnaire for Keith Pullinger, the man who is in charge and decided to open The Light Cinema in Sheffield, therefore I have written a questionnaire for him (below) and I have sent an email requesting that he could fill it in for me. The reason I would like to interview Keith Pullinger is because he would be considered to be a primary definer by readers, since he is in charge of the light cinema, meaning that readers would be more likely to find my article trustworthy.

Evidence of contacting Keith Pullinger:
Unfortunately Keith Pullinger never replied to my email, therefore I wasn't able to interview him nor was my questionnair filled out by him. However I could still gain research from secondary definers, and find out their opinions on The Light Cinema. Therefore I designed a survey which was similair to the previous survey, which had questions more suitable for members of the public, and handed them out around the Moor (the location in which The Light Cinema opened) and managed to gather some primary research:






Secondary research:
Due to the fact that I couldn't get any primary research from Keith Pullinger, I will have to find out the information through secondary research, which will mean I will have to search online for articles about The Light Cinema in Sheffield and hope to obtain quotes from Keith Pullinger, and more detail on The Light Cinemas intentions for the community in Sheffield.
