Primary & Secondary Research (Chanel Akinwande)

Primary research is collected for a particular purpose and is new information. This is conducted using some means of questioning usually via a survey or intervews, or then information can be gathered through observation.  As a group we spent time planning and gathering primary research; we produced interviews, questionnaire and documentary analysis.
Secondary research gathers information which has already been collected. our project aalso consists of secondary research ; rules of thirds, documentary modes, theorists etc
We believe it is important that our doucmentary consists of both research types as we dont want to our doumentary to be based on only our knowledge and opinion but on facts figures and case studies aswell.
