Documentary Blog # 3

My group has decided to focus our documentary on Monogamy. We are going to explore whether it is possible for two people to be together forever, not just physically, but also emotionally. We are going to interview several couples and get their perspectives on this question. We are going to find 3 different couples, meaning that not every couple will be a male and a female. Before we start we are going to have to do some research on the statistics of divorces, or the science on what leads people to get divorces.

It was very fitting that this weeks reading was on research. The subject of research has come up with EVERY speaker we have had and everyone has stressed the importance of it. Without research, you do not have a documentary that serves it full purpose. Our speaker today, Melody Gilbert, mentioned that research is not always necessary. Sometimes, you are able to learn about your subject by just talking to them. It was interesting to hear his perspective because it has been stressed by so many people already.

Before we begin our filming and interviews, we will make sure that we have done a good amount of research!
