Ways of doing documentary research: research into, for and through documentary
It is more valuable than ever to tell stories about research (including design research) in ways that connect with various different audiences, from the general public to funders and from publication venues to our peers. Documenting research is, thus, both an art and a science; there is plenty of scope for creativity, as well as quantified standards of good practice.
In this 1-day workshop, developed exclusively for PETRAS IoT researchers, we used an example-led approach to explore the breadth of approaches to research documentary-making by outlining some core principles of good research storytelling (story / narrative / audience) as well as practical considerations - from storyboarding and sound recording to using stock footage and choosing the right social media platform.
