Field Report 3 Submit before 8 March Peer reviews before 15 March

Supervisory Group meeting (1-7 March): Prior to the field report, arrange a meeting with the other student members of your “soup group” to share experiences, get feedback, and brainstorm responses to the field reports.

Preliminary analysis / conclusions: Provide an initial analysis of your main findings (2000 words)

Revisit the questions asked in Field Report 2 and consider whether your answers are still the same as they were three weeks ago. Reflect on these questions:

• What patterns do you now see in the phenomena you have been exploring?
• What issues, people, and places do you want to elaborate with your remaining time?
• What new areas have emerged which you still want to investigate before you leave the field?
• Based on the data you’ve recorded,
  • Does this material provide sufficient coverage of your key questions/concepts?
  • Does it begin to tell a story? If so, what story? What additional materials do you need to elaborate this story?
  • Do you have everything you need to structure your footage into a linear film or other output with a beginning, middle, and end?

Logging Data: Send an update of your continued efforts to create a media loglist and field journal TOC/Index. This should give a nearly complete overview of your entire collection of research materials. Calculate how many hours of rushes you have.

Multimodal Materials: First impressions in audiovisual examples

• Submit 10-12 still images that provide a survey of key element (i.e., a photo-survey) or narrative structure to your project (i.e., a photo-essay).
• Submit 2 video sequences (2-4 minutes each) that illustrate at least 3 different moments that could play a significant/structural role in your coming project.
• Submit 1-2 sound sequences (2-4 minutes each) that provides significant knowledge about your project.
