I chose a weak concept in the first place as I chose to only compare 2 drinks. I then chose to taste these myself. This meant my research was limited and I struggled with other parts of the project. On the other hand, by doing my project independently of others, I did not have to arrange availability with others and could do the project in my own home.
My performance was a little bit lack lustre as I had some problems doing it in my own kitchen which isn’t designed for film production. I think my actual performance in the video was good as I overcame my shyness and apprehension.
The problems I had were minor and easily fixed with some technical adjustments such as letting more natural light into my kitchen and fixing the microphone on my camera.
If I was to repeat this project, I would include 4 different brands so that it was more of a taste test, and I would test the drinks on a group of people rather than just testing it myself. This would improve the quality of my research and would give more data to prove my hypothesis that Irn Bru has the best test of any other soft drink.
The things I enjoyed most about the project was being able to pick out my own topic and my own location. I also enjoyed having a reason to drink more of my favourite soft drinks. The thing I hated the most about the project was the issues I had with some of my equipment.
I confirm that the attached assessment is all my own work and does not include any work completed by anyone other than myself and sources have been appropriately referenced.
