• We will be looking into how body weight affects young people, therefore their are image of males and females that we will be asking about this question to be able to see their response.
• Their will be a mixture of individuals asked within our documentary this ranging from a wide range of our year groups in school, this being from Year 7 to the 16+ department. 

The final image within our storyboard is shown below: 

We as a group will also be focusing on the following: 

• We will look into how celebrities influence young people
• As a group we will ask many individuals this question, this being once again to the young individuals, we will insure that their is both male and female individuals included.

LO2: Recce photos of your chosen locations

Locations

Sidney stringer school is where we will be gaining most of our research from, we will be asking many young individuals in our school for their views.Sidney Stringer Academy, One of the areas we decided to record in was in School, this being that many individuals in school are what we are looking for, this in terms of age. We are looking for young individuals therefore a school will be a great way to get a mixture of different individuals within our production for media.

We as a group will also be going round in the different departments within the school to gain expert opinions. This being for example from the image above the sport facilities so that we are able to talk to the teachers who teach sport and see their views on body image. Furthermore we will go to areas such as the Humanities so that we are able to speak to a sociology and psychology teachers to see the impacts of body image mentally. And finally the nurses within the school to see their views on anorexia and bulimia.
