Drama Research Report
Drama Research Report
Order Description
A 2,000 word report in which you provide a complete analysis of a contemporary TV drama that we have discussed or referred to during tutorials. Your analysis should
include a one page outline of the series/program that explains genre, narrative context, characters and basic plot - and how it relates to other series within the same
genre. Do not describe the storyline, but analyse how the series relates to other series of the same period. Most importantly, your analysis should refer to ALL the
key production and creative entities, and their antecedents. You should identify the commissioning entity, the actual production company, its key principles and their
background, and then the key creatives (Writers/Producer/Director/DP/Composer etc.) their credits and in particular the professional relationships between them. The
aim of the assessment is for you to demonstrate that you can research and comprehend the professional and industrial landscape in which contemporary TV drama is
created, and the relationships that exist between the co-creators.
