"Single Mothers going or been through hell but having the courage to look after their family and making something of themselves despite being alone."


Finding ways to get a story

Vox pop
Internet Research
Question and answers
Asking people we know
Simply roaming the streets looking and speaking to any woman walking alone.


Me and the rest of the Group intended on doing a vox pop but things did not work out so we decided to  do the others instead:

Internet research

We looked on the internet at support groups for single mother- We came to a brick wall but continued our search going a little further by looking for support groups for mothers in general rather than just single mothers

Questions and answers 

  I went around the studio campus and the university campus asking various people of all ages and gender what they look for in a documentary?  for our particular topic whats more effective?  and would wan to hear the child's point of view as well as the mothers of just the mothers alone.

Asking people we know 

I went around asking all the mothers i knew and asked about their story this led me to walking around on the street asking all mothers i had seen on their own.
