Introduction: outline what my essay is on, introduce James Cameron and the film Titanic, discuss some of the findings online, what other people think, what you're going to look at to come to your decision of whether it is or not accurate.
Paragraph 1: small things that are wrong with the film, get them over and done with, affect the accuracy of the film? maybe slightly
Paragraph 2: focus on the fictional characters/love story - added to entice audiences, does that mean we can be more accurate with the sinking as we have something interesting to watch or does it simply lead to inaccuracies as Cameron gets too carried away with the Hollywood side of things?
Paragraph 3: reference to specific scenes which are supposedly accurate, back up with facts and figures
Paragraph 4: talk about the accuracy of the ship itself, tie in how Cameron has a passion for the Titanic and spent many years researching it
Conclusion: conclude whether the small inaccuracies are important, the ship is accurate are the characters? does Hollywood twist the story too much? can we trust what we see on the screen? does Cameron present it accurately?
By sticking to this rough draft I should be able to cover all the factors I want to in this essay in a organised, structured fashion and know what I need to write about in each section. I can organise my research so I can easily access it for each paragraph that I need it for.
