PRODUCTION LOG - Planning the research into a director post

My chosen director is Neill Blomkamp as he started off shooting and directing short films and has since progressed into the feature film industry. One of Neill's most recent and most famous works is the film Elysium starring Matt Damon. It is a sci-fi thriller film that has received many good reviews recently. 
 
I started off by Google searching Neill's name to see what results would come up and to see what he looked like because I thought that would be an important thing to know, especially if I'm going to research him.
I then watched his most famous short film "Alive in Joburg" which is a short film that was picked up by world famous director Peter Jackson and then turned into the box office hit District 9. It is important to watch his work because it gives me an idea as to how he directs his films.
