Before carrying out any research into soap operas I created a mind map of everything I know so far about soap operas, the characters in soaps, storylines, scheduled times that soaps are on television, channels that soaps are shown on and general knowledge about each soap.
This enabled me to gain a brief idea of the general conventions of soaps and the ideas I would follow when creating my own - characters, storylines, locations, setting etc.
I was able to see certain aspects of existing soaps which would set me up when it came to researching and planning for my own.
