Dissertation Rethink

*UPDATE* Okay best to ignore this post as I've just discovered that you can't change the dissertation topic after submitting the proposal. I'll just have to come up with a compromise with my current topic, maybe change the title a bit so it's more open. I think what might be a better thing to do is submit a plan for your Dissertation with the proposal for other years as I didn't know mine was going to work until I actually planned it. 

After working on my dissertation for a while now, I have decided to have a major rethink about my topic. I do not have a strong argument, plan and weakened enthusiasm because of it. I have done a lot of research and restarting will set me back, but I believe it is for the best. I am currently redoing my proposal and sending it to my supervisor to get the go ahead for my new topic and start fresh ASAP. 

My new topic is similar to my report I did for Professional Studies last year (which is a worry of mine). However, I feel like I could have gone more in depth, so Dissertation would be perfect to further explore the themes I covered in my report. However, I will not focus on cinematographers like last year. I will include all job roles in the industry as well as plot and storyline. I will look at feminism but in a controversial way; has it all gone too far? For example, the new Ghostbusters and the new Doctor Who have cast women instead of men to fit in with the new feminist society. But shouldn't we have original female heroes like Wonder Woman? My working title is quite broad and including the word "emancipation" so it could cover race, censorship, etc.

I can also include various theories too to make it degree level standard, such as chaos theory, equality vs. equity, etc. I feel like this new topic has a lot more material to include to a higher standard and is something relevant to today's society. My previous topic, according to my research here, is becoming less relevant and stale, so I think dropping it now rather than later would be for the best.
