There's an example at the Candace web site researching the usefulness of a chocolate teapot. Scroll down. It is also on YouTube here.
Unlike the competition entries I'm glad to say, there's no swearing. All three competition entries used the f* word, as if it were normal conversation. I can only forgive it because the students were not native English speakers, and must have been listening to too much post-nine o'clock television. But I do wish someone would point out how offensive it is.
I've a colleague who is researching pre-teenage boys and is thinking of getting them to video themselves. I bet that will go down well because they'll enjoy playing with the toys.
But I don't think it'll work for my research because
- some people don't like being recorded
- public servants are shy or scared of evidence that could be against them
- consultants would want anonymity too
- PV doesn't seem useful to my research
