Today was the group’s second meeting, and as I was unable to attend the first, today was the day that we made a lot of executive decisions regarding PB4. We have come to a decision about how we will generally structure our two essays and what we will primarily focus on.
- Main Topic: children’s narrative and the texts that they take the form of
- Will not split topic: both Text and Narrative will be discussed in both essays
- 30% crossover will be the definitions of Text and Narrative
- “Finding Nemo” or “Shrek” can be used as an example of linear structure
- Main topics for audio essay: Narrative, Text, Narrative Structure, Textual Analysis
- Texts: novels, films, TV series, online publications, comic books (comic book adaptations)
- Visual Essay: primarily focus on film due to the flexibility of having visual components
