Sorry that it’s been a while. I was afraid that I’d forget to post every week, and forget I did. But I’m here now so let’s see what I have to say.

The group assignment was something I was simultaneously looking forward to and dreading. They can be a great way to engage me in a course’s content and hear another’s perspective, and the thought of making films was really exciting. But group projects can be stressful and difficult to manage at the worst of times, communication problems are possible, work division can be cumbersome, and also… making films… in Covid times… how?!

As of writing, I feel a little more comfortable in this task. Our group has put together collective visions for both films, one a recreation of dream using Lewis Carroll’s ‘Jabberwocky’ as a textual basis, the other a visual essay on gargoyles and potentially the legend of La Gargouille. I will talk more of these on my next post. But I’ve got to say that I’m looking forward to putting these together.
