This Is Where I’m At

To find out what I’ve written so far, see this post about what I got. Today, we had our work-in-progress presentations with guest panelists, Smiljana Glisovic and Dylan Murphy to give us feedback. While they thought my concept was good, the one specific feedback I got, and which they both shared, is how can I […]

Note To Self

It’s Week 9 and oddly enough, we get a reading that would have been a little bit more useful to have a couple of weeks ago. But I suppose things happen for a reason. To start off this new week, we read a section of Notes to Screenwriters by Vicki Peterson and Barbara Nicolosi (2015, […]

Rough Presentations

We had to give a rough presentation of our fourth project brief in terms of discussing what our topics our essays will be based on and any relevant findings. The topic for our group is Institution, in particular, Disney. […]

Copy And Paste

For this week’s lectorial, we had a guest speaker talk to us about copyright. This was quite fitting as we are currently working on our fourth project brief where we are allowed to use copyrighted material for educational purposes. However, it would have also been nice to have a received a lecture on this prior […]
