Week 10 Tutorial Reflection

During my week ten tutorial, my group continued to work on Project Brief 4. We began creating posts on our blog relating to our chosen areas from last week. We used this time as a meeting to discuss how each of our areas can interact with the others. For example, while she was finding example of conflict represented using audio, Cheyenne found a news radio broadcast concerning the bombing of Pearl Harbor which linked to my current research topic of comics and pamphlets being used to add fuel to the fire of patriotism after the attack.

To showcase the advantages and disadvantages of each type of medium, I have written scripts for a short audio, comic and video presentation for our blog. The dialogue of each medium’s story is exactly the same but I will present them in the following order; audio, comic, video, to allow for the audience’s perception of the conversation to drastically change as they consume each of the pieces. I will use the audio scene to establish some expectations only to have those be altered in the final video form to show how people lend their own images to a solely audio experience that differs from every other individual’s perception of the event. This will allow us to explore the advantages and disadvantages of various mediums throughout our project and to show how each medium was used to its full capacity during times of conflict.
