I have noticed that I am following the exact trajectory which I set out in week 1 (Trajectory of Learning)
With all this new knowledge and new terms, I expected to be feeling in over my head. A lot of the terms and readings seemed to have contradicted what I thought I knew about story and its power. This comes from a cinema standpoint. This is not to say that I disagree with any of it, it is just things that I had not thought of. This was a similar trend with the readings, in which I noted that:
“It is interesting to hear this perspective from a media theorist, of the media landscape which is presently evolving. Whereas my knowledge and thought capacity only looks off into the past, or into the future. It’s easy to see what has happened and make sense of it, and in a similar way it’s easy to speculate on the future of it all, but the present is impossibly hard to unravel for me.”
