Biggest obstacle for final project
The biggest obstable I see myself having with the final project is that I decided on using a pictorial essay as my medium to present my argument. I forsee that I may run into some issue's as I form the pictorial essay because I may find that it is not be the best way to present my arguement. I guess my biggest concern for the assignment is just maybe a little more clarification on what makes a good pictorial essay or some main points to follow as guidelines, just so I can make sure that I can present my arguement using this medium or if another would be a better choice.

Lindsey: You can certainly formulate a good argument through visuals alone - but it isn't easy to do. You can incorporate words to help your point along (narration, dialogue, interview excerpts, textual captions). If you're worried about the viability of your medium, you are welcome to change your mind - but do it soon.
ReplyDeleteFor examples, you might search "pictorial essay" or "identity" on YouTube or Google video. Lots of good ones.
If you're worried about making yout argument clear, you can provide a companion piece of writing that helps explain the presentation of your ideas and your main point.
