reminder of critiquing process

  • affirmation—strengths
  • artist poses questions to viewers, focusing on specific areas in which you desire suggestions
  • viewers ask questions
  • viewers share opinions/suggestions (“I have an opinion about X, do you want to hear it?)
  • justify ideas by pointing to examples/actual elements within the video being reviewed… how do visuals, audio, editing contribute to enhancing communication and generating viewer interest

THE BIG SHOW part 2! all class screening of final versions of this I believe (project 4)

THANK YOU for being an exceptional class!

homework:

  • Journal 1: How have you addressed the  3 criteria for a “this i believe” statement with your piece?
  • Journal 2: Describe your piece in terms of the aspects detailed in Lunsford’s “Everything is an Argument:”
    • purposes, occasions, kinds, and audiences
  • Journal 3: students who showed their work today should post a “presentation and distribution” entry (see video production template) on their blog journals. Note: these will not be due until midnight Friday (5/7). This is the last part of Module 3.
  • Journal 4: end reflection:: what have you learned from this class? what concepts, connections, and ideas have you learned that you might be able to utilize outside of this class or transfer to other areas of your life in the future? (these might be as small as specific technical skills and as huge as lifelong abstract concepts).
