the idea of relaying my thesis statement in the form of a video sounds pretty interesting. Like the students before me have stated, I’m part excited and part scared because I don’t really know all the details on how to make such a video. In addition, I think finding the right poem to work with will probably make it harder because it sets back the whole project. Im done to three poems, one about love, one about mystery and the last about happiness. I know that it would make a lot of sense to use the happiness poem, being that the class is about happiness and all, but I’m leaning more towards the love poem. It just has something in it that for some reason, everyone can attribute a part of their life with it. It holds the readers interest and it’s pretty easy to analyze haha, but mainly it’s the interest that got me going.
All in all, I don’t remember the last time I was this psyched to do an essay. It’s kinda fun to think about. I guess we’ll see at the end of the semester who’s really got the best video and paper. Good luck guys, and if possible just drop a comment on what you’d pick: love, mystery, or happiness?
Never done this before but seems interesting
Don’t you worry man, I’m sure tomorrow’s class will give you many bright ideas on how to create the video. He gives great outlines and different options as well.
In my opinion, when it comes to poetry and expressionism, it is not a competition. As long as genuine effort is made, all videos and essays will be phenomenal.
