I plan on presenting my Remix project of the Argumentative Research paper through a PowerPoint or google slides. My research paper utilizes the material present in a fictional series called “Blue Period” as a basis to tackle the idea of how social normalities have negatively influenced the development of modern-day adolescents. Since the existence of social norms is the main driving force of my argument, the presentation will most likely be split into two central topics: career path and education.
I hope that I’m able to properly convey the stress and hardship the growing youth are experiencing as they embark on their turbulent path to self-discovery. To do so, I plan on incorporating a vast array of images and text from the comic book series and potentially its Netflix adaptation. The series itself contains many powerful scenes, and potentially incorporating a reenactment of such scenes from the Netflix show may leave a stronger impression on the audience as they witness the scene unfold with movement and sound. My own vocal projection will be important as well. This can also be done through added animations using the tools in PowerPoint or google slides. Whether I end up prerecording the presentation or presenting live, I should make sure that I create a concise script that fits within the time limit while also speaking in a clear and engaging manner.
The multimedia piece will change the original argumentative research paper by hopefully presenting the themes in a more concise and engaging manner. The presentation will most likely exclude a good junk of the nitty-gritty details for a more digestible and potentially enjoyable experience. Although I did use images in the paper as well, it was more so a snip bit of what would be a more emotional scene. This project will allow me to add such context through means other than text. However, presenting something in an engaging manner, whether it be the format of my presentation or my own vocal projection, is still a challenge that I need to put more thought into.
