We just received some feed back from Professor Baines today in response to our proposal video. She seemed to enjoy our decision to make a video instead of writing out our proposal. I think it was also a great way for us to get used to the types of media and technology we will be using through out the project. In editing the video, we approached it as a sort of trailer for our project, just as any feature film has a trailer. And I think overall we presented the base of our project and where we want to take it well.
Professor Baines did have some constructive criticisms with regards to the enormity of our initial ideas for how we would carry out the project. I will admit that we do seem to have a pretty ambitious structure in mind, tying in many different media components. It will be a good idea for us to re-group following our interview tomorrow, as we will likely get a better sense of the direction we want to take the central question of our project after talking to Jedediah himself.
On that note, Professor Baines also suggests that we focus in on one specific question that will tie all of our pillars together. Right now, although we are all researching media, we are all sort of doing our own thing and then coming back to touch base with each other. We need to really get to the core of our arguments and agree on a central focus we want to each address with the different types of media.
Overall though Professor Baines was very excited for us to work on this project together. She has lots of faith in our ability to get our enormous project done if we choose to continue on with every aspect we outlined in our video. Thanks for the support Professor Baines!
