In today's class, we continued to work on our final narrative project as we have for the past few days. As the deadline slowly approaches (yet still too fast), Mr. Rivers is mixing in meetings with each individual student. These are mainly for a progress check, but make sure you ask him any questions you feel necessary, in case he is busy checking in on other students at another time. Before the deadline, students must have the following things completed: 1. Choose a slide on the final narrative Google Slides presentation. 2. Create, follow through with, and list your goals on your slide. 3. Add a title and Netflix description to your specific slide. These particular contents are mandatory to the success of our narrative. As for the individual goals, they will vary depending on which color path you chose for your narrative. In my case, I am writing 15 pages of screen play, and have set my goals in page intervals, since I don't need to film.
What this adventure of a project has taught me is that you don't need to work in a group to be successful. For the better part of this year, I have worked in groups on almost every project in class, but for this one, I chose the individuality route. It may not be AS fun as group work, but I feel I have a different sense of productivity when I work alone. I understand that I can't rely on someone else to do a certain part, but rather I must complete each part by myself. While it may seem like a negative experience, it absolutely is not. In the end, it comes down to a time management lesson. The goals pave that path for us, but it is our choice to follow it, and at any point in the project, I know I can refer to my peers or Mr. Rivers for assistance.
