Class Blog: 4-23-18

Today is Monday the 23rd, and it is a day 2. Mr rivers started off the day with steps on how to share your writerduet script with him. You press File→ Export→ PDF. Then you go to google docs and click: New→ New Upload, and from there you can share a link with Mr.Rivers. If you haven't done it already, it won't count as a late if you turn it in today.
The big part of today is talking about the Final Narrative project that we are doing next. On classroom, there are several past narratives that last years students have done. Since we are doing this project later in the year, we know more. Mr.Rivers opened up a doc called Film Narrative: Sample Info. Here we can see what the students planed, What they wanted to do. We saw their intentions throughout the project. They had to think like professionals and what they would do.  
On Classroom, there are several choices of narratives, You in your groups would all meet and come up with which narrative to read. As of my group, we chose TheLastShow. We all split up the roles into different people, and we acted out our parts. As you are going through, pick out what you would do and what you would change for the betterment of the narrative. With that information, you can get a better idea of what your narrative would turn out to be. Finally, As a class at the end of the period, we watched one of the videos of the narrative projects. As the bell rang, he remembered everyone that on Wednesday, to all meet in the computer lab,  I guess for the start of our own narratives.

How does this compare with the outside world, Well it's simple- Movies. All movies must start out with an idea. With that idea, they can come up with a plan. A script would be made up just like the ones we created in class. With the different characters, and the parentheticals, and the camera cuts. All we learned about how to write a script is practice with that would be done with the outside world.
