Group Critics

Week 3:

Our Media Studies class held group critics today.

I spoke with the following classmates: Clara, Angela, Brooke, and Prodigy.

(I am in the middle !)

We each shared our progress on our blog, and the concepts for our film opening and genre.

Once each person had finished speaking, the group provided feedback and critiques. We suggested that Prodigy's film should be categorized as action and recommended that Angela’s character “Cecilia” should incorporate the Cecilia flower in her mise-en-scene. We also suggested changes to some of the more extremes stories, such as Clara's post-apocalyptic film opening, where Earth no longer has the sun. We recommended that Clara provide an explanation for the concept's physics to make it more plausible.

Collaborative feedback like this can be extremely beneficial in the creative process. Each member can improve their concepts.
