Awkward Family Pictures

This picture is centered around being a family portrait. There is a mother, father and son; however, the mother and son are relaxed for the picture but the husband is dressed in a speedo flexing for the camera while kneeing, kinda in a showing off position. The first thing that draws my attention is the fact that the father is wearing a speedo and he is flexing while his wife in regular blue jeans and a laid back button down red shirt. This picture is about a long story of how the father likes to show off his body and do stuff in public for others while the mother and son are more conservative. Since i am more of a conservative person this made me see that the guy loves being the center of attention and dress to receive more attention.

Movie Narrative Intro and Conclusion

Writing my narrative introductory paragraph was single handedly one of the hardest paragraphs for me to write. I though about starting with a quote or maybe a little story of me as a young boy watching my favorite movies, but none of them seem the best way for me to start my essay. So as we were taught i wrote my first shitty introduction and kept on going with my paper. After we did our peer review I went back and rewrote my introductory paragraph. Now i knew what i wanted to put in the introduction and what stuff to take out. My introduction now starts with a strong statement about how movies affect us. By starting with a strong and capturing statement i hope the readers would get hooked to the essay and want to keep on reading. My conclusion was written three times. I couldn't get it to be how i wanted it until the three revision. In the conclusion i don't answer the statement but i summarize the statement i made in the introduction about movies. Its almost like i proof that the statement about movie is true. I do believe my conclusion answers the "So What" question that the book arises.

Digital Movie Narrative

The peer editing was extremely useful since i wasn't in class on Monday. I was able to get another person response to my paper instead of the same person over and over. The one thing i might change about my paper is that in stead of focusing on multiple movies i might focus on just one movie and go more in depth on it. By going into a movie i would be able to get more details and examples that relate to me. Also i am going to change how each show created a new view toward the world. And how this new perspective prepared me to the world.

Movie Narrative Peer Editing workshop

The peer editing workshop today help me understand what direction i want to go with my essay. Before i had a little idea of what i wanted to do but didn't know how to express it. I understand that the only way for me to keep on going is by understanding what i want this paper to say. I started thinking and concluded that during each of my eras something important rose and became a part of my life. The peer editing was extremely useful in understanding the point i want to betray in the essay and how to bring it into the essay.
