Tragedy Project

A rough draft of the paper in correlation with our tragedy project is due this coming Wednesday, along with a rough sketch of our creation. I am not sure exactly what my 'creation' is going to look like. I'm stuck between a few types of media - music, theatre and film. The aforementioned topics are all things that I am very passionate about. I think I will try and possibly group up with some other people in my class and see what we can create together - that is, if we have similar interests. It could really go any direction at this point in time.

I was absent today (Fri.), but this week we did get a chance to read and analyze a poem entitled Patty's Charcoal Drive-In. This poem reminded me of a sort of hybrid restaurant - a combination between In-N-Out and Corvette Diner. I enjoyed it very much. I feel that it brings back a lot of memories about how many people may feel about their first job experience.

I also am unsure of what media I want to use for my project. I was thinking about film also but I don't think that we have enough time to be able to plan, direct, and edit a tragic short. I'm thinking I'll probably write some type of story, but I still have no idea about the topic.

A script could work for the tragedy project. As Mason mentioned, a film would take far too long to have any value. A script, for either film or theater, could defined be viable. Good luck on whatever you choose!

I do declare that I agree completely. I am unsure what to do, but something to do with theater or film, much like yourself, would be adequate.
