This
being the second time people came to class with Creative Writing Capstone
presentations, I felt like now is the appropriate time to react to them.
First thing, I’m not sure exactly
what the Capstone project entails of. I have already completed the
Communication Capstone, and from what I did with that, and from what I saw with
class, I’m assuming that it just entails of one big project.
Some
of the presentations were interesting. There seemed to be ideas all across the
border, poetry, prose, and the little trolls who live in a grocery store
interactive book. Honestly, that one I thought was pretty cool, although I have
no idea how someone could do it. I’m hoping to see some of these projects when
they are done, as I will have to do Capstone soon.
For
my Capstone I’m hoping to write and direct a short movie (or a long one if time
allows it). Considering I am triple majoring in Communication, Creative
Writing, and Electronic Media and Film, I’m really hoping to combine them all
to make something cool. I’m hoping to the creative writing program will help me
with writing for media, even if their aren’t very many classes that actually are
used for said profession.
Looking
back, these creative writing classes have guided me into writing for media.
They have given me story and dialogue ideas, and even though not much directly
for the media is there, I still hope they will give me something. I really don’t
want to think about the possibility of graduating with all these majors and
doing absolutely nothing with them.
Hoping
things work for the best.
