Woody Allen - Writing Project & Upcoming Test

Due: February 27.

Please complete the Woody Allen project (either project A or project B, see handout), due after break. I'd encourage you to begin during February Recess to give yourself appropriate time to complete the writing.

Additionally, please complete Woody Allen's Without Feathers. You should be familiar with the stories and articles in the book, the techniques of comedy (posted on the blog below), the types of camera shots, and the term "Auteur", Woody Allen's biography, films we watched in class, etc. There will be a test on him Monday, Feb. 23.
