Film Projects (Past Due) & Portfolio

Your film projects are past due.

Today, you should prepare your portfolio. The most important part of your portfolio is your reflection. Please reflect (in writing) about your understanding of the craft of writing as it pertains to your original work. What have you learned about the four genres (poetry, fiction, scripts, non-fiction/journalism) this year? What have you learned about the writing process in terms of your own artistry? Reflect.

Do not spend your time revising. It's too late for that. Just pick a few samples of your BEST work this year (that which is polished enough or of which you are proud). Put it together with your reflection and turn in by the end of class.
