Progress

As the year goes by more and more effort is put on my project so it can come out to be well-presented. I have started to seek out the means in which I want to show movies on campus, but had a little opposition. It was advised to me that to show the movies wouldn't be a good idea (presumably) since it would be a large and cumbersome process. Instead I should just show clips from the movies and make students ( whomever is interested) go and watch the trailers and then watch the movies themselves at home to talk about the film later. I found this to be a little unsatisfactory, since first of all, how many of the students would actually watch a particular movie? Wouldn't it be better to just have one night where students can enjoy an evening and then talk of write down about their thought on the movie? I believe it'll be best that I show a movie before I actually have to present my senior project to my review panel. I'm most likely show my movie before the second to last week of May. I'll show the movie in the green room inside the gym where the movie would last only to about 2 hours and there would be refreshments. I'm currently working on the questions I'm to ask the students who participate in this and have them talk or write down their ideas or views on the film. I still have to work to see when to show my project to my review panel and send out invitations to them. So far everything is going well.

  1. I agree with you Alex. I would be nice if we could just watch a movie, the true problem is when. Chinquapin students only have so little free time (well, the older ones) to view a movie at night. However, I really think you can pull this off if you managed to schedule the movies. The quicker you get this going, the more movies you'll be able to show.
