Hi all:
I am out sick for Monday and Tuesday but plan to be back in class for Wednesday. I realize that this is a terrible time not to get any feedback on your projects, but please do the following:
If you are really worried about your paper, please go to the Writing Center located on the first floor across from the registrar.
You can also post here.
Keep working. You can all do it!!!!
Looking forward to seeing all of your projects (print and film) on Thursday.
Best,
Prof. Keane

- Today we learned a lot about movie making and figured out work arounds in terms of technology. A big thank you goes out to Dr. Kaur for coming to B107 and helping us out.
- You should all think about the movie that we previewed today and the ways in which color transitions, and storytelling come together.
EBS 014/015/015 & 020A
Paper
- Today you all worked on your detailed outlines for your papers. My goal is to take a look at them all tonight and then provide you with some feedback for tomorrow.
- This weekend should be all about you drafting your paper.
- Tues and Wed - Works Cited in class
Film
- Even though we couldn't get the DVD to play, curse you technology gods! - we did have a good conversation about visual storytelling.
- In the next few days, your projects need to really take shape. Don't forget about the Bergie's!

Good morning all:
We now officially have two weeks left to the semester. Hard to believe how quickly the time is moving. At this point, you must be working fully on your final project (film or paper).
For the film project, if you need to borrow a Flip Camera overnight, please contact me ASAP to arrange for this. If you are using your own camera, then just let me know.
For the paper project, I would really like for you to think about perspective - or the point of view that you are going to write your paper from. For example, are you going to write from your own vantage point as someone who has to make good choices in less than idea conditions? If this is the case, then you would want to use "I" since you are talking about the way the research affects you. If you are writing in support or in opposition of the lawsuits against McDonalds, then you would take a third person approach.
Make sense?
If you are confused or need help, please make sure to contact me ASAP. Please remember the regardless of whether you do the film or the paper, all projects are due on December 17th at the start of class. I will not, for any reason, accept any late projects.

Prof. Keane
