REFLECTION
REFLECTION
This assignment was definitely helpful in organizing my thoughts and clarifying a few gray areas, specifically with my thesis and some spots of analysis in my discourse section. I also tried to test a few other topics as well, like the book burning scene analyis. Although I don't think it would fit smoothly in the essay, it was interesting to see what other scenes I could break down and incorporate into my paper. The presentation also allowed me to incorporate things that can't be done through paper, like the video clip that I used or the voice overs. It was nice to dive more into the film analysis aspect of it since I only dedicated one paragraph to it in my paper, so I might consider adding an aditional paragraph if I can figure out how to transition smoothly into it. I enjoyed talking through my thoughts and ideas. It feels easier to do compared to typing it out on paper, perhaps something that resembles a sort of stream of consciousness style of exploration. It definitely gave me a couple more points to write about when trying to establish the scholarly discussions about comedy in Holocaust films, specifically for the scholars who were in support of comedy. I thouroughly enjoyed the process of making the slides and recording, but it definitely took a while to edit and process since I used seperate audio clips for each slide. And on top of that, I had to clip the length of the video, but it helped me to focus on the main points of my paper.
