“The true alchemists do not change lead into gold;
they change the world into words.” – William H. Gass
Here is my blog #12 about our class activity based on the two films that we watched last week. Our teacher gave us random pages from the movies’ script and we had to find phrases from these small parts of the whole movie and at the same time, these phrases must represent the movies in general. At the end of the activity, a poster to both movies had to been produced.
At first glance, it is so easy to find a phrase, but I have to switch off my knowledge about whole films and concentrate only on these two pages. It is like, I have to choose a couple of words to encourage someone to go and see these movies. One deal is o find phrases, another to draw them especially when your drawing skills at the level of middle school. Sabatino called this activity “regenre”. It was a very interesting and useful activity in terms of ability to interpret movies as an own physical picture. I think, “regenre” would help me in the research project by way of looking, evaluating, and interpreting my possible sources for the research project.

I am glad to see you valued our in-class regenre process. Your point about ignoring the entire film to focus on two pages for a message speaks to research interpretation at large: how we must use a focused lens to analyze part of a larger whole.

I love the pictures you drew out of the films.
