Week 5: Wait, what does this have to do with my class selections?

I figured this would be a good week to discuss my class selections and how all this work at the VBC is actually relevant to those. That said my class selections are: Writing in the Workplace, Scriptwriting, Telecommunications, and an Honors Colloq.

For me, it's pretty easy to see how these class selections relate to what we're doing, but I'll go through it piece by piece.

Writing in the Workplace:
I know one thing students in this class on campus focus on is writing proposals. One thing we did here was do a pitch for the Museum of Art staff. We all had to prepare for it and plan out what we were going to say. Also, just that I often am writing to professional to get their opinion or set up appointments requires at least some formal writing style.

Scriptwriting:
This comes into play in the virtual tour group. We are each writing two podcast scripts pertaining to a gallery in the museum as well as a piece of art in that gallery. So, these podcast scripts are basically what is giving me my credit for scriptwriting.

Honors Colloq:
To me, learning so much about art has to go towards SOMETHING, which is where the honors colloq comes in. Since an honors colloq is pretty flexible, it's easy for me to simply envision it as an art appreciation class, and I've learned so much about art in this class it's easy to fit it in.

Telecommunications:
I'm getting immersion credit in my major for this project. This one is pretty easy to fit in, because I'm working on the documentary for the semester. It requires planning, shooting, and editing, which I think are important elements for any sort of TCOM immersion experience.

I think that pretty much sums up my schedule! This next week will be full of revision and capturing tape, so I can't promise next week will be a terribly exciting post, but I'll do my best! :)
