WEEK 1 (The first class we meet!)
*
Describe IN DETAIL the work you are going to present (finished OR in process) when we meet together in Week 1. It can already be completed/drafted, or you can use this week before to get started. With our meeting times so brief, we think it's best for you to have begun your project, even a little bit. It's okay if the work is rough, it helps us get things into motion.
Each person will get about 12 minutes which includes feedback, so RSO recommends about 5-7 minutes of presentation and then the rest for discussion — but you can present for a solid 10 minutes if you wish!
WEEK 2 (Corresponding remotely w/ RSO)
*
Describe your first deadline and what you will be presenting remotely to RSO. As with class, send RSO something that he can look over in about 10-15 minutes (for writers: this is about 2 songs, 4000 words, or 8 script pages), and then provide feedback following.
WEEK 3 (Second in-person meeting)
*
Describe what you'll be presenting to the class. As always you'll have about 12 minutes to present and receive feedback.
WEEK 4 (Second correspondence remotely w/ RSO)
What will you be sending RSO by email for this deadline?
WEEK 5 (Final in-person meeting)
*
You already explained above what your final goal will be. Tell us what you plan to PRESENT in class of that final goal ... if you can't present it all, what do you plan to present?
What (if any) resources will you need for your in-class presentations?
