Carolyn Maynard’s Transvespionage Response
Overall, this was an interesting experience. I think with better organization the final product would have had a stronger impact.
The process we used to make “Transvespionage” worked in the beginning, but as the story progressed alot of us became disconnected to the story and no longer knew what was going on. We may have been able to avoid this confusion if we all read it as a class before we started the next episode. However, since only the previous writers were the only ones that knew what was going on, this project kind of served as an exquisite corpse. And as an exquisite corpse it’s a master piece.
Going into the project, I was really hoping that each episode could have been done in a different style. For example: The first episode would be written as a script. The the second episode could be written like it’s an excerpt from a novel. The third episode could have been written in a comic book style writing… This would have made everything a lot more complex, but I think it would have been an interesting story to look back on. If we would have taken this approach we would have definitely need to organize our story line better.
I feel like every individual piece is done well. The writing on its own is good, the pictures are all really interesting, and the process was fun.
