Kate’s Reflection on Blogging
I found the blogging experience with Transvespionage to be pretty chaotic. It was a fun way to spend a class period, but it wasn’t very beneficial in this case. The changing of roles every time created a lack of order in the story and left the directors and writers somewhat confused most of the time.
The specific story we created as a class wasn’t great — it was sort of a disaster, but the overall idea for a creative collaboration was good. Bringing together different skill sets and types of creativity allows for a wider range of ideas and possibilities for people to build on and can potentially make for a better end result. I feel that this particular experience would have benefited from a topic that was more relatable to everyone in the class. This may have helped the story flow better. The experience of playing a part in each of the different roles also helped to allow everyone to try out different things, not just stick to their strengths.
