Literacy/Technology

Kind of a weird week to place, with Thanksgiving cutting off one of the classes (Labour Day and Remembrance Day also taking their toll on the Monday-night classes), but in this lull I was able to read more of Saldaña and Chekhov, preparing for the presentation at the end of the month. I also presented a Trailer Making workshop in the Digital Literacy Centre (same classroom as where the Drama and Literacies course happens. For my example, I selected the excellent 2006 Christopher Nolan movie, The Prestige, and demonstrated the steps for making a trailer based on David Bowie’s performance of Nikola Tesla. Will try to upload the presentation on this post.
