    In my process right now, I am try­ing to find the best way to relay the infor­ma­tion with­out mak­ing it sound redun­dant. I know that the prob­lem could be the insuf­fi­cient amount of research that I have col­lected in which case it is time for me to get back on that horse! But regard­less, the for­mat­ting of the site into pages is a very good idea and it has helped me spe­cial­ize each por­tion of my topic.

  • Jessica Wilcox says:

    I am still in the process of writ­ing and revis­ing my web text. Research is not my prob­lem, as I believe I have plenty of sources, but I am strug­gling to fig­ure out how to orga­nize my paper into a web text. I want the var­i­ous pages to seem cohe­sive with­out being depen­dent upon one another. Once I have final­ized my orga­ni­za­tion, I think my project should be good to go.

    I’m plan­ning on putting a pic­ture or a video in each of my pages and pro­fes­sor Hink said that sounds like a good amount just in case you guys were won­der­ing how many pics/videos to use! have a good week­end yall.

  • Campbell fay says:

    i still need to rewrite my paper. I need to orga­nize it, and I need to add some sources. Today will be a good work­day bc I have the rest of the day off. I look for­ward to finishing.

  • I have a full draft com­plete, I just need revise more and add more insight rather than ana­lyza­tion and cre­ate the web text.

  • Jordan Shiparski says:

    I am still revis­ing my draft for the web text. My cur­rent road block is find­ing a way to con­dense the entire film noir genre down since it has a lot of his­tory in its nar­ra­tive, aes­thet­ics, tech­nol­ogy, etc. I have found infor­ma­tion on more cur­rent works and how the style is trans­form­ing which is great. Though I most likely won’t have the web text com­pleted until Sun­day due to inter­net limitations.
