Project 4 Peer Review Day, 4/22

What I Heard

The two people that reviewed my project really liked my ideas and the story that I am remixing. They are both fans of Friends, so they were able to give me some helpful feedback on how I should recreate the story of Ross and Rachel. They suggested that I narrow down my topic even further than just focusing on Ross and Rachel by just focusing on Ross and making the remix from his perspective. I really like their suggestion because I think that will make the remix even easier to complete in the time that I have left before the deadline. I also think that narrowing down my remix to just Ross’ perspective will be more entertaining and less overwhelming for the audience.

My Revision PlanĀ 

Since I am now planning to focus my remix on Ross and his point of view (as well as focusing on the story of Ross and Rachel), I have a much better idea of the format I am using. I think that Ross would’ve been a social media guru if they had had social media during the time that Friends was filming, so I am going to use a fake facebook (fakebook) and a fake twitter (LemmeTweetThatForYou) to portray some of Ross’ emotions about the major relationship events that happen to him throughout the show. While I am going to narrow my focus on Ross and Rachel’s story, it is hard not to include some of the other significant others that come into the picture during the show as well, in order to fully represent the story.

I plan to use the events from the outline that I made and add pictures to go along with those events, as well as have status updates from Ross as “captions” to those major events.

I am excited about my revision plan; I got some helpful feedback, so I think my remix will be much more doable and less overwhelming for both me and my audience!
