Today I handed back the sitcom scripts, which were FANTASTIC — everyone did a great job with story structure, character and dialogue. The scripts were funny and engaging and a joy to read . . .
. . . except for those recurring mechanics and formatting issues that we're not quite on top of.
So here's the plan: Everyone who got their script back today has 1 week to incorporate my corrections, fix ALL of the mechanics and format problems, and give me both versions next week (the one I handed back today, and the fixed one). I won't take any of those papers after next Monday except in the case of an excused absence.
If you turned your script in today, or are getting it to me by arrangement, I'll grade it and return it next Monday. You'll have 1 week from then to do the fixing.
If you were absent today, please pick up your graded script in the BECA Office. You also have 1 week to do the "fixing" — due next Monday, no exceptions.
We also started on the Radio Essay assignment. I read a few examples from the NPR Story Project; you can listen to some more examples here.
HOMEWORK:
Write a 2-minute radio essay about a personal experience; see Radio Essay Assignment Sheet in sidebar (downloadable). Due next week in class.
