Co-writting

Co-writting Experience 


Honestly don't know where to start, so I was working with Dylan, he a lovely guy but honestly at the beginning of the semester, I asked him what topic to pick he said I don't know so in the end I choose the topic of documentary and memory.

when it come to research and doing the presentation slides for our first assignment, I told Dylan to watch a documentary and also research two questions, and write about them, but he never did that. so in the end I did the presentation slides and then meet Dylan and asked him to research what he needs to talk about and he was like I don't understand it. so in the end I written up what he needed to talk about. 

when it came to the essay, I told Dylan to what The fear of 13 again and write how memory plays a role in the documentary, but that never come around when I asked him, I also messaged him about meeting to do the essay but no reply, so I ending up doing it myself, with great difficult as I'm not the strongest with essays and theory in general, but I gave it a go thats all I can do to be honest with you.

I also know I'm messing a few blogs but dealing with mental health and everything else I kinda forgot about most of the blog posts so sorry for that.

Witness

Fight


I was about 14 years old, it was a Friday evening after school everyone used to meet up at the second tree in the fields, and play, man hunt until after dark and then all walk back home. normal every Friday there was always year 11s and 12s drinking up the fields and it was normal for all of us. 

but while walking back to the tree to meet everyone to walk home, a tall dark hair lad wearing black jeans and black hoodie who was with two skinny brown hair lads, who was wearing joggers, they must have been 18/19 years old as I've even seen them at school or any of the school around, but they started to cause argument with one of the year 11 boys, he was wearing a white t-shirt with jeans and had blonde hair.

the dark hair lad, swang for the blonde boy, and smack him right in the face but as he went to hit him back the other other lads went for the blonde boy was well and it was 3 against one, none of the blonde boys friends helped they just said there watching, laughing and filming, once the three boy where done they ran off, and the blonde boy was just laying on the floor with blood all over his white shirt and all on the ground, all his mates ran off after seeing the state he was in just laying there, one of my friends rang his mum and the police and also the ambulances.

How I Met Your Mother


How I Met Your Mother is a TV show, which always starts with Ted telling his kids his story of how he met their mother but telling it to them about the whole journey or meeting robin, getting left at the olter and other stories along the way building up to how he met their mum. 

The organisational and stylistic forces coalesce to present a unified representation of a subject, marked by clear contextualisation of knowledge within a relatively conventional structure - be it narrative, categorical or rhetorical. (Plantinga. C. 1997). Basically in every episode of How I Met Your Mother ted voice over will in each one, and not only he is telling his story to to kids but he is always speaking to the viewers watching, and using meanful and real context to tell his story the way he remembers is.

Blackfish

Blackfish 



Blackfish is a documentary, about Tilikin an orca kept in captivity,  it covers Tilikin being captivity since 1983, and the main story line in Blackfish is Tilikin being involved in three individuals death, while he's been in captivity and how seaworld actually treat there animal behind close doors!.

In documentaries we find stories or arguments, evocations or descriptions that let us see the world anew (Nichols. B. 2010) This works really well for blackfish as before this documentary was made everyone thought seaworld was a wonderful place, and all the animals got treated right and was kept in captivity for their own safety, But everything has a secret and seaworld also gives fails facts to their guests about the orcas and many other of the animals there. Not everything in Blackfish is complete true but major of it is base on true facts from old workers who used to work with seaward and have experienced working with the animals. 

Also it tells the story of the three deaths Tilikin have been apart of, but in my eyes you can blame the orca for the things that has happened and they were just mistaks thats have happened as he is an wild animal. In my eyes he shouldn't have been kept in a small tanks is whole life, and shouldn't be doing shows 3 times a day everyday of the week for people entertainment and joyment, because its not enjoyable to watch.
