Creative Project #1 Proposal
This Proposal is worth 5% of your final grade, but it also contributes to your Creative
Project #1: Initial Interpretation of the Good Life grade. If you do not complete the
Proposal, you will also lose points on your Creative Project #1 grade. You do not have
to comment on anyone else’s Proposals, but encourage you to check out what others
are proposing. 🙂
Answer the following questions about your project as thoroughly as possible:
1. Idea/ Purpose: What is the topic? Be specific. What is your purpose in making a project about it? What are you teaching/showing/sharing with your audience? What is your argument in regard to “the good life?” How does it relate to our course, either directly or indirectly . Remember you are making a project that is focused on your interpretation of the good life. It doesn’t have to be a “happy” interpretation. You can interrogate the concept. If you are stuck, go back and read through the assignment for ideas/inspiration.
2. Form/Medium: What form will your project take? Design ideas? What will be
included in it? How long will it be? Why?
3. Audience: Always always always consider your audience. Who is this for? Primarily, secondarily? How will you make appeals for their attention? Pathos, ethos, logos, kairos? What about tone? Will you deal with your subject as a scientist might? Like an artist? Like a politician? Like a comedian? Like a teacher or mentor? Like a peer?
4. The Process: How will you work on this project? How will you plan your time? Include a brief timeline in your proposal. How will you align the pieces of the project? Consider what you’ll need to do with layout, design, tone, content, arrangement, editing, etc.
5. Development: How can you challenge yourself with this project? What are
you hoping to get out of this?
6. Questions: What questions do you have for me? How can I help?
