Visual Essay

I am really glad that I signed up on Tuesday -- because I had never had to present a visual essay before, I was really unsure how to even go about it. The "picking your own theme" concept was especially daunting to me! I had no idea how to go about it, but I found that once I started taking pictures and was out in the city, the theme came pretty easily.

I was also worried about the pecha kucha style, too. I tend to talk a lot and in circles, too, and was worried that I was going to talk too much. But, especially after seeing some of the other presentations, I think the pecha kucha style is really effective. My mind tends to wander during presentations, but I was attentive for everyone's presentation, they were short enough to hold my attention. Everyone did a great job on choosing themes, too, and some of the pictures were really nice!

I'm looking forward to seeing the rest of the presentations today, and even though I was really unsure about the project in the beginning, I think they're all turning out really well, and I think the assignment is a good one. Really unique, interesting, and informative.

Good luck to everyone who hasn't gone, yet!
