Reflection
For our poetry presentation, my group was assigned the villanelle form and the poem "One Art" by Elizabeth Bishop. After finishing our poetry presentation in class today, I was very satisfied with the end product. The video turned out more nicely than we expected due to our poor lack of editing skills. Surprisingly, it didn't take long to film either. Initially I was also worried that our creative choices weren't too evident in the video, but presenting our choices before the video really helped people to better see the mis en scene choices we made. If I were able to do this again, I would go more in depth with the analysis of the poem because there were so many subtle nuances that I didn't have time to talk about. Moving forward, I have definitely learned the value of pacing yourself. Because we finished almost everything in class, we only had to get together twice to film and I didn't have homework all that week. Overall, I learned a lot about the villanelle form, and what is expected of group presentations in the future.
