Film Objectives and Outline

The film will focus on the opportunity to investigate profiles in detail – answering they why question of my proposal.

Objectives/Emphasis

  • Spatial and written profiles are selective ways of viewing the world – silhouettes (TRO)
  • Profiles of community members construct organizational identity, even if in the case of universities multiple voices overlap
  • These profiles can be read an analyzed individually and together (intertextuality).
  • Textual features are a way to gain access to situations, context, culture, or ideology.
Outline (storyboard presented in class)
  • Intro: Silhouette of iconic university building (.5 min)
  • 4-6 Silhouettes of university buildings – 10-15 seconds each (1 min) End with comment of reflection and reproduction – silhouette of reflection pool webcam image.
  • Screenshot movie of reflection pool webcam (1 min)
  • 4-6 profiles, 10-15 seconds each (1.5 min), voice over quotes
  • Corpus of profiles – highlight tower shape – fade into first building silhouette (.5 min)
  • Credits and Special Thanks (.5 min) “We will become silhouettes” by The Postal Service
