I read an excellent post on Medium comparing the punctuation use of multiple authors. It's cool! (no, seriously)

Phillis Wheatley was the first published African American woman, and in the poem "On Being Brought from African to America" she engages in a quiet, cultural rebellion with the use of a single comma.

9th: Cinematic Techniques Comparison (How I...)

This is how I would complete the assignment for this week, in which I must compare the effective use a three cinematic techniques by two different directors. I'll start with a step by step, then expand upon what I would do in each step.

  1. Identify a bunch of cinematic techniques in Big Fish that I though conveyed important information to the audience beyond just what was on screen.
  2. Watch TV, movies, and / or YouTube for a film text by a director using the same techniques. 
  3. Identify three of the Big Fish techniques that are effectively used in the text I've chosen, and consider their effect.
  4. Write a draft.
