Final Project and Presentation

For you final project, you can choose to work on either one of the following formats (You'll have to notify me by May 31 in class which format are you going to work on):
1.     Your creative project for this class can be performed in any kinds of format: graphics, videos, crafts, music, or any types that you can think of. Your inspiration can come from one or multiple films, or cinematic/narrative elements.
2.     Your Final paper (8-10 pages, double-spaced, 12 pt.) for this class should focus only on one film from Wong Kar-Wai’s oeuvre. You may either examine a topic we covered in class in more depth, or select an area of interest that we did not directly address. Quotations from at least two readings assigned for class, and at least three readings excluded from the syllabus are required. For online sources, they must only be quoted if they could be classified as academic journals.

Your presentation for the creative project should have at least the following elements – though how you construct the presentation is up to your discretion: (It's always welcome if anyone working on a writing assignment wants to do a presentation as well.)

a.     (A rough draft of your creative work) with a brief introduction of your topic for the final project, including a short review of the important literature on it, and the general approach you propose to follow.
b.     A short clip (approximately 3 minutes) from your selected films as to support your argument.
c.     The presentation should be around 8-10 minutes.

Presentation will be on June 2 in class.
Your final paper is due June 9 by email. (Make sure you get my confirmation email) 
Your creative project is due June 9 by turning in your work to the School of Film office @ Lindley 378.
