“Documentation”
Due November 6, electronically accessible.
Your resume looks great - how can you back it up? Students will prepare a piece of “documentation” relevant to their career goals. This can take the form of an academic writing sample, a creative writing sample, a recorded audition/reel, a recorded example of a production you directed or designed or wrote, a portfolio of design-based work, a website in process -- or any combination of the above. Students are encouraged to develop documentation they will use for upcoming applications or projects. You will make your "documentation" available for others electronically a week in advance and receive give feedback in class. Your documentation should not take more than 15 minutes to engage (unless it is a writing sample, in which case try to limit yourself to 15 pages for an academic paper, and 30 for a play). We likely will divide into groups for this.
