I don't have an idea what I want to do yet for my final project.... I did a group project about Captian Jack Sparrow and I've decided its A LOT of fun to do a thing about maybe another pirate? The only reason I say this is because there is a WHOLE lifestyle that can be represented by a 21st century pirate. A guy/girl who has a thirst for booze, theft, sex, partying, and the open sea. ALSO pirates have their own language, and the dialect would be unique to the regon to which the pirate is found in.
Other ideas include...
Marvin the Martian (for the whole outerspace aspect of understanding human technology)
Sammy Cheddar (A african male who is so obsessed with cheese that he changed his last name to cheddar... recipies.... where to find BIG cheese... events that include the focus on cheese... how to make cheese..... green bay packers are cheeseheads)
Shaggy (From Scooby Doo) .. his webspace how to find the best social spots and places where you can get legal canibis, good snack joints...
Ferris Buler (Idiots guy to get away with things.... all things website)
Casper (All things paranormal... paranormal tv... paranormal movies, objects to see ghosts, how to get ghosts to pass on, how to communicate with ghosts, casper's uncles... casper's events include hauntings, possession, and eating sweet treats.... halloween bash)
This is the Word.
Something related to pirate culture would definitely be a good since there is so much and so many different aspects of pirate lifestyle you can utilize to make it an informative and entertaining project.
ReplyDeleteThese are good ideas - fun - but remember that this project asks you to perform one of your own identities - you as a scholar, you as a student, you as a film person, you as a hobbyist. With this in mind, could you perform you as a pirate fan? Could you use it as a space to pull together films, books, etc. related to this topic for which you have an affinity?
ReplyDeletegood point... I think I'm going to go pirate... could be fun to find... links, text, books, and other media to just blow up PIRATE all over it.... pirate fan I guess? Does that work?
