ASAG1308 Narratives (Foundations course), Spring 2024
Prompt: Routine as Narrative
Students translate a personal daily routine into a narrative sequence across media. They begin with a written reflection, they then document the routine as a short edited video video with sound, then translate key moments into a sequence of images that are repeated and rearranged to generate multiple narrative possibilities. Students explore how meaning shifts through editing, repetition, and material decisions.
