Project Outline: Today I wanted to share a wonderful and inspiring video from www.fiftypeopleonequestion.com. (-the Brooklyn one) This video simply records peoples responses to the question “where would you want to wake up tomorrow morning?’’ We will take the inspiration form the film and our own ideas and answer the questions personally through visual art. This may take two class periods to complete.
Conclusion: The class really enjoyed the project today! I couldn’t believe how detailed and thoughtful they were, It made me very happy to know how much they enjoyed this idea, and how much time they want to spend on it.
