Process update 3?

I don't know what else to say at this point. I'm working on it still in the middle process and just need to take a weekend to sit down and write. These process updates remind me of middle school when the teachers would walk around the room or computer labs and ask me what exactly I was working on...

response to readings 2

The readings were on metacommentary...which can be a useful tool...But I feel that it's over used and just ends up filling otherwise blank pages. I'm not going to do the required two hundred and fifty words in this blog, as a way of making a point.

Process Update

My process update for this project is that I am in the middle stage. All I have physically written down is the outline of my arguments and diagnosis for each character, and a few notes on different points to make on each character…I also have one or two paragraphs written down as to things I’d like to say. I just really need to add all the…meat for lack of a better word to it. I need to consider what rhetorical words to use. I want to try and establish some kind of sympathy for all the characters since none of them have a very happy go lucky background and I don’t want the paper to be dry.

The problem with this is creating sympathy for a character like the Joker, considering that he views people as objects and would be considered by few to be a person. The same goes for Two Face…half the time…http://instantrimshot.com/ See what I did there? I think I’ll try to build sympathy more on their origins than who they currently are as a character. Another problem I’m having is citing sources for why I believe a certain diagnosis or a philosophy fits a character. With comic books, especially with characters as old as Batman and his rouges, there are so many instances where a character will do one thing in one issue and then something completely contradictory in another. I think I’ll try to limit what exactly I’m talking about to what are considered the stories for the characters.
