How much can I learn?
Summary work can sometimes be a challenge. The writing process however is never quite simply done. There are constant drafts and changes. Many of us can write a summary and then say we are done. That is not the best of our abilities then. In classes many of our professors require drafts to help us in the process. This week I have learned more about what is needed and needs to be included in a summary. One thing that I learned is that when writing a summary, we write about what the source does. In this case I have to write about what the film does, not what I saw. Another thing I learned is to write in the present tense even if the film takes place in the past. In my writing of my summary I have learned that I could have so much information in my summary, but I do not need all of it. I just have to find the main ideas of the film and expand on those to create a summary without using any opinions or getting into the author or directors head.
