Unit 3 Project Script Workshop #2


Unit 3 Script Workshop 2

1. Does the author’s thesis statement adequately answer the “so what?” question? In other words, does the author explain why their claim about the piece matters? Make sure the answer to the so what question isn’t unsurprising or generic.

2. Does the author’s analysis change or deepen your understanding or appreciation of the piece? Do you view the piece differently after you read the draft vs before? If not, suggest aspects of the piece the author might investigate further in order to deepen their analysis.

3. Estimate the proportion of the script that is devoted to direct analysis of the piece vs background information (including historical and background info, biographical information about the artist, etc.). At least 75% of the script should be devoted to analyzing the piece directly, so if this proportion is off suggest the ways in which the author might improve it.

Next, compose two additional questions that focus your reader's attention on issues that you have been dealing with as you composed this draft. You can copy/paste questions from previous workshops or compose your own.
