Project three outline

In the following blog post I outline my strategies for project three

Introduction


  • Connect to the audiences world view.
    • Everyone watches movies and knows big Hollywood stars, so that is a good place to start.
    • All of y readers will have a substantial interest in movies so relating to them and appeals shouldn't be a problem. But convincing them will be.
Body

  • Major supporting argument against film
    • The progressive modernization and catching up of digital 
    • the economic reasoning of digital
    • The decreasing number of film producers
      • All of these can be good evidence for embracing digital
  • Major supporting arguments for film
    • The traditional feeling and texture of film
    • More life like
    • The psychological effect of only having so much room to shoot
      • All of these can be considered good evidence for shooting on film still
  • Major criticisms of film
    • It is now un reasonable to be spending all the money to get a film reel
    • It takes more time than it should
    • It isn't progressing fast enough
      • All of these can support a switch to digital
  • Major criticisms of digital
    • Cant' do the things that film does
    • doesn't give that cinema feel
    • ruining the psychological feel of digital 
      • All of these can support a continuation of film
  • Key points and rebuttals 
    • Points to support my solution 
      • Producer make directors justify locations and equipment based on character, story or techniques
      • People don't want to fight
    • Key points against my solution 
      • Film should be unified and standard
      • People need to be on the same page
  • Potential topic sentence for each support paragraph 
    • "Digital provides a rapidly progressing and economically reasonable medium for filmmakers to shoot on, along with a distinct look and feel to the shots."
      • Paragraph explaining digital filmmaking 
    • "Film still holds that classic texture and feel that people are used to seeing, plus it still has the capabilities that digital doesn't."
      • Paragraph explaining shooting on film
  • Potential topic sentence for each rebuttal paragraph
    • "While it is true that digital doesn't have the abilities that film does yet, it is advancing so quickly and it is so much cheaper that it has to be embraced".
      • Paragraph for those opposing digital 
    • "Movies are all about visuals, so since film has the most pleasing look, then it shouldn't be tossed out and it should be shot on more."
      • Paragraph for those apposing film
  • Gathering evidence
    • Since this will just be my opinion and knowledge I won't be using any outside sources but my own brain.
  • Mapping the argument
Conclusion 

  • Future of the debate
    • This debate reached a boiling point but will soon be irrelevant because of the progression of digital
