Are you ready for the "Bad Attitude Comment of the Day" ?
I don't care about milk. Or milk production. Or organic milk. Or the process of making organic milk.
There doesn't seem to be much of a story surrounding the UNH organic dairy.
I can force a story out of it. Like a good college student, I could make something of nothing.
I was thinking about using the farm as the hub and then describing the research that goes on there.
blah blah blah.
So like a pro-choicer, I am relying on Plan B.
I am going to do a thing about tattoos.
And a thing about my dad.
Tattoos:
I am going to ask some local artists to describe their favorite 2"x 2" section of their favorite tattoos.
Nothing fancy; I am not commenting on the state of the scene, or the social relevance, or the personal statement. NO.
Just, in their own words, what's your favorite? Who did it? Why do you like it?
That's it. Color photos and audio.
My dad:
I helped Britteny work on her piece last night, and I was deeply moved.
I was about to say, "Let's do me now." But her camera died at the one hour mark.
I have never talked very openly about my father's death and I think this would be as good a chance as any to do something about him, my relationship with him, and how I carry him with me.
Details to come on this one.
Well, got to admit, sounds more interesting than dairy cows. I like the tattoo idea, with some macro (super-close) shots of those 2-by-2 (how did you arrive at that?) areas. Hope you can also get some video of tattoos also being done. I can see this all as very close up with a few scene-setting shots.
ReplyDeleteAs for your father, I had a feeling you would get to this, and I admire your courage. Between Amanda's mom, your dad, Britt's Justin, and my brother it's been a pretty emotional semester. Please don't feel you need to do two projects...but I can see that his might be good for you, and Britt would be helpful. Good luck.
