During our visit to Madras Crocodile back, we presented our work in progress. My main feedback was to explore being the Lapwing and also different perspectives. I was trying to understand what kind of information the scientist usually look for, as I am also trying to cater to this group. Apart from this, we spoke about the tangible form of this project. Something that gives you the point in 2 minutes, but by looking for longer you start dig deeper into the content. I have decided my final outcome, which will be an illustrative book/ picture book for young adults and above (and below). and also to fish out more case studies on Lapwings, mainly to understand the bird and secondary to see what kind of scientific information is out there, and to a layman, how does it get comprehended.
Class feedback: During my first draft of narrative writing, there was distinct distinguish between the voices, there is the narration, personal voice and factual information. The personal voice can play the voice of the lapwings and the narration can go on through out. During feedback session, it came up that this variation can get confusing and there should be a clear indicator to what is saying what, by forming a hierarchy in the voices. I have all the information, and I needed to quantify all the information collected and organize it. the size of the book was discussed and there is a very mutual energy of wanting the book to be bigger than regular sizes, opening up opportunities to explore forms within the book constrain. Also one of the voices should portray the desperation of the lapwings, who are loosing their habitat. My visual form so far, has a quirkiness to it that is making it humorousness.
