what do you appreciate most about your learning about web writing?
I found this class to be very interesting. I most appreciated learning how to incorporate design into writing. I am a graphic design major, so I have been learning how to design all sorts of things. However, for writing, I have always just written an essay and did not add anything special. I was never taught this type of writing. So, getting practice from this class has helped expand my knowledge. Understanding the audience and determining which style would fit them best has helped me practice how to design my writing.
The intersection of design and writing was probably my favorite part of this class. How those elements can come together to create more than the sum of its parts is rewarding. Both are aspects I enjoy immensely and work on regularly. My brain naturally has to to make things stand out for readability, using font, lines, shapes, and injecting color to make things organized. Having that be something that could be expressed in for assignments is just a plus in my book.

what are you most proud of with your writing process?
I haven't really had the leisure nor general time to just write in any complicity for a while. What I'm the most proud of with my writing process is simply the time I've been given to write and hone my skills. I do enjoy writing, even if the task is a slightly tedious like writing for a school assignment; But even if this situation is tedious, It still helps knowing that I will receive feedback on my completed work. This feedback helps improve my general wiring process tremendously by allowing me to see areas where I need to improve as well as areas where I may "over do" it.
@npfannen
Getting back into writing has been a welcome thing for me as well. I usually wrote something or compiled on my thoughts from day to day but with this class the writing has come more frequently and the desire to write things that weren't necessarily assignments allowed me to start a creative project I'd workshopping for a long while. This class was a good start to finishing my degree, hopefully it's a step towards the same for you.

⢠What are you most proud of with your writing process?
I think the process as a whole. Getting down the assignment into my draft and working out the details and pieces I need. Stringing that together and forming the ideas needed to fill in the gaps and then cut down and rearranging or wording things before sanding down the edges and getting it to a point that feels solid.
The writing process can be difficult. Part of me was concerned getting back into things this semester given it was after 5 years out of college. But as I continued with this course, I think I managed it well enough. It felt like riding a bike. Iām glad I decided to take the step to come back and finish my degree.

⢠Where will you adjust your writing process based on your experiences in this class? #writ318mu #week15
I would say most English courses donāt necessarily place importance on how the writing itself looks past the general MLA format. This course required you to be mindful of design and layout.
While I utilize design elements in writings for my own notes and campaign diaries when playing ttrpgs, such as the sectioning and organizing ideas, using different fonts and colors to assist.
I see the ways and value in adding those design elements when it comes to writing in general. It will help make my writing in the future to be better designed and structured, allowing for it to be more easily read, better recalled, and easily navigated.

⢠What are you most proud of with your writing assignments in this class, this semester?
I think the effort was my biggest motivation. I wanted to make sure I did as well as could with whatever assignment I was doing.
I think in particular the work I did with this last assignment with āFavorite Showā and the back and forth with the fans and TV Movie Studio Co. turned out great. I had fun making the icons and have each post have a different color scheme, profile picture, blog name. Each being tokens from npcs and monsters from a ttrpg, the references in the blog names, in the posts and responses.
It was all thought out and string together nice visually since I used tumblr itself to frame it. It was aesthetically pleasing to see all the different images laid out side by side on my screen. It felt good to work on and something I was proud of having done.

⢠What assignment questions do you have that will help you complete the assignment successfully? @npfannen
The assignment seems pretty straightforward. Answer the questions using examples from your work this semester. Reading the questions over they are definitely interview focused. This question maybe be unnecessary but I just want to make sure Iām conceptualizing the right thing as I respond.
So to clarify, should we answer the assignment question as students in this class? Or as someone being interviewed for a ājobā?
Thereās also mention of a time you worked with other people on a writing assignment. Iām assuming an example in general works for that one rather than something specific to this course?
I think from there the rest of it makes enough sense to work through without issue.

I stumbled across this series called Archive 81. I forget exactly when I found it after its release, and I never looked up any information about it. It's a supernatural horror TV series about an archivist named Dan Turner who gets hired to work at an isolated rich guy's house to restore a bunch of videotapes. Some videotapes he ends up watching were made by a woman named Melody Pendras. Melody documented her investigation of the disappearance of her mother by interviewing residents at a strange building called The Visser, where her mother was last seen. As Dan watched Melodyās tapes, things started to get extremely paranormal. I got really into the show and binge watched the entire season and was hype for the second season to come out. One day I was telling a friend about this great show and that they should watch it. I looked it up for the first time to show them, and the first article was about it being canceled shortly after its complete release. I was so upset because there was only one season, and the show hit its peak of twists, paranormal activities, and ended on a cliffhanger. Articles said there were different reasons as to why it might've gotten canceled. The most common answer was that they possibly did not meet the threshold Netflix had set for the series based on its budget. I understand that budgets and viewers play a big role. But the show reached the top 10 at one point and I think even hit Number 1 for a few days. So how much did they fall short to make it that high? I've seen shows get renewed that barely anyone knows about or never even reached top 10. it's not like the show had such crazy CGI either.
Iām always confused by Netflix and how they handle these series. Pour a lot of money into a series and if it doesnāt get the numbers we want well, guess itās a wash, on to the next one, ad nauseam.
My guess is theyāre doing a sort of rapid fire lottery sort of thing? Make shows and if they donāt become the next big thing since sliced bread, well, next one, something has to blow up right? Right?
Little do they realize theyāre shooting themselves in the foot. Audiences will catch on you cancel shows repeatedly and hmm, maybe that affects numbers for new shows. Just a thought.
Honestly itās shamed, Archive 81 sounds intriguing from that synopsis.

One of my favorite shows that is experiencing some controversy right now is The Last Of Us. A lot of fans have been upset over the casting of certain characters such as one of the main protagonist Ellie and another main character Abby. This show has been adapted from a video game, so people have been complaining that the characters from the show don't look like their video game counterparts. This show helps me while working on this project by seeing how the show and actors deal with this hate.
Iām not tuned into the series and the fandom much, especially now that itās moved into season 2. But itās genuinely disheartening how some of the fanbase acted towards Bella Ramsey for playing Ellie.
Very odd takes on her looks, people tend to get hung up a lot on how women look in video games⦠but thereās just a portion of the internet that gets weird about a lot of stuff.
Which is honestly ashamed because while not looking exactly like the in game version of Ellie, I thought Bella gave an exemplar performance. Some people just are never happy.

This isn't a show, it's a webtoon, but I still can't believe Black Haze just went on indefinite hiatus. I started it because I love underdog stories, and Rood Chrishi hooked me right away. This tiny, quiet kid whoās secretly one of the strongest mages alive (literally, heās the famous "Blow," but no one at his magic school knows).
The webtoon was getting so good too: Rood was undercover at Helios Academy, helping a bullied noble kid named Lidusis, but then they uncovered this whole twisted conspiracy inside the school. We were right at the part where the truth about Lidusis being called a "monster" was about to come out, and the plot was popping off with secret experiments, political corruptions, and betrayals inside the school, and then the hiatus comes... No ending. No answers. Itās been four years... I just wanna know what happens next...
Iām actually working on starting my own comic in a similar vein to webtoons and man, I am so paranoid of getting a block or something that leads to an indefinite hiatus. It makes me want to have such a large backlog already done before I even start posting it JUST in case something like this happens to me.
The creative spark is a fickle thing. After four years, man, like how do you even continue from that point? I hope I never have to figure it out.

One thing that always stuck with me from reading The New Gate (a light novel) is how Shinās (the main character) insane strength makes a lot of the story feel hollow. After escaping death inside a deadly game, heās so powerful that most battles have no real tension. Important characters and plotlines get brushed aside because nothing can actually challenge him. Itās frustrating, not because I hate Shin, but because I wanted the world around him to matter more. Thatās what helped me understand angry fandoms. I think people arenāt mad just to be mad; theyāre mad because they can see how much better the story could have been.
I felt the same way about a show I was really into. An anime called Seven Deadly Sins (Nanatsu no Taizai since that English title is painfully generic.)
It had a large cast of characters, on the good side, bad side, and some neutral parties. Eventually the cast gets to a large size on the protagonist side. The problem was the power scaling, the cast are variable when it comes to power but the lead is so much stronger than the rest of the cast and the antagonists put against him have to match that in some way.
This leads to these absurd moments where 7-11 characters are literally just standing around while these fights happen. It was so jarring I just stopped caring and stopped watching.
I wonder what purpose the overpowered protagonists serves. It seems to be popping up more and more and I just roll my eyes at this point when I see it.

My āFavorite Showā is an animated series based on an actual play ttrpg campaign. It has a lot in common with Critical Roleās Vox Machina given that aspect but the show Iām using as a large source of inspiration is actually Game of Thrones.
The more serious vibes, the attention to detail, the fantasy being more grounded with a dark edge, it coming from a solid and rich source material with a lot of potential. Only for it be mishandled and end on a sour note.
Game of Thrones could have been THE show, it was so well done and well received to the point where everyone was taking about it, even people who arenāt necessarily big into the fantasy genre. People, myself included, were really enamored by the show. For myself it felt like the first time a show felt a piece of art in a similar vein to watching a quality film.
Itās ashamed it had such a sorry end.

I was a big fan of Steven Universe. Itās an animated show with younger kids as the primary demographic but those sorts of shows still are enjoyable to watch. Things like Avatar, Adventure Time, Gravity Falls, all have that in common, where the audience is intended to be younger but they have stories that are interesting and that donāt exclude an older audience.
I actually didnāt like the show very much at first. The main character Steven I found to be annoying and unfunny but the concept of the gems as a race of interstellar life made of light was intriguing enough for me to give it a chance eventually.
I came to enjoy the series a lot as I watched the story unfold. Seeing the plot of the gems, Homeworld, and Steven grow and become more involved was an experience. It also showcased characters who exhibited gender expressions that were atypical. Steven was shown to be who he was, there were non-binary characters, and the gems themselves are all fem or non-binary presentingā relationships between them was inherently queer. While I didnāt think about much at the start was nice to see different sorts of people and experiences being shown. The show even had a wedding between two of fem presenting characters.
This unfortunately was part of the reason it was canceled. It got to end without a hard cut off but the show was canceled and this affected the story in a lot of different ways. The series received a min series sort of epilogue given the success of the film but it was honestly bittersweet given everything that lead up to it.
I respect the creator for sticking to her values. Steven Universe lead to a lot of shows having more representation in general. It walked so others can run and Iāll take that over it being cancelled for no reason.

Thursday Check-In Post - Week 14
⢠What assignment questions do you have that will help you complete and revise successfully? @npfannen
I intended to add images like one normally would with a post. Thereās some original art in the Part 1 submission, being the main cast of characters featured in āFavorite Show.ā That will mostly likely be the extend of it though since I probably wonāt have time to include anything more.
That said I do intend to add hashtags to the cancellation post. But Iām confused by the question you posted about where the fan responses will be located? I intended to draft up what they were in Part 2 of the assignment since part 1 was a draft. Did we need to specify whether the posts were replies, comments, or reblogs to the original cancellation post in the draft portion?
The other thing was the hashtags - you asked how will the fandom find each other? I intended for the first cancellation to lead to the fan reblogs, and those reblogs would receive comments from TV Movie Studio Co. Also I was under the impression the angry fan posts were supposed to look ārealā, so the hashtags I included were supposed to mimic that. Most people include pretty varied hashtags from what Iāve seen. Should I include a central hashtag across all the posts?
As for the company responses - in that section I included a numbered table with the previous angry fan response comments. Directly under each fan post was the company response to said comment. Perhaps in the back and forth of plugging the information I forgot to label everything properly, I just assumed the table made sense.
TLDR:
- Does including images like we do on tumblr work for this assignment? I only have so much original art and itās mostly character focused.
- I included hashtags for the fan posts in a way that I felt mimicked real life. Should I make it more uniform? Is one unified hashtag across the various posts enough? My plan of format for the various posts is:
- Initial cancellation post
- Angry fan reblogs
- TMSC responses in the form of comments
Does that sound reasonable?
Connecting With Show Creators and Producers
Explain how audiences connect with show creators and producers on social media
When I saw this question, I immediately thought of Dan Povenmire, one of the creators ofĀ Phineas and Ferb. Through social media platforms like Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok, fans ofĀ Phineas and FerbĀ are able to connect with Povenmire. Iāve seen him answer questions about the show, review fan art heās received, and generally engage with the audience. Connecting with show creators and producers through social media builds a deeper understanding of the show and gives the audience insight into the thought processes behind its creation.
It's interesting how much the internet has made this sort of interaction more accessible. Before people would still correspond but it was through snail mail. I recall magazines being a thing where people would send in questions or art. Things like Dragon magazine for DnD and GameInformer. Getting that insight from the creator of a series, especially one whose kind and clearly adores the series they made is probably as good as it gets being a fan. There's also the opposite, where the creator is well, bad, and they won't shut face about being awful or they true out to be extremely awful but, that's a talk for another day. š š
