1. What do you find most interesting about what he says on these pages?
So I accidentally read the later pages and I thought the story about the San Fransisco earthquakes was really touching. Just reading it I felt the impact of the earthquake. It was really sad to read about the guy who was just trying to save people.
What stands out as particularly useful to you as a storyteller?
The way he uses his words was really touching. Just the way he would talk about the issue that was going on had such an affect on the people. Like in Union.
2. What is the name of the story, and on what date did it first air?
Pianist loses fingers in snow blower, lives to play January 21, 2013
3. List and describe four instances of natural sound.The sound of the piano in the church
Sound of snow blower running
People clapping for Jim
4. List and describe (including the type and what they are showing) four camera shots that you find interesting.
I loved the shot from above the piano from behind the person playing in the church (m)
The (m) shot of his cut off fingers
(w) of Jim's drive way
(t) of Jim's stub fingers
5. Write a possible focus statement for the story (strong verbs; no “-ing” words)
Man continues to play with less fingers.
6. How does this story utilize Dotson’s “Building Blocks” (from Page 68)? Discuss a few of them, please. (100 words)
I read the wrong section.
