pilot paper

Your Pilot Paper is a persuasive essay that will display your interpretation of a

film, piece of literature, television show, videogame, etc. Basically, you can write about

any piece of art that has impacted you in a meaningful way (this will make it easier to

provide a sense of catharsis). You will discuss the major aspect and ultimate meaning/s

that go beyond the surface of direct representation.

Your paper must demonstrate your ability to read and write critically. That means

that you should be writing about different aspects of the art, such as point of view, visual

and auditory aesthetics, plot, characters, setting, tone and style, structure, symbolism and

allegory, and ideas and themes. Use these in roads to develop your interpretation of the

art, since you will need to demonstrate how the aspects that you choose to focus on

support your individual interpretation. You should be using specific examples and

quotations from the art as well.

The paper will be between 2-3 pages long. Proper grammar and sentence structure

should be present throughout. As with all of your essays, use 12-point Times New

Roman font, double space, and have one-inch margins. All format should adhere to

MLA standards.

This paper must be submitted to iCollege before midnight on the due date. Any

paper that is not submitted to iCollege will not be graded.
