If I have another then moment. I’ll choose the path where I die.


This class has by far been my most productive, it’s the class I haven’t missed a single assignments and it’s the class I will probably take the most away from it. Granted it is the most relevant to my career path, but the If/Then moments were the worst.  I had so much writing the short fiction and non-fiction scripts as well as the final, but I found the If/Then moments to be so tedious. Sometimes I found myself focusing on these more than actual dialog and character development. But maybe that was the best seeing that was the point of the assignment. I’m probably just being silly because I’m a lot about character driven stories etc. The If/Then moments were definitely a learning experience, especially if it is the way of the future.  However I feel some wouldn't have done justice to their stories simply because of the If/Then moments. I had many friends come up to me asking me if one of the moments could simply kill off the character or just end.  I assume that could have been an option, I on the other hand wanted to explore multiple realms that the story could go. That was the positive, it ave my brain that extra boost to make the story that much more complex, even  giving the character more of a life. But it did get annoying and tiring to think of different story lines in a certain amounts of pages, and if I have to be honest, always favored one choice over another. In the end, it was defiantly an enjoyable experience trying to craft more opportunities for the character we have created, thus life is all about making decisions, but I think I’ll stick to linear storytelling.
