Building a Sustainable Future
Humanities
While a video essay benefits from the affordances of its multimodality, it is still an essay. This means that it must be argument-driven, and structured to prove its thesis. The evidence you use to achieve this goal can include audio, images, video, and narration. Your video essay must:
- Be 4-5 minutes long. You will convert this video into a YouTube or Vimeo link.
- Incorporate research. This includes primary science fiction sources but also academic and popular press research on your challenge.
- Include narration from all group members.
- Analyze how science fiction responds to and offers solution to your group’s Urban Sustainability Challenge.
