Exhibition Night Reflection
Exhibition was a very successful experience. In the humanities section, I was at my own table, with my timeline, binder, and name placard set up. Most people bypassed my table, but there were some that stopped by to listen. They were very attentive and I felt that I did a good job. I was working on paneling my novel during exhibition. In the pinhole camera section, I was with
I think that we worked very well together. We sort of alternated explaining our lab to people, and that seemed to work well. Our only weakness was when we talked over each other. I think that we worked well as a team.
I never really encountered a difficult interaction. Everyone that came across our table was courteous, inquisitive, and interested. The only difficulty I had was to explain my entire story several times. The speech that I gave got rather old. I was happy that most people were interested in my story. In the pinhole camera side, I think that everyone who passed by was interested and polite. It was a little bit easier to have a partner to help explain the lab, and also the lab was an easier topic to explain. I think that meeting people and coming up with answers to questions on the fly was a good experience.
I think that the only thing that I would do differently would be to wear different shoes. My legs were killing me after standing for 40 minutes during the photography demonstration. Otherwise, exhibition was a complete success. The only other thing that I would do differently would be to save my paneling drafts in a universal file format that works with both Mac and PC. I could not work on my graphic novel project for two days in a row because the file that I had on my flash drive could not be read by a PC. I could have been on my self or peer edits or even drawing had I had time to work on my paneling over the work time that we had before Exhibition. Other than those two things, however, I don’t think that I would change anything because Exhibition was a success.
