Contributions to SATC Group Project

As for the Sex and the City project I contributed in a few different ways. Initially we divided the work and I was supposed to analyze two of the characters in Sex and the City but after Tuesday’s class and over the weekend that ended up changing because the class basically already analyzed the characters and we needed to organize the flow of our presentation. Over the weekend, I designated myself to find the academic article as well as do a close reading of “Beyond the Backlash; Sex and the City and Three Feminist Struggles”. After approval of five out of the six members I posted the article as well as developed a list of questions and topics to be brought up during our presentation. Earlier in the semester when we initially started discussing in the project, it was my idea to compare the female characters of SATC to the male foursome of Entourage. I also thought of the importance of the “city” as a perspective to analyze this text which was also reinforced after reading the Barker chapter. Through my idea’s I helped shape the context of our project. After finding the article, I also decided to make a playlist of the clips that we wanted to show during class so that we would not have to waste time searching on YouTube for the clips we need during the presentation. Overall, through emails I believe our group worked very cooperatively and decided to divide the work based upon the strong points of each member.
