Piper McConnell Capstone

Posted by Piper McConnell in CTE Senior Capstone · Spry/Ugworji/Ustaris · Wed on Friday, May 13, 2022 at 8:31 pm

For my capstone, I created a magazine that features local artists to promote their work and stories through photography and writing. My magazine Artfully Aware aims to challenge readers’ definitions of art and perceptions of the artist community. Its purpose is to inform readers about changes occurring in the art world through the individual experiences of small local artists who are witnessing their community shift and expand.

The process of constructing my magazine involved interviewing local artists at SLA, gathering work to share from them, and creating my own content as a photographer and writer to tell their stories. A large portion of my capstone’s process was shooting and editing an editorial style photoshoot with the artist whose capstone project is featured in the magazine. The interviews that I had with the artists influenced the articles I wrote, the first about a senior’s capstone on costume design and another about Covid’s impact on the future of art. Those interviews guided me in the direction I wanted my writing to take, but they also gave me a chance to have conversations with smaller artists who have big things to say.

Macbeth Missing Scene: The Three Murderers

Posted by Piper McConnell in English 1 · Giknis · Y Band on Tuesday, January 15, 2019 at 10:51 pm
After the events surrounding Banquo's murder take place, the three murderers hired by Macbeth for the job are walking back from his castle. A conflict arises between the murderers concerning the escape of Fleance and who was to blame for the failed plan. 
This scene takes place while Macbeth is holding the feast at his castle after he has paid the murderers for their job. We thought it would be interesting to make a missing scene about the three murderers because we are not told much of them in the rest of the story. We wondered why it was easy for Fleance to get away and who each murderer would blame the situation on. If the murderers could have had more scenes, maybe we could get more of a glimpse into their morals and how they dealt with any guilt from their murderous actions. 
When we designed this project we tried to think of a way to create a scene that would be interesting and added more depth to the many layers in the story of Macbeth. Not only would it give you more information about what was going on outside of the castle during the feast, but would also show the audience other ways characters in the play were struggling to deal with morals and their connection with the outcome of certain events that occur in the play. 
Enjoy! -Piper, Mya, and Quaniyah
