…and the day finally came! A bright Friday morning rolled around and both classes of Escolapios walked out the door and into the waiting bus. It was time to head to Berklee Valencia Campus for their recordings.
The final day at the classroom setting was one of intense work. Student were reminded of all the diverse points of view and new ideas they had practiced for writing (automatic writing, changing the perspective of the voice, metaphor and simile work, prosody tools, etc.).
Class B created an “exquisite cadaver” as part of their activities with David Trashumante. You can find the final result here:
