Portfolio papers prompt

I think my best paper so far would be my McCandless essay, since i feel that i established a solid arguement and did a decent job at supporting it. The paper that needs the most work would be my research paper, since its missing its purpose, which is a significant part to any paper. If i can just flesh out a solid purpose, then maybe i can create a great paper.

Primary source blog

My primary source is a book about Desert life and politics. I chose this source because i can easily arguement the formation of a political like power coming together in the desert life, which is where my film takes place. My arguement for the source would be how desert life "politics" change based off of the circumstances presented in the desert itself, which may interest a political audience of some kind. That audience can glean that media can influence or be influenced by surrounding environments.
