Some days we just need a reminder. Staying in the Word reaps this benefit: often God will use everyday, common, and not-so-common events to remind me of Scripture. Even passages that I haven���t necessarily memorized will fill my mind with truth. My value is not based on the world’s standards—but on God’s! #grateful #reminders #truth #scripture #Bible #enjoycreation #lovethecreator #nature #bird #photography #nofilter #fontmania #wateringcanblog #canonrebel (at Belleville, Illinois)

Adaptation Project: The Plan

Hutcheon had some points I strongly agreed with and some points I strongly disagreed with in her the text we received. I did not mind the read, but her style also did not appeal to me as much. She chose to list examples without backing them up with enough evidence/interest. It was like she successfully served up the main course without providing a dessert; but I digress. 

Concerning the thoughts I found valuable or unjust, she seemed to present some of both to me, though I'm sure some classmates would disagree. Though she did not necessarily endorse it, I gasped when I read the Walter Benjamin quote in the first paragraph: "storytelling is always the art of repeating stories". Yet I enjoyed Hutcheon's comparisons in the second and third paragraphs about different mediums and how society views adaptations within them; perhaps this intrigued me because of my "cave" illustration. 

I did find a few quotes of hers that will be of great worth as I ponder the direction of my project. For example, her statement that "adaptation is repetition, but repetition without replication" gives me a direction to go with my Lone Ranger plan. It is a lot easier to simply "redo" a movie, a book, or closely create a copy of a work in another medium. But it takes skill to unlock new features and shine a new light on an old work. I will try to do just that in my adaptation, and will not settle for replication. On the other hand, I found her claim that "the familiar label 'based on a true story' is a ruse" to be very shallow and unfair. 

I passionately agree with her mention of "spirit" that authors/artists/etc. place in their work (though it seems Hutcheon finds the idea of a work's spirit to be extremely subjective). I think this is one of the most crucial aspects of properly adapting a work, and that is making something that the original creator would approve of. I wish to accomplish this with my adaptation. I want to create a modern-day piece that Fran Striker would not only approve of, but also enjoy. Contrary to some modern adaptations that have been appearing throughout the past few decades, I believe there is a sort of obligation to the original creator. If we have the guts to recreate their story, we ought to have the guts to stick to their standards. Otherwise, why not make a new story? Plus, I think it's a sign of respect.

I hope to use what I read in Hutcheon's first chapter of A Theory of Adaptation to further my quest to produce a solid adaptation. Hopefully I can live up to the expectations I have set for my project!
