Hi, I applied to RTA School of Media and a part of my non-academic requirements is that I write a 750-1000 word essay on one of the following six topics:
1. Invents a game in which players use two or more of the following: a red shovel, capers, Marshall McLuhan, an Edison was cylinder, a bagpipe, cockapoos, and Windex. What kind of audience would you expect to be interested in your game an how would you reach them?
2. Are we alone?
3. Albert Einstein once said, "The only thing that interferes with my learning is my education." How does this apply to you?
4. You have been elected Prime Minister of Canada. Describe the first law you would pass and why you would have it repeal it six months later. (Alternatively, you may also answer this question as if you had just been appointed a Chair in the CRTC.)
5. You have decided to create a television series based on your life. In the series, your character is the villain. Describe your character, the series, and which great work of art (from any media) inspired the show.
6. Imagine that you could spend an hour talking with any real or fictional person, past, present, or future, about their greatest work of achievement. Why did you choose that person? Describe your conversation with them about their work or achievement, its strengths and weaknesses, and how you would adapt it to another media.
I was thinking of doing either 2 or 3 but I'm not 100% on how to research either...
Also I was wondering what a bibliography was, does that mean I have to research the authors of my sources and write about them?
