When looking back on my own synopsis after this seminar and reading through the feedback from my lecturer, I realised that I almost tried to create a miniature version of my essay in my synopsis and tried to pack too much information into a small space. I set my synopsis out in paragraphs with a brief detail into myself and studies then carried on to talk about what I aim to discuss in my essay. Looking back I realise that I was potentially over thinking the essay synopsis too much when in reality I should have focused more on the essay its self and created an plan in the synopsis of what I aim to cover and discuss in my essay.
I previously wasn't aware that the synopsis could be made up of bullet points as well or instead of paragraphs, having known this beforehand I probably would have been able to set out to plan my essay better in bullet points and subheadings with shorter paragraphs. I think this would have made myself feel more prepared for the essay ahead.
Whilst reading through others well planned and detailed synopsis's, I came to the conclusion that many of them were about quality and detail compared to quantity, whereas I tried to pack a lot of quantity and information into mine which may have derailed the structure and made my writing come across weaker than intended. In the future I will now scale my ideas down and discuss two to three subjects in depth rather than touching on more topics in little detail.
I will need to make sure that this doesn't happen in my essay and plan to look at four key points in depth rather than lightly touching on more subjects. I plan to set my essay out with an intro, four topics and my conclusion.
- Intro
- Consumerism
- Fast Fashion
- Environmental
- Sustainability
- Conclusion
