Assignment 2C

After I had collected my three images I was then to go out and talk to people, show them the pictures and let them connect the three together in the form of a small story. As short paragraphs. All I did was ask the following people to connect what they see, this was the only question I asked, the rest was left to them. These are the stories that were made:

1. Today I saw the funniest thing ever, a very small bird pecked at a hay stack and it started to roll. What was funny was that it was a hill and the hay stack was basically chasing a girl as she ran and jumped to get away.

This was done by a male student, born on the 9/6/1990 making him 20 years old.

2. A girl who was playing in a field jumped over a massive hay stack and landed on a bird. The girl feeling so bad wrapped the bird up in some hay and took it back to hers to look after.

Again done by a male, this time an electrician born on the 12/10/1979 making him 30.

3. There was a little girl rolling and jumping about a hay stack when suddenly a bird pooped on her and she ran away crying.

By a boy in secondary school born 10/9/1995.

4. A girl was jumping and frolicking in a field with hay stacks and flowers and the birds sang to her as she played.

A female sales assistant born 8/6/1990.

5. While cutting grass for the hay, the young women scared a nest of blackbirds and the parents never came back. She looked after the chicks, feeling responsible for the loss of their parents. And once those chicks were grown, they lived in the apple tree at the bottom of her garden.

This one is by a female aged 21, and is a hairdresser.

6. A young girl is very carefree running over hay stacks while scaring the birds.

A short one by another female born 2/6/1988 and works as sales assistant.

Now that I have done this part of the task I find it very interesting that the stories were all similar but also different at the same time, all had the same connections but told in different ways. I found this quite difficult to understand at first but found it interesting to see the results people came up with.
