Michelle Shakeshaft’s storyteller is Fran West. There are more components to her life than just flying. She has had many other achievements. Michelle has created a piece for publications. She has written a biography on Fran. The main focus was on her flying achievements around Australia. She has decided to compile her biography into a small booklet, representing a part of a larger book including biographies on all the storytellers involved in the project. Her biography is targeted towards the older population. She has found the whole process very enjoyable, and Fran has opened up to her, telling her information that she would otherwise not tell a stranger.
Eveleen Fazzalari interviewed Bevan McFarlan, and talked to him about living in Clare, and the changes in Clare between now and when he was a child. She began her application, an investigative report after two interviews with Bevan. The application was written for members of the Coromandel Community Centre. She researched the history of Clare from the council, as well as some various internet sites. Bevan also provided her with school magazines from when he was a child. She used black and white photos rather than colour versions in order to connect with the older storytellers and demonstrate the history behind Clare. To assist her oral presentation, she used a poster.
Sophie Kitchen chosen to write a feature article on the comparisons of school between the past and present. She has had two visits with her storyteller, Ian Will. The target audience for her article was teenagers, as well as the older people in the area. It was written to be published in the Blackwood Times, limiting the target that it may reach if published. She would have liked to have more interviews with Ian, and would have been better if they had been less awkward. Ian was very open in telling her facts, and that made the whole process much easier.
Tim Gibson interviewed Fleur Delaine. She has travelled to Antarctica and the Arctic. The first interview was a little awkward, but the second was much better, with Tim having a list of questions to ask, and Fleur having some maps and itinerates to loan. Tim wrote a feature article, and used and explained the features he used in order to write the article well. He thinks his article meets his expectations, but thinks it may be a little too short, and wishes he handed in a draft to help improve his application. To assist his presentation, he used a powerpoint.
