Newspaper Article
I chose this genre because I felt it would be the best way to explain a happening that would have taken place long ago. Using the point of view of a newspaper reporter, I could act like I had interviewed multiple people so that the reader would get the idea of what all of the different members of the town were feeling. The difficulties I had in writing this piece was incorporating what I had learned during my research without contradicting myself. Some legends claim werewolves are bitten into existence and others speak of a magic belt. What I liked best about this assignment was that I was able to actually describe a werewolf because I love using imagery.

Formal Letter
I chose this genre because I thought it would be interesting to let the wolves do the talking for once. I did my best to imagine what a wolf would think of this situation and just started writing. Difficulties I had with this assignment included making this letter sound formal and giving wolves an actual "voice" when I have never heard one speak before. The thing I liked best about this genre was I got to pretend I was not human and I actually got to scold the human race.

Image Analysis
I chose this genre because I wished to incorporate the symbolism of color into this project. I wanted to show the reader that the symbolism of each certain wolf came greatly from the color that they were because of what the human brain associates with each color. It is very psychological. The difficulties I had in writing this piece is trying to compact the symbolism of a color into a couple of sentences. This is a very hard thing to do since symbolism is an idea and not a concrete fact. The thing I liked the best about this genre was that I got to incorporate my own opinion into this part where in other genres I was not able to because I had to incorporate more research.

Quote Analysis
I chose this genre to show that the symbolism of wolves is not a tiny object, but a great idea discussed by the world. I explained each quote to the best of my ability as it pertained to the symbolic nature of wolves in different situations. The difficulties I had in writing this piece was simply the fact that these were not my quotes and I did not know exactly what the person who said the quote was thinking when the said it. The thing that I liked most about this genre was that I was able to give my own view about what some widely known quotes mean.

Stream of Consciousness
I chose this genre because I wanted the reader to be able to get inside of a wolf's head and think the way they would think. I accomplished this by thinking as animal like as possible. In this genre, I focused mainly on an animals motherly instincts and what they thought of the hierarchy of the pack. The most difficult thing about writing this genre was figuring out what wolves would call things. Wolves obviously would not call humans "humans" and guns "guns." The best part about this genre was I got to imagine how I would react to things if I was a wolf.

Free Verse Poem
I chose this genre because I feel that poems can often express what mere stories and writing cannot. I enjoy writing poetry and I often write about animals as symbols in my free time. The most difficult part of this genre was that I had no idea how to incorporate research into a poem, but I figured out a clever way of doing so. The best part about this genre was that I got to write a poetry piece, something that I love to do.

Video Analysis
I chose this genre because I wanted the reader to be able to relate something modern to the symbolism of wolves. In this case, the something modern was the Twilight Saga written by Stephen Meyer. This widely known movie was the perfect way to show to the readers that the symbolism of the wolf is in their day to day lives. The difficulty I had writing this genre was explaining the basic idea of what was happening to a reader who did not know the basic plot line of the movie. The thing I liked best about this genre was I got to analyze two video clips from my favorite video series.

If I were to do this project again, I would spend more time on it. I do not enjoy feeling rushed and in the end I did not like the project because of the rushed feeling. I do not feel that I learned as much from this project as I would have an actual research paper simply because a research paper is more formal and organized. This multigenre project seems like it is more for students who have trouble writing.
