Unit IV Research Proposal

I will be working on the final project with Zoe Lee. We will be making a blog depicting the experiences of a guy, and a few other people, on their take of the zombie apocalypse. Through those people, our audience will learn about the science of a zombie and what makes one, and the psychological aspect of the zombie apocalypse on a human. I was interested on doing this project because a blog would probably be the easiest way to humanize the research Zoe and I did without a limitation of characters, like Twitter would, or the need of a picture each post, like tumblr and Instagram; and Facebook would be too much of a hassle to make an entire profile for each character that we will be using. Originally, we were going to use Twitter because of how easy it is to use, but with the word limitation being 140 characters, which would not fully show our main character’s problems an day-to-day life, and the fact that we would have to make multiple accounts, and they need a phone number or email to make, we just decided that it would be more practical to make a blog. Our overall goal is to combine both of the basic research from each of our unit 3 essays and convey it in ways of a psychiatrist, Zoe’s essay, and a person from the CDC, my essay. And with the help of two of the main character’s friends adding input, our blog will cover a lot of information and ideas over a period of time.
