Assignment 3

In comparing and contrasting Project Runway and Top Chef to our assignments in class i see quite a few similarities as well as connections that i believe don't coincide with each other. First off in both instances the challenges or assignments build on what we already know how to do and which helps develop more complicated composing strategies to help us overcome our challenges. Along with that how well we do on our challenges is a direct relationship with how much effort we contribute. Some other ways that the two are comparative is the fact that both of the challenges focus on detail and understanding. For example a paper you right has to make sense to both you and the reader, and a dress or food you make needs to make sense to both you and the person eating it or judging it. In other words your style has to match what they are asking for. However the shows and the assignments don't exactly go side by side. First off these assignments seem to be so much more descriptive than what they contestants had to work with, which i don't no is a benefit or not because unneeded words can sometimes distract or confuse the contestant in the true objective. Each approach to delivering an assignment or a challenge is trying to tell you in the best way possible to what you need to do to be successful. I believe that the most over-looked part is the fact that they don't give examples to better understand what they are looking for in the challenges. The most successful approach to delivering a challenge i believe is be be very straight forwards and use words that are easy to understand for everyone, and if possible they should try and include examples so the contestants will know exactly what you are looking for and there wouldn't be any confusion.
