So is your topic dreams? and If so what aspect of dreams? Also what are your visual metaphors?

Round two! What kind of resources are you looking at for this? I found 15 or so books on dreams at the public library, 3rd floor turn to your right. cant miss 'em. Also are you going to take any cue's from movies? like waking life? what about dream cliches you often see, for example waking up from a dream but your still in a dream.

The concept of dreams is a pretty broad one. It would be interseting to see how this project can narrow down its concentration to a specific thought. Maybe, nightmares or how we interpret our dreams. It could be about the sub-conscience and how it controls our ideas. Kind of like "Science of Sleep"

Okay. Your topic is dreams and your thoughts are wonderful though I am a little confused in what you want your audience to learn. Good start.

I have no clue as to how you will represent this material visually.

The idea of dreams is a huge topic -- I do not want to limit your explanation of this content, however, you may want to start to divide the subject up in subtopics or types of dreams.

did you list -- Sigmund Freud: The Interpretation of Dreams -- as one of your resources? if not get a hold of a copy
