Hi, i know that haven't been writing for a long time.
So,i have been thinking about people's personalities, who they really are and how sometimes you want to be a different person in front of a new group of people. Become somebody else, may be somebody better or more interesting or just somebody different.
So, i was thinking to create a guide with full information about different characters and interests. For example, you want to pretend to be a model, so from the guide you will get information how to pretend to be one. The places they go, the language they speak and all the other information so you can easily fake it. I think that sometimes it can be real fun just for a little while to pretend to be somebody else.

Hey Olga,
the idea of hidden personalities is interesting, and how society expects certain behaviour characteristics from different sets of people, but a guide seems to be the easy option/way out and doesn't seem to suit the nature of the project.

a really good subject i think however the key does seem to lie in how you approach it. im worried though that where you'll be interpretating the ideal characteristics of someone in a certain occupation, you may generalise too much..and well we dont know eveything about every manner or job...do u see what i mean?? what about sellin people characteristics and letting them buy into a certain character?

You mean 'role-playing'?
I think they have certain stores that already cater to this. Or so I'm told. Ha.
Could be interesting to research 'hyperreality' Olga, where simulated life, in this case personality, is more interesting than reality, or ones own personality.
We have 9 weeks left on this project and you are promoting an idea that requires a considerable ammount of in-depth research. There are psychological and sociological rationales that cannot be skimmed over in order for you to conveniently produce a picture or guide book.
There is also a strong sense that this concept. (vague though it is), would be best served by a broadcst-based, documentary approach.
You are dealing here with a notion and not a concrete brief, hence the majority of assessment criteria, (that have been constantly repeated) are missing. For these reasons, I cannot say with confidence that you have the basis of a satisfactory project.
Can I suggest that you have an URGENT re-think and get back to me as soon as possible. There is a mid-term review of work planned for the firat week of the new term!
