Revising a draft should be done in an organized manner. The first thing I will do to revise my draft is read over all the suggestions and corrections that were made on my essay by the professor and classmate. This will give me an idea of how much revising needs to be done. I then will go through my essay and fix any grammatical errors such as, any missed spelled words or fragment sentences. After this I will take out any unnecessary information to make sure that I am focusing on a particular scene. This includes summary information that does not belong in the essay. I will then move around information in the essay to make sure the sequence is in the right order. This will help make the essay understandable and less confusing. After that I will continue to watch the scene in the film and see what I can add to the essay. I will further my understanding of the scene and develop well thought ideas of what the filmmaker is trying to get across. Once I have a clear idea of what the essay’s main focus is, then I will revise my thesis. Once my thesis is written and revised I will then write my introduction. Now that I have a good understanding of the entire scene I will be able to write a well developed introduction. The final step will be to revise the conclusion and take into consideration the revisions that were made on it.
