Talk:Emily Kennedy

Good description on problems with unique facial features and hair color and style. I like the neutral description in frustrations with the eyes, eyebrows, lips, and mouth. The transition in reasoning for the change in process between real and fantasy avatars is very nice too. The overly critical opinion of self is developed well in pointing out progressive features of your self that were unavailable on evolver.

Explaining how identity consists of more than just physical appearance also provides a good transition to explaining why you drew on your perceived true identity in creating your fantasy avatar. There was a very descriptive process in a step-by-step creation of the fantasy avatar which was rooted in personality traits of family members.

The use of the movie Avatar (not the shitty one), is a good foundation for her qualms about her real avatar and the reasoning for creating her fantasy avatar. However, I would like to point out that Jake Sully had no input in creating his avatar like choosing the best parts of their family and personality. His avatar was made in his twin brother's image.

Other than that point, the rest of the reflection based on Avatar rounds out the essay very well. Avatars can be whatever you want them to be and however you wish others to perceive them.
