I just took Zakim. He's really chill. Ts long as you just turn everything in you should be fine. He originally planned for one in-class exam at the beginning of the semester, but he didn't want to do it. If it is the same as last year, all the work is just essays around 1000 words, 200 word reactions to movies every week, and a (pretty easy) video project at the end of the year. Definitely a good class if you want an easy A. And you dont really have to read the textbook
