  • Hurihia to aroaro ki te rà„ tukuna to atarangi kia taka ki muri i a koe.

    Turn to face the sun and the shadows fall behind you.


    Kia ora. I hope you have all had a good break, have not stressed too much about assessment tasks, and have started to get to grips with our new distant learning reality.  I must admit, I am keen to get back to Mission Heights and to catch up with you all in person, but until that is an option for us, we will have to do the best we can. We have been looking at film techniques, and how these are used to create an effect on the viewer. This week, I would like you to work with a film you choose for yourself (remembering to make sure it is suitable for both the school and your family values), with a specific focus on the techniques used by the director to influence our attitudes towards the protagonist (good guy) and the antagonist (bad guy). These techniques may include the framing, the lighting and even the non-diegetic sound used when each character is viewed.  You will create a slide show to share with your classmates that provides visual evidence of the techniques you have identified together with a short explanation that compares and contrasts the techniques used for each character. I will create an exemplar and place it on google classroom for you to reference as well as a template for your own slideshow.

    Success Criteria: I can/have...

    • select an appropriate movie
    • identify the antagonist and protagonist
    • describe the film techniques to establish character
    • compare and contrast the film techniques used for antagonist andprotagonist

    2. Identify protagonist and antagonist
    3. close viewing to identify film techniques used
    4. create slide show
    5. explain/compare and contrast film techniques used
    6. Write here

    Homework:
    Everything :-)
