setting.




                           

Workshop 2 Linking themes to the impact of angles, Movement and shots

Brainstorm
                               other
 Whats happening

                              - Wylie standing on stairs outside house. Other mother
                                aks him to smile from doorway, instead, he frowns.
               
                               - Other Wylie making self smaller - less of a target - head down
                                 shoulders hunched. looks week and vulnerable

Angles / shot 

                                - High angle - makes Wybie looks overpower, week & vulnerable.
                                  POV - other mothers, makes her seen stronger, bigger, more dominant.

• Viewer - makes viewer feel sorry for / scared for  O Wybie foreshadowing - hinting at whats is to come.
• Director - hinting that maybe the other mother inst so wonderful.
• Other techniques - Lighting - spotlight on Wybie - like he's on the spot/under focus - dark around creates a creepy atmosphere 

In the scene with the other mother and the other Wybie we see high angle shoots used to show the theme looks can be deceiving, We see this when the other mother asks, the other wybie to smile but he hunches over and frowns instead. this matins the audience feel sorry for the other wybie because he looks scared. the use of a high angle shot from the perspective of the Other mother adds to this feeling as it make the other wybie looks weak and vulnerable. the director did this to foreshadow the change of the other mother from creepy to more creepy. coinciding with this is the used of lighting. a spotlight is on the other wybie emphasising that he is unties the focused of the other Mother. this remids us of earlier in this film where a low angle shot was used to make wybie seem big and scary but really be was just ordinarily. this links to the scene because it also shows a moment when the looks of a character was deceiving.

Work shop 1 Unpacking themes and Ideas.

Them & Ideas - Continuous idea/ subject that links throughout the text.
'looks can be deceiving' - Don't judge a book by its cover
                                       - Don't judge by appearance

Example 1: Character of Wylie - when we first meet him he seems scary ( mask,motorbike
                                             use of high angle to look bigger, land music ) but in reality
                                             hes just a weird neighbour
show theme because like other characters, our first impression based
on appearance, tone,visual techniques aren't always correct.

- Important because helps audience understand with Coraline
   that just because something looks good doesn't mean it is -
   She should choose the real world over the other world.

Example 2: Character the others mother - she seems normal / friendly
                    At the start but by the end become a soul
                    devouring spider demon.
-shows theme because other mother' isn't what she appears to be at the start so we shouldn't judge by first impression.
 - important because Coraline realises that having something that looks perfect isn't always a good thing.

Statement - in Coraline , the theme 'looks can be deceiving' is used effectively
                   to engage the audience.

Evidence - for instance, the character of the 'other mother' shows us that looks can be deceiving because she start off as a kind mother figure
but gradually changes into a soul devouring demon.

explanation - this make us understand that we shouldn't judge a character
  audience       based on first impressions as they can often be wrong.

explanation -  This is done to help Coraline decide between the real world and the other world. if the director          other mother' was really perfect Coraline wouldn't choose to go home.

explanation - combine with this is the use of colour and lighting. the other mother first appeas in a vibrantly bright room that make us feel warm and safe. however, by the end it has become dark and green which makes the viewers feel scared and show that hers first look was deceiving.

Your link - this can be juxtaposed to the character of wybie who we think at first is evil but is actually kind, proving looks can be deceiving.
