Sexxxy paragraph :
In the film wonder, low angle shots were used effectively. This is demonstrated in the scene where Jack attacked Julian because he called Auggie a freak. In this scene a low angle dutch tilt shot is used to make Jack look stronger and make Julian look weak and vulnerable. This makes the audience feel shocked, surprised, worried, anxious, nervous, because we didn't expect a violent reaction from Jack, who has not shown aggressiveness before this point. The purpose of this was to show the theme of kindness as Jack finally stands up for Auggie when Julian says something rude and unkind about Auggie. Combined with this is the use of quite, minor music and slow motion is used to create an atmosphere and make the event feel more intense. This can be contrasted to the nature reserve fight scene where Auggie now shows kindness by standing up for Jack.
B - Fight scene - nature reserve - Auggie makes friends, high 5 - no plague Jack, Anons & other's. They bet up & ran away from 7th graders.
- Wide angle, Long shot - Makes up feel like we are a bystander watching an important moment for someone else, the emotions are the characters not ours.
Audience - Joyful, Proud, Cheerful, Ecstatic, Relieved - Auggie is finally included and has friends.
Director - It shows how Auggie is finally fitting in, shows there important of friendship or kindness.
Other Technics - Lighting - use of shadow - silhouette outlining the boys, feels like they are all in it together.

Wonder quotes

Workshop 1
Kindness : Respecting others, Look after each other, Speak nicely, Include others. "When given the choice between being right and being kind, choose kind" - Summer
Example 1- When Summer sits with august instead of her friends . This shows the theme of kindness because Summer left the kids who were saying mean things to go and sit with August who looked lonely. Kindness is important to the story overall because without it Auggie will not build confidence, make friends and feel accepted.
Example 2- Auggie shows kindness when he shares his test answers with Jack. This shows it links to the theme because Auggie sees someone in need and needing help, Jack isn't even his friend yet, but helps him anyway. This is important because it is the first step to enabling Auggie to make friends being kind starts this friendship that will be important in the film.
Importance of family & friends : Through these relationships Auggie and others learn the values of trust and self confidence. They are less alone.
Example 1- The scene where Miranda talks about spending Christmas with the Pullmans.
- links to theme - Miranda is happy and included by the Pullmans.
- She is ignored/forgotten at home.
- She realizes that she missed having Friends/Family.
- Important because makes Miranda recognize what she lost/misses and she makes an effort to reconnect with Via and the Pullmans.
Example 2: The boys come to rescue Jack and Auggie.
- Auggie is included, has friends and is feeling trust & self confident.
- Ultimate example of acceptance & friendship, his classmates had his back without him asking first time they treat him as an equal.
Being kind vs being popular : Doing the right thing even when
your friends don't, others pressure you.
Example 1: Julian. Picks on Auggie in front of others, Auggie is an easy target because he doesn't do anything about it and he just sits there and deals with it , it makes Julian look popular when the others laugh.
- Julian chooses to be popular at the expense of others, chooses
to bully Auggie to seem popular.
- Important because it shows choosing popular has negative outcomes. Julian eventually loses his friends, leaves school and is unhappy. However Jack, who choose kind, has lots of friends, is happy and doesn't get kicked out for bullying.

English - camera angles
Camera angles
This week in English we have been looking at camera angles and today Talia and I went out to experiment what they looked like.What am I learning: I am learning about different camera angles.
How does this show my learning: This shows my work through photos and digitally.
What am I wondering as a result of this learning: I am wanting to know if using some of the angles will get some great shots. It would be great to test this with a professional camera.
Here are the photos we got:
Here are the angles we got :
Close-up, Close-Up, Medium Close-Up, Medium Shot,Medium Long Shot, Long (wide) Shot, Extreme Long-Shot, Low Angle, High Angle, Eye Level, Birds Eye View, Dutch Tilt, Pan, Tilt, Tracking, Point of View, Over the shoulder
