Dear Rappers,
This week our rap focuses on film techniques used in Worst Best Friends. I'm sure that you will be interested in the scenes behind the scenes! Have fun discussing techniques and codes film makers use. I look forward to talking to you next week about it.
Stream
of consciousness
At the
beginning and end of each episode Thesaurus speaks to us (the viewer) in first
person – via a stream of consciousness.
Why is this technique used by the script
writer (draw attention to Thesaurus’ name – what is a thesaurus?)
What are some of topics Thesaurus talks
about at these times?
Rap wrap up 1:
Identify
other examples of the film techniques from Rap sheet 1, and
discuss how media codes and conventions help us to understand the story (narrative)
and characters in Worst best
friends.
Rap wrap up 2:
At the end of episode 5 Thesaurus talks
about friends. ‘Eddie was never going to make friends with anyone…I
don’t know what makes people friends…sometimes you can be friends
without liking each other’
Discuss how
your class feels about Thesaurus’s ideas on friendship.
Post your
responses to the rap.
