Representation Task

Task 1:
Look at a range of films and try to identify the ways in which people are represented.
Create a Google Presentation to evidence your findings. Find 5 and use images to illustrate.
Headings could include - geek, scientist, every man, fall guy, femme fatale, girl next door, hag, hero, jock, killbot, reluctant hero etc etc
List their character atributes within the slides.

Extension task 1 - gather names of existing fim characters that fit with the headings. e.g. Reluctant hero - Bilbo Baggins

Extension task 2 - list the characteristics that are usually associated with the characters in question.


When you have pasted the embed code into the HTML side of the post, update the he numbers to read 600 and 450. This will resize the drawing to be the same size as the one above.
