Elaborations
- • Elaboration taking a series of photographs that show themselves and their friends as comic superheroes and villains through setting, costume and body language, and using questions based on Viewpoints relating to forms and elements; for example, “What images will I use and in what order?”
- • Elaboration creating a soundscape to accompany a moving image that includes Foley sounds and recorded sounds on a variety of devices to explore volume, layering and the use of voice to create a sense of environment
- • Elaboration using learning from explorations of media arts works that communicate First Nations Australians’ connection to and responsibility for Country/Place to devise media arts works that communicate their own connection to and responsibility for place; for example, creating a short film that communicates their feelings about a “favourite” place or shows how they care for a place in their community
- • Elaboration experimenting with the camera and framing the subject, using shot types, angles and lighting, and experimenting to apply text to still or moving images, such as credits in a title sequence
- • Elaboration filming a short sequence that focuses on conflict by selecting camera angles, lighting and/or costume to convey meaning without dialogue
- • Elaboration collaborating with others to make a small publication to explore ideas that are significant in their lives; for example, a zine or new website, using collaged images and texts and drawings
