| Learning intention(s) | Students will be able to:
|
a) As well as communicating thematic meanings from the poem or e-book you have chosen, it is also important that your visual exposition has connections with the literal or direct meanings from the source text. You may decide some of the images in your text will be of objects, characters or settings from the source text. Your final visual exposition should communicate a range of meanings from the text - literal, inferred and thematic..
Three level guides are a good way to ensure your visual exposition communicates a wide range of meanings from the text.
Construct a three-level guide for the poem or e-book you are using for your source text. For level 3, write down your thematic focus statement from task 1. You may wish to further refining it at this stage too.
Level 1 - reading on the lines statements:
-
-
-
-
-
-
Level 2 - reading between the lines statements:
-
-
-
-
-
-
Level 3 - reading beyond the lines statement (thematic focus statement from task 2):
-
b) You should now consider which meanings from level 1 and 2 are the most relevant to your level 3 / thematic focus statement. Decide on 5 or more level 1, and 5 or more level 2 meanings that you will aim to include in your visual exposition and save a copy and complete the first task in the “ planning a visual text template (Word 42KB) .”
c) After completing the first task, consider which dominant images you could use to best communicate your ideas. These should be a mix of ideas at all three levels. Complete step 2 in the “planning a visual text template.” Later you will be developing the full plan of everything else that will be in each panel.
