Drama Blog Post

 Today in Hurumanu 2 (Drama) we did some work on Freeze Frames. I have done blog posts about this many time so if you want to learn about freeze frames go onto my older posts. 

The subject we had to do Freeze Frames on was a story called Bullies. It's about 4 boys who bully one student. We had to do 4 Freeze frames on parts of the story. The first Freeze Frame was about the boys waiting at a bus stop. The second Freeze Frame was about the boys planning who they were going to bully at the back of the bus. The third Freeze Frame was about the boys bullying the short kid with glasses. The fourth and final Freeze Frame was about the boys denying the accusations of the bullying. 

Here is the first Freeze Frame.

The techniques used in this Freeze Frame are Levels, (People at different Heights)

Expressions, (What peoples face looks like) and Gestures. (What position people are in)

Eg. David is on the Ground, in a ball, staring off into space.

This is the second Freeze Frame.

 

 The same techniques are used in this Freeze Frame too. Dylan is sitting on his knee deep in thought.

This is the third Freeze Frame 

Reuben is standing up pointing at David and laughing.

Today we watched a video about being the Victim in a Bullying Scenario. It was made by a 12-year-old boy who was getting bullied in the video. Here is the link to the video.

We had to answer some questions about the video and imagine what our character would look like. Who am I? Here you must think of the 3 aspects of your character.

1. physically -age, gender, appearance. 12 years old, Boy, Brown hair, Brown eyes, tan skin.

2. Social - family, friends, job/role.   A younger sister, Mum, no dad. No friends. Does the Paper Run every Tuesday, Thursday, and Sunday.

3. Psychological - emotion, thoughts. When he gets bullied he asks himself "What did I do to deserve this?"
