The grade eights have been working hard on learning about how to use language to persuade people to act in a certain way. They have made great posters and written emotional blurbs for their documentary films. You can read more about each film on the student blogs. You can find a link to each blog in the sidebar to the right. Find grade 8 and leave them a comment about their process.
But for now tell us! Which film would you want to watch and why? Which poster and blurb really grabbed your attention?
Wow amazing work everyone! You've really put a lot of thought into selecting evocative thought provoking images. Well done!
ReplyDeleteI liked the 1st and the 8th design coz It's very attractive, The tree at the 1st design is... like really meaningful, only one tree left standing, and how can we do to prevent that. for the 8th slide, it represent many cars in the streets tht causes air pollution. they used a great picture and liked the fonts. different perspective i guess? And for all dates, maybe should make them smaller and put it at the bottom~ ^^
ReplyDeleteI liked the 4th design from this slide show, because it shows lots of facts about Jakarta that I didn't know before and there are lots of traffic jam in Jakarta right now as well.
ReplyDeleteI like the 4th slide! It looks very interesting. Because in Indonesia there's a lot of traffic which makes people stressed. Usually foreign people are feeling really unusual about Indonesia's traffic in the road. I think Indonesia's traffic should be fixed as quick as possible. So, I would like to watch this movie and find out what's the problem of the traffic, and a solution to make the traffic smooth :D
ReplyDeleteI like the 4th slide of the poster. It really show what happening in Jakarta. In this poster also show a lot of facts about traffic and pollution.
ReplyDeleteThe 8 slide was great. The 8th slide tells many information about air pollution. The poster show me that Jakarta was full with pollution because there were many cars.
ReplyDeleteI prefer to 4th slide from the other slide and I think it is a cool movie! I like it because for me, slide 4th can tell what is going on in Jakarta now. I want to know "Why Jakarta can be jammed?" and I also want to know "What the solution to make Jakarta not jammed?". Maybe I can find out the answer in this movie, so, I really want to watch this movie!
ReplyDeleteThe film I would like to watch is Trash Mountain because I just like to see what people throw away and what they would do with it. The poster that caught my eye was Corpse Phone because I am highly fascinated by technology and electrical stuff.
ReplyDeleteThe film I would like to see is Corpse phone. The reason I would want to see this film is because I have a phone and it might pertain to me. The blurb caught my attention because the phone is all messed up and it looks very interesting.
ReplyDeleteThe film I want to watch is Traffic Jam. I think the Traffic Jams are useless and they should be reduced... I've been caught in enough of them already. If you actually DO make it can you add some comedy?
ReplyDeleteThe film I would like to watch is Renaissances Of Smoke because I have to parents that smoke.
ReplyDeleteThe blurb and poster that seemed to stand out to me is Renaissances Of Smoke because cigarettes in the back ground are put out and the title says freedom of smoke and the blurb talks about secondhand smoke.
Well I liked alot of them but the one that caught my attention was Smoking Is smoking more important than your health?
ReplyDeleteThe film i would like to watch would be "Destroyed Deforestation" because i thought that how the trees have decreased o whole lot over a hundred years. Also the title really grabbed me. As i can see in the passage Indonesia is struggling with deforestation. This passage really grabbed my attention. I liked the the poster and the blurb on "Destroyed Deforestation"
ReplyDeleteI want to watch the movie traffic jam because i want to see why Jakarta is so jammed full of cars and i might figure out why in this movie.
ReplyDeleteThe film I would really want to watch would be the first one 'Destroyed Deforestation' because it looks very interesting it really caught my attention because of the picture and title.Also because everything that it says is very true.It's a very good film that states facts of whats really happening in this world,we have to notice whats going on and do something about it.Also the poster and blurb that really caught my attention was 'Living with air pollution' because its an awesome picture with good detail,and the blurb states interesting facts. You guys did a very good job. :)
ReplyDeleteI really like the 2nd slide show. I like it because it is very informational. I would really want to know about other countries besides U.S.A and Mexico. At first I thought that the picture was Tacos or Burritos.Very catchy.I would like to know more about it.Great job!!!
ReplyDeleteThe film I would like to see is Corpse phone because many people I know has a phone and I would like to see what might happen. The blurb that caught my eye was the Trash Mountain because it was very creative and colorful.
ReplyDeleteI liked the first poster and blurb because it gives you a discription of what would happen if we don't stop deforestation.It tells you what the world would be like and the poster grabs my attention.
ReplyDeleteThe film I would want to watch is the 1st one because I find very interesting the fact that the amount of percentages of trees in Indonesia have reduced incredibly.
ReplyDeleteAlso my favorite poster was the 6th(Trash Mountain), because it grabs my attention the fact that there are so many things people could recycle, but throw away instead.I liked the blurb but I think the poster was better. My favorite blurb was the first one. It was very, very good.
Well traffic jam really caught my eye because there was a guy hanging out of a bus. I most want to watch smoking because it looks interesting.
