After viewing… • Discuss the questions on page 166 with your home group. • Come to a group consensus for each answer • Why do the townspeople welcome Edward so quickly into their lives? • How does the town seem to change after Edward’s arrival? • Kim’s reaction to Edward is played for humor, but in what way is hers the most natural or realistic response? • What hints in this segment indicate that all will not work out well?

  4. Analysis of key scene • Divide up the cinematic techniques at the bottom of 166 amongst your group • You will focus on your one cinematic technique in the key scene about to be shown again • Take notes of interesting or effective examples of your technique • Think about what triggers Edward’s flashback, and how the music, lighting, and tone are different in the flashback • Think about what the cookie may symbolize  • Now discuss with your group your findings. • Make predictions about the story’s outcome as a group

  5. Analytical Statements • Now each of you will create an analytical statement with textual support and reflective commentary about one of the cinematic elements in today’s showing • VOCABULARY NOTEBOOKS! • Commentary—your explanation of the importance or relevance of your example and the way your example supports your analysis • The key word is?

  6. Commentary • Your reflective commentary is going to come after your example of the purpose of the technique • Think of your statement like a mathematical equation • Cinematic Element + Purpose + Evidence + Commentary • Your commentary shows your understanding of the relationship between your example of the element used to the purpose of the element itself • Reflective Commentary = So What ; the “why we care”

She is alone In the castle, and therefore vulnerable to potential dangers.

  9. Exit ticket & homework • Homework: Activity 2.25, Director’s Chair: Visualizing a Scene • Using the dialogue on page 168 from Edward Scissorhands, create a storyboard on pages 169-171. Roughly sketch out what the dialogue scene should look like. • Include your descriptions of the music/sound, dialogue, lighting, and framing. • On a separate sheet of paper, answer the reflection questions at the bottom of page 171. • Entire activity will be turned in for credit finishing Reading Day C!

  10. Tim Burton, in Edward Scissorhands, zooms in in order to show the importance of a certain shot, person, etc. For example, when Burton zooms in on the cookie held in front of the robot, it shows the idea the Inventor had to create Edward. The cookie symbolizes the ideas of love, and the Inventor decides to create Edward so that he has somebody to love.
