  2. Sub-heading Definition: A technique is the way in which a composer constructs meaning. In Distinctively Visual, you may only use visual techniques. This means techniques that encourage or allow you to visualiseor see what is going on.

  3. This means you can not use techniques that are based in sound or other language devices.

  4. Sub-heading Using techniques: Techniques you can use… 1. Literary… Descriptive language, imagery, metaphors, similes, symbolism, personification, motifs 2. Visual… Stage directions, body language, images (photos etc), lighting Techniques you canuse with care… 1. Literary … Allusion, contrast, juxtaposition, parody, repetition

  5. Techniques you can not use… 1. Literary … Alliteration, assonance, sarcasm, cliché, onomatopoeia, rhyme, music, emotive language, direct speech, etc

  6. Sub-heading How to use unusable techniques Talk about their relationship with visual techniques. Therefore the relationshipand interaction becomes the technique.

  7. Sub-heading Visible and Invisible Is the relationship between what you see and what you hear about, and know is around but you never see. It is deliberately hidden. The Shoe-horn Sonata is a play with only two settings and two characters.Even though there are other important places (the POW camps, the Daid Jones Food Hall, Chatswood) AND other important and present people (Rick, other POWs being interviewed)

  8. WHY? To make meaning

  9. Visible and invisible continued People and places which are visible and prioritised by the composer. All the focus is on them. They are important. What other people, places and objects are seen and what other people, places and objects are unseen?

  10. Sub-heading Visual and Written Visual elements are those things that you see… Body language, lighting, facial expressions (indicated by stage directions) and images (pictures put up on the screen) But being able to see things is does not tell you the whole story. To make sense of what you are seeing, you need to recognise how important the things that you read/ hear are (music, quotes etc) and how they add to your knowledge of what you see.

  11. What aural elements are there in the text? What visual elements do they reinforce your understanding of?

  12. Sub-heading In Summary The only way to talk about non visual elements in DistinctivelyVisual is by talking about how they reinforce or addmeaning to the visual elements.
