Supp Texts - Imaginative (3 Viewers)

[kvella]

hey jus thought id add butterfly effect to the list of movies to possibly use for related texts for imaginative journey as well as the kids book where the wild things are

 

[xlil-miss-muffx]

hey ppl...

does anyone know of any texts that i can relate to On Giants Shoulders by Melvynn Bragg? I've got to do a deconstruction of 5 texts for a portfolio and i need at least one text that i can relate to On Giants Shoulders and a text from the bos stimulus booklet.

hmmmm...
For a 'sound' text you could do the video clip, "The Sweet Escape" by Gwen Stefani. It appears very easy to do for imaginative journey, but its probably too mainstream and, therefore, not appropriate.


Cheers guys

Thanks for the list

This is a quick summary for ppl who haven't been bothered reading the last 18 pages

1. Don't use the Martin Luther King speech cuz it's alreadi a prescribed text for (either powerplay or speeches for truth, not sure)

2. There hasn't been much analysis of texts xcept for a little on alice in wonderland ..the comments were mostly recomendations for texts.

3. It is stressed that you have a good analysis on children books so as to not sound childish , then you'll b fine.

that'a all i memba,
Tip: try to avoid the most COMMON one's or have a SUPER good analysis, the markers will b bored of reading the same one's

btw does anyone know if we can use short video's from www.atomfilms.com ?

Another good text 4 Imag journeys:
- "Mind's eye" novel by Paul Fleischman.

THANKS for the text guys! bye

from what i've heard, you can use texts from all around you (including a fellow student's speech). Now you and I both know that with the former example how hard it is to convince your marker that you're not making it up on the spot! But yeh, it has to have some credibility. goodluck

Do you think that I could use 'Monty Python's Life of Brain' as a supp. text for Imaginative Journey? Its a controversial biblical satire - I'd like to use it, good idea? bad? Help, please lol.

How about episodes of a TV series? i used an episode of scrubs entitled "my screw-up" for an earler assessment task and the teacher said she "wasn't sure" about it- even though i could provide a background on characters, previous events etc which mattered before in the essay, she didn't think i could do it in a HSC exam.

It's almost perfect though. what do we think?

Any type of help would be appreciated, cheers.

I don't no if anyones pointed this out...if they have ignore my post.. but be careful with the MLK speech.. i used it in my Imag. essay and my teacher said to absolutely forget using it in the HSC as it wouldnt be marked as it is a Core Text in a diff Module and looked down upon by a marker...just giving the heads up.. great list btw..

hey afew people have written lists of movies and have included Harry potter one which as my teacher informed me is not an imaginative journey, as it is written as fact as if the wizarding world is real, and so there really is not a strong imaginative journye at all, you could write how it takes you on one but it would be a poor response

 

[neevatilley]

i did the killers: mr brightside coz it shows the potential of the imaginative journey to overwhelm logic and incite hysteria...

and the short story the telltale heart is a good one as well.

 

[renzieroo]

Really basic movies:
Peter Pan,
Finding Neverland,
Alice in Wonderland and
Pans Labrynth.

 

[seano77]

Has anyone seen Finding Forrester? If so, would that be considered as an imaginative journey?

Hey guys,
Sorry It's my first time use this site, and i'm most likely posting this in the wrong forum.

I know your over doing journeys , but im wondering if I can get help on this quote.

Imagination is about intelligence having fun.

I need to write a speech about it, but I don't need to explain it. Just interprt it and bring in personal experience etc.

Help will be appreciated! thanks.

Goodluck for the rest of your exams

Do you guys think it would be better to pick a text which is relatively well known so there would be more resources out there or should I pick an unique text so it'll stand out to the markers but there will be no help out there? Thanks for the help
