dissection





Pig heart dissection





yesterday in biology we did a pig heart disection and learned about the purposes and reasons of all the veins and how each part works. 
atriums-entry ways where blood enters each side of the heart from the veins
arteries-keeps blood away from the heart
veins-take blood back to the heart
ventricles-v shaped cavities which pushes the blood into arteries to take away from the heart
muscled walls-strong to help squeeze and push the blood around the body
septum-seperates left and right side of the heart
heart strings-strong fibres that hold the valves in place
valves-one way gates. let blood only move in one direction.

refelection: 
it was yuck but funny to play with and when ibrahim cried about it, but i geuss it was fine and good to learn about.

workshop 2: linking themes of the angles,movement and shots.

brainstorm:
whats happening in this shot?
-"other wybie" standing on the stairs outside the house. other mother asks him to smile from doorway, instead he frowns.
"other wybie" making self smaller-less of a target-head down,shoulders hunched. looks weak and vulnerable.

angles/shots
pov-other mother,makes her seem stronger,bigger, more dominant.
high angle-makes wybie look over powered, weak and vulnerable
wiewer-makes viewer feel sorry for/scared for "other whybie"

why did the director do this?
-foreshadowing-hinting at what is to come.
-hinting that maybe the "other mother" isnt so wonderful
-other techniques spotlight on whybie-like hes on the spot/under focus- dark around creates creepy atmosphere 

in the scene with the "other mother" and the "other whybie" we see high angle shots used to show the theme 'looks can be deicieving'. we see this when the "other mother" asks the "other whybie" to smile but he hunches over and frowns instead. this makes the audience feel sorry for the "other whybie" because he looks scared. the use of a high angle shot from the perspective of the "other mother" adds to this feeling as it makes the "other whybie" look weak and vulnerable. the director did this to foreshadow the change of the "other mother" from creepy to more creepy. coinciding with this is the use of lighting. a spotlight is on the "other whybie" emphasising that he is under the focus of the "other mother". this reminds of earlier in the film where a low angle was used to make whybie seem big and scary but really he was just ordinary.  this links the scene because it also shows a momemt when the look of a character was decieving.

workshop 1

theme & ideas- continious idea/subject that thinks throughout the text.

"looks can be deceiving"
-dont judge a book by its cover
-dont judge by the apparence

 example  1:
-when coraline first meets wybie- when we first meet him he seems scary(mask,motorbikes,use of high angle,loud music) but in reality hes just a weird neighbour.

-shows theme because like other characters our first impressions based on apparence,tone,visual techniques arent always correct.

-important because helps audience understand with Coraline that just because something looks good doesnt mean it is, she could choose the real world over the other world.


example 2:
charater of the 'other mother'- because she seems normal/friendly at the start but by the end of becomes a soul devourering spider demon.
-shows theme because 'Other mother" isnt what she appears tobe at the start so we should judge by first impressions.
-important because coraline realises that having something that looks perfect isnt always a good thing.

statement
-in coraline, the theme 'looks can be deceiving' is used effectively to engage the audience.
 
evidence
-for instance, the character of the character 'Other mother' shows us that looks can be deceiving because she starts off as a kind mother figure but gradually changes into a soul devouring demon.

explanation
-this makes us understand that we shouldnt judge a character based on first impressions as they can often be wrong.

xplanations
-this is done to help coraline decide between the real world and the other world. is the 'Other mother' was really perfect coraline wouldnt choose to go home.

xplanation(another technipue(shots/angles,music,setting,lighting/colour)
-combines with this is the use of colour and lighting. the 'Othe rmother' first appears in a vibrently bright room that makes us feel warm and safe. however,by the end it has become dark and green which makes the veiwer feel scared and shows that her first look was deceiving.

your link-this can be juxtaposed of the character of wybie who we think at first is evil but is actually kind prooving looks can be decieving.

1/2 cup chelsea soft brown sugar
1 egg
1 tsp vanilla essence
1 1/2 cups of flour
pinch of salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/2 cups chocolate chip

method:
melt butter, and add both sugars and cream these together. beat in the eggs and vanilla then mix in dry ingrediants. roll into medium sized calls, making sure the mixture is not too wet! put on a well greased baking tray. they shouldnt spread to much so flatten slightly. bake at 180degrees for 8-10 minutes.

you can easily half this recipe. or roll half into a log, wrap in cling film and freeze. but into 15 pieces while still frozen and bake.
