SEXXXY Paragraph

Wybie
- other world
- Wybie other
- cant talk
- mother + Coraline going into house, just seen mouse circus
- POV other mother, wants him to smile
- Wybie is unhappy
- warm lightImage result for wybie
- high angle, make the subject vulnerable  (wybie) + the pov dominant + (other mother)
- dark colours but bright because Coraline doesn't know this yer
- facial expression, - sad because his mouth has gone down  & his eyebrows are arched in fear.

In the film Coraline high angle shots were used effectively to establish a characters position of power. This is demonstrated in the scene where Coraline and Wybie return from visiting their neighbours. A high angle shot from the POV of the other mother looking down the stairs towards Wybie makes him look vulnerable. This  makes us understand that the other mother has all the power and might not be as kind as Coraline thinks at this point. The purpose of this is to show a character who is unhappy in the other world and foreshadow the horrific turn of events later in the story. Combined with the use of facial expressions, Wybies mouth is frowning and his eyebrows are arched in fear, the idea of being vulnerable is enhanced. This aspect can 'be comprared to coralines battle with the other mother at the end of the film where we see the true evil nature of the beldam.

Things i could change about my 3D design?

1 thing i could change is by putting my name on my design to show who it belongs too and to represent my Maori culture. I could try to change the color to like Maori green color, and i think it would make my design better if i tried to put my name and my Maori name underneath my English name. That's what i have thinked of changing on my design but im happy with what my design looks like now but if i had to make changes i could put my name and Maori name too. The stuff i do wanna change, i will have to do it another time

The directer effectively uses the costume to create the other mother. At the start she is dressed like a normal mother. She is wearing a white long sleeved turtle neck, black leggings and new shoes. This gradually changes over the course of the film. Her head becomes less round and more pointy, her clothes become darker and expose more skin. By the end of the film her costume is more spider like. Her body is a metal skeleton with lots of sharp angles and her clothes are black rags. The director has done this to show us what the other mother is evil and that her looks were deceiving

Colour and lighting are important in creating the other mother. When we first see her its a warm lighting with shades of yellow and orange this makes the viewer feel happy and safe. By the end of the film scenes with the other mother are dimly lit with a cold light and green and black colour palette. This is because she has turned into her real self, a deman - like spider who is evil and tries to steal childrens souls through their eyes
