Photography - Art


 Subject matter - 

What is the subject matter? Separating parts 

There are figures and then we have to background.


How are these put together?


Some things might be a similar colour or the topic will just combine with each other.

Form - 

How are parts grouped and overlapped? What is the focal point of the composition? 

One of the soldiers could be a focal point.


Do the colours create a mood or create  relationships between parts? 

There are a lot of different colours but some of the soldiers just pop out more.

Content / Meanings - 

Define the main subject? What does it mean 

The soldiers are at “war”


Does your combination of elements add up to new meaning? 

There’s not much of a meaning to it, the photo was just for fun.

Science Hur2

 In science we made hands, we made them with paper, straws and string. We had to try and represent how hands work with the tendons, joints and ligament's.

The ligaments are what attaches the bones together. It usually serves to hold together and keep them stable. 

Tendons is a fibrous connective connective tissue which attaches the muscles to the bone. Tendons might also attach muscles to structures such as the eyeball. A tendon serves to move the bone and or structure. 

Joints are the cartilage surfaces the connect bones to each other. This cartilage allows our bones to glide smoothly against one another. It allows us painless movement and in each finger there are four joints. So 20 total in each hand.

Algebra in Science

 In Math we had to make a Presentation about velocity. It is basically a mix of Math and Science. 

In Math for this trimester we have been learning a whole lot of different stuff. We learnt a lot about Geometry and Algebra. We would do work on mathletics, play games and a lot more. Lately we have been working on a presentation that uses math and science. We had to use Time, Distance and Speed. 

These are our Results


During this Hurumanu (Making waves Hurumanu) It was pretty fun, I feel that I learned more during this Hurumanu and the way Mr Carter taught us was actually really fun. During this Hurumanu I found everything really fun to learn, we would learn stuff through games, videos and things that just made math fun.

Acting Style - Drama

Generally this means "Over the Top" in every way. Here are some techniques which help create this affect. 

- Slower, cleaver delivery of lines with huge projection. Remember Victorian Theatres were huge and there were no microphones. 

- Play everything to the audience, even if you are supposed to be talking to another character on stage! Indictae whom you are talking to by looking sideways at them and holding your hand out towards. 

  • Address the audience directly whenever the script will allow you to do so. 

  • • 

  • The Pose: Invent poses of shock, horror, love, evil, intent, cruelty, desire, dilemma, forgiveness, begging forgiveness etc. A pose should last at least three seconds and should be clearly visible from fifty metres. 

  • The working yourself up to the pose: lasts two to three seconds --let's see you getting there! 

  • • 

  • The Gasp - very loud expressing a range of emotions. Often accompanied by a pose. 

  • The Swoon - often preceded by lines such as "Alas! I can hardly bear it." The swoon should be graceful and provision should be made for someone to catch you._ 

  • The long walk downstage/upstage/across stage when hatching a plan or in a dilemma. 

  • The Pacing- to and fro across the stage when hatching a plan or in a dilemma. Move before you speak so that the audience can track who is speaking. 

  • The Tableau (freeze frame)- the still picture made up of a number of characters to freeze the moment, eg: The Happy Ending/ The Secret Lovers. The tableaux should be very explicit. 

  • The Sigh/The Groan/The Tubercular Cough 

  • First Entrances are important - may even bow, this is related to the cult of “The Actor” – the Star system.
