OBJECTIVE

- Discuss and collect visual representations of imagery that communicates the concept of Democracy and its antithesis.
- Collaboratively develop a common approach toward applying graphics to visually communicate nuanced perspectives about the origins, and exercise of democracy in American society.
- Conjecture upon and debate our own relationships to the democratic processes; evaluate the effectiveness of democracy as a system of governance; contemplate the shape and substance of democracy in our national consciousness versus how the world views our perception and application of it.

Youth Collective Film Festival: DEMOCRACY Project

TASK 1 - Illustrative

Part 1A.

On the Jamboard, provide responses to the writing and research prompts on each page.

*Your name should appear on a sticky note, as well as your labeled contributions to the discussion.

Part 1B.

Think about and compose an illustration with color that communicates the duality of Democracy in America, and the actions of groups to reduce the effectiveness and prevent others from fully exercising their rights to contribute to the functioning of our democratic republic.  Show three specific examples through visual representations, including text, photos, and/or digital paintings.

*Your Krita file must be submitted via Schoology for credit.


TASK 2 - Animated Loop

Part 2A. Loop Planning

- Develop a storyboard and animatic to visualize a sequence of images that relate to one or more ideas of democracy that can be produced as an animation of approximately 4-10 seconds

*Can be submitted as traditional paper illustrations, or digitally.

Part 2B. Loop Animation

- Produce final animation files that have color, movement, and visual impact based upon the idea of showing what democracy means, how it operates, what it looks like to operate contrary to the democratic process, and why democracy is a value to uphold.

- Animation clips will be compiled into an Animation Jam and set to accompanying music by Mr. Webb.


TASK 3 - The Story of Democracy, to me... 

Students will be assigned production roles by Mr. Webb, with required tasks, workflows to produce the work, and deadlines.

Please follow your individual assignments and complete tasks on time.
