Business

For business we were give a task to make banknotes. We had to create 2 note's but had to make a front and back. Both sides had to contain 5 of 8 characteristics of good currency the characteristics are:


-         Generally accepted
-         Durable
-         Divisible
-         Stable/ consistent
-         Transportable
-         Scarce
-         Easily Recognizable
-         Difficult to counterfeit
Here are my banknotes:



When we finished our banknotes we had to state the features of our banknotes:



On my banknotes I have put the " This note is tender for 20/100 dollars". I put that there so it is difficult to counterfeit. I also put the number and letters in a line, and there is a clear oval so it is more difficult to counterfeit. I put the amount the note is worth twice on each side. I put the school logo on the note so everyone knows where you can use it. There is a picture of the principle because he is the one who runs the school.

-Dull colours - sad, lonely, sympathetic, calm, quiet.
- Natural light - is nighttime
Effect on the viewer - sympathitic, sad, sorry, lonely, depressed, miserable, downhearted, forlorn.
Directors Purpose -  emphasizes the sadness of the moment and the importance of Auggies relationship with his family.

In the scene where Auggie cries to his mother about being bullied, colour and lighting is used to create an atmosphere of sympathy. We see this through the use of warm and dull colours in the shot. These makes the space feel safe and comfortable for Auggie to express his emotions. This makes us understand how he is feeling, miserble, oppressed, and depressed because he looks different from his pears. He asks his mum, " Will it always matter" which is a feeling most in the audience can relate too. This was done to show the theme, the importance of friends and family, because Auggie learns resilience by talking issues through with his mum. Combined  with this is the use of close up shots to show the emotions and tears on Auggies face. This reminds the viewer of the moment later in the story where Auggie is upset because his sister Via doesn't want him to go to her play. Just like this scene, Auggie runs to his rooom upset and a momber of his family comes to reassure him.
