2. Then, by paying particular attention to the visual images in the stories and the ways in which these provide clues to the meaning of the stories, write a paragraph explaining how you "read" the stories to get the full meaning of each of the stories. You may find it useful to consider some of these factors: // **Feliz dia de Gracias, Gus!** // ** Paragraph Here ** : I knew what was happening because of how the pictures were drawn and pieced together, how the voices were kids, and how the setting was set up at a barn with a turkey. The coloring of this book was very kid friendly and inviting to kids. The "camera" was focused on the characters and not on other things. The lighting was very bright and clear so that the pictures were visible. The framing was focused on mainly Gus and no the secondary characters.

 * Note: There is no "camera" in these drawings. **

I knew what was happening because of how the setting was at a elephant sanctuary with a news team there so I knew that it was a real life event. The camera sets the tone for this video by focusing on both the elephant and the dog. The subject of matter is on how this elephant and a dog became best friends. The type of shot was mainly on Tara and Bella. The size of the shot was very big so that they could fit Tara and Bella both in the shot.
