Representing+Me+PA

Background Information

 * 1) == Think about the 2 photos of Arnold Schwarzenegger (Image Analysis - Arnold). Each image was created to represent a specific image about him at that time. In one, he represents an international body-builder. In the other, he represents a candidate for the position of the Governor of California. We have talked about the camera angles, lighting, colors, clothing, etc. that help him with the varying representations of himself. ==
 * 2) == Famous people use makeup and styling, plus camera angles, lighting etc. to represent themselves as famous actors and actresses. News people, the paparazzi, enjoy catching famous people in less flattering photos. View Stars without makeup: The real face of fame. The famous are often angry with the paparazzi because they do not want the world to see the less flattering photos. Their beauty represents who they are, so the less flattering photos harm their reputations. ==
 * 3) == Think about how you want to be represented. What image best represents you. What do you want to wear? What pose will you hold? Will you want to be doing something? ==

Assignment

 * 1) == Think about your class photo from last year. Does it represent you as you want people to see you? Would there have been a better photo of you from sometime last year that would have represented you better, or was there another photo in the yearbook that represented you better? ==
 * 2) == Create a page named Representing Me initials ==
 * 3) == Copy the section A, B and C below, and paste it on your Remembering Me initials page. Complete both Part A and Part B. ==

Section A: Complete the table comparing your school/class photo from last year with another photo from last year.

 * || == School or class photo from last year ... == || == Another photo from last year ... == ||
 * == Brief description of how you appear in the photo. ... == || ==I looked younger than i actually look and I look shiny== || ==I looked my age and my hair was curly== ||
 * == What do you like/dislike about the image? ... == || ==I don't like anything about it== || ==I liked my hair and my outfit and my face was not shiny so that is good== ||
 * == How do you think other people read the image? ... == || ==Many people felt differently about the image. Adults thought the image was nice but most of my friends agreed it was a bad picture== || ==Other people read the image for the most part the same way I did they thought it was a good picture but this time I agree.== ||
 * == Do you think the image is a true representation of you? ... == || ==No I think in real life I look a lot older than the way I appear in this picture. I personally do not think this picture represents me at all.== || ==At the time that the picture was taken this image represented me very well but now it probably does not because i was grown up a little more.== ||

== Section C: The 6th grade students' first Scratch programs were called About Me. Each had to design and code a program that told me three things about them. They are just beginning to use the MIT Scratch programming language so they were limited in their use of symbols to represent themselves in the program.. The following are a few of the examples: Carrier About Me, Schmitt About Me, Burks About Me, Stewart All About Me. Other examples are at the ICSkids About Me gallery. (Note: These require the correct version of Flash to view, so they do not work on all computers.) ==
