In our homeroom we created a
fictional country with its own government and laws. In Visual
Arts our job was to create a piece of propaganda for this fictional country. We had to think carefully about the purpose
of our propaganda and choose powerful objects and images to create emotional
connections. Before we started to create
our propaganda we viewed lots of examples of propaganda from past and present
cultures, for example communist propaganda from the Soviet Union and Indonesian
propaganda about the ‘dua anak cukup’ family planning programme.
Learning outcomes:

I can describe emotional connections using more
sophisticated language.

I can use
the elements and principles of art and design in appropriate ways.
|
I can describe how people use
artwork as a response to a situation and investigate the purposes of objects
and images.
|
I can study existing
images of a topic to be represented to identify, select and manipulate visual
elements of my own choice.
|
I can produce a 2-D work of art that
communicates ideas for specific purposes & to
specific audiences, representing & refining a theme through different
media & techniques.
