Title: Tomorrow,%20When%20the%20War%20began.


1
Tomorrow, When the War began.
  • John Marsden.

2
  • Despite what these people say about a clean
    invasion,
  • I think all wars are
  • filthy
    and
  • foul and
  • rotten.239

3
  • I was lost somewhere in the rapids of my
    feelings. If life is a struggle against emotion,
    then I was loosing. It was almost scary. p.g.
    237 -238

4
  • Humans do such terrible things to each other,
    that sometimes my brain tells me they must be
    evil.. p. 284

5
.But my heart still isn't convinced. I just hope
we can survive.

  • I felt guilty even thinking about love while our
    world was in such chaosbut my heart was making
    its own rules and refusing to be controlled by
    conscienceI let it run wild, thinking of all the
    fascinating possibilities. p178

  • Explanation of Visual Features
  • Power Point 1 Theme War
  • I dissected the elements of war and chose to
    represent different aspects associated with war
    such as
  • Injury and separation
  • Devastation, bombs
  • Death
  • War torn countries, hunger
  • Emotions felt amongst a war loneliness,
    depression, sadness, and loss of identity and
    feelings of purpose, feeling worthless and
    surrounded.
  • Background I used a picture,
    which incorporated colours, associated with filth
    and dirt - it is slightly blurred to represent
    destruction and confusion.
  • Power Point 2 Theme Confusion of Emotions
    our ability to survive
  • In war, we are so emotionally involved that it is
    easy to get confused. I used pictures of
  • - a clowns face distorted by emotion, with a
    question mark over his eyes to show that being
    overwhelmed by emotion results in confusion.
    Another face with mixed colours and a face hidden
    to represent the same.

  • Power Point 3 4 Evil of Humanity, Yet our
    inability to see through the veil of our hearts.
  • - I used pictures that represented the awful
    things we do to each other
  • (rejecting one another, yelling abusing each
    other, make people feel upset, hate kill each
    other, blame one another), I used a harsh gloomy
    background to emphasis the nature of the feelings
    that we can create and inflict upon each other
  • - On the slide with the other half of the quote,
    I used pictures that shows things humans do to
    each other that involve the heart such as touch,
    love, comforting each other, working together,
    friendship, and the miracle of birth. I also
    used a background which says Heart Over mind,
    because sometimes as harsh as reality can be, our
    heart can still choose to be biased by our
    feelings and see things differently than the
    reality our brain sees.
  • Power Point 5 Theme Love Relationships
  • - For this quote I used a background of chaos
    and destruction, to represent our physical
    surroundings (like war in the novel.)
  • - I created a photo in which I merged a photo of
    fire and war, with a picture of two people in
    love. I used this photo in particular to show
    that despite what the world can bring amongst all
    its death, war, fighting and chaos we still find
    time for love and intimacy, that love comes just
    as naturally to our human nature as does
    fighting.
