For project 4, I took three different movies: Stand By Me, Fried Green Tomatoes, and The Breakfast Club, and of these three movies I picked a character from each. I picked Chris Chambers from Stand By Me, Idgie from Fried Green Tomatoes, and Claire from The Breakfast Club. For the English portion of the project I researched fashion psychology and how ones physical appearance can change how people treat them or how one can treat others. Based off of this information I gathered, I wrote a journal giving a quick summary of the movie, how that certain character is in the movie, how I changed their physical appearance, and then how the movie's plot may and interactions may change based off of a different appearance,
For the art portion of the project, I took the three characters from the movies and changed their physical appearance using materials that wouldn't be normally seen on someone. I used, yarn, wire, medal mesh, computer keys and other parts, and also some rope. In the journalI explained that by changing the physical appearance of a person can have have an affect of social interactions with others. Using the thinking skill of synthesis for my English piece combining fashion psychology into these three movies, and also using synthesis in my art piece by using pictures and materials that wouldn't normally go with the setting and changing the characters into different people.
