OK so heres the situation
my trials are 2morro and i only decided today that one of my related texts suck. So i'm gonna do Peter Pan by J. M. Barrie. BUT: Does is it a physical jouney? i was just going to talk about the actually learning to fly instead of the entire text. You know "the jouny is more important than the arrival" and all that cliche the feed us??
i just need reassurence here people?!?!

Well, unfortunately I can't give you any. It does not look good. Not to mention the fact that from the date you posted, you have already done your trial. But oh well, screw that. Good Luck With Your Trial!

thanks

Heart of Darkness is a great text, short but dense. Read stuff about it as well as just read it. Physical journey promotes real change in character, lots of techniques towrite about.

the movie "charlotte grey" directed by gillian armstrong is a great one for physical journeys... and even inner journeys. great movie and has lots of fantastic techniques...

Opinions please!
What do you think about these songs for a related text for journey?
Greenday - Time of Your Life
Rascal Flats - Life Is A Highway
John Denver - Leaving on a Jet Plane
I'm planning on just using one of course but are they okay for the whole journey part?

Researching for a second sup text and I was considering 'Where the Wild Things Are' by Maurice Sendak. I have a vague idea but I'm not 100% sure that it could be used for a Physical journey....any thoughts? Anyone used it? or know someone who has?

i know some people in my grade who chose this but they used it for imaginative .. mainly because the characters are 'pure fantasy'?

however it can still definitely be used for physical (maybe even inner) just focus on the visual techniques (size of the images, positioning, vector lines and so forth)

i did that! it was for imaginative though hmm so i don't think i could be much help. however, are you sure? (don't worry there's no sugar :wave:) because i seriously can only see the imaginative aspects of the film ..
