I've chosen to look at the Iron Giant more closely, as I think it is a great example of animated performance. I watched it over the summer for my own amusement having not seen it in years, and I was soon reminded of what a brilliant film it is; I'd forgotten how emotional it was too. I knew I just had to write about it in my dissertation.
The scenes I want to talk about in particular, are;
- When Hogarth meets the Giant properly for the first time, and teaches him the name of objects
- Hogarth saying grace at the dinner table
- The witness of a deer being hunted
- The ending
There is a range of different displayed emotions within these scenes, yet they all portray the illusion of thought extremely well. This will be a good opportunity for me to refer back to previous statements and findings within my essay, to emphasise the importance of your character having thought processes and intention behind the movements they make. I also think these scenes have a great display of acting, especially the one where Hogarth is trying to say grace and alert the hand to get out of the kitchen simultaneously.
