Write a character analysis: one character in two mediums
select a short story that you have read in this course. then, select a movie/tv show , a another artistic medium—that represents the same subject/theme or an important similar scene in the story. write a 4-5 paragraph essay, times new roman, 12 point font, comparing and contrasting paragraph analysis of the characters. in what ways are the two similar? in what ways are they different? don’t forget to analyze the character
use these guidelines for planning and writing:
• identify the character’s name, the title of the work, and the author.
• organize your analysis around a thesis that you state in the introductory paragraph.
• your thesis should involve one or more-character traits or motivations and how they contribute to the development of that character, other characters, plot, or theme.
• develop the thesis in the body of the analysis, supporting your ideas with evidence from the fiction text
• how does the medium affect your impression of the story? are the impressions each creates different?
• focus on how the two versions of the idea convey an important meaning of the story.
• choose one organizational pattern—either block structure or point-by-point structure—and stick to it.
• you may want to create a venn diagram or a compare and contrast chart to you organize the information. don’t turn in a venn diagram for the assignment!
• make sure your essay has an introduction, supporting paragraphs, and a concluding paragraph.
