Analysis of “The Rabbits”
The Double Page Spread (DPS) i choose was pg 4
REPERSENTATIONAL MEANINGS
READING PATH:
The reading path on pg 4 is at the bottom of the page “They came by water.”
Once read it leads your eye up across to the huge ship and the text is written as if it is on water.
VECTOR:
The first image i look at is the huge ship and the line drawn around that is that that rabbits are getting of the ship and starting to take over the land. This is showing that the rabbits have arrived and are on the move.
SYMBOL:
The symbol in the DPS 4 is the huge ship which represents Strength and power and that they are here in a large number. It also has a lot of sharp points to show that they are not nice people and are here to hurt others.
MOTIF:
One of the image that is repeated on many of the DPS’ is a flag which has 8 Arrows placed in a star shape. I am not sure what it represents but i think it is a replica of the English flag but with arrows instead to show hurt and destruction.
