Hades and Persephone

This term in inquiry we covered myths and legends. We looked at different countries and how different cultures have different myths that are similar but have there own twists. We learnt that myths are completely made up to explain something illogical and a legend is just a deeply exaggerated story.

Persephone is the goddess of vegetation, and grain. One day Persephone was picking Flowers. 

Hades appeared and stole her to the underworld. There he fed her 6 pomegranate seeds. But the seeds were special as they were grown in the underworld, thus binding Persephone to the underworld.

Meanwhile, Demeter went looking for her, and it came to her attention that Hades probably had something to do with it.

She took off, and arrived in the underworld. She confronted Hades telling him that Persephone did not belong in the Underworld and demanded Persephone returned to Earth with her. But Hades had already thought about that and told Demeter it was too late as Persephone had been bound to the Underworld.

As stated before Persephone is the goddess of vegetation, and without her presence of Earth. Plant-life started to decrease and everything started to die. Hades and Demeter came to an agreement that Persephone would spend 6 months in the underworld for the 6 pomegranate seeds she ate and she’d the remainder 6 months on Earth. 

Thenceforward for 6 months a year the vegetation would thrive and for the 6 months it would die, preparing for new growth. Over time this became known as the 4 seasons of the year. 

Over time Persephone grew to love Hades who treated her with compassion and loved her as his Queen. She stayed young and beautiful as things don’t age in the underworld. The god and goddess ended up getting married and lived happily ever after.

Cave Art

Walt: Tell a story that you wrote through an animation using hyperstudio.

Once not long ago there lived a tribe. They ate berries and fish this tribe like to preserve there animas. But over time it got harder to find berries and their supplies didn’t last long. When the last of the berries were finished the tribe went and hunted for more berries. They came across a berry patch but it was guarded by 2 fierce crocodile. The tribe charged at animals while some of them got some berries they decided to spare the animals life because they were happy to have more berries. They returned to their cave and had a celebration the End!

Task Description: Here is my task description I worked pretty hard on this movie it may not look like it but yeah I did work hard on it. I wrote the voice over using the story the pictures show and below the presentation I have the script I used for the voice over because the voice over wasn't very clear. I drew the pictures with hyperstudio and put it into Imovie to make it and actual movie. Along the way I did have to keep in mind that this is a cave art and they didn't have paint brushes and things like that back then and I tried to make the picture look like I make them using my figure ENJOY!

My Term 2 Animation

Respecting Anmation

Walt: learning to animate and move charters on hyperstudio

Task Description: This term we are making animations about how we should respect our friend and the enviroment we live in. We are using hyperstudio to do so. This is a great thing to learn and honestly I think that I have really improved in drawing this year it is SOO much better than last year but maybe because I was younger then. What do you think?
