Speech balloon

this decision during an action-to-action panel transition which is a transition “featuring a single subject in distinct action-to-action progression” (McCloud 70). This panel is split with an abnormal looking gutter. This gutter is jagged unlike the straight frames in most of the other panels in Vietnamerica, and this unorthodox frame shows how difficult this decision was for Huu Nghiep. However, he is adamant about his decision, for he says “I said NO” in the last panel of the page (Tran 192). The use of all capital letters in the word “NO” strengthens the confidence in his decision (Tran 192). Also, by using closure, the reader is able to perceive that this statement interrupts the army man’s sentence because the placement of Huu Nghiep’s speech bubble intrudes the army man’s. This further validates Huu Nghiep’s persistence to protect his family, and it acts as one of the examples that led to a closer bond between Huu Traan and his father. Huu Traan illustrates this stronger connection with his past on page 205 when Gia-Bao asks about his trip to Vietnam. The page begins with a subject-to-subject panel transition which is a type of transition that “takes us from…

The most effective way to teach the students to take tolerance to the differences between them and people with disabilities is to give them evidence of this happening. An ideal demonstration of this is in the film ‘The Black Balloon’. This film is from the perspective of Thomas Mollison. Thomas is the younger brother of Charlie, a 17 year old boy who was born with autism. The film perfectly represents the mistreatment of those with disabilities and the difficulties and challenges faced to anyone…

From the start of Charles D’Ambrosio’s “The Point”, a surreal and symbolic tone is set forth as the protagonist Kurt awakens from a nightmare in the middle of the night. In this dream, Kurt attends a circus with his father, and they are both holding helium balloons. However, while Kurt’s balloon is tied around his finger, his father “ties his around a stringbean and lost it.” Although upon first reading this scene does not have context for the reader, as the story unfolds, it becomes clear…

Do balloons actually bring joy to millions? Some people believe that foil balloons should be banned and it is causing a controversy.

a photograph of a water balloon popping. Photography is a way of art because it can capture people, objects, scenes, etc, in a photograph. One photograph can say a lot about something. As for my photo, it does not have a universal message but it says something about how I like to see things. I like to capture objects that someone wouldn 't usually see by just looking with their eyes, like a water balloon popping. You can see it happen but not the form and how it really looks because it happens…

So I wanted to make a game out of them getting washed off because they hate taking showers, so I went and got water balloons and we filled them up. Filling them up though was a struggle because their house is newly built so everywhere was dirt or mud and we couldn’t fill the balloons in the house or else water would be everywhere. We ended up filling up the balloons on the side of the house where the hose are hooked up at. After filling up like 20 balloons we all started to slip because the…

onto the thick deep layer of the water as my clothes soaked with layers and layers of water. Rapidly getting off the ride as we sprinted across the park heading to the bus which was waiting for reckless and tired children. Stepped out of the bus and made my way to the classroom to pack up my stuff, I could say that this by far was one of the best days of my life. Recalling all the great moments we all had made with our exceptional, funny, enthusiastic teachers who truly added a little sparkle…

why they did it in the first place. For the longest time, the human race has been interested in flight – awed by it even. I think that if there 's something we don 't know as a species, we do anything we can to find out more about it. The interest in flight goes back thousands of years, and as time has gone on, more and more attempts have been made to become airborne. In 1000 B.C.E., the kite was invented in China. In the late 1400 's, Leonardo da Vinci designed various flying machines after…
