Storyboard Text
- Slide: 1
- This is an example of figurative language, more specifically, a simile. The scissors are shown like a knight's sword. This makes the scene seem serious, but it is funny because scissors are not really a weapon. The effect is humor and suspense. The theme shows how small things are treated like big battles.
- Slide: 2
- This is an example of figurative language, more specifically hyperbole and personification. The poem says thousand fairies help with Belinda's hair. This is too many, which makes it silly. The effect is humor. The theme shows how small events are given too much importance.
- Slide: 3
- This is an example of time manipulation = slow pacing. Belinda looks back three times, and the Baron comes closer each time. The repeat slows down the action. This effect is suspense. The theme shows how the poem treats a hair cut like a big fight.
- Slide: 4
- This is an example of figurative language, more specifically hyperbole. Belinda's cries are compared to the loudest tragedies--deaths of husbands, dogs, or shatrered china. The effect is humor, because the poem exaggerates her grief. The theme shows how trival problemas are treated as if they are disasters.
- Slide: 5
- This is an example of figuritive language, more specifically symbolism. The King chair and the sisors becomes a "glorious prize", symbolizing honor and conquest. The effect is satire, because the hair is treated like a military victory. The theme shows vanity and pride turned into false heroism.
- Slide: 6
- This is an example of time manipulation, more specifically foreshadowing. Belinda drops hair patch-box three times, the china shakes, and her pets act strangely. The effect is suspense, hinting that disaster is coming. The theme shows how fate gives warnings, but people ignore them.
