Applying PostmodernismPost Modernism is the stage where art had to be deconstructed to evolve and develop. The overarching census is that once all ideas had been created, They had to be deconstructed, swapped around and mixed together.

-Parody-Hybridity-Homage-Hyper reality

ParodyA parody is a twisted imitation of another artistic work. Some aspects may be exaggerated, and others downplayed. A parody uses a cine-literate audience’s knowledge for usually, comedic effect. Parodies could not exist without the texts that came before.

HybridityThe period of modernism put art into fixed boxes with separate identities, we now define this as genre. The theory of post modernism believes these boxes/genres have blended.

HomageHomage is defined as a special honor or tribute paid in public. In film this could be one director honoring their visual or conceptual influences.

HyperrealityHyperreality is the inability of consciousness to distinguish reality from a simulation of reality. The theory states what is fiction and real are so diluted, reality can no longer be defined. The Media is often criticised for creating a so called Hyper reality.

The troubling factor about the theory is, what happens when we mix, parody or pay homage to already post modern texts? Are we already doing this?

What would this be called?

Each task has a resource and guidance.

15 minutes on each task and then we will rotate.
