Cinema Cops
In this lesson students develop awareness of the ways in which public perceptions of law enforcement have been both reflected in and influenced by film and television depictions of police over the past eighty years. Students begin by completing a “Cinema Cop Profile” based on images of police from TV and movies, followed by class discussion on how law enforcement is represented in different film and television genres, and whether or not these representations reflect reality. A “Cinema Cop Scavenger Hunt” provides students with an opportunity to research the ways in which police have historically been portrayed in film.

Stop Motion Video
Stop motion (hyphenated stop-motion when used as an adjective) is an animation technique that physically manipulates an object so that it appears to move on its own. The object is moved in small increments between individually photographed frames, creating the illusion of movement when the series of frames is played as a fast sequence.
NOTE: Stop motion animation using plasticine is called clay animation or "clay-mation".
