Jurassic Park Media Franchise
This is Part 6 of a Data Collection and Analysis assignment in which you will use what you have learned so far about animation to collect and analyze data about the films in the Jurassic Park film franchise. Part 6 will slightly deviate from what you have done in Parts 3, 4, and 5. For Part 6 of this seven-part Holiday Special Assignment, you will create a bar graph to display information about the number of countries in which the films premiered.
As you complete Part 6, remember that the word premiere is one of the vocabulary words. A flim premiere is defined as the first showing (or performance) of a movie, musical or theatrical work; and the first public performance of a creative work.
Common Core Educational Standards (Science and Math)
In Part 6 of this assignment, students will analyze and evaluate the data collected about each of the films in the media franchise by using appropriate graphical methods.
Instructions
First, watch the video below titled “Data Collection Methods - Mathematics Grade 1,” By Periwinkle on YouTube.
Next, create a bar graph to display the number of different countries in which the films premiered. I suggest that you use the table that you created in Part 2 to display the information.
The video below features cast members of the film Jurassic World Dominion (2022) while they take a tour of the props that were used to make the movie. The props are called animatronics, and they were used in the film to simulate real dinosaurs that were animated to look alive. According to Wikipedia, animatronics is technology relating to the usage of electronics to animate puppets or other figures. They are a modern variant of the automaton and are often used for the portrayal of characters in films, video games and in theme park attractions. Animatronic figures are robots that are made to resemble living creatures. They can be controlled by people or through the use of computers. Much like what you will see in the video below, figures are usually encased in body shells and flexible skins made of hard or soft plastic materials and finished with colors, hair, feathers and other components to make them more lifelike. The term Audio-Animatronics was coined by Walt Disney in 1961 when he started developing professional animatronics for entertainment and film.
