Malcolm Turnbull Carographic Techniques

Introduction: As long as there have been civilizations, there have been stories, myths that are told to children. These stories are usually the basis of the cartoons characters except some which are from creator’s imagination. This story telling is a means of not only comforting and amusing a child, but of teaching the child the societal norms of their nation. These are memorized by children and remembered forever. Children idolize their favourite character, the character they have most in common with and are best able to identify with, and try to emulate that character’s

Though Political satire is usually used to provide entertainment and humour, it is also used to expose absurdity and hypocrisy among the political world. In order to understand the concept and meaning of a political cartoon, the reader must have an insight of the current political status and issues or it would be difficult to comprehend the cartoon. The cartoon, ‘Knights and Dames’ attempts to express the cartoonists opinion on the current Knights and Dames issue which is the reintroduction of the use of Sir and Madame. Knights and Dames are predominantly used throughout the United Kingdom. Tony Abbott, the man in the cartoon is shown in an unflattering light in order to make fun of him and his choices as prime minister. He is shown holding a flag from the United Kingdom with a book that says ‘Knights and Dames Reaction’. This shows that the cartoonist attempts to express that we are becoming like the UK and somewhat turning into them through Tony Abbotts choices hence why the

This cartoon is depicting Australia’s politics denying Australia citizens the right of same sex marriage, using the iconic TV show, The Voice, to convey the message. The audience is first drawn to Tony Abbott who is shown with overlarge ears and stating that he should not be ‘expect[ed]’ to ‘turn’ around for same sex marriage, which represents him not allowing it. The way he is sitting is also showing his stubbornness on the issue. The audience then see the other “judges” who have all said yes to marriage equality. This represents USA, Ireland and New Zealand who all allow same sex marriage. These countries being used may be to make the audience feel as if Australia is falling behind these countries that we are so similar to.

They use their artistic skills as an aid to convey messages to people of all ages. Political cartoons appear all over the internet and social media. The cartoonists usually distort several of the characters’ physical features in order to emphasize a belief or criticize an idea in the society. A recent political cartoon depicts Donald Trump with a long nose. The cartoonist tried to influence the viewers into believing that Donald Trump is a liar, and he does not fit to be president. It might seem that the cartoonist drew the cartoon just to make the viewers laugh, but his goal was actually to present the reasons why US citizens should not vote for Trump. This drawing might not immediately cause the viewers to alter their attitude towards Trump, but the drawing will appear in the viewer's’ mind whenever the presidential election is mentioned. Sometimes, the cartoon might even influence the viewer to vote for Clinton instead of Donald Trump. The more entertaining a cartoon appear, the faster the picture will spread throughout social media and the internet. This will allow the cartoonist to spread his ideas to a greater amount of

Originating in the 19th century, political cartoons are created and drawn as a means to deliver a message. Whether it be about politics, events or social concerns, the artist is able to express themselves creatively. The cartoons are not only meant to express the view of the creator, but are also open to interpretation. Most political cartoons have a biased point of view and uses rhetoric to persuade its audience.

Cartoons have been use for many years and its modern usage refers to a typically non-realistic or semi-realistic drawing or painting intended for satire, caricature, or mock different things. John Backderf, known as Derf, is a famous and recognized cartoonist “who works out of an unheated, attic studio in his Cleveland home, grew up in a rural, small town in Ohio and went to high school with serial killer Jeffrey Dahmer” (“Bio”). He drew a cartoon in 1995 in which he presents an implicit theory about how and why things evolve to be “cool”. This paper will elaborate on explaining what Derf’s theory actually is, an interpretation of the meaning presented in the cartoon, and a fad or style that follows Derf’s theory.

2. The aim of the cartoon is to influence Australian with biased opinions on non-white foreigners. This was partially to help convince those who disagreed with the government to in fact support what would become the 'White Australia Policy' and try to keep the new country European and purely white - free from any coloured spots that they saw the foreigners as.

Images are a universal language that can be communicated and read by everyone. An image can be used to portray a simple conversation, a deep meaning or emphasize a cause happening in our world. However, understanding the complex meaning behind the images depends on an individual’s interpretation and observation. In the Graphic Novel, “The Rabbits” by John Marsden and Shaun Tan’s demonstrate a cause happening in our society from a very long time ago. The impact rabbit invasion made to the indigenous people and their land. Through illustrations, quotes, and symbolism, the ideas are well communicated throughout the book. In our society, most of the people don’t take responsibility for others; unless there is a possible outcome that would favor their own self-interest. As humans we are selfish and only tend look out for ourselves and our needs. We do not focus on how our

The cartoonist has intentionally caricatured Turnbull and his wife’s height to make them look childlike. The effective use of the caricature has negatively adjusted the way Australian citizens view Malcolm Turnbull. Furthermore, exaggerating their height into little children could also indicate what Turnbull is really like when discussing important political changes in Parliament between parties; he is very apprehensive like a little boy in a pet shop. To the last example, Turnbull’s eyebrows and anxious smile has particularly been caricatured for further understanding of Turnbull’s hesitation. This effectively brings out Malcolm confidence as a Prime Minister and how strained he is as ‘the crowd’ closely observes him. Moreover, Turnbull putting his hand on his chin is a great provision to show his anxiousness alongside a fake smile towards the proposing idea ‘GST Increase’ represented by an unappealing scorpion. The effective use of caricature is especially useful when Turnbull’s nervousness is contrasted with his positive media portrayal. Caricature plays an important role on delivering the cartoonist’s message about Turnbull and revealing his true

Cartoons have been a prominent and interesting apparatus for politics throughout the ages. Political movements, parties, and groups using propaganda to further their beliefs dates back to the eighteenth and nineteenth century. Though America faces an austere history, lighthearted propaganda colors its decades and gives them life. Political cartoons are so widely used in America that they have become a significant piece of pop culture. Moreover, because of their ability to capture the reader’s attention, propaganda is exploited throughout politics.The cartoons are wonders of the human imagination; illustrators create comical images and intertwine profound political opinions to influence their viewer’s mind. For example, one movement that abundantly grew from propaganda was the women’s rights movement. The artists of the seemingly despised cause drew controversial cartoons that set a fire in the hearts of women all over the world. Consequently, the same cartoons ignited a passionate war between women who wanted freedom, and those who believed that women could not handle that freedom. Through the use of colorful concepts and daring expressions, political cartoons display the influence of the women’s rights movement throughout history, while the cartoons of Anti-Feminists demonstrates the world’s reaction to the movement.

While plays like Godface can sometimes stray towards being overtly heavy-handed in message, political satire in artistic forms is always important, only more so given Australia’s current situation. Not only does it allow us to poke fun at the systems that control us, it also gives us a chance to properly scrutinize them and find the loopholes that are used for its manipulation and power.

The people in the cartoon are John A. MacDonald and Alexander Mackenzie. Johan A. MacDonald was the first prime minister of Canada and Alexander Mackenzie was the second prime minister of Canada. b) Alexander Mackenzie seems to be angry about something that John A. MacDonald did or said. I know this because of the way Makensy is standing (tall and powerful, with his arms behind him) and by the angry look on his face. John A. MacDonald seems sad or upset.

There are several important implications that contribute to this scholarly dialogue. First of all, the function of depictions in policy creation is demonstrated. “Social policy deliberations are anecdotal in nature because the depictions vivify problems that are difficult to quantify” (Gring-Pemble, 2001, p. 359). In depictive rhetoric, “depictions imply narratives” (Gring-Pemble, 2001, p. 343). In other words, the attributes one uses to describe an individual implicate a more comprehensive image for the audience, concerning behaviors, lifestyles and
