Ĭarpenter's early films included box office and critical successes like Halloween (1978), The Fog (1980), Escape from New York (1981), and Starman (1984). At the 2019 Cannes Film Festival, the French Directors' Guild gave him the Golden Coach Award, lauding him as "a creative genius of raw, fantastic, and spectacular emotions". He is generally recognized as one of the greatest masters of the horror genre. Although he has worked in various film genres, he is most commonly associated with horror, action, and science fiction films of the 1970s and 1980s. The body is riddled with bullet holes and you can see the lungs.John Howard Carpenter (born January 16, 1948) is an American filmmaker, actor, and composer. Upper right: One of the figures represents the violence that they have been exposed to in South Africa. Both tracings also have hand and feet prints. Upper left: This student has one figure with a baby. There must be evidence of pattern and texture within the figures.īelow there are samples of body tracings as done by students in South Africa: When speedy students get done early, have them also do the background around the figure. Once the tracings are complete, students then fill in the inside of the figures with patterns an textures- lines, forms, shapes, colors, found objects, etc. Because of the large area of floor that is needed for these tracings, you may have to take students outside, in the gym, or anywhere you have a lot of floor space. After the student is traced in one or two positions, the students will then reverse positions and the partner is then traced.
Students may use pencils or markers to trace but it should be the choice of the person being traced because they are the ones who will be filling in the outline. This allows for more creativity as evidenced by the example images below. More advanced students can do two tracings on one paper in different positions. Tell the students to be as creative as possible. However, we are going to be more creative and do it like a crime scene picture where the body could be in all sorts of positions. The easy way out would be to simply lay down on the paper and trace the outline. Tell students to have one person lay down on the paper and have the other student trace their bodies. Large roll paper or butcher paper has been pre-cut to the average height of elementary students. Students will pair up either on their own or with help from the teacher. Students should have also been exposed to the idea of texture and patterns in art.

There is no creativity in simply lying on the paper. This is an example of how NOT to trace the body. Finally, there is this colorful poster, Untitled (1858-1990) by Keith Haring.
You can also put multiple figures on a very large mural such as what you find in this Keith Haring, Retrospect, 1989. The figures in the Keith Haring: Against Family Violence are in an action pose. The poster, Keith Haring: One Yellow Kicker, You can show several poster prints of his work. (WARNING: Some of the images on the Keith Haring website are inappropriate for elementary student consumption!) Crime scene positions can become works of art. Keith has work that is similar to crime scene figures. This is an opportunity to show work by Keith Haring. At this point, the teacher then says something like, "Today we are going to become crime scene investigators and trace around our partner on a large sheet of paper." "Why do they do this?" They do this to show investigators where the body was found and in what position.
After a variety of answers, if the body chalk tracings aren't mentioned, ask, "What do they do before they take a body away from a crime scene?" They trace a line around the body with Chalk. The teacher asks them what some of the things the police do to investigate a crime scene.

The teacher sets up the lesson by asking students if they watch TV shows such as CSI where they investigate crimes.
