O mito no filme: uma proposta de leitura multissemiótica para o Ensino Fundamental

Abstract

In this study, we aim to carry out a multisemiotic analysis of images in screen capture, cut from the films Percy Jackson and The Lightning Thief and Thor: the dark world, proposing a work with the digital fanfiction genre, with two videos found from extracted images fromthese films. Therefore, in a qualitative-interpretive expedient, we use, fundamentally, the theoretical methodological framework of Systemic-Functional Grammar and Visual Design Grammar, suggesting an action-research, with the production of a didactic notebook, to be developed by teacher-researcher and by other teachers. We hypothesize that a verb-visual exploration of the myth in the film and fanfictions can contribute to the student to improve reading, with the mediation of the teacher, making the student perceive elements that make upthe textual texture beyond the surface of the myth in the movie. It is justified by the combination of verbal and visual language, as we note that the work with reading andanalyzing texts is still based on the teacher's “intuition”. From this investigation, we found that working with multimodal texts makes it possible to develop a reading and communicativecompetence of students, as they are texts that offer a multiplicity of signals that circulate in the most varied social spheres in which these students are inserted.
