The Incredibles by PixarGrade 8 in conjunction with your Physics class you are going to be creating a Super Hero and Side-Kick comic. This assignment will act as your Physics exam review as well as your culminating task in Art. You will be working in pairs where each member of the team will choose a role either as the Super Hero Consultant or as the Side-Kick Consultant which you will then create and present in the form of a Comic Strip or a Flip Book. You will be challenged to create costumes using a wave from the electromagnetic spectrum as well as justify your character's super power using the Laws of Physics (all on your Physics moodle).
Ms. Pak and I will be giving you a comprehensive package to work with, but you will also need to refer to this site as well as Ms. Pak's website. Meanwhile here are some links that you might find interesting and useful:
