This has nothing about fishing but is homework :S



This document was published in the Herald tribune, is a draw made by Chapatte. The scene takes place at the Cannes festival. At the forward we can see two celebrities and one fan. The fan is excited, he's is wearing a white T-shirt with an Internet symbol on it and he is asking for an autograph to the star. This character symbolises a geek. At the same time he is saying that he has pirated all his movies. This thing angers the star, and we can see that in the expression of his face. Also the girl that is close to the celebrity has an arrogant face. At the background we can see another couple of celebrities waving to the crowd, they are waking on the red carpet that characterise the glamour of this event.
This document focus on the idea that illegal downloads are destroying the films industry and also is damaging the copyright. In a way I'm pro this cartoon cause we are steeling others work but I think that in this way culture is more accessible to all the world and also is a free way of having fun. I think that maybe it must by control but not at the same degree as now, also download films have became a usual act of our life.

  1. What about the self-correction?
    This was supposed to be done as homework over the week-end...

  2. There is a problem both with Post 3 in which your commentary has disappeared (but the video is still there) and Post 1 for which it is the opposite: only the commentary remains, the cartoon has disappeared!
    Please fix that up ASAP.
