Creative Archetype Assignment

You have had a relationship with archetypes since a young age—Carl Jung might argue this is true since your conception.  In fact, many movies and sitcoms use archetypes as part of their humor (think of the hero in “Spiderman,” or the villainous Joker in “Batman”).  Throughout this unit, you have identified common archetypes across ancient and modern texts and visuals.   

1. Choose the ONE archetype you most relate to, recognize, and/or like.  

1. Create a public service announcement that educates your audience on the role of the archetype as well as persuades them that your archetype is one of the greatest—most common, most powerful, most dynamic (changes the most), most unique, etc. 

1. The guidelines for the LSA are below.  

2. I look forward to your LSA!  Be as creative as you want!
