The focus of this week’s lecture is on how we can use Harvard citations and references in academic report. The most importance of a critical report is a clear and systematic structure. In this way, the analysis and content of the article will become organized. The Harvard format is that all text in the article should be Ariel or Times New Roman with a size of 12pt and spacing of 2.0 lines.
How to use academic resources correctly and effectively in a critical report is very important. Choosing good academic resources can make the analysis in the critical report more convincing. I saw Bliss’s Redefining the anthropomorphic animal in animation this week. This article analyzes some examples of anthropomorphic design. He believed anthropomorphic design can strengthen the emotional connection with the audience (Bliss, 2016). I was very interested in his example of the chicken running. The chicken in this claymation is no ordinary chicken. They have human teeth and run like humans. This is a very classic and basic anthropomorphic design of animal characters.
