Sympathy In The Film 'How To Train Your Dragon'

“How to train your dragon” Made in 2010, directed by Dean DeBlois and Chris Sanders. These two people have directed the film, and because of that, they have made the audience feel sympathy throughout the film as if the characters were real people that they know. Sympathy make the audience feel more exited about the film, more interested to see what happens next, but the main purpose, is to make us understand a character’s problems or feel sorry for a certain character. The film codes used to create sympathy from the audience are “character codes”, “representational codes” and also “technical codes” These codes are the building blocks of almost the entire film. Firstly, the character code represents the dialogue of a character within a given scene. Secondly, the representational code refers to the development of a character based on the culturally specific context it is situated in. Finally, the technical code surrounds the filmmakers’ choice of equipment to construct a media-related text. Character codes are evident within the film to engender sympathy for the protagonist, Hiccup. He is faced with a series of dilemmas and challenges as he attempts to show all of Berk that dragons are not what everyone thinks

Also present are the film codes that make us feel sympathetic for certain characters. A dragon that we sympathise for becomes an unexpected friend from the film “How to Train Your Dragon” (2010). This film is great as it shows the film codes throughout the film so that it can make you sympathise for the characters, making you anxious to as what will happen next. This film is one of the many great films out there as the film codes make the movie very detailed while attracting the audience further into the story as it progresses. The film as it goes on, we see change in characters and they become more innocent and characters that we feel like we know in
