Co-construct a SEXXXYparagraph 
In the scene were Auggie cries to his mother about being bullied, Colour and lighting are used to create an atmosphere of sympathy we see this through the use of warm and dull colours in the shot. These make the space feel safe and comfortable for Auggie to express his emotions. this makes us understand how Auggie is feeling miserable, oppressed and depressed because he looks different from his peers. he askes his mum "will it always matter" Which is a feeling most of the audience can relate too. This was done to show the theme of the importance of friendship and family because Auggie learns resilience by talking issues through his mum. Combined with this is the use of close up shots to show the emotions and tears on Auggie's face. The viewer of a moment later in the story where Auggie is upset because of his sister Via doesn't want him to go to her play. Just like this scene, Auggie runs to his room upset and a member of his family comes to reassure him.
