Throughout term 4 we have been focusing on That Sugar Film by Damon Gameau. Damon Gameau is an Australian actor who directed and took the lead role in the documentary That Sugar Film.
Whilst the documentary is biased, this is necessary in order to educate the audience effectively. The key techniques that Damon Gameau utilises in this documentary in order to persuade and position the audience to take his side are his interviews with experts, the shocking images showing the effects on your teeth, and last but not least, the most effective technique is the use of himself as a guinea pig in an experiment. It is this technique that is the game changer for Damon Gameau and is his trump card in positioning us to accept his view that sugar is evil. …show more content…

He uses the technique of himself this is the best technique to use for he is demonstrating to the audience. The documentary of the sugar farm Damon Gameau uses a great technique of using his own body to show us how sugar affects the body and what it is destroying in the body. I think this technique in his documentary is the most impactful thing that the viewers can see first-hand on how this attacks the human body and makes it decay basically like a rotten tomato. This type of play shocks the audience and will put the viewers in an off-setting mood. This adds an extra shock value to the viewers they view upon this as the most disgusting thing at the moment and see how the person’s body is making a change from going from slim to too fat, from healthy to unhealthily this puts thoughts into a viewer’s head and they will think to themselves on making changes to their diets so they won’t end up obese and unfit. For me this links back to the movie supersize me this film also consists of the same method of using themselves as an experiment which will show the viewers will see them as and then they will reverse back to their former selves and show the viewers that it’s very easy to change the way you will see

The film 13th directed by Ava DuVernay targets an intended audience of the Media and the three branches of the United States government with an emphasis that mass incarceration is an extension of slavery. It is intended to inform viewers about the criminalization of African Americans and the United States prison boom. 13th uses rhetorical devices in its claim to persuade the viewers by using exemplum in the opening seconds of the film. President Barack Obama presents statistics, saying “the United States is home to 5% of the world’s population but is home to 25% of the world’s prisoners.” Also the film uses a hyperbole in talking about the movie Birth of a Nation produced in 1915 which portrays a black man as a violent savage who will kill white women.

The field of performing arts successfully highlight the issue of voluntary euthanasia, illustrating the significance of the topic, and the ever-evolving debate surrounding it. The many disciplines of performing arts such as music, theatre and dance can be utilised to persuade an audience of a certain opinion on voluntary euthanasia. Playwrights produce empathetic, realistic characters the audience can connect to and empathise with. By creating characters that feel complete and don’t lack feelings, the audience are much more likely to be persuaded by the show and the characters themselves.

The 2006 British film “The Queen” depicts events that unfolded after the death of Princess Diana in 1997. In the film, the British Royal Family did not react the way the public expected them to. Due to their lack of grief that was publicly shown towards Princess Diana’s death, it resulted in their actions being heavily criticised by British media and the public. Newly elected Prime Minister, Tony Blair, had to step in to help the Royal Family deal with their bad relations to the public, with the help of Diana’s ex-husband, Prince Charles.

The Fortune Cookie Many films that Billy Wilder wrote and directed reflected the American society through sex and marriage, but in his 1966 comedy, The Fortune Cookie, he showed American greed and the flaws of the civil legal system. With the emergence of independent production companies in the 1960’s came the demise of the Hollywood studio system. This allowed for more creative work and for the director to have more control. Wilder had the power to cast well known actor, Jack Lemmon, and a newbie comedy star, Walter Matthau. The film had acclaim and did well at the box office, but was soon to be forgotten behind the many other classic Wilder made throughout his career.

Film director Sir Peter Hall once said in an interview that “...Shakespeare's text is essentially theatrical and it's dependent on an imaginative make-believe between the audience and the actor” (Shakespeare in the Cinema). Shakespeare’s work has been adapted to film countless times in the last century, as they have been reproduced on the stage since the sixteenth century. The argument over which was better has been present since his work transitioned from stage to screen. Much Ado about Nothing is an excellent example of this, specifically in comparison of the 1993 film edition and the 2011 stage play at the Wydham Theatre in London. Both Kenneth Branagh and Josie Rourke did an excellent job with their directing choices in both, yet neither
