Despite being the editor for our client project, I had involvement throughout all stages of the production process; and in this report I will try and evenly discuss both my unique role as well as my other involvements and how they came together to teach me lessons and introduced me to new experiences. Preparing me for a career in the professional corporate video industry. Throughout our shoots on location; easily one of the greatest challenges we and to rise up to as a team related to the issues brought about by exterior on-location film shoots. Our first couple of shoots were a learning curve in respects to how weather and environment can affect our shoot.
In order to determine the topic of one of these speeches, one can examine their titles because they generally offer viewers a comprehensive idea of the speaker’s thesis and main ideas. Characteristically, the speaker offers his audience subject matter either that no one has previously contemplated or that may seem obvious at first, though most people have never actually considered it. In “Listen and Learn,” Nathan Heller points out that much of the subject matter covered within TED conferences involves “world-changing ideas” (69). World-changing topics describe something the viewers frequently encounter or are able to foresee impacting them on a significant level in their lives. Considering the title of Anderson’s talk, “How Web Video Powers Global Innovation,” it becomes evident that web video, something the vast majority of people encounter multiple times per day, is something that creates a clear impact in lives around the world.

The use of visual cinematics allows F.W. Murnau to create a film that shows the main characters being lost, then eventually found, within the setting of a modern frontier. Murnau argues, through the use of the film, that the boundaries between love and lust, city and country, and even life and death are not as distinct as one may believe, and that they cannot be contained by defined
The main media’s used are social media and television which are the main focus of chapter 9. Shirky’s article “Why I Just Asked My Students To Put Their Laptops Away” begins to talk about a way that people investigate and draw conclusions about the intersection of technology and everyday life. While Elavia writes about how reality shows are viewer driven rather producer or network driven. One thing social media and television have in common is how much of an impact they have on today. Everywhere you look there are ‘perfect’ images being displayed representing unrealistic goals.
Over the past century, film has served as a powerful means of communication to a global audience and has become a vital part of the contemporary culture in a world that is increasingly saturated by visual content. Due to the immediacy and the all-encompassing nature of film, the process of watching a film, is widely perceived to be a passive activity by the general masses. However, quoting Smith in his article about the study of film, “nothing could be further from the truth.” The study and understanding of film as an art form enhances the way we watch and appreciate films. It requires the audience's active participation and interaction with the film in order to fully comprehend the directors' intention behind every creative decision.
Family Guy There have been many television shows that I have had the privilege of enjoying with friends and family. Some shows are funny others depressing and others are becoming more dramatic than full films. However, only one television show is constantly on Netflix in my household, it is, Family Guy. Season one or the most up to date season, it does not matter which episode plays first, all episodes are enjoyed as much as the first laugh that the show provoked in my home. Family Guy has become part of the family primetime entertainment.
For hundreds of years, stories have been passed on from one person to another through the oral tradition and the visual arts. In our society today, film is the dominant form of storytelling. Films shape and inform our opinions of the world. Many people’s only source of information is from films. This can be harmful when the information is false or misguided.
The perspective from which a story is told is of infinite importance to how it is received by an audience. According to Harold Lasswell’s (cited in Hawkes, n.d) behaviourist theories, “if messages are not received as intended, this is deemed to be a failure of communication in a technical or behavioural sense”. Since, according to Lasswell, there is a direct correspondence between the meaning intended by a sender and how that meaning is interpreted by a recipient, the distinction between Beasts of No Nation, Cary Fukunaga’s film adaptation of Nigerian author Uzodinma Iweala’s novel about child soldiers fighting a war in an unnamed African country, and Invisible Children, a 2012 documentary about the Lord’s Resistance Army’s(LRA) use of child soldiers in Northern Uganda is definitely a testament to the importance of narrative to outcomes in
The film features dramatic reenactments of the algorithms used by social media platforms to keep users engaged. These scenes are visually striking, and they effectively illustrate the ways in which social media companies use data to manipulate users. The film also uses graphic design to highlight key points and statistics, making the information more accessible and memorable for the audience. To continue the mode of senses used within The Social Dilemma, sound is another rhetorical strategy used.
Another theme that is explored is the gain in power and liberation through finding or disclosing the truth. These themes are accompanied by an insightful use of cinematography, which enhances the audiences’ engagement
Being a visual medium of presentation, a film creates an instant, direct and more convincing impression on its audience fulfilling its dual purpose of entertaining as well as sensitizing the audience. A lot of movies based on social issues are now being made to create awareness among people about the issues besides entertaining the audience, which is perhaps the foremost purpose behind the making
In our society today, every individual’s ideas can be exchanged in various creative forms. The short film medium, being a form of social commentary, is a pertinent driving force behind shifts in personal values. Thus short films as a textual form have great value and impact to society due to their versatile delivery. Steve Cutts’ Happiness (2017) is a satirical film whose fast-paced nature prioritises meaning over matter to critique the constant pursuit of happiness in misplaced interests. Erez Tadmor and Guy Nattiv’s Strangers (2003) depicts a singular scenario and builds tension to convey the overcoming of entrenched racial divides.
