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
Photography is the key element of mise en scene that determines how an audience will interpret the visual information in film. Orson Welles used the photography of his 1941 film Citizen Kane to emphasize aspects of the film he wanted viewers to focus on, and to remove non-essential information from the frame. This was accomplished through various camera techniques including manipulation of angles and proxemic patterns. Approaching the end of the film, there is a scene just after Susan (played by
LANGUAGE TECHNIQUE USED IN JOSEPH CONRAD’S HEART OF DARKNESS ABSTRACT The nineteenth century has been called "the age of the novel", as the last of the major forms of literature to appear. The novel was one of the most fluent, diverse, and unpredictable of literary forms. It was the dominant literary form which reached its apotheosis in the Last century. The novel may seem modern but is historically related to other literary forms such as drama and the epic. It took many forms when it emerged in
In The Matrix, a science fiction film based in a post-apocalyptic world after a Terminator Scenario (Where machines attack humans) aligned event, the birth of a hero is shown. Nothing is what it seems in the Matrix, as it stands only as a device to distract people from realizing their cattle like existence, which is in essence an illustration of the ideology of Karl Marx, where reality and the way of life in the Matrix is maintained, oppressed, discovered, and eventually explained. There are various

“Okurrr, Oh MY goodness. how yáll doing, I’m Sheneneh Jenkins, today I’mma be doing some talks for you folks about stereotypes. Nah, I’m just playing. Based on the character that I just portrayed, it is common that when most people meet me, they immediately think that I am loud, ghetto and ratchet as hell. As you all should hopefully know by now I am Ange Nishimwe, and unless you’re blond and have not come to the realisation, the topic that I would like to discuss with everyone is that of stereotypes
20th Century At the turn of the 19th/20th centuries Louis Pasteur invented pasteurization while Robert Koch discovered his famous or infamous postulates: the anthrax bacillus, the tuberculosis bacillus and the cholera vibrio. Phase Contrast MicroscopeUV and Phase: By 1900, the theoretic limit of resolution for visible light microscopes (2000 angstroms) had been reached. In 1904, Zeiss overcame this limitation with the introduction the first commercial UV microscope with resolution twice that of
Materials: • Preserved Earthworm • Dissection Tray • Gloves (optional) • Safety goggle (optional) • Lab Apron (optional) • Scalpel • Probe • Dissecting Pins Method: • Earthworm should be taken from a preserving chemical as it prevents the earthworm`s organs from rotting. • Lay the earthworm on a dissection tray when dissecting as it holds the earthworm`s body in to place. • Gloves, lap apron, and safety goggle protect the hands, body, and eyes from any exposure to bacteria and chemicals while
Most of you must have an experience in feeling sweating, feeling burn, and skin turning to red, as red as skin of shrimp when it was being boiling when being exposed to direct sunlight. All of you must feel not comfortable with those conditions, right? So, today I am going to talk about the sunburn problem and the solution to this problem. I want to tell you about this as I am obsessed with health, skin care and skin beauty and I have gained much information from many sources that I have read. So
objective lens, the rays refract and converge until they hit the focal point. After they pass the focal point, the rays start to diverge. The rays are then intercepted by the eyepiece lens where the light refracts as it passes through the lens and causes the light rays to become parallel again as discussed in Converging Lens. The image produced by a Keplerian Telescope is magnified, inverted and virtual. Calculations To calculate the focal length for both lenses, the Descartes’ Method (thin lens method)
For people who struggle with sight, glasses are a general source of clarity and comfort. But, the second the glasses become fogged up, life becomes an intimidating blur which causes confusion. However, once the frames are cleaned, that uncertainty is alleviated. The seemingly impenetrable fog that accumulates on glasses coincides with the fog that materializes in the mind of an adolescent. Transitioning between childhood and adulthood is accompanied by a disconnection from comfort that will eventually
Introduction Draft - Brandon King Before the microscopes cells were thought to be pure gibberish, they weren’t considered a plausible theory for how things were created. It was thought right up until the invention of the microscope in 1590 that things just appeared or were put onto the earth by God. It wasn’t even a possibility for things to be made up of miniscule organisms that have their own little body. After the invention of the microscope the whole world was torn apart and so many people's
This is a review of the Vixen Optics R130Sf Newtonian and Porta II Mount Telescope. It's a reasonably priced telescope that is a great medium aperture for viewing nebulae. The light gathering of this telescope means that you'll get sharp images if you decide to use this with your camera for pictures of your favorite planets or clusters of stars. It's a quality kit that's lightweight and provides tons of light for amateur astronomers. Owners of this R130Sf telescope found this an intuitive option
lensmaker was the first person to think about the telescope as he wanted to see things that were far away in close distance (1608). It wasn’t until 1609 when Galileo Galilei, an Italian physicist built his own telescope (in the matter of days!) with a lens after hearing about the refracting telescopes that had appeared in the Netherlands around 1608. Galileo was the first person to point the telescope towards the sky and was able to see craters on the moon. Galileo also saw a beam of light that was
Slowly turn the coarse adjustment so that the objective lens goes up (away from the slide). Continue until the image comes into focus. Use the fine adjustment, if available, for fine focusing. 7. Move the microscope slide around so that the image is in the center of the field of view and readjust the mirror
“Monday” by Mark Helprin tells the story of the main character Fitch and his endeavor to renovate, Lilly’s, a previous client of his, apartment in New York. Helprin utilizes four virtues in “Monday”. The first of which is Intelligence, meaning, “the ability to learn or understand or to deal with new or trying situations”1 (Webster). The second virtue is Compassion, “sympathetic consciousness of others' distress together with a desire to alleviate it,” (Webster). The third is Courage, “mental or moral

the jaws is gained only in the anterior of the midline, the use of this technique for the calculation of horizontal dimension of alveolar process is applicable to this area only. [49,52] 2.4.5 Panoramic Radiography: The resolution of and the shape of the panoramic radiographs is less than that of an intraoral film but it provides a broader visualization of the two jaws and the anatomical structures nearby. The panoramic imaging technique is distinct because of the magnification in vertical plane
Berntsen explained that each child is randomly assigned one of three kinds of contact lenses. The control lens is one that is normally prescribed to correct myopia. The other two are bifocals with varying degrees of plus-power in the periphery of the lens focusing the light sooner at the edges, controlling eye growth according to the findings of Smith’s research. The peripheral light is then focused in front of the retina, which
Rear Window The film masterpiece “Rear Window” is directed by Alfred Hitchcock and is known for its unique ability to connect to the hearts of many. The movie intrigues the audience from the opening scene to the dramatic amusement, Hitchcock’s movie is near impossible to predict and is composed of multiple plot twists and surprises. Despite being a harsh movie critic, I truly appreciated every single detail that is put forth by the Director. Unsurprisingly, Hitchcock is known for countless other
