Time has always been a subject of fascination. Time can’t be touched. It’s not a physical entity, yet there are all sorts of ways to manipulate time. Time can be captured, ignored, destroyed, created, felt, cherished, and seen, as if it were the living embodiment of a person. Many people dispute what time actually is, for now the best explanation of time is that it is a unit of measurement of a string of random moments that occur in a progressive sequence.…
Most people procrastinate on a daily basis. To put of studying or working on a daily basis “Structured Procrastination” and “A Stitch in Time” both proclaim that procrastination is bad. “Structured Procrastination” says that everyone procrastinates so it is not that bad. “A Stitch in Time” says that procrastination is a trap. It also seems like something a boss would give to his employees, or something a teacher would give to a student.…
The narrative is structured in TWO TIME-FRAMES. The first is a dramatization of 1990-2016; the majority of the series exists as the dramatization of three central possessions which relate to the hunt for the killer, as well as the complications of Issac’s personal life over those years. The second time-frame is 2016; punctuating, intercutting, and sometimes undermining the central dramatization are scenes of Issac in 2016, giving testimony in a police interrogation room. Through these interrogations, Issac is an occasional narrator, sometimes commenting on the action we watch, sometimes contradicting it with his statements. The entwining of these separate elements offers special storytelling opportunities through its juxtapositions, and allows…

To time travel might be the most awesome and impossible ideas that humans have come up with. If it was possible there is no doubt in when and where i would want to go. Watching and playing baseball are two of my favorite things to do. I would want to go to Chicago in 1932. Emerging, Babe Ruth was becoming a household name in the 1930’s.…
A Sound of Thunder Time travel is a fascinating concept that has been at the forefront of science fiction literature for generations. Ray Bradbury's "A Sound of Thunder" explores this concept, but it is not glorified or embellished. The story is about Eckels, a man who travels back to the age of dinosaurs to hunt Tyrannosaurus Rex, and is faced with the severe consequences of his actions. Bradbury’s theme of technological innovation demonstrates that not all scientific advancements are ethical, or beneficial for humankind.…

The time travel paradox or simply temporal paradox is a self contradictory argument in which time and space contradict each other and challenge destiny. A paradox is a self-contradicting idea that is logically unacceptable because there is no logic explanation to prove it. There are two types of temporal paradoxes: the causal loop and the grandfather paradox; each of them have the same basis, but have subtle differences. The movie “12 Monkeys” is built around a causal loop that enters in the subgenera of a self-fulfilling prophecy. This specific genre of the time travel paradox is based on the fact that an event in the future affect events of the past that will later on affect the future making an inconsistent logic of unexplainable relation of time and space.…
Over the years I have traveled both forward and backward in time and around…
If you know me, you would know that I am always on time and I don't like being late. I will wake up 30 minutes early to be on time 30 minutes early, as anything can happen meanwhile. I am the one waiting for others instead of others waiting for me. So the worst habit for me about people are being late.…

Camera work and effects were essential to Back to the Future’s success. Zemeckis and the film crew certainly had their hands full when filming scenes with the DeLorean time machine. They did a great job of making the car look as though it was flying and traveling through time, even though they had to work with the visual effects and technology of the early eighties. Looking at the action scenes, the camera actually seemed to keep up fairly decent with the many intense action sequences. All in all, the visual effects added a genuinely nice touch to promote the feel of the…
