To be destroyed is to be rendered useless or completely defeated and is a state that can be brought upon by oneself or others. In Coky Giedroyc’s adaptation of Wuthering Heights, Emily Bronte’s characters are hurt and destroyed in order for significant ideas to be conveyed, making it a more effective text as audiences are able to understand ideas that may not be in plain sight. Wuthering Heights is set during the Victorian Era and centres around Cathy and Heathcliff 's developing romance and the…
Cinematic Representations of Cognition in Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind Howard and Joel walk into the lab. The camera pans left in a POV shot, like from the perspective of a horrified spectator, from a screaming woman to Stan performing the memory operation. The background is plastered by a large film of the woman’s memories projected onto the wall. Howard speaks of the procedure in the background. With dynamic camera movements, attentive editing, unique approaches to mise-en-scene,…
components, the inciting incident, the story-worthy problem, the initial surface problem, and finally the setup (Edgerton, Les). These elements are all apparent in the opening scenes of Shutter Island. In the opening moments of film, an extreme long shot can be found, which shows Ashecliffe Hospital, the central set of the film. The Ashecliffe Hospital is a facility for the criminally insane. The facility is located on Shutter Island, which is set in Boston Harbor. The view is set from…
settings to capture the diverse range of images instantaneously. Active viewing was something, I thought I did, but it wasn’t until I took a step back and saw the variety of shots and how each one of them is put together that I realized that there is more then one way to watch a movie. The different ways that a film is shot and how the scene is constructed are ways directors convey meaning to the audience. Film language and mise-en-scene are greatly present during the film Edge of Tomorrow. The…
she studies how technology changes the law, criminal justice, and systems of American punishment and the effects it has on society. “I have studied the growth of what I call digital punishment by interviewing those who run criminal history and mug shot websites, by analyzing the content they produce, and by interviewing those working to clear their own criminal records through legal means even against the reality of an endless digital trail”. Sarah explains that…
modulation. The Ne gas pressure has been adjusted inside the chamber to ~2.2bar, in order to yield the broadest spectra. This broadband spectrum exits the capillary through a thin (~0.5 mm) UV-grade fused silica window, which is mounted at Brewster’s angle of ~790 nm at the end of the HCF`s chamber, in order to provide efficient transmission over a broad spectral…
pressure distribution around a NACA 23015 airfoil section with a flap of length equal to the 30% of the cord at different angles of incidence and flap settings. The experiment was performed in a non –return wind tunnel at a Reynolds number of 4.4×〖10〗^5 and at a Mach number of 0.073. It is of note that increasing incidence will increase lift produced until the critical angle of attack, where the airfoil stalls; moreover, deploying a flap will increase the maximum lift produced, but will produce…
"Let me go, let me go." Rivers of tears ran down Alyssa's cheeks as she futilely kicked and struggled to escape the two much stronger men manhandling her down the stairs. "Shut your mouth, you little bitch or I'll shut it for you." "I've got something to shut it with." Duane released the teenager's legs when the reached the ground floor and, as Carlos pinned her arms to her side from behind with her back to his chest and feet dangling in the air, grabbed lewdly at his crotch. Both men laughed…
When watching the “Can’t stand the heat” scene, we get a better understanding of the weather, the emotions, and the racial hatred which puts such a strain on the neighborhood. We understand what is happening during the scene with Lee’s use of color, angles, sound and the way he portrays certain…
and mid-range shots help the audience observe the commitment, Rebecca especially, put into living out her fantasy. Rebecca is known as the ring leader of the robberies as well as presents the most disconnection between what’s reality and fantasy between the teenagers. The two different angles play a collective role in playing out the fantasy the teenagers want to live. In the initial scene when Marc was on his computer looking through the blogs, the computer screen was a close-up angle which…
