One of the first signs of a well-managed place, whether it is a restaurant, hotel, airport, office or train station, is its level of cleanliness. If the place isn’t clean, it is unlikely to impress anyone. The same applies to an entire country. Indians who travel abroad are often awestruck by cleanliness levels in the developed world. Therefore, if we want our country to realize its full potential in the world, we have to make it clean. A land of filth, no matter how talented its people and how…
Part Three On Saturday, I attended the free reading of Columbinus by the American Theatre Project at the Performing Arts Center. The first thing I noticed about the writing was that the characters in the first Act were stereotypes of high school cliques. I think this was an effective stylistic choice, as it made the characters very general--at once more relatable to a larger group of people, and providing distance at the same time, as stereotypes rarely actually describe a single person…
aspects and techniques for countering any negative thoughts about being inferior. The self-talk scrip would be created since it the best way to program positive self-talk. The use of the Smart-Talk Script Development Form along with the Self-Talk Log would be used to create the script. The script would be highly specific and directed with a purpose of trying to block out any thoughts about the other schools through the use of vivid language, famous quotes, song lyrics, and specific goals…

Morris University Phonathon, there is a lack of professionalism and a lack of formality. All Colonial Callers are provided with a script that they are to strictly follow in order to increase their chances of securing a donation. However, many of the advanced Colonial Callers termed “Veteran Callers,” do not closely adhere to any part of the Colonial Caller Calling Script. This problem has proved to be detrimental to the Robert Morris University Phonathon.…
the first stanza from the song, “Hall of Fame” “Hall of Fame” is by The Script and was written in 2012. “As I grew Older” is by Langston Hughes and it was written in 1925. These two poems have similar themes, although the two speakers were in different time periods they both wrote about the same thing. The Script turned “Hall of Fame” into a song and sang it while Langston Hughes’s was just a regular poem. Because The Script had its poem into a song, it gave it a better style which made more…
by scene breakdown and just started writing the screenplay first. This can not only create some problems in the story, but also increase the amount of time the writer will spend writing the script. By having the scene by scene breakdown in hand the writer can use it as a direct reference when writing the script, making the screenplay easier and faster to write, and allowing the writer to focus on the complexities of clever dialogue, detail action sequences and basically executing the story…
be a more in-depth look at script analysis and design, I had never had enough Technical Theatre II students to have a stand-alone class, now I do. Since each year Texas University Interscholastic League holds a competition for design, and we had never competed, I felt it was time to begin the deeper study of design; it was welcomed when this year UIL picked Macbeth as the design prompt for the design competition. It dovetailed nicely with my desire to add in-depth script analyst study I had…

the many reasons why script came into play. The development of complicated civilizations, social orders, economies with taxes, and trade all together proved that the town was in desperate need of written records. Writing managed all the systems that were presented, including political, religious, and military. The beginning of all written records came from the Sumerians. This was around 5000 years ago. They did not create stories or important documents. The original form of script was produced…
