Animated Films are ones in which individual drawings, paintings, or illustrations are photographed frame by frame (stop-frame cinematography). Usually, each frame differs slightly from the one preceding it, giving the illusion of movement when frames are projected in rapid succession at 24 frames per second.

We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...Sandy Millin
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

FILM OPENING SEQUENCE
CODES AND CONVENTIONS
•This presentation is done as a
part of my secondary research.

internet , trying to find
inspiration in YouTube videos and
interesting texts
2. INTRODUCTION
• The purpose of film opening sequence is to make audience interest and
willing into carrying on to watch a film
• Film opening should be establishing characters and genre.
• Majority of mainstream films in order to be liked to the audience and
to point out key elements of the film follow narrative , established
genre , compositional and graphical codes and conventions such as:
• studio
• titles genre
• themes and
topics
• establishing the gerne
• introduction of characters• sound
• narrations
• enigma
• credits • flashback
• establishing shot
• Action and chase scene
3. • Studio- film opening will always show identification or
logos of the production companies ( often the distribution
company who produced media text), if a film is having a
big budget the logo can be adapted to reflect genre and
story line of the movie. SGI is used to improve the
appearance of the logo these days
• Titles- the usage of titles is vary obvious . Titles are
graphical feature that is used to build up suspense, It
shows title of the film, all casts and production team ,
that were all involved in making a movie.
• Establishing the genre- genre in the film opening
sequence I portrayed so the audience can be able to
establish the genre within opening of film. So opening
will probably include event or character that is known for
a particular genre.
4. • Establishing of characters- in
opening scene of a film, establishing
of characters is used so the audience
is introduced to the main characters,
it signifies the characters importance
and status. In some films the
directors chose not to show
characters, so they can stay hidden
and mysterious •Topic/Theme- it is introduced in
opening of film so audience can create
clear understanding of what they can
expect and what is film about. For
example for comedies and horrors most
of the time there will be theme
suggesting the genre• Narration- it is used in order to
provide information for audience of
what is going on and what will happen
in film. It can be left out because of
creating mystery and tension. In some
films they use non-diegetic sound as
voice overs which give audience a
better understanding and makes the
film more interesting and intriguing
5. • Sound- non-diegetic or diegetic,
both are used in order to help to
set a scene or establish genre .
Also some films may use
contrapuntal sound in opening to
add some mystery
•Enigma- they are
used to create questions
and tension from the
start so the audience fell
interested and hooked to
finding out more
• Credit- credits are
shown in opening of film,
usually clear ,bold and in
readable topography to
show the importance of
credits
6. • Action and chase scene- action
scene is fast paced opening, it
make audience interested
immediately and willing to know
more. It is familiar to action scene
•Flashback – in some opening flashback
is used to show character past or kay
event that will trigger the rest of a film
• Establishing shot – this is one of the
most important camera technique, it
is extreme long shot used to show
place of film .
