The document discusses various filmmaking techniques used to convey meaning and emotion in a scene. Tracking shots, panning, and close-ups were used to make the audience feel tension. Black and white with fading was used to show how a character's life was sad, boring, and closing in on them. Slow motion was employed so viewers could feel the emotion and how their life had slowed down. A single rose symbolized being alone. Slow motion head turns and an establishing shot of a pub set the scene for character interactions and stories. Voiceovers told two stories at once. Shots of hands exchanging items showed involvement with drugs. High angles depicted inferiority and confusion. Positioning and filters created dark, ominous atmospheres
Gardening with Native Plants - Eastern WashingtonRetiz16x
Native plants are plants that were present in a region before European settlement. They are adapted to the local climate and soils and provide benefits like requiring less water and maintenance than non-native plants. Using native plants in gardens can help support local biodiversity while providing shelter and food for native wildlife. When landscaping with native plants, it is important to choose plants suited to the existing conditions in your yard in terms of soil, light, and water to reduce maintenance needs.

Andrew Goodwin's theory outlines five main aspects that should be present in a music video: thoughts and beats, narrative and performance, star image, relation of visual to song, and technical codes. Specifically, it states that the music, lyrics, and beat should influence the video's cuts and shots. It also asserts that the video should focus on promoting the artist rather than following a complex narrative. Finally, it emphasizes that technical elements like camerawork, lighting, editing, and mise-en-scene are crucial to completing a professional, entertaining music video.

The American Revolution began as Patriots sought independence from British rule. While initially unpopular, the Patriot cause gained support over the course of the war. Key events included Washington's surprise attack on Trenton, the British defeat at Saratoga which inspired international support for the Patriots, and the final British surrender at Yorktown. International support, strategic victories, resilient civilian resistance, and the inability to easily defeat the Patriot forces ultimately led Britain to recognize American independence through negotiation.

Both tools are meant to differentiate instruction and aid student progress.
Christianity grew from a small Jewish sect into the world's largest religion through a few key factors. It began allowing non-Jewish people to join without requiring them to follow Jewish law, expanding its potential membership. As the Roman Empire provided stability and infrastructure that helped ideas spread, Christianity grew rapidly by offering community support and the promise of an afterlife. However, early Christians were also persecuted by Romans for refusing to worship the emperor or take part in traditional religious practices and festivals, leading many Christians to become martyrs who died for their faith.
Portugal established an early dominance in exploration under Prince Henry the Navigator, with Bartolomeu Diaz and Vasco de Gama expanding Portugal's reach down the African coast and discovering a route to India, making Portugal the most powerful European nation. Christopher Columbus, sponsored by Spain, sought a western route to Asia and instead landed in the Caribbean, conquering the local populations who were later decimated by smallpox, with Columbus ultimately dying in poverty. Spain and Portugal divided control of the new world through the Treaty of Tordesillas, guaranteeing wealth and influence for both nations and the Catholic Church. Hernan Cortes and Francisco Pizarro then conquered the Aztec and Inca empires respectively in South America,

Militarization and identity on guam alexandertonysafyc
This document summarizes an academic article about the impacts of militarization on the indigenous Chamorro people of Guam. Over 400 years of Spanish and U.S. military colonial rule has devalued Chamorro culture and identity. The U.S. now controls a third of Guam's land for military bases. Using an intersectional analysis of gender, indigeneity and citizenship, the document examines how militarization has affected Chamorro bodies, identities and social relations in complex ways. It also discusses the history of Spanish colonization, how this disrupted traditional Chamorro gender roles and social hierarchy, and the impacts of continued U.S. military presence and proposed military buildup on Guam today

This document summarizes the book "Global Noise: Rap and Hip-Hop Outside the USA" which examines how rap and hip-hop have been appropriated in local contexts around the world beyond its origins in African American culture in the USA. The book argues that more innovative developments can be found in places like France, England, Germany, and Japan where strong local currents of hip-hop have emerged. It also discusses how in places like Hawaii, Australia, New Zealand, and the Pacific Islands, hip-hop has been used as a vehicle for political expression of issues important to those regions. While acknowledging local appropriation, the document questions what constitutes the "global" in global hip-hop culture if it is defined only by its
This document discusses two perspectives on Oceania - as "islands in a far sea" and as "a sea of islands". The first view emphasizes the small isolated land areas, while the second sees Oceania holistically with a focus on the interrelationships between the islands and sea. The author argues that the traditional worldview of Oceanic peoples was of a large interconnected region, rather than isolated small islands. Promoting the view of Oceania as confined and dependent risks perpetuating the belittlement of islander cultures and limiting their autonomy. The author advocates shifting to a perspective that recognizes the historical and cultural significance of the seas in Oceania.
1) The human colonization of the Pacific Islands occurred in three main phases, with the earliest peoples settling Near Oceania like New Guinea and the Bismarck Archipelago over 35,000 years ago.
2) Between 3,500-2,800 years ago, the Lapita people colonized Remote Oceania using advanced seafaring skills, spreading as far as Fiji, Tonga, and Samoa. They left behind distinctive Lapita pottery.
3) The third phase saw the settlement of East Polynesia around 1,200 years ago, with peoples reaching places like Hawaii, New Zealand, and Easter Island remarkably quickly, showing sophisticated navigation abilities.
This document discusses the importance of decolonizing Pacific studies by incorporating indigenous perspectives from Oceania. It argues that Pacific studies has traditionally been dominated by Western frameworks that do not fully recognize indigenous ways of thinking. Decolonizing Pacific studies involves reclaiming indigenous knowledge and worldviews that have been suppressed or deemed less valuable. This will help develop a more culturally inclusive philosophy of education.
1) The document discusses the process of colonization and decolonization. It outlines 5 steps of colonization: denial, destruction, denigration, surface accommodation, and transformation/exploitation of indigenous cultures.
2) It then outlines 5 phases of decolonization: rediscovery/recovery, mourning, dreaming, commitment, and action. Rediscovery involves curiosity about one's history and culture after years of colonial domination promoting inferiority.
3) The author provides examples of rediscovery from their own experience and in Hawaiian society since the 1960s as awareness of injustice and illegality in the overthrow of the Hawaiian Kingdom grew, sparking cultural and political revival. Rediscovery is an ongoing process for many to
