Conclusion of Supernatural Horrors
Indya Clayton analyzes elements commonly used in supernatural horror films to create tension and establish genre. Key conventions identified include protagonists threatened by supernatural antagonists, stock characters who help or are also threatened, effective use of sound design and score to set mood, iconic visuals like blood and ghosts, narratives of threatened protagonists, and titles/credits that contribute to an ominous atmosphere.

Article tescos
Tesco was founded in 1919 and has since grown to operate in 12 countries with over 530,000 employees. It faces competitive pressures from lower-priced rivals like Aldi and Lidl that are attracting customers. Tesco also had profits overstated by £250 million, damaging trust in management. While the economy remains weak, Tesco uses market trends effectively by changing its clothing line. It has a competitive advantage through home delivery and an online retail presence, allowing lower prices through reduced store costs. Location choices consider regulations, population size, and rental costs.
Tescos- Competitive factors
Tesco was founded in 1919 in London and has since grown into a global supermarket and online retailer with over 530,000 employees. The document discusses Tesco's competitive factors and position in the market. It notes that while the UK economy has recovered from recession, discount rivals like Aldi have taken customers by offering lower prices. The summary also states that Tesco has effectively used market trends to update its clothing and fashion offerings. Finally, the summary mentions that Tesco has a competitive advantage through its online grocery delivery service, which offers convenience and allows it to compete on price through lower store costs.
Retail formats
The document describes three retail store formats: 1) High Street Format which is located in a busy shopping area with less than 2000 square feet and no parking, like River Island or Next. 2) Destination Format which has a huge parking lot, wide product selection, and services to attract customers. 3) Convenience Store which is located for easy access by target customers, has extended hours, less than 5000 square feet, and only offers essentials like food and drinks for convenience.
What technologies I learnt when filming 'Inner Demon'...
The document discusses the filming and production technologies used to create a media product. It describes three technologies: [1] A Canon 50D camera was used to film high quality footage and store all the videos. It helped the filmmakers improve their filming skills. [2] A Nikon DSLR camera captured motion shots like pans and tracks. They learned how to focus the lens and adjust settings. [3] A steadicam was used to improve footage quality by making the camera more stable and preventing shaky shots. It balances the camera's weight for the highest quality standard.
Skills learnt when editing 'Inner Demon'
The document discusses various editing software and programs that were used to create a media project. It describes learning how to use Apple Macs and Final Cut Pro to edit scenes and add transitions. Issues were experienced with Final Cut Pro due to improperly saved footage but were later resolved. Soundtrack Pro was used to edit soundtracks and music by cutting and adjusting volume and pitch. LiveType was employed to create titles and credits by modifying typography, alignment and transitions, which were then imported into Final Cut Pro. Overall, numerous skills were acquired in using different software to efficiently produce a high quality piece.
Evaluation - Question 3 - Conclusion
WarpX is the most appropriate distribution company for the film because it is an independent UK-based company that has a niche audience appealing to similar films and receives funding from larger companies and the UK Film Council. WarpX is conveniently located in Sheffield for communication, has a targeted audience fitting for the film, and can distribute the film with financial support since it is smaller than major studios that demand large fees.
Conclusion of film openings
Film openings typically use idents to identify the studio or production company. They also use non-diegetic sounds associated with that organization as well as animation and typography to set the mood of the film. Credits are usually clustered halfway through the first scene or at the beginning. The sounds, visuals, and placement of credits in openings are deliberately constructed to portray the atmosphere and engage the audience.
Film openings and conventions
The purpose of a film opening is to entice the audience to continue watching and establish key elements like characters, setting, and genre. Directors have flexibility in their approaches but commonly include opening credits, introduce main characters, or use conventions like titles/logos, establishing shots, animations, flashbacks, narrations or photographs to engage viewers. Some directors take unconventional approaches by leaving out typical elements to create mystery or artistic expression.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI support
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.

Effective Application Security in Software Delivery lifecycle using Deployment Firewall and DBOM
The modern software delivery process (or the CI/CD process) includes many tools, distributed teams, open-source code, and cloud platforms. Constant focus on speed to release software to market, along with the traditional slow and manual security checks has caused gaps in continuous security as an important piece in the software supply chain. Today organizations feel more susceptible to external and internal cyber threats due to the vast attack surface in their applications supply chain and the lack of end-to-end governance and risk management.
The software team must secure its software delivery process to avoid vulnerability and security breaches. This needs to be achieved with existing tool chains and without extensive rework of the delivery processes. This talk will present strategies and techniques for providing visibility into the true risk of the existing vulnerabilities, preventing the introduction of security issues in the software, resolving vulnerabilities in production environments quickly, and capturing the deployment bill of materials (DBOM).
Speakers:
Bob Boule
Robert Boule is a technology enthusiast with PASSION for technology and making things work along with a knack for helping others understand how things work. He comes with around 20 years of solution engineering experience in application security, software continuous delivery, and SaaS platforms. He is known for his dynamic presentations in CI/CD and application security integrated in software delivery lifecycle.

Observability Concepts EVERY Developer Should Know -- DeveloperWeek Europe.pdf
Monitoring and observability aren’t traditionally found in software curriculums and many of us cobble this knowledge together from whatever vendor or ecosystem we were first introduced to and whatever is a part of your current company’s observability stack.
While the dev and ops silo continues to crumble….many organizations still relegate monitoring & observability as the purview of ops, infra and SRE teams. This is a mistake - achieving a highly observable system requires collaboration up and down the stack.
I, a former op, would like to extend an invitation to all application developers to join the observability party will share these foundational concepts to build on:
