Pp on theories
This document discusses several theories that can be applied to analyze the audience of a horror film featuring graphic violence. It suggests that the target working class audience could be viewed as passive receivers of the film's messages about morality. Additionally, different audience members may have dominant, oppositional, or negotiable readings of the violent content. The film may provide entertainment and social interaction for its working class viewers and allow a cathartic release through identification with the characters.
My bloody valentine
The document discusses various elements of horror film trailers and films that are intended to frighten and unsettle audiences. Locations shown in trailers are often dark and isolated to build tension and a sense of unpredictability. Horror films also use everyday locations like supermarkets to make the threat of danger seem more realistic. The mask and title sequence for the film My Bloody Valentine help set the tone that evil will dominate in the film through their dark and ominous visuals.
Camera
The document discusses differences in camera techniques between a slasher film clip and a preliminary task clip. In the slasher clip, close-ups and high angles are used to depict a killing in a way that makes the victim seem weak. Quick cuts lasting 5 seconds are used to show a character running away, conveying an impending quick death. By contrast, the preliminary task uses basic shots like long shots and medium close-ups that have longer durations of 3-4 seconds, creating a slower and more distant feeling.
Class representation 2
The document summarizes how class is represented in a film scene showing a character in an office talking to their boss. In 3 sentences:
The character wears a suit which represents people in higher social classes who work in formal environments like offices. High-key lighting on the character suggests those in higher income classes are more important. Icons like computers, paperwork, desks, and filing cabinets in the office connote a job of high authority due to the hard work and paperwork associated with it.

They also agreed the magazine cover was conventionally structured with features like teasers and a masthead that identified it as part of a magazine.
Research and planning task
The group sourced their own book on horror conventions to broaden their knowledge for their production. They took annotations and key points from the text to ensure relevance. A location release form was used to analyze filming locations and prepare for health and safety. A weather report was produced to choose suitable filming days with the right conditions for an action genre. However, relying on specific weather was risky for time management. The animatic remake of Captain America was not fully followed, so shot planning was not done well and ideas changed, meaning not enough research was done on teaser trailer form.
Props slide
Three iPod touches will act as bomb timers strapped to hostages, creating suspense through quick cuts of the countdown. Two harmless pistols will be used as props by agents, keeping them on safety to film successfully. An air rifle with safety on and empty magazine will also be used for some scenes, keeping it secure since working with school friends. The rifle size and color connotes mass destruction, making it fitting for the intimidating terrorist character.
Texas pp analysis
The document discusses conventions used in the horror film My Bloody Valentine and compares them to techniques used in the author's own film. It notes that both films begin with a flashforward depicting a death to grab audience attention. It also discusses how the films then provide context about the crime scenes and investigate to build intrigue before revealing the main characters and setting up the main plot.
Iconography powerpoint
Slasher films are known for certain iconic images and motifs, including knives, blood, masks, suburban settings, teenagers in danger, and low-key lighting. Examples from films like Prom Night, Nightmare on Elm Street, and Friday the 13th illustrate these conventions, such as a killer wielding a knife, lighting that increases tension, and a masked slasher hiding their identity. Videos provide additional examples of iconography that are common in the horror slasher genre.

The document analyzes a movie poster and provides suggestions for improvements. It recommends using lesser job titles instead of names at the bottom, adding the required 15 rating certification, and placing the main star's name at the top in a conventional way. It also suggests adding more images related to the narrative, such as hostages, terrorists, or a bomb, to convey a sense of urgency and risk to people's lives.
Questionnaire
This document discusses a teaser trailer and poses questions about it. It provides a percentage of 60% but does not give any additional context about what the trailer, questions, or percentage refer to.
Fonts powerpoint
The document discusses the connotations of different font styles for the title of an action film about the battle between good and evil. It analyzes how a bold title font connotes that evil is strong but may be misleading since evil does not actually triumph in the end. A font with irregular letter shapes is seen as disruptive but difficult to read, lacking the intensity needed. An even font where letters are the same size conveys that good and evil are equally matched, suggesting an intense battle without predictable outcomes.
Quiet world analysis
This document analyzes shots from a film to illustrate how they convey a sense of quietness and isolation through lack of human activity and interaction. The long shots show an empty, isolated location. Medium shots show an individual alone without distraction, and the railway in the background that would normally be noisy. Wider shots depict the emptiness and isolation of the character's surroundings. A close-up highlights the character living in their own quiet, lonely world separated from others by a cage. The character's confused stare suggests they are looking for any activity to end the surrounding silence.
Age representation 2
The document discusses how age is represented in a film clip through two characters, Mark and John. Mark, the younger boss, has achieved a higher position than John, the older employee, despite John having more experience. This challenges the stereotype that young people are immature, lazy, and irresponsible, as Mark has overcome other employees through his knowledge and work.
Presentation3
The high vegetation around the barn connotes isolation and separation from the real world. The dilapidated barn structure also connotes isolation but also disruption from unknown forces. The low lighting inside the barn connotes evil and that unknown threats lurk within. The office contains signs of hard work which connote it is a productive workspace for educated employees. The long shot of the office connotes interpersonal distance between the worker and others. The large desk connotes the worker holds a high position such as a boss within the successful company, as suggested by the presence of a computer.
Presentation2
After Effects is a digital visual effects, motion graphics, and compositing application developed by Adobe Systems and published as part of the Adobe Creative Cloud licensing program. Final Cut Pro is a non-linear video editing software application developed by Apple Inc. for the macOS operating system. Both After Effects and Final Cut Pro are industry standard tools used by video editors, motion graphic designers, and visual effects artists for video post-production.
Presentation1
Slasher film openings often conceal the killer's face through masks or darkness and use long shots to set the scene. Close-ups of weapons create tension by showing what will be used without context. Panning and tracking shots are also used to build tension by showing settings or characters' panic without revealing threats. Editing techniques like quick cuts during kills or flashforwards drawing out endings keep audiences engaged by manipulating the flow of information and suspense.

Removing Uninteresting Bytes in Software Fuzzing
Imagine a world where software fuzzing, the process of mutating bytes in test seeds to uncover hidden and erroneous program behaviors, becomes faster and more effective. A lot depends on the initial seeds, which can significantly dictate the trajectory of a fuzzing campaign, particularly in terms of how long it takes to uncover interesting behaviour in your code. We introduce DIAR, a technique designed to speedup fuzzing campaigns by pinpointing and eliminating those uninteresting bytes in the seeds. Picture this: instead of wasting valuable resources on meaningless mutations in large, bloated seeds, DIAR removes the unnecessary bytes, streamlining the entire process.
In this work, we equipped AFL, a popular fuzzer, with DIAR and examined two critical Linux libraries -- Libxml's xmllint, a tool for parsing xml documents, and Binutil's readelf, an essential debugging and security analysis command-line tool used to display detailed information about ELF (Executable and Linkable Format). Our preliminary results show that AFL+DIAR does not only discover new paths more quickly but also achieves higher coverage overall. This work thus showcases how starting with lean and optimized seeds can lead to faster, more comprehensive fuzzing campaigns -- and DIAR helps you find such seeds.

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:

Equipment and resources
- 2. Mac computer With software's from Microsoft word and PowerPoint to final cut express, it has most of the software's we need for most of the editing. It is easily accessible for us to use. In order for us to use we will have to book it, so we are aware to book in advance and be organised. It has fast internet access, if we need to research anything as well this it is available till afterschool as well. This is the computer we will be using during school hours to edit our footage.
- 3. MacBook Pro laptop This is our personal laptop and as a group we save our work on here too as a back up. It is always accessible and when and if the school Mac is booked we can bring in our own laptop to use and continue with our editing. Furthermore, any programs/software’s that the school are unable to provide, we can download and purchase for our use. For example, we have Adobe after effects on this to help create explosions and shooting. On the screen of the laptop is adobe after effects.
- 4. Camera Tripod This tripod again is school property and again like the computer there is a booking system for these. Therefore we are going to be organised and book well in advance so we can film without having to rush around last minute. It is easy to carry as it decrease in size therefore makes it suitable to transport. It is always key to have a tripod as we are able to gain access to different angles and shots to portray the characteristics of characters. For example, a high angle would connote someone to be weak and have little authority.
