Our media product opens like a typical teen horror film to attract our target audience of teenagers. We set the scene of teenagers on a remote holiday without parents to build tension. Our 'Demon' character is modeled after the little girl from 'The Ring' but with modern teen clothing. Our production company is Avalon and distributor is Mordred. As a 15-rated horror film, it cannot include discriminatory, offensive or sexual content but can have strong threats and menace. Through constructing this product, I have learned about editing software, cameras, shots, sound design and analysis of film techniques.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

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.

3. The character we have chosen is a little boy (Demon). We have compared are character to the little girl in the film ‘The Ring’. They have the same image and stance. They both have the covered face with hair and hands by the side, very motionless. Their roles are also very similar they are the horror characters which creates panic and scare for the characters and also the audience. The difference between the two characters is the costumes. She has very tatty and wet drags whilst are character has very modern teen clothing.
4. Are production company name is called Avalon. A production company is responsible for physical production/media. The company may also be directly responsible for raising of funding for the production or may accomplish this through an emissary. A film distributor is a company or individual responsible for releasing films to the public either theatrically or for home viewing A distributor may do this directly (if the distributor owns the theatres or distribution networks) or through theatrical exhibitors and other sub distributors. Our distributor company is called Mordred. The money to create such a film as ours would come from investments.

7. Evaluation Activity 6/7 What have you learnt about technologies from process of constructing this product? At the start of my media project I had a general understanding about technology, but not as such in this area. I did not now about the editing software we used to edit are footage ( Final Cut) and also I had never heard of Blogger the website we used to store all are work and evidence. Very early on in the subject we was introduced to Slide share another website that would help us import videos into Blogger. This was a great website to find out from the teacher as it would be useful for other projects. Many camera shots and terminology I also didn't now t the start of media I now do as t has widened my overall knowledge in the subject. Also instead of just watching TV and films I can now analyse them and understand why a director has included something in the filming. From my Prelim task I have also learned how to use a camera effectively and how to get the best shot: from using equipment like the tripod and also the different modes on the camera like auto correct. Also we used a very well known shot which I didn't now of before, the 180 degree shot within are horror opening. The Rule of thirds was also introduced to use and that improved are Prelim Task especially very well. We also used a programme called Garage band where we was able to create non-diagetic sound to put over are horror opening which sounded great an added to the tension in are opening. Looking back at your prelim task, what do you feel you have learnt in the progression from it to full product ?
