1) It establishes conventions used in the film's narrative structure and opening scene to draw in the audience and create mystery.
2) It examines the strong male gender representation and how the characters' language, behavior and clothing reinforce stereotypes of their rough backgrounds.
3) It proposes typical distribution channels and target audiences for this type of action crime film, aimed at entertaining males aged 15-25.
Media as (opening scenes)
The opening scenes of British realism films establish realism through their use of location shooting, non-professional actors, and focus on portraying real social issues and struggles faced by youth. These films tell stories that follow characters on a journey as they face challenges in their real lives. The opening scenes set the tone for showing gritty, realistic depictions of working-class life without many explanatory titles or dialogue.
Rahel Evalaution q1
The document discusses the planning and influences for a film opening sequence. It analyzed social realist films like "Adulthood" to understand how to attract their target audience. They decided to use fast cuts and music to create tension, as was done in "Adulthood". Locations and character costumes were also chosen to match this genre. The opening sequence was meant to resemble "Adulthood" through its use of violence, urban music, and London setting while maintaining their own film's story and budget constraints. Real media products helped guide important creative decisions for the opening.
Media evaluation
The document provides an evaluation of a group's teen comedy media project. It summarizes their preliminary task, planning and production process, research conducted on opening scenes of teen comedy films, and feedback received. It also compares their project to films like Project X and 21 Jump Street that informed their genre choices.
Evaluation
The document summarizes a student's media studies evaluation of a short film they created. The film is about a stalker chasing a man through a wooded area. Two lost hikers come across the stalked man being held captive. The student discusses the plot, filming techniques, representation of social groups, intended audience, and potential distributors for the film.
Question 5 evaluation media
The document discusses a film called "Gone" produced by Athens Productions. It summarizes interviews conducted with the target audience which revealed a preference for thriller films due to their sense of mystery and tension. The film "Gone" was crafted to appeal to this target audience by including these thriller elements such as an mysterious opening and use of music and editing to build suspense. It represents both genders and teenagers to reflect the target demographic. While it follows some thriller conventions, it also challenges conventions to make the film unique.
Our Short Film Pitch 1
The document outlines a proposed short film project by two students. The film would follow a girl suffering from bullying at school and abuse at home. It would have a documentary-style with natural lighting. The plot would be revealed through a series of flashbacks, showing the girl dealing with her father's death. The ending would show the girl and a recurring boy character coming together at a grave. The film is aimed at teenagers and would follow the drama genre. The students hope to receive funding from UK film councils and have the film distributed by production companies that specialize in short, independent dramas.
Evaluation question 1
The document discusses how the film challenges conventions of the post-apocalyptic genre. While typical openings show heroic protagonists fighting enemies, the film opens with the protagonist preparing for a journey alone. It also challenges conventions by featuring a teenage protagonist, which is rare for the genre. Some conventions are followed, like the protagonist's worn clothing suggesting a hard life. Limited budget prevented high-production elements, but nearby derelict buildings were used effectively. Voice-overs are a genre convention that was incorporated to convey information to viewers. Overall, the film develops conventions in a way that makes the genre and tone clear without copying other works.
Evaluation question 1
The document discusses how the film challenges conventions of the post-apocalyptic genre. While typical openings show heroic protagonists fighting enemies, the film opens with the protagonist preparing for a journey alone. It also challenges conventions by featuring a teenage protagonist, which is rare for the genre. Some conventions are followed, like using a derelict house to portray a ruined world on a low budget. Overall, the film develops conventions enough that the genre is clear without feeling identical to other films through techniques like a character voiceover.

ABSTRACT
The J'BaFofi, or "Giant Spider," is a mainly legendary arachnid by reportedly inhabiting the dense rain forests of
the Congo. As despite numerous anecdotal accounts and cultural references, the scientific validation remains more elusive.
My study aims to proper evaluate the existence of the J'BaFofi through the analysis of historical reports,indigenous
testimonies and modern exploration efforts.

Mechanics:- Simple and Compound Pendulum
a compound pendulum is a physical system with a more complex structure than a simple pendulum, incorporating its mass distribution and dimensions into its oscillatory motion around a fixed axis. Understanding its dynamics involves principles of rotational mechanics and the interplay between gravitational potential energy and kinetic energy. Compound pendulums are used in various scientific and engineering applications, such as seismology for measuring earthquakes, in clocks to maintain accurate timekeeping, and in mechanical systems to study oscillatory motion dynamics.

Magmatic iron-meteorite parent bodies are the earliest planetesimals in the Solar System,and they preserve information about conditions and planet-forming processes in thesolar nebula. In this study, we include comprehensive elemental compositions andfractional-crystallization modeling for iron meteorites from the cores of five differenti-ated asteroids from the inner Solar System. Together with previous results of metalliccores from the outer Solar System, we conclude that asteroidal cores from the outerSolar System have smaller sizes, elevated siderophile-element abundances, and simplercrystallization processes than those from the inner Solar System. These differences arerelated to the formation locations of the parent asteroids because the solar protoplane-tary disk varied in redox conditions, elemental distributions, and dynamics at differentheliocentric distances. Using highly siderophile-element data from iron meteorites, wereconstruct the distribution of calcium-aluminum-rich inclusions (CAIs) across theprotoplanetary disk within the first million years of Solar-System history. CAIs, the firstsolids to condense in the Solar System, formed close to the Sun. They were, however,concentrated within the outer disk and depleted within the inner disk. Future modelsof the structure and evolution of the protoplanetary disk should account for this dis-tribution pattern of CAIs.

Anti-Universe And Emergent Gravity and the Dark Universe
Recent theoretical progress indicates that spacetime and gravity emerge together from the entanglement structure of an underlying microscopic theory. These ideas are best understood in Anti-de Sitter space, where they rely on the area law for entanglement entropy. The extension to de Sitter space requires taking into account the entropy and temperature associated with the cosmological horizon. Using insights from string theory, black hole physics and quantum information theory we argue that the positive dark energy leads to a thermal volume law contribution to the entropy that overtakes the area law precisely at the cosmological horizon. Due to the competition between area and volume law entanglement the microscopic de Sitter states do not thermalise at sub-Hubble scales: they exhibit memory effects in the form of an entropy displacement caused by matter. The emergent laws of gravity contain an additional ‘dark’ gravitational force describing the ‘elastic’ response due to the entropy displacement. We derive an estimate of the strength of this extra force in terms of the baryonic mass, Newton’s constant and the Hubble acceleration scale a0 = cH0, and provide evidence for the fact that this additional ‘dark gravity force’ explains the observed phenomena in galaxies and clusters currently attributed to dark matter.
Evidence of Jet Activity from the Secondary Black Hole in the OJ 287 Binary S...
Wereport the study of a huge optical intraday flare on 2021 November 12 at 2 a.m. UT in the blazar OJ287. In the binary black hole model, it is associated with an impact of the secondary black hole on the accretion disk of the primary. Our multifrequency observing campaign was set up to search for such a signature of the impact based on a prediction made 8 yr earlier. The first I-band results of the flare have already been reported by Kishore et al. (2024). Here we combine these data with our monitoring in the R-band. There is a big change in the R–I spectral index by 1.0 ±0.1 between the normal background and the flare, suggesting a new component of radiation. The polarization variation during the rise of the flare suggests the same. The limits on the source size place it most reasonably in the jet of the secondary BH. We then ask why we have not seen this phenomenon before. We show that OJ287 was never before observed with sufficient sensitivity on the night when the flare should have happened according to the binary model. We also study the probability that this flare is just an oversized example of intraday variability using the Krakow data set of intense monitoring between 2015 and 2023. We find that the occurrence of a flare of this size and rapidity is unlikely. In machine-readable Tables 1 and 2, we give the full orbit-linked historical light curve of OJ287 as well as the dense monitoring sample of Krakow.

- 2. IN WHAT WAYS DOES YOUR MEDIA PRODUCT USE, DEVELOP OR CHALLENGE THE FORMS AND CONVECTIONS OF REAL MEDIA PRODCUTS?
- 3. CHALLENGING THE STEREOTYPE The genre of our film is drama/ adventure. Our character, JJ, a young adult/teenager is from a working background. To make sure that JJ looked of this certain age, we chose Theo (Theo is 16) who is of a similar age to JJ. Teenagers of JJ’s age and his background are stereotypically reckless, rugged and mischievous, JJ fits into this stereotype very well. We porously paid lots of attention to the mise en scene and dress code JJ was wearing, because first impressions is everything, when it comes to someone judging, the people judging are the audience. The audiences first impressions should be that JJ is an irresponsible teenager. The first few shots of JJ are him lying on remote field, this gives the impression that he has been involved in some sort of anti social behavior, like drinking and doing drugs. His black eye and bruised face suggests that he has been beaten up and thrown into a field.
- 4. CODE AND CONVECTIONS OF THE TITLE. The first title shown on our film is the ident ‘Magnetic Productions’ I created this ident on Photoshop, Charlie further edited this on Premier Pro to create a wavy electric effect, in addition, Charlie added sound effects of electrics buzzing. The second title, is our film production company- Studio Canal. Studio Canal is a French film production and distribution company, it is the worlds third largest film library, its headquarters are in London. We decided to use Studio Canal as our production company because, it’s a typical film production for an English Film. The opening establishing shot, has a small one line stripe font. Through out the film, there are different names, for directors, costume designers and producers. We left the name (JJ) of the film near to the end our opening sequence. We decided to have this title on a transition because we wanted the audience to know both sides of the opening sequence, before and after he had taken drugs and been beaten up.
- 5. ESTABLISHING SHOTS Our opening shot is an establishing shot looking out onto the ocean, on a cliff edge. This is a particularly nice opening shot because of the contrast of dark colors like the sea and the cliffs surrounding the shores and the dirty white clouds up above. One nice aspect is that you can slowly see the light maneuver of the dark ocean. Using the rule of the thirds, the distant cliffs to the right of the shot is particularly pleasant on the eye. This opening shot introduces the setting of our opening sequence. Because of JJ background, we have set the town to
