Film opening idea 4
The document proposes a film opening in 3 parts:
1) Brief establishing shots of dark, lonely woods to set an ominous atmosphere. Sound of heavy breathing and hitting build tension.
2) A tracking shot follows a blood trail to a mysterious figure holding a hammer, breathing heavily. Close-ups establish his threatening appearance.
3) A news report reveals a 5-year serial killer case before cutting to the protagonist's home, showing their investigation into the killer through maps, articles and journals on the walls. Slow, dark music builds throughout.
Film opening 4
The document proposes a film opening involving establishing shots of dark, lonely woods not central to the film's narrative. This is meant to set an ominous atmosphere and connote the protagonist's dark personality. The opening then shows a tracking shot of a blood trail leading to a figure holding a hammer, breathing heavily. Close-ups establish the mysterious character and create tension. A POV shot looks down at a body, then up at the figure's eyes. Text reads "48 hours earlier" before cutting to a news report on a serial killer active for 5 years. Shots of the protagonist's home play over credits, showing news articles, a journal, maps with pin locations, and possibly weapons. Sound and lighting aim to build mystery
Generic conventions of horror
The opening scene of The Woman in Black establishes an eerie atmosphere through its use of generic horror conventions. We see three young girls playing with dolls accompanied by unsettling music, foreshadowing danger. Their strange behavior and a mysterious figure in black hook the audience to learn more. Iconography like screaming and the veil associated with death effectively set the horror tone for the film. The target audience is likely those 25 and under who enjoy horror genres, and the film attracted viewers through its young actors like Daniel Radcliffe from Harry Potter.
Seductive Design
In the dating game of the web, you need more than just a pretty (inter)face and a winning smile. You need to woo your users in a complex ritual of seduction and delight. Only then will you win their hearts, minds and registration details. Sadly, too many sites focus purely on the chase, adding each new conquest into their little black book of registered users (moleskines presumably) before moving on to their next victim.
While one-night log-ins can be exciting, they aren't particularly satisfying. It's the quality rather than quantity of your relationships that count. A truly meaningful relationship takes time, understanding and sacrifice. The best relationships are born from a sense of shared ideals; they are supportive, caring and fun.
Using examples from the real world, this session will look at the various tips, tricks and techniques you can use to make your users fall in love with your product or service. So dim the lights, put Barry White on the stereo and get ready for a lesson in the fine art of user seduction.

Media - Television and postmodernism
This document provides an analysis of the sitcom The Big Bang Theory through a postmodern lens. It summarizes that the show utilizes many postmodern features such as intertextual references that require audience knowledge, meta-narratives through standalone episodes, and playfulness. It also analyzes the show's frequent references to other pop culture works like Star Trek, Harry Potter, Doctor Who, and Dexter's Laboratory. Gender representations are also discussed, such as stereotypes about women's driving abilities but contrasts in representations of intelligence among male and female characters.

It encourages analyzing movies by considering the plot structure, story philosophy, and nature of the conflict.
Fanfiction vs the Status Quo
Fanfiction has existed as long as storytelling in various forms throughout history. In the 1960s, science fiction fans published fanzines, which were magazines copied by hand or with a mimeograph that circulated fanfiction among hundreds of readers. Now in the digital age, fanfiction reaches wide audiences through websites but is considered derivative works under US copyright law. However, some authors argue the distinction between fanfiction and other fictional works that expand on existing characters and worlds is often just a matter of commercial success and respectability rather than creative differences.
There and Back Again: Tales of Fanfiction from the English Classroom
This talk explores the use of fanfiction, writing that recycles and reimagines existing characters and storylines from books, movies and television, as a pedagogical tool in the English classroom to bridge both literary and language learning. It follows the implementation of The Blogging Hobbit, a task-based fanfiction project based on Tolkien’s The Hobbit, that was carried out as part of a course for students in a teacher education program at Malmö University and explores the outcomes and challenges that emerged.
The Quality of Writing in Blog-Based Fanfiction for Language Learning

Editor's Notes
- A piece of fiction within a fandom utilizing characters and situations from a pre-existing work including (but not limited to) books, television programs, films, and comic strips. Typically separated into het, slash, and general genres. Often used to play out AU scenarios and/or various romantic pairings not found in the original work. Distributed via mailing lists, blogs, and zines. Heavily archived online
- 1960.

- A story might start out normal and quickly turn into a porn plot without noticeUnless you really want to know, don’t search for it.Be Cautious!!! If you thought about it there’s a fanfic for it!
- Bad fanfiction: Common IdentifiersBad spelling, overused trope, high school setting, college setting, first person, next generation, mary sues, oc, crossovers, timetravel
- Beta-reading, commenting, community support, good commenters bad commenters, flames, original author supportI just wrote and deleted a long note on the utter arrogance of telling your readers you are not interested in useful feedback and growth as a writer, yet still begging for reviews. It has been replaced by this short comment. The A/N is very off-putting and dashes any actual interest in the following story itself. Please note: not one word about style or grammar was said here
- seen as gaps or excesses in the unfolding of the story: that is, they introduce potential plots which can not be fully told or extra details which hint at more than can be revealed. Readers, thus, have a strong incentive to continue to elaborate on these story elements, working them over through their speculations, until they take on a life of their own. Fan fiction can be seen as an unauthorized expansion of these media franchises into new directions which reflect the reader's desire to "fill in the gaps" they have discovered in the commercially produced material.
