Codes and Conventions: Thriller Genre
Thriller films employ certain cinematography, editing, sound, and character conventions to build suspense and tension. Cinematography includes quick cuts during action and prolonged shots to increase tension, while editing may sequence events non-linearly. Soundtracks are important to set the tone and emphasize emotions, and characters usually include a determined protagonist against a mysterious antagonist intent on harming them or what they represent.
The format of a screenplay
1) A screenplay is a technical document that tells a story in pictures through sluglines, action, character names, and dialogue. It provides instructions for what the audience will see on screen.
2) The key elements of a screenplay are the slugline, action, character names, and dialogue. A slugline indicates interior or exterior location and time. Action describes what is happening visually. Character names appear in all caps above dialogue.
3) Dialogue is indented and follows rules of capitalization. It has no quotation marks unless quoting another character. A new slugline is needed for a new scene in a different location or time.

2 point perspective lesson
This document provides instruction on how to create a two-point perspective drawing. It defines key terms like horizon line, vanishing point, and orthogonal line. The steps outlined are to first draw the horizon line where the sky meets the ground, then select two vanishing points on the horizon line where parallel lines appear to converge. Orthogonal lines are then drawn from corners of an object to the vanishing points to establish perpendicular lines going into the distance. Students are assigned to complete a two-point perspective cityscape drawing with labeled horizon line and vanishing point including at least 4 buildings, windows, and doors.
The artisan a_sustainable_entrepreneur_1
This document discusses artisans as sustainable entrepreneurs in Malta. It aims to show that artisans can be sustainable entrepreneurs, identify threats and challenges they face, and make recommendations to safeguard their survival. Artisans are skilled people who create functional or aesthetic items mainly through manual labor. They can be sustainable entrepreneurs by using local materials and skills, reducing waste, and selling crafts. However, artisans in Malta face challenges like unfair competition, lack of support, and tourism fluctuations. Recommendations include certifying genuine crafts, promoting them to Maltese buyers, and creating favorable conditions for artisans.
Perspective drawing 1 point a
The document discusses one-point perspective in Renaissance art. During this time period, artists became interested in creating the illusion of three-dimensional depth in two-dimensional paintings. They used mathematics and observation to develop the technique of linear perspective, which uses vanishing points and orthogonal lines to trick the eye into seeing depth on a flat surface. One-point perspective involves drawing all lines to converge at a single vanishing point located on the horizon line, creating the illusion of objects receding into the distance.
One and Two- Point Perspective
This document discusses one-point and two-point perspective techniques in art. One-point perspective uses a single vanishing point to draw lines converging to create the illusion of depth. Two-point perspective uses two vanishing points, with lines drawn from shapes to each point. The document provides step-by-step instructions for creating basic one-point and two-point perspective drawings, explaining how to place shapes, draw orthogonal lines to vanishing points, and add parallel lines and shading to depict three-dimensional forms.

Film lighting, light and colour part 2
Film lighting and color can be used to create different moods and effects. The temperature of light can vary from cool blues and grays for somber scenes to warm pinks and golds for romantic scenes. Cinematographers use filters and digital manipulation to adjust colors. Whole films are sometimes desaturated in post-production to achieve a particular look, as with O Brother, Where Art Thou? which was given an old, dusty look. Spot lighting, backlighting, and directional light can also create dramatic effects and silhouettes that impact the audience. Occasionally black and white is used instead of color for specific artistic reasons.
