The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.

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.
2. FILMING – DAY 1
3rd December 2015
We had taken shots of the classroom scene on this day. We had
filmed the close up shots of Rayne on this day, and the mid shot of
the classroom, where the children were running around with Rayne in
the background.
We thought we would have needed extra lighting to make it high key,
however the lighting was already quite bright in that classroom so
there was no need for extra equipment, with the assistance of Movie
Studio Platinum, I was able to make it even brighter.
A problem while filming this was consistency. We had taken the
establishing shot of the classroom, however it got deleted, so we had
to create room for a second time to film.
3. Some of the shots taken and used in the
film on Day 1
4. FILMING – DAY 2
10th December 2015
We filmed two different scenes on the second day of filming, this was the bedroom scene and the
retaken shots of the classroom scene. We split the day into two and gave a scene to each time of the
day. In the afternoon, we shot the classroom scene, while in the evening, we shot the bedroom scene.
Even though the concept of the bedroom scene is meant to be set in the morning to signify a school
morning, we did it in the evening because as long as the blinds for the windows are closed, no one
can see the time of day. Some of the shots are meant to be dark because of the emotion of the
characters anyways. The use of extra lighting assisted us in the establishment of the time of day,
however it also came to our disadvantage because in some areas, the lighting equipment was in the
shot, or there would be unattractive shadows. So we scrapped the footage and rescheduled for
another day.
One of the problems being consistency occurred a lot when filming, but were easily dealt with. there
was an issue in brining in the same actors from the first shooting; there were no male actors on the
second day so I fixed it by filming from certain angles and using editing to create a lagging effect to
show that with time they moved away from the girls, and by fixing the sounds to seem as if they were
there. We also had to make Rayne look the same as the first day of filming, which was quite difficult.
Luckily, on the second day of filming, the classroom looked the same.
We also added a new shot of the gossiping girls, however forgot the extreme close up shot and
establishing shot for the bedroom scene, so we had to schedule for a new day to film them.
5. Added classroom shot
taken on day 2.
The light was
in the shot
and the
location of the
source of light
was obvious,
so this shot
was scrapped.
6. FILMING – DAY 3
11th December 2015
On this day, we had shot the woods scene. We were unable to go to the
woods in Lincolnshire because of safety issues and parental consent for our
younger actress, so we filmed it in the garden (just like how ‘Titanic’ was
shot in a swimming pool, rather than a real ocean).
This was difficult because even though we started filming it at 4pm it was
already getting dark that time of day, so we had to rush filming so that the
video is clear and still makes it clear to the audience that the time of day we
had in mind was early evening/late afternoon. Another problem we came
across was trying to get the view of the school, greenhouse, cars and nearby
house.
Filming that day was very difficult according to safety, the ground was a bit
muddy and slippery and twigs were obstructing the path most of the time.
We also wanted to bring extra lighting outside, until we noticed there was no
7. Some frames remained unused because
of irregular obstructions which do not
usually belong in forests.
9. FILMING – DAY 4
15th December 2015
This day we reshot the bedroom scene. This was because the shots taken in Day 2 had too many
mistakes which could not be covered up.
Too avoid repetition of the same errors, we changed the lighting equipment and placed it in a
different area. Doing this, we created more tasteful looking shadows on the wall as they laughed.
However we had too rush the scene because the light we used started to create a burning scent, and
to be safe we had to quickly finish filming. The room was also getting rather hot because of the light,
so the actresses were getting uncomfortable.
While filming, I noticed I had a dustbin in the shot. Normally, I would have filmed the shot again in
order to avoid the dustbin being in the shot, but it later occurred to me that I can use it to my
advantage in a way that it can help me establish Rayne’s social class.
We encountered a new problem when filming, we noticed the characters do not look the same as
before, so in order to keep consistency I had to scrap the old footage and create a new one that day,
so unfortunately, filming went longer than expected. For example: the actress playing Rayne had a
cold during the retakes of the bedroom scene and the actress playing her grandmother was wearing a
completely different outfit during the retakes. Rayne was wearing leggings under her school uniform
which was not appropriate for her role, and we didn’t have time for her to change, so when shooting
the mid/two-shot I avoided the legs, but before we shot the establishing shot (where her legs had to
show) I filmed her putting her school blazer over her knees to cover the leggings. This way we kept
consistency.
11. EDITING – FOOTAGE
We had arranged the frames in Movie Studio Platinum and used
different transitions to piece them together. We had added effects
and filters/brightness to the footage to edit mistakes and create the
atmosphere in mind. This took 3 weeks to perfect.
12. From the raw footage into
an edited production. I
had added brightness
and trimmed the frame.
13. EDITING – TITLING
The first bit of editing we had done was use Photoshop to create the
production studio logo, film title, and the titling – this took 2 days to
finalise and complete.
15. EDITING – MUSIC & SOUND
The sounds were edited in areas where it was either too loud, or
something was said when not meant to be said, or where sounds did
not blend in with each other, or extraneous noises interfered. The
frames where the non-diegetic sounds were muted were overpowered
by the diegetic music I edited in. I put in 4 different tracks of diegetic
music; one for the production studio music, one for bedroom and
classroom scene, the sound of the school bell, and the last being the
music after Rayne put on the ring.
16. Contolling the diegetic and non-digetic sounds, with ‘fade in and
out’,’ ‘gain,’ and increase and reductions in volume. The non diegetic
music are the last 3 rows while the others are diegetic.
