The film A Clockwork Orange was set in a dystopian future where youth ran wild with no respect for elders. It depicted graphic violence like a group beating an old man to death. The media was shocked by the violent scenes and banned the film, fearing it would influence youth negatively. While the press gave it extremely negative reviews and worried it would increase violence and corruption among youth, the film's depiction of cliques and groups suggested youth were already dividing that way. Stan Cohen's theory of youth as "social deviants" who don't conform and his concept of "moral panic" fit this film, as the media stirred fears that youth would emulate the violent characters.

Evaluation 
The document discusses how the author's 2-minute film opening challenges and develops conventions of action/thriller genre films.
It shares themes of torture scenes and suspense with lack of dialogue seen in films like Taken, The Dark Knight, and The Bourne Identity. However, it challenges conventions by having a female antagonist rather than a male one, and using uncommon torture devices like an iron.
The film also represents particular social groups, including a strong female protagonist, the CIA's interrogation techniques using brutal torture, and a dark, secretive female antagonist dressed in dark, baggy clothes like in Clockwork Orange.
Moral panic
A moral panic occurs when a condition or group is seen as a threat to societal values. According to Stanley Cohen, creator of the term, a moral panic starts with some deviant act that is then amplified by the media. The film A Clockwork Orange was controversial upon its release due to high levels of violence portrayed by a gang of teenagers. There were reports of copycat crimes inspired by the film, though these may have been exaggerated by the media to generate controversy around the film. Stan Cohen's theory of moral panic seems applicable, as the media focused on relating extreme youth crimes to the film, though such issues may have predated the film as well.
Question 2
This document discusses how the short film "In Sheep's Clothing" represents two social groups - the mentally insane and the police/justice department. It depicts the mentally insane character as both dangerous/unpredictable, drawing on stereotypes, but also as a detective, challenging expectations. The police are represented through two detectives - one laid back but serious, the other indifferent. It aims to challenge stereotypes of both groups by having a mentally ill person as a heroic police officer, subverting expectations.
Group presentation draft 1 part 1
The document discusses plans for a group presentation on various topics. It includes a list of group members and their contributions. It also contains feedback on different potential documentary ideas, including portrayals of youth in media and films that could inspire their documentary project. The group settles on a plot about two days in the lives of teenagers in West London, inspired by films that realistically depict issues like drugs, gangs, and stereotypes faced by youth.
PR2 Audience theory and debate
The Fight Club film is about a man with insomnia who lives a boring routine life until he meets Tyler Durden. They form an underground fight club that grows into something more. The BBFC had concerns about the film's extreme violence, explicit scenes, and glorification of alcohol and suicide attempts. It was ultimately rated 18 after cuts were made.
Wells' Research & Cohen's Moral Panics
This is a slideshow showing Paul Well's audience theory, and Cohen's theory of moral panic, with examples of moral panics in the genre of horror.
Well’s research and Cohen’s moral panic
Wells conducted a small focus group study in 2000 involving horror film audiences of different age groups. He found that their interests and fears aligned with the real world horrors of their era. Older groups were less scared by graphic violence after experiencing World War 2, while younger groups were desensitized to gore from increased on-screen exposure. Cohen's theory of moral panic posits that the media can define certain groups as societal threats, influencing viewers. The film The Purge uses the moral panics of crime and gun control in America as sources of fear. More recent horror also taps into modern moral panics like online privacy issues in films like Unfriended.
Ethical Considerations for Visual Media Makers.pptx
This document discusses several ethical considerations for visual media makers regarding invasion of privacy, responsibility to subjects, use of graphic or staged photos/videos, and manipulation of images. It provides guidance from codes of ethics on getting consent from subjects, avoiding exploitation, providing context, not sensationalizing or stereotyping, and not digitally altering photos in a misleading way. Examples are given of controversies over graphic photos published without consent, a staged "milkman" photo from WWII, and darkened skin tone in OJ Simpson's mugshot on a magazine cover.

Toby shepherd evaluation 2
Toby Shepherd evaluates the representation of social groups in their media product. They represent race/ethnicity by including a black main character, which challenges stereotypes but also somewhat adheres to them through the character's use of a gun. Age is represented by a young, important detective character and an older police chief, challenging the idea that older people are more important but also adhering to it through the chief giving the detective orders. Gender is represented mainly through a single female character, adhering to patriarchal ideologies of seeing women as less important by only including one and having her harassed by male characters.
Wells' research & Cohen's moral panics
This document summarizes Paul Wells' research on horror film audiences from different age groups and Stanley Cohen's theory of "moral panics". Wells found that younger viewers are less easily scared due to their ability to spot unrealistic special effects. Cohen argued that the media can intensify societal fears through exaggerated reporting. Examples are given of horror films that played on contemporary moral panics over disease outbreaks and social media use. The conclusion is that while creating effective horror is challenging given audience skepticism, tapping into real-world fears can make the scares feel more personal.
Question three of media evaluation
This document discusses which film institution, either an independent one (Warp Films) or mainstream one (Warner Bros.), would be best suited to produce the author's suspense thriller film. The author argues that a mainstream institution like Warner Bros. would be preferable because their film does not focus deeply on social realism and has the expected themes for the genre. Warner Bros. has distributed similar suspense thriller films in the past. An independent film might approach the themes and content differently by taking a wider view of society beyond just the higher classes portrayed in the author's film.
Case study write_up[1]
Stanley Cohen studied a fight that broke out between youth groups at a beach in Clacton, England. He saw it as an ideal case study for his labeling theory approach. In his book "Folk Devils and Moral Panics", he analyzed exaggerated and distorted media reporting on the events, and how this amplified public fears and concern. Cohen defined "moral panic" as intense feelings in a population that something threatens societal values. He also discussed "deviance amplification", where increasing media coverage of antisocial behavior can lead to moral panics. Cohen's theory is relevant to analyzing negative press coverage of films like "A Clockwork Orange" that were accused of inspiring real-world violence among youth gang

ROSA PARKS
Rosa Parks' refusal to give up her bus seat to a white passenger triggered the Montgomery Bus Boycott and launched the modern Civil Rights Movement. On December 1, 1955, Parks was arrested for civil disobedience after refusing to relinquish her seat. Her act sparked outrage and organizing in the Black community. It brought national attention to Martin Luther King Jr and the boycott of Montgomery buses for over a year. Though Parks was tired after work, she said she was tired of giving in to unequal treatment. Her simple act of defiance won rights and dignity for Black people and inspired others to demand justice.

This document outlines a research project on the social realism genre and its impact on representations of teenagers in film. The research question asks to what extent the conventions of social realism allow for true representations of teenagers. The investigation will define social realism, examine its conventions, analyze films through a textual approach, consider stereotypical vs. counter-stereotypical representations, and explore audience responses and director intentions. The focus film is 2.37, which depicts dark themes of suicide and abuse in a documentary style. Supporting films include Kids and Fish Tank, which also portray teenagers in explicit, horrific ways not usually associated with them. Initial research has begun on social realism themes, stereotypes in "chick flicks,"
HOPE OR SILENCED? — HOW SOUTH KOREAN CINEMAS LAUNCH A FUTURE WITHOUT CHILD SE...
Although South Korean cinemas and shows are famous for their thoughtful social commentaries, they are often overlooked and regarded as simple commercial tools. Fortunately, in recent years, the movie Parasite and the Netflix show Squid Game have brought such a unique phenomenon in South Korea to the rest of the world. Other than social status, South Korean films often comment on child abuse, including domestic violence and sexual assault. Emerging as a tool to combat the lack of child protection laws in South Korea, directors and writers began and continue to carry the burden of seeking justice. This paper surveys several works of South Korean films focusing on child abuse to highlight how societies responded politically to films. The finding found that the combination of film techniques, Asian countries’ cinematic approach, and government reaction make South Korean social films unique in the world of cinematic arts.

1) The document discusses two models of how media affects audiences: the hypodermic syringe model and uses and gratification model. The hypodermic syringe model suggests media directly influences behavior through messages "injected" into passive audiences, while the uses and gratification model sees audiences as active users of media to fulfill various needs.
2) Examples are given of research linking media violence to real violence, such as Bandura's Bobo doll experiments and the James Bulger murder case. However, other research finds no link or that media can improve behaviors.
3) The effects of media discussed include desensitization, censorship, and how feminists link pornography to attitudes about violence against women, though views differ on

This document discusses a student's research and planning for creating a short film aimed at a teenage audience. The student conducted a questionnaire of their target 16-26 year old audience which found they prefer action/adventure films, are attracted to actors and storylines, enjoy both experimental and conventional films, prefer feel-good factors, and see music in films as important. The student analyzed similar films including Adulthood and Shank to understand conventions around representations of youth, moral panics, and genre. They chose to analyze the comedy Anuvahood as it provides a lighter perspective compared to more gritty films.

A2 presentation
The document discusses planning for a short film aimed at a teenage audience. Research was conducted through a questionnaire for 16-26 year olds to determine preferences like genre, attractiveness of films, and importance of music. Most preferred action/adventure films with feel-good factors and important soundtracks. Research of similar films showed representations of youths as violent and stereotypical "moral panics". The film will center on a character pursuing a music career who loses confidence but finds restoration through a chance encounter. Planning includes character profiles, a storyboard, and consideration of camera angles and music to set tone. Ancillary materials of a poster and magazine review will also be created.
Presentation script
Over the decades, films have typically represented teenagers using a few common stereotypes such as the jock, nerd, princess, bad boy, and social outcast. Films from the 1970s like Grease and 1980s films from John Hughes relied heavily on these stereotypes. More modern films like The DUFF are still largely defined by these tropes, though some like 13 Reasons Why show more diversity. The presentation analyzes how teenage representations have changed little over time but may be improving with new media formats exploring more variety in characters.
A2 presentation
This document discusses research being done to create a short film aimed at a teenage audience. It analyzes similar films to understand conventions and audience preferences. A questionnaire finds that the target audience likes action/adventure films with feel-good factors and important soundtracks. Research of films like Adulthood and Shank show their use of moral panic themes around youth and gangs. In contrast, the film Anuvahood takes a more lighthearted, comedic approach to these themes.
The hypodermic needle
The document discusses several theories of audience reception and interpretation of media:
1) The Hypodermic Needle Theory suggests audiences passively accept media messages without individual thought. Examples that supposedly supported this theory are cited.
2) The Uses and Gratifications Theory proposes audiences are active and seek diversion, social interaction, identity, and information from media to meet personal needs and desires.
3) Reception Theory argues audiences play an active role in interpreting media and different people can interpret the same media in different ways based on their own experiences and perspectives.
Audience Theory and Debates
The document discusses two films, Fight Club and Juno, in relation to audience theory and censorship debates. For Fight Club, it describes how the film was denied a 15 rating by the BBFC due to graphic violence, but received an 18 rating after cuts were made. It also discusses how the film was seen as potentially influencing viewers. For Juno, it describes how the film was initially denied a PG rating for language but ultimately received a 12A rating after cuts. It analyzes how different audiences may have had varying interpretations of the films.
Moodboard jerome
The document discusses the target audience for a film about cyber stalking. It will likely attract males aged 16 and up who enjoy thriller films similar to the one being created. Social media and technology are important to both the film and this audience. The goal is to raise awareness about stalking and help vulnerable people.
Trainspotting Trailer Analysis
The document analyzes a trailer for the film Trainspotting using various film theories. It discusses how the shots introduce protagonists and adhere to stereotypes about class, gender, and drug use. Various techniques like lighting and editing are examined in terms of how they promote violence and leave the audience with unanswered questions to encourage viewing the full film. Reception theory suggests a young British audience could relate to the themes but an older or worldwide audience may be less interested.
A2 presentation
The document discusses the planning process for a student's short film project aimed at a teenage audience. It details the student's research of similar films and audience preferences through a questionnaire. The student analyzes films with gritty urban themes but chooses to emulate the more lighthearted film Anuvahood that comically portrays youth culture.
Pr2 audience theory
The document discusses three audience theories: the hypodermic model, encoding and decoding theory, and uses and gratifications theory. It also summarizes a film analysis of the movie "Fight Club" and the results of a survey about audience responses to the film. The survey found that most respondents were young males who learned about the film from friends/family and had a preferred or negotiated reading of it based on their individual backgrounds and experiences. The document argues that encoding and decoding theory best explains how audiences make sense of media texts in different ways.
Film studies
This document outlines a research project on the impact of social realism in constructing counter-stereotypical representations of teenagers in film. The researcher will analyze conventions of social realism and how they are used in films like 2.37, Kids, and Fish Tank to portray teenagers in a more realistic, and sometimes extreme, manner compared to stereotypical representations. Key scenes from these films that show dark or horrific aspects of teenage life will be examined. Primary research on audience responses to counter-stereotypical versus stereotypical teen representations is also planned, though the method is still uncertain. Issues identified include the project scope being too broad and uncertainty around relevant primary research approaches.

This presentation was provided by Steph Pollock of The American Psychological Association’s Journals Program, and Damita Snow, of The American Society of Civil Engineers (ASCE), for the initial session of NISO's 2024 Training Series "DEIA in the Scholarly Landscape." Session One: 'Setting Expectations: a DEIA Primer,' was held June 6, 2024.LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Historical case study: A Clockwork Orange
- 1. Historical Case Study: A Clockwork Orange 1.Discuss the background to the film. . The film is set in a dystopian future in which the young run riot and have no respect for their elders. The film has many references to drugs and violence such as during the opening sequence in which a group of youths beat an old homeless man to death. This event is still referenced to by the media when crimes of this particular manner are committed. The media at the time of the films release were shocked and thought that this scene and many other violent scenes in the film would cause copycat crimes and influence the younger generations in a negative way. The only issue is that the film didn’t show the way the world could be, it showed the way that it was but in a different way. The film got such a negative view from the press that it was banned by its own director, (Stanley Kubrick). 2.How was the film reported by the press and how did the youths of the time relate to the film? . The film got an extremely negative review from the press due to the adult nature of the film. They thought that the adult themes would influence violence and corruption in young people and cause them to join gangs and act in a way that the characters in the film do. I don’t think that the youths at the time of the films release were really affected as there were already specific groups and cliques, which the youths could be referred to. The film merely shows that in a different setting with a few more adult themes which is what got the media so wound as to create a moral panic. 3.How can Stan Cohen’s theory be related to this film? . Stan Cohen’s theory can be related here as it shows the younger generation as ‘Social Deviants’ or people who don’t conform to the ways that a normal society should act. It shows young people as being violent and aggressive. Also it applies to his theory of ‘Moral Panic’ due to the fact that after the films release the media got people so wound up and afraid of young people as they thought that they would be influenced by the characters in the film and start acting in the same anti-social manner.
