This document analyzes several horror film posters. It discusses elements like fonts, colors, images, and text placement that are commonly used in horror posters to convey a sense of darkness, suspense, and impending threat. Specific techniques examined include a blurred title to draw focus, hidden details that become creepier upon closer inspection, and isolation of characters within the frame. The goal of these poster designs is to captivate viewers and draw in target audiences of seasoned horror fans through familiar tropes and techniques.

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.
The French Revolution, which began in 1789, was a period of radical social and political upheaval in France. It marked the decline of absolute monarchies, the rise of secular and democratic republics, and the eventual rise of Napoleon Bonaparte. This revolutionary period is crucial in understanding the transition from feudalism to modernity in Europe.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel.

This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

How to Create Map Views in the Odoo 17 ERPCeline George
The map views are useful for providing a geographical representation of data. They allow users to visualize and analyze the data in a more intuitive manner.
1. Horror Film Poster Analysis 1 world of the actors or even
from their own view (handheld
camerawork etc). It’s in this
captivation that we, as
viewers, are most vulnerable to
‘being scared’ due to being so
heavily invested that we deem
it real enough to be horrified.
The fonts themselves are all
serif, possibly representing a
more serious approach to
horror rather than say a
comedic horror film. The film
possibly aims to appeal to the
target audience of more
seasoned horror fans, as the
header of the poster reads
‘From the producer of
‘Paranormal Activity’ and
‘Insidious’, possibly to bring in
some viewers of the directors
previous work. Below the title
written quite small reads ‘Once
you see him, nothing can save
you’. Then upon closer
inspection of the blood in the
poster a pair of eyes can
faintly be seen, a clever use of
linking the main image and
title together quite creepily.
When looking at the colour
scheme of the poster, the
overall theme is a dull, cracked
grey with black and white fonts
which contrasts to the main
image of the poster showing a
woman dragging blood across
the wall. These colours
connote two possible things,
one being to divert focus to
the bloody aspect of the
poster hinting that the film
could be gory as an oppose to
other films of the horror genre.
The other thing that the colours
connote is an overall darkness
often present in horror films. The
poster ‘screams’ horror just in
the way the text and images
are presented to the viewer.
For example, the main title is
blurred and similar to the
background, which somewhat
makes you focus more on it as
an oppose to if the title was
bigger, bold and brighter in
colour. Part of watching a
horror film is about being
captivated in it, whether
you’re being placed within the
2. Horror Film Poster Analysis 2 the title in that the person
featured in it could have a
demon inside him trying to get
out or control it. A common
fear is things in every day life,
closer to home fears and add
to realism within the horror
genre to make events happen
in the film far more realistic,
despite often being fictional.
The header at the top of the
page says ‘based on a true
story’, whether this is true or not
is another story but the fact still
lies that often 21st century
horror films play on truth and
reality rather than fictional
mutants and monsters of
previous horror genres. This
leads onto the potential target
audience of a film like this,
possibly more seasoned horror
fans that have seen other films
by the same directors or of the
same genre. Based on the shot
of the main image, colour
scheme and the way it’s
presented to the reader you
can instantly connote that the
film is from the genre of horror.
The main image of this horror
film poster consumes the vast
majority of space on the poster
so it would be difficult to miss
the malevolence it shows, as a
hand leaves the mouth of the
character and clings to its face
using a relatively close up shot.
This main image links well to
the phrase reading ‘darkness
lives inside’ found above the
footer and beneath the main
title. Like most horror films, the
background, font and colours
of these are uninteresting often
dull greys blacks and whites
possibly to distinguish the
image from the rest of the
darkness that often resides in
horror films. Colour albeit lack
of plays an important part in
posters, especially of the horror
genre. Judging by the page
layout, it appears to be typical
of the horror genre. Smaller
main titles, larger moderately
disturbing images relating to
the content of the film, if it’s a
slasher of subgenre etc. One
connotation is that it links to
3. Horror Film Poster Analysis 3 horror films, suspense. All font
on the page is in white,
possibly to contrast best from
all the darkness in the
background but as with most
horror film posters, the font isn’t
really ‘in your face’ so to
speak, possibly, done to focus
view onto the image. When
looking at the target audience
for a poster like this, again
you’d expect more seasoned
horror fans to watch it, as at
the top it says ‘From the
director of Saw and Insidious’,
both films at the pinnacle of
the genre of torture films both
physical and mental torment.
The layout applies to common
convention of horror film
posters also, in the way that
the image is in the centre and
small headers, titles and footers
are above and below. The
image either fills the full size of
the poster or is smaller and is
also slightly offset to give
perspective, either against a
wall or in a corner like this one,
almost isolating the characters.
The third poster example I’ve
chosen to analyse is possibly
my favourite. The lacklustre of
the colour scheme and the
dreary, dull, black-saturated
background just scream
impending darkness. The main
image shows a long shot of a
girl and a doll in a rocking
chair, an age old horror prop
that remains iconic scary to this
day, possibly due to the slow
effortless motion of the chair
a n d s o m e t h i n g o f t e n
associated. The girl is facing
the other way but the doll
looks towards the viewer as a
direct mode of address. This
isn’t noticed at first but on
closer focus it is. This is a
common trend of horror film
posters, there’s a lot of hidden
detail as by looking at the
poster generally the intrinsic
horror doesn't look too obvious.
It’s captivating, the longer
you’ve spent looking the more
suspense you’re under despite
the fact that it’s a static print
image. This is a key element of
