This document provides details about a proposed film called "Adventure for the Amulet". It includes a synopsis of the plot which follows a group of teenage friends who go on an adventure to find an ancient amulet that has been stolen and is causing curses. It describes the key characters, target teenage and family audience, and intent to emulate the style of 1980s adventure films like "The Goonies". Distribution is envisioned through shops, streaming services, and as part of a collection.
The film is a 5-10 minute short about a man named Michael who is mistaken for a bank robber and kidnapped by a criminal trying to be released from prison. Michael's friend Theo is taken hostage to lure him to a garage. When Michael arrives, a fight ensues between him and the criminal. Michael emerges victorious without killing the criminal, and they discover the real bank robber, clearing Michael's name. The target audience is males aged 16-25, and the film will have a typical color palette and cinematography style.
The document discusses choosing the right music for a school radio advertisement to fit the target audience and inspire them to attend the school. It considers four potential music tracks for lower school, upper school, or both. For lower school, one track is upbeat but may be too fast-paced, while another has a good flow but could also be too fast. For upper school, one track starts slow but picks up, though the start doesn't set the right tone, and another has consistent beat but risks becoming boring.
The survey results showed that most respondents were male, younger in age from working class backgrounds. The majority had seen The Force Awakens and previous Star Wars films. Han Solo was the most popular character, likely due to his appearance in older beloved films. Many watched Star Wars due to recommendations from parents and for entertainment. While some spent no money, others spent up to £200 monthly on merchandise. Overall, most preferred the older film trilogies.
This document provides information and tasks for learners completing an assignment on analysing media products and audiences. It includes:
- General information on assignment requirements and guidelines.
- A scenario asking learners to create an online educational resource focusing on Disney and the film The Force Awakens (2015).
- Five tasks involving researching Disney Studios, analyzing a trailer for The Force Awakens, profiling the target audience, creating a timeline of the film's production/distribution/advertising, and exploring the legal/ethical issues.
This document outlines a 14-week schedule of tasks and activities for an advertising campaign project divided into weekly periods from April 3rd to June 3rd 2019. It includes learning outcomes such as researching an existing campaign, developing a group campaign proposal, creating pre-production materials like treatment, script, and production plan, delivering a presentation in week 4, producing an advertisement in week 5, and writing a final evaluation in week 14.
The document outlines plans for two advertisements - one for the lower school and one for the sixth form of Ringwood School.
The sixth form ad will be 40 seconds long and feature student testimonials promoting the school's success rates and upcoming open evening. The lower school ad will be shorter at 30 seconds and use rhetorical questions to highlight the school's facilities and extracurricular opportunities before promoting the open evening.
Both ads aim to appeal to their target audiences - wealthy 16-year-olds interested in their future for the sixth form and middle-class parents wanting a good education for their children in the lower school. The production plans to record on location at the school's facilities to stay within the £2000 budget.
The document outlines a production schedule for recording radio advertisements at Ringwood School to promote the year 7 program and sixth form. It details the date, location, description, safety considerations, and equipment needed for the recordings. The schedule then lists the tasks, including setting up the recording equipment, recording two ads for year 7 and sixth form while allowing time for mistakes, packing up, and later editing the ads and adding background music on a computer.
Ringwood Sixth Form is a school that offers opportunities for students after completing their GCSEs, including a 99% pass rate for A-Levels, 97% of students being offered their first choice university, and being rated in the top 16% of providers nationally. The school encourages students to search their website, Ringwoodsixthform, for more information on how it can help them move forward after finishing their GCSEs.
The document identifies several risks associated with recording an advertisement for a school in either an on-site studio room or off-site location. It rates each risk on a scale from 1 to 5, with 5 being the highest. It then provides solutions to mitigate each risk, such as ensuring wires are safely secured and tested, maintaining clear pathways free of clutter, addressing temperature concerns, and taking precautions with audio volume. Contacts are identified for notifying parents of any off-site filming locations.
A speaker promotes Ringwood School as a top choice for high school, noting that it is rated in the top ten schools in the country with outstanding exam results. The school offers endless extra-curricular activities from tennis to swimming. Students are supported by award-winning teachers who are always available to help students achieve their best. Interested parents are encouraged to visit the school or check its website for more information on open days.
The document discusses potential locations to record an advertisement. It examines three options:
1) A radio station room at Ringwood School which is quiet with good acoustics but lacks chairs and microphones.
2) A larger room also at Ringwood School with more space and equipment like a TV but no microphones.
3) The basement studio in Wimborne, which has professional recording tools and equipment, is open 24 hours, but can be pricey. It would provide a professional quality for the advert.
One potential issue with using vox pops in advertising is copyright infringement if copyrighted material is used without permission. Another issue is that people in vox pops may say something controversial that negatively impacts public welfare. Additionally, permission must be obtained from all individuals featured in vox pops, sometimes requiring signed release forms.

In the rapidly evolving landscape of technologies, XML continues to play a vital role in structuring, storing, and transporting data across diverse systems. The recent advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) present new methodologies for enhancing XML development workflows, introducing efficiency, automation, and intelligent capabilities. This presentation will outline the scope and perspective of utilizing AI in XML development. The potential benefits and the possible pitfalls will be highlighted, providing a balanced view of the subject.
We will explore the capabilities of AI in understanding XML markup languages and autonomously creating structured XML content. Additionally, we will examine the capacity of AI to enrich plain text with appropriate XML markup. Practical examples and methodological guidelines will be provided to elucidate how AI can be effectively prompted to interpret and generate accurate XML markup.
Further emphasis will be placed on the role of AI in developing XSLT, or schemas such as XSD and Schematron. We will address the techniques and strategies adopted to create prompts for generating code, explaining code, or refactoring the code, and the results achieved.
The discussion will extend to how AI can be used to transform XML content. In particular, the focus will be on the use of AI XPath extension functions in XSLT, Schematron, Schematron Quick Fixes, or for XML content refactoring.
The presentation aims to deliver a comprehensive overview of AI usage in XML development, providing attendees with the necessary knowledge to make informed decisions. Whether you’re at the early stages of adopting AI or considering integrating it in advanced XML development, this presentation will cover all levels of expertise.
By highlighting the potential advantages and challenges of integrating AI with XML development tools and languages, the presentation seeks to inspire thoughtful conversation around the future of XML development. We’ll not only delve into the technical aspects of AI-powered XML development but also discuss practical implications and possible future directions.

FADE IN:
SCENE 1 – SERIES OF SHOTS.
A) MICHAEL, a male in his early 20s and a trained martial
artist and attends classes every week. Decent social
class as well. MICHAEL appears just out of the house
and then starts to walk over to the pub to meet up
with his best friend THEO. MICHAEL makes sure that he
hasn’t forgotten his wallet and valuables before he
closes the door.
B) MICHAEL is seen walking past his local shops on his
way to the pub.
C) MICHAEL is waiting by a main road stop and then
advances across the road safely once he has looked
both ways.
D) MICHAEL is seen walking into the pub to meet his
friend THEO.
SCENE 2 - INT. LOCAL PUB. DAY.
MICHAEL walks into the pub, the pub is old-fashioned, 17th
century to be precise, with low hanging ceilings that only
mean that his head can just fit in without him having to
duck. He enters through the main entrance and then sees the
bar, with a wide selection of ales and bitters that he can
choose from. MICHAEL walks through the main entrance and
straight ahead is THEO.
THEO, a male in his 20s and quite well kept with nice
clothes and is of a decent social class.
MICHAEL walks up to the bar and takes a seat next to THEO.
MICHAEL
(Sits down)
You just finished work?
THEO
Yeah. Got busy today. Couldn’t sit on my
arse all day.

MICHAEL
Alright. I just feel like they’re teaching
me the same things over and over.
THEO (CONFUSED)
Why don’t you just go to another dojo?
The bartender places the pint on the bar.
MICHAEL
No good ones near. I’d have to drive about
40 minutes in order to get to a decent
one. I’m nearly black belt, and I haven’t
learnt anything of use since I was a
yellow belt… just enhancing my old skills.
THEO
Yeah don’t bother transferring to a new
one. You have basically got all the skills
you need.
MICHAEL
True.
MICHAEL and THEO sip their drinks and they hear the faint
sounds of police sirens in the background and see the red
and blue light faintly in the window.
THEO (CONFUSED)
Wait, why is there police in the car park?
And there is a lot of them as well.

Unless you’ve robbed a bank or something.
(laughs)
THEO
Shut up. This could be serious.
MICHAEL
Alright. Way to ruin the mood.
Police storm through the door of the pub.
POLICEMAN (SHOUTING)
Put your hands in the air where I can see
them!
Michael, Theo and the Bartender all put their hands in the
air, confused as to what is going on.
MICHAEL (WORRIED)
Who are you speaking to?
POLICEMAN (SHOUTING)
You. Now keep your hands in the air!
MICHAEL
I haven’t done anything wrong, so what’s
the point of me putting my hands in the
air?
POLICEMAN
Right then. Looks like we are going to
have to do it the hard way.
MICHAEL and the group of policemen start to fight, fending
off a group of four policeman. They start throwing punches
at him. MICHAEL uses his reflexes and what he has learnt in
martial arts to defend himself. MICHAEL manages to get one
guy into a headlock and bang his head against the bar,

knocking him out. MICHAEL starts to get tired but the
adrenaline kicks in. The thought that he doesn’t want to go
to jail for something he didn’t do races through his mind.
MICHAEL manages to knock out another police officer with a
swift punch and then in a split-second, ducks another hook.
MICHAEL then uppercuts the police officer attempting the
hook and kicks him relentlessly until he goes unconscious.
Staggering back, MICHAEL shouts as he charges into the
final policeman, shoving him against the wall. MICHAEL runs
out of the door worried just in case something happens.
THEO, shocked and perplexed, looks at all of the policeman
knocked out and lying on the floor.
THEO
(Looking at the bodies)
What in the actual fuck just happened?
BARTENDER (ANNOYED)
What did he just do? Does he realise that
we are gonna be in the shit for that?
THEO
He was just trying to defend himself.
BARTENDER
They are police though. You shouldn’t
harass the authorities like that.
SCENE 3 - SERIES OF SHOTS:
A) MICHAEL starts running back home and there is a series
of shots of him running back after the incident with
the police.
B) MICHAEL is starting to get really exhausted after all
the fighting that has just occurred and we can see
that with his facial expression.
C) MICHAEL continues to run across the road not paying
attention to any of the cars. Luckily it ends up being
safe.
D) Then MICHAEL takes the more secret route back to his
home through a private estate so that he doesn’t get
caught by extra police that could have been sent out.

MICHAEL rushes into the house then to see his parents sat
on the couch worried to why he has come back so abruptly.
MOTHER, a woman of her mid-40s wearing typically
comfortable clothes and dressing gowns since she always
likes to stay cozy.
FATHER, also in his 40s and is of a high social class and
is the typical dad. He usually wears a shirt with jumper
over it, boots and then a pair of boot-cut jeans.
MOTHER (WORRIED)
Is everything okay?
MICHAEL
No, it’s not Mum, the police just tried to
arrest me.
FATHER
For what? What did you do?
MICHAEL
Nothing!
MOTHER
Something must be wrong. Come and sit
down. You are safe here.
MICHAEL, the MOTHER and the FATHER start to watch the news
and then they notice that the story that comes on is based
in the town that they live in, so they continue to watch.
The TV is focused on in the shot and then there is a zoom
in to a cut of the new studio.
SCENE 5 - INT. NEWS STUDIO. DAY.

to a local pub only to fight policemen and
run away. Other police have reported to
stay aware of the criminal out there
before he does anything else and if you
see him be sure to report his whereabouts.
SCENE 6 - INT. MICHAEL’S HOUSE. DAY.
Cut to MICHAEL’s house where he appears to be shocked and
surprised about how he has been mistaken for a criminal and
the police have got something wrong for once all along.
MICHAEL (SHOCKED)
No way.
(Pauses)
They have mistaken me for someone else.
And now I’m going to jail.
MOTHER (CALM)
You are not going to go to jail. They
won’t get you!
MICHAEL
Well what if they do find me? They are not
going to consider that they have got the
wrong guy. Police are always right in
their eyes.
MOTHER
Just relax in your room with the blinds
closed and chill out. We’ll look out.
He walks up the stairs to his bedroom.
SCENE 7 - INT. BEDROOM. DAY.
MICHAEL enters his bedroom, he immediately shuts the door.
MICHAEL’s room is relatively big, with a matching colour
desk and wardrobe to the right of the door. MICHAEL’s bed
is placed to the left wall directly next to his window and
he has a TV directly in front of it along with his chest of
drawers and his light. MICHAEL then also has a bedside
table as well off to the right of his bed.

Inside the police meeting room, they bring in one of their
criminals, a kidnapper that has been imprisoned for
kidnapping over 30 people throughout his life time. The
CRIMINAL has learnt that what he has done is wrong and
wants to escape as soon as possible. The MAIN POLICE
OFFICER sits CRIMINAL down with his handcuffs on and then
tries to make an agreement with him.
MAIN POLICE OFFICER
You know why I have bought you here today?
CRIMINAL (AGGRESSIVELY)
I don’t know. You tell me.
MAIN POLICE OFFICER
We seriously need your help.
CRIMINAL
Fuck off, not helping you. Nothing is init
for me.
MAIN POLICE OFFICER
How about you let us explain it first
before you get aggy.
CRIMINAL
What then?
MAIN POLICE OFFICER
We are looking for a criminal. Someone who
escaped and knocked out four of our best
officers and we can’t see to track him
down. We lack the skills.
CRIMINAL
And you are asking a criminal about this.

guy, we’ll set you free. Doesn’t matter
how you do it, just bring him back in one
piece. Deal?
CRIMINAL
Fine!
MAIN POLICE OFFICER
You can leave now.
He is freed from his handcuffs and escorted out of the
room.
SCENE 9 - EXT. THEO’S HOUSE. NIGHT.
Outside THEO’s house. CRIMINAL looks around for some keys
to see if he can get into the door. CRIMINAL checks all of
the crevices and secret areas of the drive to find that
THEO has left the key placed in the lavender plant. As
quiet as possible, CRIMINAL places the key in the lock and
then turns the lock. CRIMINAL then quietly opens the door
trying not to make a noise and then steps inside.

SCENE 11 - INT. THEO’S GARAGE. DAY.
THEO has been tied up in his own garage and is worried and
scared about what is going to happen to him. The CRIMINAL
is about to interrogate him.
The garage is quite messy and unorganized with things lying
around everywhere, however it is quite spacious so you are
able to be productive in the space that there is.
CRIMINAL
Where is he?
THEO
Where is who?
CRIMINAL
You know who…
THEO
No I seriously don’t.
CRIMINAL

thin. Because, you will know where he is.
Won’t you.
THEO
I’m not going to tell you anything.
CRIMINAL
Maybe you will when I show you this.
CRIMINAL pulls out a knife and threatens THEO with it.
THEO (SCARED)
(quickly)
Right. I’ll bring him to you. Let me
message him real quick.
CRIMINAL
Good.
THEO messages him to tell him to come to his house.
THEO
He will be here in about 5 seconds.
CRIMINAL
Don’t you think that is a bit too –
MICHAEL storms through the door of the garage.
Jesus, how did you get here so quick.

CRIMINAL
The police are after you. You robbed a
bank so I’m taking you to the prison. If I
do, I’ll be free from prison.
MICHAEL (SHOUTING)
I didn’t fucking rob the bank. I was
mistaken for someone else.
CRIMINAL
Maybe you will come with me, if it means
your friend stays alive.
CRIMINAL gets closer with the knife to THEO.
MICHAEL (SHOUTING)
No.
THEO
Just go Michael, we have lost either way.
CRIMINAL
Well, if you don’t go then your little
friend will have his head cut off his
body, his life gone in the flash of an eye
and no one will know what is going o-
MICHAEL knocks the knife on the floor and then MICHAEL and
the CRIMINAL start to fight. First, MICHAEL lands a few
punches swiftly and then proceed to knock the CRIMINAL down
for a couple of seconds. The CRIMINAL manages to dodge a
punch aimed at him on the floor and then MICHAEL injures
his hand. The CRIMINAL then lands a few hits and dazes
MICHAEL in the process, meaning that he is growing weaker
and weaker. MICHAEL is clearly losing the fight, but THEO
