Favourite music video
This music video defies stereotypes by showing Christopher Walken, known for his formal roles, dancing extremely in a suit. The video gets stranger as it progresses, with Walken flying at one point. Though the viewer may not like the song, the unexpected visuals keep their attention. Walken's formal suit creates humor because its seriousness is at odds with his energetic dancing and the bizarre events of the video. The suit's dull grey color further underscores the joke that Walken's actions contradict what his outfit suggests.
London filming day
Max, Jack, Grace and Elliott met up in London to film a music video. They shot footage at various locations like Oxford Circus, Piccadilly Circus, Trafalgar Square and Camden Market. Heavy rain caused delays and issues finding cover. They argued but continued filming, getting better shots as it got darker. Accidentally boarding the wrong train led them to London Bridge where they got amazing footage against the city skyline lit up at night, improving their video. They ended filming back at Piccadilly Circus for its Christmas lights and large screens. While facing challenges, their perseverance through shooting more at night paid off.
Iphone
The document discusses the camera chosen to film a video project. An iPhone 6 was selected because it has a 1080p camera capable of recording at 60 FPS, which would provide better video quality and a more professional look meeting industry standards. The iPhone 6 was also a convenient choice as most group members owned one, it had 16GB of memory for storage, and past work using the iPhone 6 camera produced high quality pictures and a good outcome.
Bad blood
The music video for "Bad Blood" by Taylor Swift depicts her falling out with Katy Perry through symbolic scenes and imagery:
1) The opening nighttime cityscape connotes the "criminal activity" in the song's lyrics and sets the ominous tone.
2) Taylor is shown overpowering a man in an office, paralleling her dominant role over Katy Perry's character (Arysn) who attacks her.
3) Scenes of Taylor surrounded by loyal models in white versus Arysn in black suggest Taylor sees herself as good versus Katy as evil, representing their soured relationship.
Digipak rough cuts
This document contains 3 entries for digipak rough cuts but provides no further details about these entries. It lists "Digipak rough cut 1", "Digipak rough cut 2", and "Digipak rough cut 3" but gives no context or descriptions for these listings.
Evaluation 2
The document analyzes how effectively the main product (a music video) is supported by ancillary texts (a digipak and magazine advert). It finds that continuity is established through the shared use of shots, lighting, costumes, locations and artist/producer logos between the music video and ancillary texts. This continuity helps promote the artist's identity and creates a professional, cohesive promotional package.
Forest Filming Diary Entry
The group began their first day of filming for their KGMA project by taking a muddy walk through the forest to Katie's house while brainstorming ideas. Upon arriving cold and muddy, they helped their actress into costume and makeup for a natural thriller look. Eager to start filming, they began capturing video blogs and shooting footage of their actress running and wandering in various spots around the forest, overcoming challenges like slippery slopes, blocked camera angles, and other people in shots. After collecting plenty of material in the muddy conditions, they returned to Katie's house to plan their next steps and assignments.
Audience theory
There are three main theories of how audiences interact with media texts: 1) The Effects Model sees media as having direct influence over passive audiences; 2) Uses and Gratifications Theory views audiences as active users who engage with media to fulfill personal needs; 3) Reception Theory holds that audiences can decode media messages in different ways, either accepting, negotiating, or opposing the intended meaning. The document then provides details on each theory's key assumptions about the relationship between audiences and media content.

Cyber bullying
A slideshow on some truly shocking case studies related to cyber bullying and the grief and depression that is attached to it.
Theorists of music videos
Sven E Carlsson discusses two common approaches to analyzing music videos: breaking them down into binary opposites, and categorizing them as either "performance" or "conceptual" videos. Performance videos feature the artist singing and dancing, while conceptual videos feature something other than the artist. Carlsson also proposes that performance videos often portray the artist as a "materialization of the commercial exhibitionist" who sells their image. Michael Shore concludes that most music videos contain adolescent male fantasies through imagery of speed, power, girls and wealth that amounts to soft-core pornography. Andrew Goodwin identifies several theoretical lenses through which to understand music videos, such as cinematic genres, advertising, television, visual art, and poetry.
What is merchandise
Merchandise refers to goods sold at retail that are promoted through display techniques, samples, demonstrations, pricing strategies, and other point-of-sale methods. Merchandising aims to market the right products, in the right quantities, at the right location, time, and price. Artists have turned to merchandise to increase sales amid declining music revenues from digital piracy, as merchandise provides a physical product that cannot be illegally downloaded. Selling branded merchandise from artists keeps their name recognized and promotes interest in their recent music, while increasing profits and creating loyalty between the artist and their fans.
Music Video Theories
This short document promotes creating presentations using Haiku Deck, a tool for making slideshows. It encourages the reader to get started making their own Haiku Deck presentation and sharing it on SlideShare. In a single sentence, it pitches the idea of using Haiku Deck to easily create and share slideshow presentations online.
What is a magazine advert
Magazine advertisements are important for generating revenue for publications. They consist of graphics or images from an album or single, release dates, critics reviews, key tracks listed, and the artist's website. An example magazine advertisement for Olly Murs' album shows the large bold album title as the most eyecatching element. It features the album artwork as the main focal image to allow recognition. The release date is included to let people know when they can purchase a copy. Singles previously released to promote the album are listed to interest fans of those songs in buying the full album.
Initial ideas feedback
1) The document discusses initial ideas for a music video project, including choosing the song "Glitterball" by Ella Henderson and Sigma and having a concept of love shown through relationships and love hearts.
2) Teachers provided feedback on the initial ideas, raising questions about the song choice, clear concept, costumes, and main focus.
3) In response, the students further developed their ideas, deciding on concepts, costumes like a sparkly princess dress, and featuring a main female lead and variety of people.
4) Overall, receiving feedback on initial ideas helped lay the foundation for a successful final project by addressing raised issues and teaching the importance of constructive criticism.

Pete frasers 10 step guide
Pete Frasers 10 Step Guide provides instructions for making an original music video with limited resources. The steps include:
1. Improvising a rough music video to determine pacing and tone.
2. Choosing an obscure song without well known imagery to allow for originality. The song should inspire visuals and be around 3 minutes long.
3. Writing a basic treatment outlining the video concept and getting feedback.
The guide provides a thorough process for planning, shooting, and editing the music video from start to finish.
What is a digipak
Digipaks consist of a paperboard book-style CD packaging with a front and back cover displaying album information. An interior page provides additional song and artist details. Digipaks allow for more photography and design than jewel cases but are more likely to rip or fall apart over time. They can be made from recycled materials, making them more environmentally friendly. Katy Perry's "Teenage Dream" album effectively used bright colors and close-up photography in its digipak to represent the theme and artist's personality.
Codes and conventions of a rock music video
Rock music videos typically feature stereotypical props like electric guitars, bass guitars, drum sets, microphones, and large speakers. Rock originated in the 1950s with Elvis Presley's "Jailhouse Rock" video, one of the first rock music videos. Over time, rock has expanded to include genres like heavy metal, alternative, and new wave. Rock music videos have changed significantly over 30 years, from the colorful styles of Queen to the darker images of bands like You Me At Six. Lighting is usually low-key but can also include strobing or high-key lighting, while colors tend to be dark but sometimes feature bright hues. Storylines are often unique, covering topics from everyday life to more

Toxic analysis
The song "Toxic" portrays Britney Spears moving into more mature subject matter compared to her previous teenage-oriented music. The lyrics suggest drug use and a sexual theme. The up-tempo dance music and fast editing of the music video continue Britney's genre. Britney's dancing is more sexually suggestive as she gets close to males. Her outfits also indicate a more mature nature. The video focuses on Britney through close-ups and mid-shots to make her the main focus. It follows a narrative of Britney as a female spy using her sexuality to complete missions while trying to escape and be free.
Miley cyrus digipak
Miley Cyrus's album digipak allows fans to delve deeper into her personal life through the images and graphics. It opens like a poster for wall art rather than a book. Consistent colors and fonts throughout give the album a cohesive theme fans may recognize in the future. Background images appear like photos Miley herself may have, allowing her life story to be told through sound and not just visuals.
Choosing our location
Dagwood Lane was chosen as the filming location because it met the three desired aspects and had the best isolated feeling. The document discusses the positives and negatives of two potential locations - Dagwood Lane and Shenfeild Common. Dagwood Lane has overgrown trees, a small isolated lake, and a long narrow road, though it risks unsafe traffic. Shenfeild Common has a dense forest and large lake but is too public and lacks a road. Overall, Dagwood Lane was selected as the best option.
Intended Target Audience
The document discusses the intended target audience and distribution of a new thriller film called "Paranoia" produced by Scene's Productions. It aims to increase the company's worldwide status by producing a horror thriller with new aspects that lovers of the genre will enjoy, and which does not rely heavily on dialogue so it can be accessed broadly. By posting the film on YouTube, it can reach audiences in 65 countries via the internet, taking advantage of growing mobile access through technologies like 3G and 4G so people can view it conveniently on different devices.

zkStudyClub - LatticeFold: A Lattice-based Folding Scheme and its Application...
Folding is a recent technique for building efficient recursive SNARKs. Several elegant folding protocols have been proposed, such as Nova, Supernova, Hypernova, Protostar, and others. However, all of them rely on an additively homomorphic commitment scheme based on discrete log, and are therefore not post-quantum secure. In this work we present LatticeFold, the first lattice-based folding protocol based on the Module SIS problem. This folding protocol naturally leads to an efficient recursive lattice-based SNARK and an efficient PCD scheme. LatticeFold supports folding low-degree relations, such as R1CS, as well as high-degree relations, such as CCS. The key challenge is to construct a secure folding protocol that works with the Ajtai commitment scheme. The difficulty, is ensuring that extracted witnesses are low norm through many rounds of folding. We present a novel technique using the sumcheck protocol to ensure that extracted witnesses are always low norm no matter how many rounds of folding are used. Our evaluation of the final proof system suggests that it is as performant as Hypernova, while providing post-quantum security.

The typical problem in product engineering is not bad strategy, so much as “no strategy”. This leads to confusion, lack of motivation, and incoherent action. The next time you look for a strategy and find an empty space, instead of waiting for it to be filled, I will show you how to fill it in yourself. If you’re wrong, it forces a correction. If you’re right, it helps create focus. I’ll share how I’ve approached this in the past, both what works and lessons for what didn’t work so well.
What is an RPA CoE? Session 1 – CoE Vision
In the first session, we will review the organization's vision and how this has an impact on the COE Structure.

Generating privacy-protected synthetic data using Secludy and Milvus
During this demo, the founders of Secludy will demonstrate how their system utilizes Milvus to store and manipulate embeddings for generating privacy-protected synthetic data. Their approach not only maintains the confidentiality of the original data but also enhances the utility and scalability of LLMs under privacy constraints. Attendees, including machine learning engineers, data scientists, and data managers, will witness first-hand how Secludy's integration with Milvus empowers organizations to harness the power of LLMs securely and efficiently.
Freshworks Rethinks NoSQL for Rapid Scaling & Cost-Efficiency
Freshworks creates AI-boosted business software that helps employees work more efficiently and effectively. Managing data across multiple RDBMS and NoSQL databases was already a challenge at their current scale. To prepare for 10X growth, they knew it was time to rethink their database strategy. Learn how they architected a solution that would simplify scaling while keeping costs under control.
"Choosing proper type of scaling", Olena Syrota
Imagine an IoT processing system that is already quite mature and production-ready and for which client coverage is growing and scaling and performance aspects are life and death questions. The system has Redis, MongoDB, and stream processing based on ksqldb. In this talk, firstly, we will analyze scaling approaches and then select the proper ones for our system.
Mutation Testing for Task-Oriented Chatbots
Conversational agents, or chatbots, are increasingly used to access all sorts of services using natural language. While open-domain chatbots - like ChatGPT - can converse on any topic, task-oriented chatbots - the focus of this paper - are designed for specific tasks, like booking a flight, obtaining customer support, or setting an appointment. Like any other software, task-oriented chatbots need to be properly tested, usually by defining and executing test scenarios (i.e., sequences of user-chatbot interactions). However, there is currently a lack of methods to quantify the completeness and strength of such test scenarios, which can lead to low-quality tests, and hence to buggy chatbots.
To fill this gap, we propose adapting mutation testing (MuT) for task-oriented chatbots. To this end, we introduce a set of mutation operators that emulate faults in chatbot designs, an architecture that enables MuT on chatbots built using heterogeneous technologies, and a practical realisation as an Eclipse plugin. Moreover, we evaluate the applicability, effectiveness and efficiency of our approach on open-source chatbots, with promising results.
