The document discusses the concept of stardom in the film industry. It explores what defines a star and how the studio system cultivated and marketed stars in the early 20th century. Stars were treated as "human marketing devices" and studios tightly controlled their public images. However, this also stripped stars of freedom and individuality. While stardom provided financial benefits, the lifestyle put pressure on stars and many struggled with issues like drug abuse.
Stardom refers to a high level of fame and popularity achieved in a particular field, such as acting. Stars are often used to market and promote films and products due to their established fame and audiences. While stars were originally just seen as talented performers, the concept of the movie star emerged in the early 20th century as the film industry began intentionally cultivating and promoting recognizable performers to draw audiences. The first movie star is considered to be French actor Max Linder, who rose to fame in the 1900s for his comedy roles and film marketing presented him as a star attraction.
1) The document is a screenplay describing scenes from a film about heartbreak and revenge. It begins with a woman crying in her bedroom after a breakup, looking at a photo of her and her ex-partner.
2) She has a crying breakdown in the bathroom, then collapses on her bed. After waking, she smashes the photo frame in anger and frustration.
3) She then goes to her ex's house and discovers him with another woman on the couch. Overcome with shock and sadness, she sees a crossbow and uses it to shoot the other woman, killing her. The woman then leaves with a smirk, as her ex sits in a daze.
A girl is heartbroken after a breakup. She cries in the bathroom and collapses on her bed. She wakes up frustrated and smashes a picture of her and her ex. Seeking revenge, she finds her ex making out with another girl on the couch. The heartbroken girl takes her ex's crossbow and shoots an arrow through the other girl's chest, killing her. She smirks and leaves through the door, credits roll.
This document outlines a story idea called "I shot Cupid" where a heartbroken woman seeks revenge on Cupid and her ex-lover. The story would follow a woman sobbing in her bedroom after a breakup. She sees a photo of her ex and rips it, revealing her reflection. She then goes to a room where her ex and Cupid are kissing and shoots Cupid with a special arrow that kills him. The document discusses developing the story into a short film with specific scenes and characters needed including the heartbroken woman, Cupid, and her ex. It also provides notes on props, costumes, locations and planning to write a two page script.
The 1986 Jim Jarmusch film "Down by Law" follows three men - Zack, Jack and Roberto - who are imprisoned together and eventually escape. The documentary discusses the film's minimalist cinematography by Robby Muller, which relies on long takes with no close-ups to immerse the audience and create a sense of confinement. It also examines the mise-en-scene in each section of the film - from the prison walls that the characters draw on, to the Louisiana swamps they find themselves in after escaping. The editing, led by frequent Jarmusch collaborator Melody London, uses minimal cuts to further emphasize the visuals and tension in shared scenes between the characters.

The document discusses how the minimalist editing style of director Jim Jarmusch impacts the film by allowing scenes to linger and tensions to build without cuts, making the viewer feel as though they are experiencing the awkward interactions and tense situations along with the characters. This style is demonstrated in a scene where two inmates first meet a new prisoner, as the camera remains steady between them during their uncomfortable introduction and conversation.

The worst aspect of the internet is how it enables child predators and the sharing of child pornography. Deeper issues like murder and rape can be found on the dark web, but specifically troubling are real websites that allow child predators to gather, share their habits, and find inspiration from the worst cases like Richard Huckle, who was able to evade arrest for 8 years while uploading abuse. These adults now seek out vulnerable children online to take advantage of their innocence, and there is nothing worse than the internet enabling this abuse.

This document provides details about the production of a short film about Mary Ann Cotton, Britain's first female serial killer. The film was created for the Bright Lights exhibition in Sunderland to showcase young talent from the region.
The original idea was too ambitious, telling Cotton's full story from her trial to execution. A revised ghost story was chosen instead. Pre-production involved script changes and struggles casting roles. Filming locations in Houghton were chosen for their relevance to Cotton's history. Production was difficult due to weather and delays but was enjoyed by the cast and crew. The film aimed to highlight Sunderland's unique history and young creative talent.

1. Toning down the brightness of the background to add more of a foggy look and changing colors to an autumn aesthetic.
2. Cropping the image slightly and reworking the figure layer to improve the result.
3. Adjusting smoke effects to fit better and coloring the figure blue to add illuminous effect.
4. Adding back in remaining layers and creating a black and white version while keeping tones consistent.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
ย
The recent surge in pro-Palestine student activism has prompted significant responses from universities, ranging from negotiations and divestment commitments to increased transparency about investments in companies supporting the war on Gaza. This activism has led to the cessation of student encampments but also highlighted the substantial sacrifices made by students, including academic disruptions and personal risks. The primary drivers of these protests are poor university administration, lack of transparency, and inadequate communication between officials and students. This study examines the profound emotional, psychological, and professional impacts on students engaged in pro-Palestine protests, focusing on Generation Z's (Gen-Z) activism dynamics. This paper explores the significant sacrifices made by these students and even the professors supporting the pro-Palestine movement, with a focus on recent global movements. Through an in-depth analysis of printed and electronic media, the study examines the impacts of these sacrifices on the academic and personal lives of those involved. The paper highlights examples from various universities, demonstrating student activism's long-term and short-term effects, including disciplinary actions, social backlash, and career implications. The researchers also explore the broader implications of student sacrifices. The findings reveal that these sacrifices are driven by a profound commitment to justice and human rights, and are influenced by the increasing availability of information, peer interactions, and personal convictions. The study also discusses the broader implications of this activism, comparing it to historical precedents and assessing its potential to influence policy and public opinion. The emotional and psychological toll on student activists is significant, but their sense of purpose and community support mitigates some of these challenges. However, the researchers call for acknowledging the broader Impact of these sacrifices on the future global movement of FreePalestine.
