Film noir is a term used to describe stylish crime dramas from the 1940s-1950s that emphasize cynical attitudes and sexual motivations. Key visual styles include low-key black-and-white cinematography and three-point lighting creating shadows. Common themes include alienation, bleakness, pessimism, moral corruption, evil, guilt, and ambiguity. Alfred Hitchcock's 1960 psychological thriller Psycho exemplifies these styles and themes through its depiction of Norman Bates. A classic element is the "femme fatale," a mysterious and manipulative woman who leads men into crime through twisted love.

Dark lighting and settings are used to set the mood, as is black and white film to emulate the technology of the time period. The main character is an antihero who gets involved with a femme fatale character who manipulates him, wearing red lipstick, as the detective voiceover narrates the story in a noir style. Music, furniture, and an enigmatic title sequence are also used to emulate common Film Noir conventions.
Film noir is a genre of stylish crime dramas from the 1940s characterized by cynical attitudes and sexual motivations. Key conventions include the frequent smoking of characters which adds mystery, femme fatales who seduce men to their downfall, and detective male protagonists. The films use chiaroscuro lighting with contrasts of light and shadow to create an atmosphere of mystery, and take place in dark, urban locations at night that signal danger.
The document discusses techniques used in the film 12 Angry Men. It describes the genre as film noir, with conventions like smoking, rain and shadows. It notes an exposition where a character shows a photo of himself and his son, which explains his change in verdict. During scenes where one man holds a not guilty verdict, camera shots isolate him from grouped shots of others. The film takes place mainly in the confining jury room, represented by a table made of two joined together. Editing uses long takes in the beginning and faster cuts later as verdicts change more rapidly.
This document discusses conventions and gender roles in film noir. It analyzes conventions like violence, fate/death, and black and white cinematography. It explores how film noir represented post-WWII society as bleak with no hope. It examines character archetypes like the "anti-hero" and "femme fatale." It analyzes how men were portrayed as damaged and vulnerable, easily seduced by cunning women. Women were seen as untrustworthy and exploiting men's vulnerabilities. Screenshots from films like "Double Indemnity" and "Laura" demonstrate these concepts through visuals like powerful women towering over vulnerable men.
This document summarizes a group's plans for filming the opening of a film noir project. It describes choosing isolated, abandoned locations to represent the main character's emotions. Two key locations selected are a bedroom and kitchen. Costumes and props are selected to establish the time period and mood, including a trilby hat, braces, and cracked mirror for the main character, and a black dress for the femme fatale. Potential music and sound effects are listed. Photos of potential cast members are presented. Research on film noir themes is shown from blogs. A storyboard and schedule are also referenced.
Film noir has a distinct style that represented the mood in America after World War II through its use of gloomy grays, blacks, and whites. Visually, film noir used expressionistic lighting, shadows, and skewed camera angles to convey a sense of isolation. One recognizable feature is the use of low-key lighting and shadows to create a sense of disorientation and emphasize the cold nature of characters. Gender roles were also distinctly portrayed, with femmes fatales representing a threat to traditional values and victims portrayed as upholding maternal instincts. The 1941 film I Wake Up Screaming showed how women were limited to careers based on looks and the power dynamics of the time through camera angles that made women appear submissive.

THE SACRIFICE HOW PRO-PALESTINE PROTESTS STUDENTS ARE SACRIFICING TO CHANGE T...indexPub
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.
