This document outlines a production schedule for a digital graphic narrative project. It details the planning and resources needed across 7 sessions. Key points include:
- Session 1 focuses on character and background development. Rotoscoping will be used to create forest and desert backgrounds.
- Session 2 continues character development and adds text. Scenery like clouds will be made using shape and warp tools.
- Session 3 adds environmental details and includes a version of the witch character seen from behind. A sky gradient will be made.
- Later sessions populate environments with characters, create a template for text, and introduce techniques like motion blur to illustrate a pivotal scene of the character running.
Sea Water Air Conditioning [SWAC]: A Cost Effective AlternativeCSCJournals
The energy demand for air conditioning is quite extensive due to the hot and humid summer climate in Egypt. The rapid increase in non industrial electricity consumption is due to the rural electrification and the presence of many buildings that are air conditioned in summer using electricity. Deep cold ocean and sea water is a valuable natural resource that can be used for energy production, cooling, desalination, aquaculture and agriculture. The most economic viable use of this deep water is to air-condition buildings through a sea water air conditioning system (SWAC). This study reports the results of a technical and economical assessment of the potential use of sea water air conditioning (SWAC) other than the conventional vapor compression systems used to air condition hotels at a new tourists resort called “Sahl-Hasheesh”,18km south of Hurghada, Egypt. This study analyzed and sized the major components of the Sea water Air Conditioning (SWAC) system, determined the operational performance, and estimated the probable costs. The economic analysis was based on two different methods, the simple pay back and the net present value (NPV) method. The results showed that the SWAC system is the preferred option for its short payback period as well as the minimum net present value when being applied at Sahl-Hasheesh area. Large energy savings approaching 80% compared to the conventional ones. This is in addition to the low green house gas emissions.

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.

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.

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. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

Planning booklet
1. Digital Graphic Narrative Planning
Use this booklet to help structure your planning and collate your planning documents.
Considerations:
There are lots of things to consider in this project. Fill out each section in detail to show you have thought about each one. You
should imagine that this is a live project, so considerations like cost, quantity and codes of practice must be thought about in that
context rather than just as a college project.
Costs:
The costs I will have to consider are, the price of a Mac, the cost of purchasing adobe Photoshop to create my
illustrations and unique font with. Another cost to consider would be the cost of printing the pages for my
book.
Available resources:
The resources, which are available to me, are a Mac, graphics tablet, camera, adobe Photoshop, the internet
and a memory storage device to store my work and also allow me to keep back ups of my work incase I lose
one copy.
2. Quantity:
The amount of books I will be producing is a large amount, the reason for this is because my book is not a
limited edition book and I want my product to be sold in different stores as well as just book stores, this is so
that my product can connect with different social classes.
Audience and Target Market:
The audience for my book is 1-10 year olds. The reason I have chosen this age group is because the parents
of the child are likely to read the book to their child, therefore the age range can start from 1 years old.
Quality Factors:
I will make sure that the quality of my book stays at a high standard from the beginning to the end. The reason
behind this is because if a publisher looks at a page of my book and agrees to publish it, however when I
produce the rest of my finished work to them, they are not pleased with the quality of it; they have the right to
cancel the publishing. This means that the quality of my book needs to remain at a high standard throughout.
Codes of Practice:
I will make sure that my book doesn’t breach any copyright infringements. I will do this by creating original
illustrations that are not copying anyone else’s creations. I don’t have to worry about my story breaking
copyright infringements because the story of little red riding hood has been re-written and adapted so many
times that I don’t have to worry about copyright.
3. Regulation:
I will be avoiding any content, which I feel is unsuitable for my target age range. An example of this is
ensuring that my book doesn’t contain any toys that the children can harm themselves with.
Copyright:
I will ensure that my work does not include any copyright material. I will do this by making sure that my
illustrations are created through my own ideas and techniques, although I will take inspiration from other
illustrations, I will make sure not to copy their style and breach the copyright regulations.
Ethical Issues:
I will also have to be certain not to accidently include content, which will offend people. Examples of this are,
racism, discrimination and sexism. As well as keeping the book age appropriate and not including violence or
profanity.
4. Resources:
A successful project relies on good planning. Considering all the resources you will need for a project and then assessing which
you already have and which you need will help ensure you are ready to start your project.
If there is a resource you don’t currently have, then consider how you are going to get it before you go in to production.
Resource: Do you have
it? What do you need to do to get it?
Mac Yes
Photoshop Yes
Internet Yes
Memory storage device Yes
Graphics tablet Yes
Camera Yes
Wi-Fi Yes
5. Production Schedule:
Delivering your project on time is vital. In order to do this, you need a solid plan of action. This will help you divide up your work in
to manageable chunks to be tackled one at a time. It will also allow you to plan which tasks need to be done in which order. It will
also allow you to track your progress each day. If you are falling behind, you will need to modify the way you work. If you work
faster than expected, you can clearly see what the next steps you need to take are.
Each session is a half day of college.
Session 1:
In this session I need to create the first page of my book and make sure that all of my characters are
completed and I know what they are going to look like and how to create them. I also need to develop
different versions of the characters for different points in the narrative. For example I will need to create
versions of the main character running, this is due to there being a pivotal moment in the narrative where
the main character is running.
This session will also be used to rotoscope backgrounds for my pages, this will include backgrounds
such as forests and deserts. I think that rotoscoping these backgrounds will be the best option as it is
very time efficient and will allow me to introduce photorealism into my work.
Session 2:
In this session I will create different versions of my characters, for example, different views of the
character, such as shots from behind, in front and from the side of the character. I will also use this
session to focus on the shading of my characters. I will also create different versions of the bricks for the
6. brick wall on my second page. I will create a single row of various coloured bricks and then duplicate this
layer multiple times to create a brick wall. After this I will add the text in front of the brick wall.
I will also be using this session to use the shape tool skills I learnt to create pieces of scenery to add to
my backgrounds. For example, I will use the shape tool to create an ellipse. I will then use the warp tool
to give the shape curves and rounded edges; this will make the shape look like a cloud. I will then colour
fill the shape white and duplicate the layer as many times as I feel is necessary until my background has
a sky full of clouds.
Session 3:
In this session I will continue to create the environment for my third page. I will also add detail to the
environments through the use of shading and other techniques to add a sense of photorealism to my
work. I will also need to include the version of my witch character that shows the character from behind. I
will also use the gradient colour tool to create a sky, which is a light blue at the bottom, and a vibrant
white towards the top.
Furthermore, this session will be used to choose the font for my book. I will try multiple different fonts
and see which style works best for my book. I will be choosing a font, which is appropriate for my target
age. This means that the font needs to be easy to read, as well as being visually pleasing to the reader.
7. Session 4:
After creating the environment for my page I will add the characters into the environment and decide if I
need to make any adjustments before continuing. I will also begin to make a template for my text. The
reason for this is so that I can make sure I leave enough space on the page to include my text. I will also
use the texture tool to make the grass layer look more rugged and have the appearance of grass.
I will also be using this session to change the width of the gap between the words in my text. By doing
this I will be giving my pages more room for the illustrations, whilst maintaining a readable text.
Session 5:
In this session I will create the background, which will be used for the next few pages.
In order to make the scene look slightly different every time I will change the positioning of the sun. I will
do this to depict the change in time between each page, in order to show how the story is progressing. I
will also use the opacity tool to give the reader the impression that the wolf character is disappearing
from the page.
I will also slightly change the size of the antagonist on one page. The reason for this is that the bigger
the character looks in comparison to the protagonist, the more powerful and in control they will look in
comparison to the much smaller character who is being depicted as weak and scared.
8. Session 6:
This session will be used to introduce the different versions of my characters to scenes. Such as the
characters being flipped horizontally if they are moving away from the other character. I will also use this
session to create a pair of hands, which I need in order for the illustrations of the page to link with the
text. I will create this illustration by choosing an image from Google images and rotoscoping the hands;
this includes features such as the lines across the hands.
Another task I have to do during this session is create a speech bubble for my character. This will allow
me to have certain pieces of dialogue illustrated as coming from the mouth of the character. This will
also create a connection between the book and the reader, this is due to the character talking directly to
the reader and telling them their thoughts.
Session 7:
I will create another environment with a more simplistic design, this will reduce the amount of time it will
take to create, as well as being easier and allowing me more time to focus on adding more detail to my
characters, which will be the focal point of the book. After this I will create a more complex environment
for my characters to be placed in. I will also add high amounts of detail, such as the windows showing
9. the forests outside of the house. Another feature I will add to the page is a scaled down version of the
main character walking through the forest, this is a hint to the reader that Little Brown Wolf is likely to be
in the next page.
This session is also going to be used to create a motion blur scene. During a pivotal point in the
narrative, the main character runs away. In order to illustrate this, I created multiple versions of the
character and placed them in a line, going from the bottom of the hill, to the top of the hill. To give the
impression that the wolf is running away, I gradually raised the opacity from the 30% onwards until the
final version of the wolf at the top of the hill was on full opacity, depicting how he has reached the top of
the hill by running.
Session 8:
During this session I will work on adding items into my pages in order to make them look less mundane
and simple. Examples of some of the objects I am going to make are, photo frames that are depicting
the main protagonists. I think this will be a nice touch as it makes it clear to the reader who owns the
house and also strengthens the readers understanding of the relationship between the protagonists.
This session will also be used to create a side-on version of the little red riding hood character. I will
create this using the original character as a template for the size and colours.
Session 8 will also be used to ensure that the colour of the text on each page doesn’t clash with the
colour of the background. This would mean that the text is less visible and hard for the reader to
understand. I will therefore correct any mistakes by either changing the colour of the text, or changing
the colour of the background.
10. Session 9:
In the last few sessions of production I will focus on the colour of the text and make sure that the text is
clearly depicted on each page and is visible for the reader. I will also check over each page to ensure
that the font type stays consistent throughout the book. I will also use this session to create different
object for my environment, such as a cabinet that can be placed into my environment to make the page
look less mundane. Furthermore, this session will be used to add extra text to my page, such as a
“HELP” coming from the trap the main character ends up in. This adds to the visual interaction the
audience has with the page, this is because of the text preventing the page from looking too empty.
I will also be using session 9 to finalize my work and make sure that my work has as much detail as
possible. For example, this means ensuring that objects such as trees have faint lines along them in a
lighter shade of the tree’s colour. This creates an impression of realism as the tree look as though it has
the same details that are visible on an image of a real tree. These small details add to the overall
photorealism of my work.
Session 10:
In the last session I will focus on ensuring that the quality of my work stays consistent throughout the
book. This includes things such as making sure that the characters are wearing the same clothes on
each page and that there are no dramatic changes between pages. This includes making sure there are
no changes to the environments that are in more than one page.
11. In the last session I will also ensure that the text on every page has no spelling or grammar mistakes.
The reason for this is that the book is supposed to educate children and further their reading skills.
However, if the book they are learning from is filled with spelling and grammar mistakes, then they will
pick up bad habits and their education will suffer.
12. Health and safety:
Your health and safety and that of those around you is very important. Just like in industry, an accident could prevent you from
working. Whilst we don’t work in a highly dangerous environment, there are still risks. Some are short term, such as trips and
spillages whilst others, such as long term damage to eyesight or back problems, may affect you much later in life.
Consider the risks based on the activities you will be undertaking during the project. Explain how you could prevent them from
happening.
Ensure you reference appropriate pieces of legislation, design to protect people at work.
Health and Safety Issue How can you prevent it?
Loose wires that could cause people to trip over. You could prevent this by moving any wires, which are
causing an obstruction and are a likely hazard.
Chairs and tables in the middle of the room/chair left out
from under the table.
The chairs could be pushed under the table to prevent
people from tripping over.
Long periods of time staring at the computer screen
causing eyesight damage and headaches.
Taking 5-10 minute breaks every hour in order to give
your eyes a rest from the computer screen could prevent
this.
13. The health and safety at work act 1974 states that you
must look out for your own safety as well as the safety of
others around you.
This means that you must check all equipment to ensure
that it is safe for use. This also means that all accidents
and injuries should be recorded to keep track of the
quality of the health and safety.
Neck, shoulder, back & arm pain, fatigue and eyestrain.
The Screen regulations act 1992 means that people who
work with DSE (display screen equipment) are protected
by the screens regulation act.
