The student created a short film with their group. They began by brainstorming ideas and locations. They decided to film in school corridors to create a mysterious atmosphere. Their script began in black and white to represent a dream, then transitioned to color when the character awoke. After finalizing roles and research, they practiced shots and made changes to improve the film. They ensured camera angles followed continuity rules to avoid confusion. Shots like bird's eye view, over the shoulder, and high angle were used to convey meaning. Fades to black created tension while fades to white emphasized the transition from dream to reality. The student gained confidence editing audio with practice on the new software.

The Roman Empire A Historical Colossus.pdfkaushalkr1407
The Roman Empire, a vast and enduring power, stands as one of history's most remarkable civilizations, leaving an indelible imprint on the world. It emerged from the Roman Republic, transitioning into an imperial powerhouse under the leadership of Augustus Caesar in 27 BCE. This transformation marked the beginning of an era defined by unprecedented territorial expansion, architectural marvels, and profound cultural influence.
The empire's roots lie in the city of Rome, founded, according to legend, by Romulus in 753 BCE. Over centuries, Rome evolved from a small settlement to a formidable republic, characterized by a complex political system with elected officials and checks on power. However, internal strife, class conflicts, and military ambitions paved the way for the end of the Republic. Julius Caesar’s dictatorship and subsequent assassination in 44 BCE created a power vacuum, leading to a civil war. Octavian, later Augustus, emerged victorious, heralding the Roman Empire’s birth.
Under Augustus, the empire experienced the Pax Romana, a 200-year period of relative peace and stability. Augustus reformed the military, established efficient administrative systems, and initiated grand construction projects. The empire's borders expanded, encompassing territories from Britain to Egypt and from Spain to the Euphrates. Roman legions, renowned for their discipline and engineering prowess, secured and maintained these vast territories, building roads, fortifications, and cities that facilitated control and integration.
The Roman Empire’s society was hierarchical, with a rigid class system. At the top were the patricians, wealthy elites who held significant political power. Below them were the plebeians, free citizens with limited political influence, and the vast numbers of slaves who formed the backbone of the economy. The family unit was central, governed by the paterfamilias, the male head who held absolute authority.
Culturally, the Romans were eclectic, absorbing and adapting elements from the civilizations they encountered, particularly the Greeks. Roman art, literature, and philosophy reflected this synthesis, creating a rich cultural tapestry. Latin, the Roman language, became the lingua franca of the Western world, influencing numerous modern languages.
Roman architecture and engineering achievements were monumental. They perfected the arch, vault, and dome, constructing enduring structures like the Colosseum, Pantheon, and aqueducts. These engineering marvels not only showcased Roman ingenuity but also served practical purposes, from public entertainment to water supply.
This is a presentation by Dada Robert in a Your Skill Boost masterclass organised by the Excellence Foundation for South Sudan (EFSS) on Saturday, the 25th and Sunday, the 26th of May 2024.
He discussed the concept of quality improvement, emphasizing its applicability to various aspects of life, including personal, project, and program improvements. He defined quality as doing the right thing at the right time in the right way to achieve the best possible results and discussed the concept of the "gap" between what we know and what we do, and how this gap represents the areas we need to improve. He explained the scientific approach to quality improvement, which involves systematic performance analysis, testing and learning, and implementing change ideas. He also highlighted the importance of client focus and a team approach to quality improvement.

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.

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.

1. Question 1:
The first thing my group and I did was to begin mind mapping and thinking of various ideas, including
the topic of the short film and what would happen overall. This also included searching for good
locations (main locations included: corridor outside media room, media room(this is where the
conversation takes place) and outside the main gates of the school), testing a variety of camera shots
and then leading to think about a script. For example we decided to use some of the school corridors,
because they are very long and eerie when empty. This aided us in filming lots of low angled shots,
which helped present the idea of a mysterious stretched corridor, helping show a dream like world we
wanted to create.
After a lot of thought we came to the conclusion that the scene would begin in black and white, which
presented the idea of a dream and fantasy. This would then lead to changing to colour once the
person awakens from their slumber. This way we would also be able to use and test out a bigger range
of effects and editing tools, aiding us in further editing in the future.
Next, after we arranged the script and roles (my role in the short film was being an actor in it), we all
conducted a lot of research, mainly towards camera angles and shot types. If we could get some good
shots in our scene it would help aid us massively in making the whole piece a lot better and easier to
watch for the viewers, therefore making it more enjoyable.
We then practiced the scripted scene and shots so we
could see how it would look and what may be needed
to be cut out. Many changed occurred in this phases,
ranging from script, to shots and location. But enough
though many aspects got changed here, it helped bring
the whole piece fully together and gave a great take on
the piece.
2. Question 2
The rule states that the camera should remain the same side of an imaginary line
The line is drawn perpendicular the camera’s viewpoint in the establishing shot of the scene
The rule enforces continuity of the film
An example is that in a car chase scene, if the car is travelling from right to left, the next shot
must also be shot from the same side, meaning the car has to enter the frame right to left again
The same applies for football matches and other sport
The rule should never be broken, the only defence for breaking the rule is ‘for effect’. Breaking
the rule will confuse the audience, especially in scenes of chase, conversation or sport, so the
camera must always be on one side of the line.
We ensured that we didn’t break
this as by doing so it could result in
the confusion of the audience, the
audience losing focus, the scene
becoming disorientated or people
missing vital parts of the
film(scene). We made sure we kept
one character on one side and
another on the other, this mainly
occurred in conversation scenes.
3. The male character was always on the
left….
…and the female was always on
the right.
4. Question 3
We used a ‘Bird’s eye view shot’ near the start of the
short film, this added a different view and perspective
to the shot. This is a completely different and
somewhat unnatural point of view which can be
used for dramatic effect or for showing a different
spatial perspective.
In a dramatic setting like we have made in our shot,
it can be used to show the positions and motions of different
characters and objects, enabling the viewer
to see things the characters can't.
Another shot that was used was the ‘Over the shoulder shot’.
This shot helped allow the audience an insight into what the
character sees and from their point of view. In this case the
audience is aware that the female character is confronting and
talking to the male character. This shot can also add realism to
the shot as the audience adopt the same view as the character.
A high angle shot was another shot we used. This was used at the start of
the film when the character appears to be running away from something in
fear. We used this shot as it helps show the subject from above, i.e. the
camera is angled down towards the subject., this has the effect of
diminishing the subject, making them appear less powerful, less significant
or even submissive. Which is what was needed as the character was the one
frightened and afraid.
5. One of the last shots we used was the slanted or tilt shot. This is where the camera is
purposely tilted to one side so the horizon is on an angle. This creates an interesting and
dramatic effect. We used this shot as the male character awakens and sees the girl
opposite him, this helped create and interesting scene, while also showing the characters
point of view as he tilts his head up. Therefore putting the audience in his position.
(Famous examples include Carol Reed's The Third Man, Orson Welles' Citizen Kane and the
Batman series.)
6. Question 4
The main effect that was used throughout the editing
stages was the dissolve transitions: fading to black
and to white. We used fading to black as it helped
create tension and suspense to the scene, fading to
white was also used but for a different reason, which
was to help emphasise the colour change in
transitions.
Around half way through the film, the main character
awakens from his sleep. Every thing up to that point
was in black and white to help create a unreal and
strange, colourless world; like in a dream. By fading to
white it helped show the sudden change from dark to
light and from dream into reality.
Fade to black
Fade to white
This was the first time I had used that software and wasn’t sure how to use certain
aspects of it, a feature I particularly struggled with was the editing if audio. It took a
while for me to gain confidence and understanding of how to use it. For example I
wasn’t sure how to add in just the sound from a video, without that actual video
being there. But after some support and help by friends and teachers I soon got the
hang of it and understood the process a lot more. Now I know how to use this, I am
much more confident to use it and create a lot more creative and interesting videos
and films.
