The document proposes a stop motion short film about a man who finds a watch that allows him to freeze time. The man abuses this power but his greed leads to his downfall. The ending leaves it ambiguous whether finding the watch was real or a dream. The film aims to appeal to young male audiences who prefer time travel and fantasy genres. It will use Adobe Premiere to edit clips and make it seem like time is frozen, keeping special effects minimal to maintain realism. An evaluation will assess what worked well, such as the story, and areas for improvement like acting quality.

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.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in EducationPeter Windle
Artificial Intelligence (AI) technologies such as Generative AI, Image Generators and Large Language Models have had a dramatic impact on teaching, learning and assessment over the past 18 months. The most immediate threat AI posed was to Academic Integrity with Higher Education Institutes (HEIs) focusing their efforts on combating the use of GenAI in assessment. Guidelines were developed for staff and students, policies put in place too. Innovative educators have forged paths in the use of Generative AI for teaching, learning and assessments leading to pockets of transformation springing up across HEIs, often with little or no top-down guidance, support or direction.
This Gasta posits a strategic approach to integrating AI into HEIs to prepare staff, students and the curriculum for an evolving world and workplace. We will highlight the advantages of working with these technologies beyond the realm of teaching, learning and assessment by considering prompt engineering skills, industry impact, curriculum changes, and the need for staff upskilling. In contrast, not engaging strategically with Generative AI poses risks, including falling behind peers, missed opportunities and failing to ensure our graduates remain employable. The rapid evolution of AI technologies necessitates a proactive and strategic approach if we are to remain relevant.

June 3, 2024 Anti-Semitism Letter Sent to MIT President Kornbluth and MIT Cor...Levi Shapiro
Letter from the Congress of the United States regarding Anti-Semitism sent June 3rd to MIT President Sally Kornbluth, MIT Corp Chair, Mark Gorenberg
Dear Dr. Kornbluth and Mr. Gorenberg,
The US House of Representatives is deeply concerned by ongoing and pervasive acts of antisemitic
harassment and intimidation at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT). Failing to act decisively to ensure a safe learning environment for all students would be a grave dereliction of your responsibilities as President of MIT and Chair of the MIT Corporation.
This Congress will not stand idly by and allow an environment hostile to Jewish students to persist. The House believes that your institution is in violation of Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, and the inability or
unwillingness to rectify this violation through action requires accountability.
Postsecondary education is a unique opportunity for students to learn and have their ideas and beliefs challenged. However, universities receiving hundreds of millions of federal funds annually have denied
students that opportunity and have been hijacked to become venues for the promotion of terrorism, antisemitic harassment and intimidation, unlawful encampments, and in some cases, assaults and riots.
The House of Representatives will not countenance the use of federal funds to indoctrinate students into hateful, antisemitic, anti-American supporters of terrorism. Investigations into campus antisemitism by the Committee on Education and the Workforce and the Committee on Ways and Means have been expanded into a Congress-wide probe across all relevant jurisdictions to address this national crisis. The undersigned Committees will conduct oversight into the use of federal funds at MIT and its learning environment under authorities granted to each Committee.
• The Committee on Education and the Workforce has been investigating your institution since December 7, 2023. The Committee has broad jurisdiction over postsecondary education, including its compliance with Title VI of the Civil Rights Act, campus safety concerns over disruptions to the learning environment, and the awarding of federal student aid under the Higher Education Act.
• The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is investigating the sources of funding and other support flowing to groups espousing pro-Hamas propaganda and engaged in antisemitic harassment and intimidation of students. The Committee on Oversight and Accountability is the principal oversight committee of the US House of Representatives and has broad authority to investigate “any matter” at “any time” under House Rule X.
• The Committee on Ways and Means has been investigating several universities since November 15, 2023, when the Committee held a hearing entitled From Ivory Towers to Dark Corners: Investigating the Nexus Between Antisemitism, Tax-Exempt Universities, and Terror Financing. The Committee followed the hearing with letters to those institutions on January 10, 202

Working Title:
Stop Motion
Audience:
My audience is a young male audience. From my primary research I have noticed that
some, if not the majority of younger males, (16-24) have said that films to do with time
travel are more entertaining than any other genre. Most maleswould prefer to watch an
action/adventure/fantasy film rather than any other genre. I believe my film would appeal to
younger males of this age group because it is a fantasy/adventure.
Project Concept (approx. 200 words)
The concept for my project is about a man who can freeze time using a watch. The plot is
that he finds a watch in he middle of nowhere that turns out to be a watch that can freeze
time. The man gets greedy with the watch and his own greed becomes his downfall. The
man then wakes up after thinking that him finding the watch was a dream but the camera
pans to his bedside table and on the table there is the exact same watch.
I have done research on a film that is about a man who can freeze time when he presses a
button on a camera. The reviews said that the plot didn’t make sense and that the ending
was disappointing. I am not sure if my ending will be disappointing, as some people like to
have a cliffhanger so they can make the ending up for themselves. I think my plot is fairly
developed as well so I won’t have problems with people not understanding what’s
happening.
Production Techniques (approx. 150 words)
For my film, I will definitely need to use postproduction techniques, as it is impossible to
freeze time. I will use Adobe Premiere to edit the clips and find a way to make it look like
I’ve frozen time. To achieve this I will probably follow a tutorial on YouTube, as I am not
fully knowledgeable in Adobe Premiere. If I find out that it is not possible to “freeze time”
within Adobe Premiere, I could maybe use another program such as Adobe After Effects. I
think using a tripod for the camera is mandatory for the majority of the clips apart from if
someone is running or there is action.
I do not think I will be using any other specialist techniques as I am trying to make my film
as real as possible with the exception of the magic watch. To create this realism, I do not
want to use specialist techniques such as green screen as this may ruin the authenticity.
I will keep my special effects to a minimal. For example, when the character uses the watch,
there might a sound effect and some smoke may come out of the watch but I do not want to
add anything to extravagant as this may ruin any existing realism. Having special effects
may make the film more exciting, but I don’t want to over use them.
I will keep the props to a minimal asthe watch is a very important and vital part to the story
so if I implement any other props, then the viewer may get confused. I think that keeping
props to a minimum may be very effective because then the viewer will be engaged on the
watch. However, minimal props may mean the story could be a bit boring.
Evaluation (approx. 50 words)
My evaluation will consist of things that I have done well within the film and things that I
haven’t done so well in. For example, if the story goes to plan and it makes sense then I will
definitely identify this in my evaluation as putting the story together could be the toughest
part of this project. Something I think that may go wrong is the quality of the acting. This
may contrast heavily with the desired authenticity but it something that will be worked on. I
will also state thing that need to be improved on in my evaluation.
