The document discusses how the media project challenges conventions of real media products. It analyzes shots from thriller openings that were inspirational. Shots include titles with unconventional coloring, transitions between shots to imply quick events, close-ups to understand characters' emotions, and lighting used to tell parts of the story. The document also discusses how research into different thriller music and analyzing other openings helped develop the project. Feedback from social media was used to improve the work to better suit the target audience. Unique aspects like characters from different eras give the project an edge over other thrillers by subverting expectations.
Geschiedenis van Twitter Marketing en hoe het advertentieplatform van Twitter over de afgelopen 5 jaar is uitgebreid. Aangeboden door http://blog4leads.nl
Twitter kent inmiddels tienduizenden adverterende bedrijven die via allerlei marketingmiddelen huidige en nieuwe volgers gebruiken. De diverse uitbreidingen van het advertentieplatform zorgen voor betere marketingcampagnes.
Nadat Twitter de inkomsten uit advertenties sinds 2011 ieder jaar sterk heeft verhoogd lijkt ook 2015 weer een jaar te worden waarin er steeds meer omzet gegenereerd zal worden.
2014 was het eerste jaar waarin Twitter meer dan 1 miljard dollar uit advertentieinkomsten haalde. Als zij de stijging van afgelopen jaren doorzetten dan lijkt 2015 het jaar te worden waarop het sociale netwerk meer dan 2 miljard uit de advertenties haalt.

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.

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
Embracing GenAI - A Strategic ImperativePeter 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.

1. Evaluation: Question one
Question 1: In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge
forms and conventions of real media products?
There were many ways in which I had used real media products to develop and challenge
my own thriller opening. Doing this has helped me have a deeper understanding of how
certain things work in the media business, it has also helped me in general with making my
thriller opening the best it could be. Within the process I have used different types of
platforms, inspirations and conducted a lot of research that I felt could help me with my
thriller opening.
One professional media product that I had used throughout the production process was
researching different types of thriller music, from professional to non-professional films, it
helped me develop a wider range of knowledge on thrillers and what worked and what didn’t
work in regards of making a thriller to attract your audience. Knowing this I had looked into a
various amount of music connecting to thriller openings however, I felt that I could adapt and
apply only two openings to my own thriller opening regarding my target audience, as my
audience members were 16+. I felt that something with excitement and adventure would be
perfect to keep them glued to the screen (“Intruders”) subsequently; I felt that having a
steady beat throughout (Music from media students) would cause tension levels to sub-
consciously rise. When referring to older audience members I felt like they wouldn’t enjoy
obvious tension changes because they would lose interest and have more experience in
watching thrillers. Therefore I feel like my media project has challenged most real media
products, as I have catered for my target audience perfectly by merging two types of thriller
music’s together. I have done this by using research of different types of thriller music and
developed a deeper understanding by applying it to my own thriller, which meant my music
challenges all other real thrillers.
Also I have used a various amount of media platforms to develop a deeper understanding of
my target audience. Using these media platforms I gained feedback and ways to improve my
thriller opening, I had uploaded the rough cut in a variety of places such as: YouTube and
Facebook and I had uploaded the music specifically onto sound cloud. After getting the
feedback I had taken advantage of what my target audience was wanting and had made
many changes to make it more applicable to them. That is how I have used and developed
a convention to benefit my thriller opening. As well as this I have used the different forms of
media such as serial dramas and thrillers movies to develop a storyline (this can be seen as
the inspiration) this being the case it has helped me challenge real media products as I had
fused all the best mystery together to create a fantastic storyline.
Through research and analysis it helped develop and increase my knowledge further, I had
conducted research of the different types of production logos that would help interest my
target audience. Doing this it developed my thriller opening as it made it more unique. Also I
had analysed a selection of TV dramas and movie openings to gain ideas and help improve
my analysis skills. Doing research and analysis enabled me to increase the likeability of my
thriller, meaning it challenges real media products.
Lastly the uniqueness of our thriller film, e.g. the young girls’ character wore an old
fashioned dress whilst the young male had a more youthful dress sense, showing the
differences in characters. This challenges most thriller movies as they only focus on one era,
but by our thriller film looking like it was set in different eras it gives it that edge, therefore
challenging other real media products

Question 1: In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge
forms and conventions of real media products?
This collage has a selection of shots from real thriller openings that have inspired me throughout the media project, the
photos in the collage consist of the most effective shots that I feel are relevant and can cause an effect on the audience.
1. The first shot I felt was effective as the colour of the titles are white and the font size is small I found this peculiar
as white usually connotes purity and innocence. However, this completely juxtaposes what thrillers represent as
thrillers are usually are symbolised with dark colours and tones of red. By the titles being white it gives a different
impression which leads the audience on a different journey, meaning that when the dark and sinister scenes
appear it will be more of a shock to the audience.
2. This shot was a Gripping shot as the title missing had an in shot fade which I found effective as the colours
contrasted each other meaning the title had stood out. Also all of the titles within thriller opening were white,
however when reaching the end the colour of the titles turned to black. This connotes that the overall story line is
dark and mysterious.
3. The third shot from the thriller opening of the missing shows flashing transitions into different shots, this implies
that what happens is very quick and could be regretted. Also the colours (yellow/orange/white) remind me of
someone covering their eyes with their hands and ever so slightly being able to see the light. This suggests that
within this thriller someone gets kidnapped or restricted of view.
4. The fourth shot is from the thriller mayday, it is a close up of a young girl, this shot emphasises her facial
expressions and allows the audience to get a deeper understanding of how she is feeling and in this case shows
the pure innocence she has. Shows the innocence of the girl possesses this is an example of showing a
stereotypical social group of gender. The girl is portrayed as being helpless and dazed, which suggests that she
is the main character.
5. This is again from the drama series called Mayday and the blurry shot is showing a series of contrasting colours
(the background is black which connotes death and hate. Whereas the bright white lights could represent the
hope people hold when in dark and scary situations.) Which attracts the audience leaving them intrigued and
almost confused as it isn’t clear as to where the location is. The lights are presented like torches in the
background this insinuates a search party is looking for something or someone and that the light represents the
faith they have whilst searching. Also there is a thin twig that is in focus right at the front of the shot, this can
imply that for who they are looking for is fragile and vulnerable.
6. The shot is again from the drama series Mayday, it is showing a tree being drowned in light as it looks as if it is
dissolving from the middle. The bright lights are formed from a flood of car lights which takes over the majority of
the shot, this reminds me of films that have death be represented as “seeing the light”. Having this knowledge it
suggests to me that someone could possibly dead and that they could have died because of a moving vehicle as
the light is presented by car lights.
7. This is Mayday’s main title, I feel that the colour red contrasts black beautifully as it makes the title more
noticeable and connotes danger, death, violence and trauma. Also the font of the title is childlike and as though
writing stencil was used to write it, this suggests that the thriller drama is surrounded by children.
8. This is a shot showing a team of forensics are entering a little boys room after he shortly died so they could get
clues. The lighting plays a crucial role within this shot as it could tell a story on its own, there are several dull and
dark areas which take up most of the shot in the hallway, dark and dull areas connote death and tragedy.
However there is a beam of light that looks like it is coming from a room, this preferably being the little boys’
room, suggesting the boy was happy and content with his life. With there just being one beam of light it suggests
that the boy was surrounded by danger and death but didn’t know as he was happy with life, it also can suggest
that it was someone he knew that killed him as thee dark areas are surrounding him.
9. Shot number nine shows an authoritative figure standing behind a barbed wire however he is not in focus the
barbed wire is, this suggests that he is solely interested and focused on crime and danger so much so he puts it
before himself. As he is standing on the other side of the barbed wire it implies he doesn’t agree with crime,
within the drama series this is exactly what he does as he is known to have a heart condition but puts the case
first.
4. Evaluation: Question one
Question 1: In what ways does your media product use, develop or challenge
forms and conventions of real media products?
1. This close up of the young girl picking and playing with the grass implies thatshe is still young, it also creates a calming atmosphere.
As she is picking grass itis as if it is foreshadowing thatshe is picked to get snatched.I have slowed down this action and had it in
slow motion this helped emphasis thatshe will be kidnapped.
2. This shot is our production logo which is also red which connotes danger and death, I also added a white bright glow to
representfaith and heaven. I had put these together as you would usuallyassociated danger and heaven together,this makes the
audience think and question if what is going to happen is evil or not.
3. This was inspired bythe broadchurch shotabove (9) I had wanted the girl to look and be fixated on the balloon thatshe forg ets the
world around her, to do so we blurred the background and made the balloon in focus to emphasis this message.
4. This close up was inspired bythe Mayday shotabove (4) I felt that by having a close up of the main character will enforce a sense of
sympathy on the target audience as her facial expression is shocked and terrified.
5. This was inspired bythe mayday lighting shotas I felt the lights signified faith and hope,but more importantlyI felt that it highly
emphasised a search team.However there is a difference between the Mayday shotand my thriller as the shotI am presenting is
blurry as I wanted it to representthe uncertainty of what happened to her and that the faith that the people hold is very slim.
6. This is an extreme long shotof a balloon in the far distance,the balloon representing the girl and the blue sky representin g the world,
this emphasises thatshe is alone in the world and is slowlygetting lostin the distance.
7. My thriller logo is inspired by the mayday title as I liked the colour choices as they contrasted each other well,I did on the other hand
change the font and the width of the title. This is because byhaving the same fontas it wouldn’trepresentmythriller efficiently,
therefore I made the font thin to emphasises thatshe is either missing,and gives a clue that someone is hiding her.
8. This shothas brightflashing lights this helps heighten the tension and adds to the fast pace editing.It signalises thatthe young girl
character is scared and frightened that she is thinking irrationally.
9. This extreme long shotshows how they don’treally know each other as they have larges spatial gaps between them,also there are
elements ofediting in this as it we have purposelyblurred the shotto representconfusion and illusion.
