Our documentary follows conventions of the documentary genre by using a mix of interviews, narration, and observations to chronicle the topic of ice cream. It presents a single, linear narrative examining the popularity, production, health effects, and branding of ice cream. To maintain relevance and keep viewers engaged, we utilize establishing shots, cutaways during interviews to related imagery, archive footage, and graphics displaying interviewees' names and roles. We also employ conventions like a voiceover narrative, rule-of-thirds eye line in interviews, and a theme-setting sound bed in the title sequence. The documentary aims to explore both the appealing and truthful aspects of ice cream, as suggested by its title of "The Delicious Truth".

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.
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.
We all have good and bad thoughts from time to time and situation to situation. We are bombarded daily with spiraling thoughts(both negative and positive) creating all-consuming feel , making us difficult to manage with associated suffering. Good thoughts are like our Mob Signal (Positive thought) amidst noise(negative thought) in the atmosphere. Negative thoughts like noise outweigh positive thoughts. These thoughts often create unwanted confusion, trouble, stress and frustration in our mind as well as chaos in our physical world. Negative thoughts are also known as “distorted thinking”.
2. Type of documentary
The style of our documentary is mixed as it includes a
combination of interviews, narration and observation
as this helps to display our message clearly to the
audience and follows codes and conventions of other
documentaries as one I analysed ‘The Art of
Deception’ is also a mixed documentary and we have
followed the aspects similar to this documentary
3. Themes
Our documentary is in chronological order meaning
it is linear and has a closed narrative as the
message at the end is clear. The themes discussed
within our documentary are the popularity of ice
cream, how ice cream is made, the health effects
and branding of ice cream with the overall theme
being ice cream and the truth behind it hence our
title ‘the delicious truth’. Our documentary is
single strand as it has this overall theme which
links to codes ad conventions of other
documentaries as they are usually single strand.
4. Mise en scene
For the mise en scene we paid close attention to the surroundings and
settings within each location and made sure that it was relevant to the
theme and topics suggested as this is what most documentaries follow
such as Saving Thailand’s Animals. We had some initial issues with some of
our first shots not having relevant mise en scene but we resolved this by
carefully planning out the interview shots so we could be successful. I
have shown relevance of the topic through mise en scene by thinking
about the background of the video for instance, below is a screenshot of
one of our interviews in which we made sure that the background was of
the ice cream cafe as our topic was of ice cream and different flavours so
this created relevancy of the whole theme of the documentary.
5. Eye line
Following codes and conventions of other professional documentaries we made sure
the eye line followed the rule of thirds and the interviewee was never looking
directly at the camera but at the interviewer and at a diagonal angle. We also had
problems with this within one of our first interviews but resolved this by practising
the angle and perfecting it before we continued to re-film. Using the rule of thirds
means that the audiences eyes have to follow the object, which is a person in this
case, instead of just focusing their eyes in the centre throughout the whole scene
which can create boredom. So we have counteracted this by keeping the audience
interested as they are able to focus on different parts of the screen. I have used
Saving Thailand’s Animals documentary as a comparison to my own documentary.
6. Cutaways
Following codes and conventions of other documentaries we found that many
cutaways were used even whilst interviewees were talking so as to create
relevance to what they were talking about. For example, when talking
about favourite flavours in our documentary we made sure to get a
cutaway of the massive board they had at Cheshire Ice Cream Farm
containing all the flavours they had. Cutaways, cease boredom and keep
the audience interested as their is more to look at and creates relevancy
to the topic instead of just the interviewee or voiceover speaking, their is
a cutaway to relate to what is being spoken about. I have again used
Saving Thailand’s Animals as a comparison documentary
7. Archive material
Again, following codes and conventions we used archive material
which again creates relevance to what the interviewee or
narrator was talking about and links to the theme and topics
being discussed within the documentary. This also makes it
more interesting as using different cuts keeps the audience
engaged and want to keep watching hence our reasoning to
sticking to these conventions and including them in our
documentary.
8. Graphics
Using codes and conventions of professional documentaries and referring to
Saving Thailand’s Animals as a comparison, I have used graphics on the
screen in the form of the interviewees name and occupation. This is
important as it creates relevancy and gives them an identity, it also enables
the audience to identify who they are and what relevance they have to the
topic and what they are actually discussing.
9. Voiceover
• We have used a voiceover within our documentary to relate
to other professional documentaries and follow codes and
conventions of documentaries. A voiceover is important as it
creates a narrative and a story line for the documentary and
makes it flow easily, it also helps the storyline progress as it
can transition one topic to the other by use of discussion and
comparison.
10. Sound Bed
A sound bed is used to create a theme or mood of the documentary for
example a happy tune would connote a happier, positive message or
theme. Using codes and conventions of professional documentaries, I have
included a sound bed within the title sequence so as to set the initial tone
of the documentary which is of a happier note as ice cream connotes
happiness and people eat it to be happy whereas later on throughout the
documentary the topic changes to a more negative note of the bad effects
on health which we have used to link in with the title of ‘The Delicious
Truth’ and aim to ‘expose’ the truth.
