The short film uses effective cinematography and editing techniques to tell a science fiction story. Medium shots are used throughout to show both the protagonist and the environment as she explores the room she finds herself in. Close-ups express her emotions. Long shots establish a sense of isolation. A tracking shot at the end reveals her attempted escape was an illusion. The dark color scheme and advanced technology portrayed are conventions of the science fiction genre. The narrative follows a linear three-act structure as the protagonist first discovers her locked room, then attempts escape, only to find it was not possible.
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.

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.

Editing
Techniques
Many editingtechniquesare presentwithinthisfilm,
one mainexample wouldbe the use of visual effects
towardsthe end,for example the use of the portal
gun whichallowsthe protagonisttoteleportfrom
one locationtoanotherby placingportalsonsurfaces
and walkingthroughthem.Anothereditionof visual
effectscanbe seentowardsthe endwiththe wall
whichwasusedto fool the protagonistintothinking
that theyhad escapedhoweverIbelieve thiswas
achievedwiththe use of greenscreeningand
Computergeneratedimagerywithwhatisportrayed
behindthe wall.Ithinkthisjustbecause the
presentationdoesnotappeartobe as realisticas
seenfromthe beginningandtherefore makesme
thinkvisual effects.
