Zombieland analysis newwww
The title sequence of Zombieland establishes the key settings of America through depictions of highways, cars, prisons, and money. It portrays themes of comedy, horror, violence, and social anarchy through scenes of zombies attacking people from all walks of life. The iconography follows horror/comedy conventions through its use of gore, depictions of societal power structures being overturned, and zombies pursuing innocent victims.
Rom-Com Research
The document discusses conventions of romantic comedy (rom-com) movies. It notes that rom-coms appeal to those in love or hoping to be, featuring characters doing silly things due to distraction of love. The plots typically involve obstacles keeping an obvious couple apart until marriage at the end. Rom-coms also feature stereotypical gender roles, with the male protagonist struggling to win over the female. Common elements include rivals, misunderstandings separating the couple, and reunions ending happily.
Genre analysis
The document provides an analysis of the action and comedy genres in film. It discusses key elements and conventions of action films, such as fast pacing, chase scenes, guns, and a hero defeating a technically advanced enemy.

Charlie Chaplin was an important early comedian known for his "Tramp" character. Examples of successful action-comedy films that blend the two genres, like "Police Academy" and "Beverly Hills Cop," are provided. The document also lists top-grossing recent comedies, many of which are animated films.

Casting
The document discusses the writer and director's choices in casting the lead roles for their film. The writer chose themselves to play the lead protagonist because they have the best understanding of the character's backstory. The lead plays two characters from different time periods, and was able to capture the movements and feelings of each character. The second lead was chosen because they could perform their own stunts and bring emotion to their conflicted character. The female lead from the 18th century setting was good for her part as she could perform her own stunts and had superior acting compared to other actresses considered for the role.

Film opening analysis kain
In the opening scene of the film, we are introduced to the Driver, a mysterious getaway driver. He is shown talking on the phone about his job while wearing a distinctive satin racing jacket with a golden scorpion. Through low lighting and little dialogue, he is established as a dark and brooding character. Later scenes show him meeting his only friend Shannon and driving a discreet silver Chevrolet Impala instead of a flashy sports car. A police chase ensues after one of his jobs but is filmed in a slow, tense style from inside the car rather than as an exaggerated Hollywood action sequence. This challenges conventions and draws the audience into experiencing the chase through the Driver's perspective.

There are many ways to analyze films and their genres, including considering codes and conventions. An auteur director breaks conventions by adding their own style. Francis Ford Coppola is an example, breaking conventions in Apocalypse Now by having a village attacked without warning. Napoleon Dynamite has no narrative structure with a clear beginning, middle and end. Sixth Sense is a narrative film with a twist ending. Some films objectify women as in Quantum of Solace, while Leon takes risks by having a young girl develop feelings for the main character. Francis Ford Coppola is renowned for films like The Godfather, while Rian Johnson mixes genres in original films. Auteur directors stand out by putting their individual style and twists

Auteur theory posits that certain directors like Quentin Tarantino, Francis Ford Coppola, and Wes Craven have unique styles and prioritize original artistic expression over commercial success, earning them status as "auteurs". Genre analysis specifically looks at seven elements: codes and conventions, setting, characters, themes, narrative, iconography, and ideological messages. These elements are

Assessment and Planning in Educational technology.pptx
In an education system, it is understood that assessment is only for the students, but on the other hand, the Assessment of teachers is also an important aspect of the education system that ensures teachers are providing high-quality instruction to students. The assessment process can be used to provide feedback and support for professional development, to inform decisions about teacher retention or promotion, or to evaluate teacher effectiveness for accountability purposes.

A Strategic Approach: GenAI in Education
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.
