The document discusses the rise of rave culture in the UK in the late 1980s. Some key points: 1) Raves originated in the US and were imported to the UK in 1988, taking place in secret rural locations to avoid police intervention. 2) Raves featured new electronic music styles around 120 beats per minute and were strongly associated with drug use such as ecstasy and amphetamines. 3) The media initially condemned raves, associating them with cynically trapping youth into drug dependency. The death of an 18-year-old girl from ecstasy intensified negative media coverage.

This document provides an overview of the dance music culture and moral panics surrounding raves in the UK from 1988-1994. It discusses how acid house parties led to moral panics around drugs and unregulated gatherings. Police were given new powers to target raves through laws like the Criminal Justice Act of 1994.

Moral panics faded as perceptions shifted with the mainstreaming of the culture.

A moral panic typically follows a cycle of 1) a deviant act or crime occurring, 2) the media identifying and negatively portraying a subversive minority group as responsible, 3) a public outcry and demand for action, 4) the causes being oversimplified to find simple fixes, and 5) crackdowns on the minority group through new laws or policies. This cycle then repeats itself with future incidents. Examples provided include reactions to school shootings, ecstasy use, and the murder of toddler James Bulger.

Moral panic examples
This document discusses the media coverage of two tragic criminal events:
1) The Columbine school shooting in 1999 which led to widespread moral panic about the causes of youth violence. The media simplified explanations and policies focused more on punishment than addressing root issues.
2) The 1993 murder of toddler Jamie Bulger which became a debate about absent fathers, dysfunctional families, and violence in media. The media exaggerated claims about the influence of horror films and circulated misinformation to stir public outrage. In both cases, the media sensationalized the events and promoted simplistic explanations over exploring complex social and psychological factors.

2) The murder of James Bulger in 1993 which the media similarly blamed on absent fathers and violent media without evidence. They exaggerated the threats and stigmatized social groups to generate outrage.
Prohibition And The Prohibition Movement
- Prohibition was enacted through the 18th Amendment in 1920 and banned the production, sale, and transportation of alcohol nationwide. However, it had many unintended consequences and ultimately failed to achieve its goal of reducing alcohol consumption.
- Prohibition sparked a rise in illegal alcohol smuggling and organized crime. Criminal gangs fought for control of the lucrative illegal alcohol trade, leading to increased violence and corruption of law enforcement.
- By the late 1920s, it was clear that Prohibition had failed to achieve its moral aims and instead undermined respect for the law. Its repeal through the 21st Amendment in 1933 reflected a growing public sentiment that the costs of Prohibition outweighed any benefits.

Photo Analysis Gwill
The document analyzes a photo of Shane Hump lazily lounging on a beanbag in his dimly lit bedroom. School documents and workbooks are scattered on the floor and furniture to portray his lazy attitude towards schoolwork. His hand appears blurred because the photo aimed to capture him scratching himself, and the movement caused the blur.
Oscar Jeffery – Evaluation Of Chosen Images
This document evaluates several images being considered for a film about a character named Oscar. Image one shows Oscar and a woman with fruit, representing their relationship could grow sweet or sour. Image two shows the two characters at dinner, but is too dark. Image three shows the woman disgusted by something Oscar said. Image four will erase the background. Image five shows the woman standing over Oscar, showing her power over him. Image six continues the scene of the woman throwing water on Oscar. Image seven shows Oscar smiling in frustration. The ID card image represents Oscar as desperate for affection and in touch with his feminine side.
Planning For Photo Shoot
The document outlines the plans for a photo shoot to create a storyboard for a film project. It discusses the purpose of capturing visuals to help plan filming logistics and modify plot details. Five key locations are selected that relate to different character scenarios, including a bedroom, drama room, alleyway, and computer room. Equipment like cameras and tripods are delegated, as well as props like clothes, candles, and bottles to depict a romantic dinner scene. Character outfits are described to visually represent each role's personality through clothing style and color choices.
Film Hompages
Film homepages typically have the following elements:
1) They advertise the film and have the film trailer prominently displayed.
2) They look professional and stylish to catch viewers' attention.
3) They list the media companies that produced or funded the film.
4) They establish the film's color scheme and usually feature a large image of the main character.
Study Of Raves
The document discusses the rise of rave culture in the UK in the late 1980s. It describes how raves originated in the US and were imported to Britain in 1988. Raves were held secretly in rural locations like barns and airfields to avoid police intervention. They attracted thousands of attendees and generated significant profits. Raves introduced new electronic music styles to the UK and were strongly associated with drug use like ecstasy and LSD. The media initially condemned raves and emphasized their link to drugs, increasing public panic. Increased pressure led the government to pass the Public Order Act in 1994, giving police more power to shut down illegal raves.
Film Ideas
This document outlines ideas for introducing four characters in a film. Each character would get an introductory ID card showing basic facts. They would then be interviewed and asked a question related to their personality. This would be followed by a cameo shot contradicting the question, showing them doing something mischievous. For example, the first confident character is asked about jumping a random man. The characters are then given more depth through additional shots that provide more context into their true nature, with humorous scenarios that contrast what was said in the interview. The document concludes with a teaser that the film will be coming soon this summer.
ITV Research
This document discusses ITV, a British commercial television network. It summarizes that BSkyB owns 17.9% of ITV shares, making it the largest shareholder and able to influence ITV's strategies. OFCOM regulates ITV but has limited power to enforce fines, as ITV prioritizes profits over regulatory compliance. While ITV claims to have values like commitment and integrity, critics argue it promotes poorly constructed programs and lacks loyalty. Politically, ITV's affiliation is unclear but it is influenced by its corporate owners' priorities of commercialism over quality programming.
Rock N Rolla Media Presentation
RocknRolla is a 2008 crime comedy film directed by Guy Ritchie, starring Gerard Butler, Thandie Newton and Tom Wilkinson. Set in London, it follows a group of criminals and their interactions. Though it was commercially successful, grossing over $25 million worldwide, it received no major awards. The film received a 15 rating in the UK despite concerns about its violent and drug-related content. This rating helped contribute to its financial success by appealing to its target 15-18 year old audience.
