Altman proposed that film genre can be analyzed on two levels: macro and micro. The macro level refers to the stories films tell, focusing on syntactic elements like characters and plot points. The micro level analyzes how those stories are presented semantically, through stylistic elements such as camerawork, editing, music, and visual motifs. For example, in the teen slasher genre, macro features include absent authority figures and stock characters, while micro features incorporate techniques like masked killers, point-of-view shots, and tense musical stings.

Evaluation question 1
This document discusses the conventions of psychological thriller films and how the author's film challenges some of those conventions. Psychological thrillers typically feature a masked villain who murders multiple people for revenge or other motives. However, the author's film does not have a masked character, but instead focuses on a college student who is an imbecile and murders a fellow student in a moment of anger after learning about his father's history as a murderer. This plot deviates from the common tropes of the genre by not featuring a masked or serial killer as the main character. The film aims to challenge expectations by presenting a storyline that may be less appealing to audiences accustomed to the typical psychological thriller format.
Horror films hand out
1. Horror films attempt to scare audiences through the use of techniques like atmospheric music, lighting, editing, and camera techniques. However, what truly creates fear is tapping into the real cultural fears of the target audience.
2. Different eras have different cultural fears, so horror films must change their monsters and threats over time to remain relevant. Early 20th century horrors featured external monsters like vampires that threatened communities from the outside, while modern horrors also depict internal monsters and threats from within communities.
3. By analyzing the type of monster in a horror film, one can gain insights into the specific cultural fears of the time period. Horror monsters have transitioned from purely external threats to include man-made

Example Horror Essay
The genre of a film is determined mainly by its conventions, which are consistent elements that allow films to be easily produced and understood by audiences. Conventions serve as a blueprint for genre films, and can be adapted innovatively or followed rigidly.
Horror films aim to frighten and invoke fear in audiences through terrifying climaxes, using familiar conventions. Key conventions in horror include isolated, frightening settings like the woods in The Blair Witch Project or a subway in Creep. Horror films also commonly feature weapons and masks used by killers to attack victims up close. Techniques like the point-of-view shot are used to place audiences in the killer's perspective and heighten fear, as in Halloween and Psycho

LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.

Theory of macro and micro elements of genre
- 1. Theory of Macro and Micro elements of Genre Altman: media theorist who stated that film genre can be talked about in two ways: 1.Syntactic (macro): the stories that the film tells 2.Semantic (micro): how these stories are presented
- 2. Example: Teen Slasher Genre Micro (semantic) features: •Low key lighting and use of shadows •POV camerawork through eyes of killer •Slow pace of editing to lure us into thinking everything is ok, followed by fast pace during moments of high tension •Fluid moving handheld camera •Urgent, persistent music raising tension, and moment of silence to raise tension •Use of a mask to hide identity of killer •Use of murder weapon – often a knife Macro (syntactic) features: •Absence of parents/authority figures •Predominant cast of teenage/young adults •Popular blonde, geek, jock, and other stock characters dominate •Loner killer known by characters – identity revealed at end •Theme of revenge •Series of brutal killings – main characters solve crimes
- 3. For example Scream (1996) POV shot - allows audience to see what the character is seeing. Mask to hide the killer's identity, creating mystery. Weapons - knife she plays with the knife foreshadows what could or is going to happen. Typical blonde Teenager Macro Micro Absence of parents/authority figure
