Pushing Passed The Pain

7. What do I want my audience to think, do, feel, or believe after reading my message?

I never gave much thought into what it takes to shoot, direct, edit, and complete a motion picture. Sure, it may sound fun, but after this assignment, it felt like a lot of work. There are quite a few specialized groups that put together the films that we enjoy in our movie theatres. No wonder why it takes months and even years to edit a film, these folks are making sure things are done and synced correctly! The following essay will identify information pertaining to film and importance for their audience so the person or persons watching can have an understanding of what it is they are viewing. A story that has no meaning or becomes very confusing in the details that are presented does not make a good film.

What is the tone of this video? What is the purpose? Who is the audience? Did you like the video, or not? Why?

The reader is sent a message of learning to view others people’s points to be able to understand them.

E. Identify very briefly author’s intended audience(s): Author’s intended

Persuading an audience is not a simple feat to accomplish as some may think. In actuality, it forces people to look beyond themselves and their

For this assignment I have chosen to focus on the film Good Will Hunting primarily because I have seen the movie prior to this course and I feel it is one of the best films I have gotten a chance to see. Will Hunting's profound genius was as much a burden as it was a gift. Initially seeing the film I enjoyed it but viewing the film in the scope of all that I have learned in this course made the viewing experience much more meaningful, as I now had a deeper understanding of Will's internal conficts, and how they directly effected his relationships, beliefs, and actions. The film is an excellent example of the issues involving interpersonal communication and how they play a part in either making or breaking our

Thematic Statement: Forgiving someone for their mistake can make yourself free of anger and bitterness.

By appealing to the sense of family, the audience can relate to the potential emotions that one would experience losing a family member. Moreover, his inclusion helps to appeal to the families who have experienced the aforementioned loss.

If our lives become unproductive, we feel guilty which often leads to depression and uselessness. All in all, the film opened my mind on how life goes through stages and the unexpected turns through it

At some point in our lives we are all faced with difficult emotional discomfort. One of the toughest parts is choosing what we perceive to be the right course of action. “Forgiveness is essential for healing and experiencing our wholeness. Yet, in order to experience our wholeness, no part of us can be repressed, denied, or overlooked” (Casarjian, pg. 48). This part of the book was very relatable to me.

“Forgiveness, assert Fincham and his colleagues, can help restore more benevolent and cooperative goals to relationships” Everett L. Worthington, Jr.(2004). New Science of Forgiveness.

Charles defended himself with the help of an attorney Irving Kanarek. The jury finds all of the murderers guilty and sentenced to the death penalty. California abolishes the death penalty, therefore they all are sentenced to life in prison. In 2012, denied for parole for the 12th time, Charles gets rejected on the accounts of his 108 serious disciplinary violations in prison since 1971 and not showing any sign of remorse for the murders.

Individual Educational Plans (IEPS) are a way in which teachers and the school system can address special services that provide programs for children with delayed skills or disabilities. A child that has difficulty learning and functioning and may be identified as a special needs student is the type of candidate for an IEP. However, in order for there to be a fairer way to administer and develop programs so that children may take advantage of them, there is a process and set of procedures necessary prior to implementing the IEP that is important so that fairness and equality are assured. In fact, one of the Special Education Standards, III, notes "The special education teacher knows how to communicate and collaborate effectively in a variety of professional settings." (See Ahearn, 2006).

“She was drinking, what did she expect?" This is the first thing that goes through some people’s minds when they hear the tragic story of a woman who was taken advantage of while she was intoxicated at a party. Rarely, do people think of the man who could have stopped what he was doing and realized that the woman was not in her right state of mind. This is just another real-life experience and example of Rape Culture. Rape culture has had an impact on everyone in today's society. While it is sometimes noticed and most times unnoticed, it is a big social issue that needs to be stopped.
