The movie poster emphasizes the main characters in the film Tris and Four (the female and male protagonist respectively). They seem to be watching the whole place in one of the highest building in the setting. We can also see that the Tris stands in Four’s back while Four is crouching facing the other way. We can also see crows flying not very far away from them, a Ferris wheel, and cables for zip lining. The poster also has a quote “what makes you different makes you dangerous”. The position of the characters in the poster shows that they are watching each other’s back preparing for something. The male was carrying a weapon so it means that they are being cautious and ready to fight whenever an opponent occurs. They are standing in the highest building in the setting which had an importance in the story because it is one of the fears of the male protagonist, while the crows are one of the fears of the female protagonist. The background seems to be gloomy, like there is a war that happening on that place. The Ferris wheel is the place where the leading characters have a moment with each other and …show more content…
The story says that after a terrible war, the rest of the world was destroyed and they are the only survivors. The buildings were projected in a straight line like the cover was saying that it was the only place you can live on. In the story, the survivors were divided into five groups or what they call “Factions” and they have symbols while the Divergent haven’t because they are the people whose faction can’t be determined by the system. The logo in the Book Cover can be symbol of the Divergent. The symbol seems to be a small fireball and a ring of fire that surrounds it. The fire shows strength and power. The logo seems to be projected in the center of the city like it means that group will be the one who will rule over the city. The setting has a stormy weather, like there are unpleasant events happening in the
in the mural "Going to the Olympics, 1984" by Frank Romero what i see on the first image is cars, palm trees, hearts, people fighting, an iron, and an Olympic stamp. each image on this mural has a meaning. The meaning of the cars and the hearts above the cars show that since we are in Los Angeles people in this City love their cars. they cannot do much without their cars, the cars are in a ow because in the freeway their is always traffic, their is always a car behind another. The palm trees also symbolizes Los Angeles because when driving by the freeway you are able to see plenty of palm trees throughout the way. the mural shows an image of to people wrestling because it represents the Olympics. their is another image which is the Olympic
Overall, it seems like there are many people in society now living in our present life. Their society is developing and improving a little bit because of people at the bottom with shackled hands whom are under the influence of the three figures who have a bigger dream and look at higher world. Each of them in the painting has an object on their hands. These seem to be important clues to interpret this painting. One is holding a book, second is holding a jar or flask and third one is holding handwriting, directing or measuring tools of an architect with compass. And there is a globe
Books were marching together to bring the knowledge lost long ago. Rebirth of life can occur with the progress of freedom. They faced the city covered in ash, and full of curiosity. Montag thought of nothing but hope for brighter days; To accept what’s in the past. His mind running rapidly at full capacity, yet there’s still a fog. The aftermath? Montag and his group of once book burners continue into the distance wondering about every little detail of the rebirth. The city looked of nothing but motionless. It was silent. The only thing making noise was the winds from the bomb that went off hours ago. There were pieces of metal from the bomb lodged into the dirt in every direction. Montag slowly pauses af the sounds of foot
Visual imagery is often the first step to subconsciously sending the reader into a parallel state of mind as the protagonist, and letting them experience what the characters experienced throughout the story. The visuals used in the beginning of this story convince readers that they have been placed in a safe, secure environment, therefore having a positive effect on readers when they
An apocalypse brings destruction and ruin to all humanity, but no catastrophe ends civilization as fast as the disaster in Station Eleven by Emily St. John Mandel. A worldwide pandemic, the Georgia Flu, wipes out 99% of the global population. The deadly virus replaced the world with a dystopian land. In this dystopia, the world suddenly transforms, and although few survivors over the years have attempted to rebuild the lost civilization, the past and a mysterious prophet follows them. At the beginning of the world’s ending, one man, Jeevan, witnessed the change in society’s behavior. Services that were available pre-collapse vanished, and life suddenly became a free-for-all. For the survivors over the years, some people wanted to reminisce
The smell of burning flesh is repugnant. It lingers on every street corner, on every piece of cloth, in every shallow breath. The sky is red. Glowing through black clouds that are heavy with the ashes of those who have stopped screaming. More than three thousand tonnes of high explosive bombs are dropped. Again. Again. Again. Just like dust caught in a sunbeam, the ash swirls a slow descent. The air pulls in. Pauses. Pressure building. The blood in your veins almost recoils, your brain bruised in your skull. A moment of vertigo. Then nothing but noise. Loud. Angry. Ringing. And pain, so much pain. Screams rise, the crescendo approaches. Hellfire rips through the buildings, the sky, the people, your heart. This city is a firestorm.
I am writing you this letter to ask for an appeal in your decision to deny my request to leave trig: analysis. I do not need this class to graduate with an advanced diploma. I do not need this class to get into any colleges that I am applying to. In fact, this class would actually hurt my chances of getting into the colleges I want. I would like to go to college for cultural anthropology. I do not need higher maths such as trig: analysis for this major.
In the novel, A complicated kindness, the protagonist Naomi contemplates on escaping from her fundamentalist hometown. Her melancholic bond with the hometown as for its kindness, even though she’s “homesick at home”, and her problem with progressing towards an actual end, tragically leave her out in the community where she gets deserted. In this regard this story is a tragedy. While the narration breaks the conventional line of storytelling about runaway, it unfolds in irony as to balance or to counter the dark events. In this way this story is a comedy. For these reasons a film adaptation of the novel will fall into comedy-drama genre. On the poster of this movie the hand drawn picture represents one of the ironies that comes in the narration,
It was burnt to the ground and most had not gotten out. There was not a single person still living in the city, but I could still hear them. The screams of their last moments before the flames destroyed all were ringing in my ears. It got louder and louder as I sobbed. How could I let this happen? How could I not help all those people to save a tiny family that should even exist? Soon, after what felt like hours of crying, I looked out over the city once more. I could see the future of it being rebuilt and families returning to the once said place. What gave me the most comfort was seeing the small family of three helping all others the came in contact with. They and their descendants would help all, but be remembered by only
This is a representation of the coldness of the character that is behind the window, and is blurred within the fog. The use of mise-en-scene is also used in the background that you can see behind the window which is of a forest. This is determined by the clustered trees that are crowded behind the character at the front. This is a cliche in horror films as it is a setting that a lot of horror films use, as a forest is a place that has a creepy atmosphere when dark and is a vulnerable place to be, as it is unrecognizable to you. The use of lighting is used to silhouette the character, this makes her the main focus of attraction. It also blocks out any view of anything else behind them and therefore forcing the viewer to look at the character. This is effective in asserting the audience that this is a horror film.The last use of mise-en-scene that is used in order to make it more bright and to make it stand out is the use of costume. The use of costume isn't fully focused on this poster but it is helpful in finishing off the full image of the atmosphere that it is trying to create. The T-shirt is dirty and torn, which can represent a struggle that it took for the character to come this way.
In Trifles, Susan Glaspell debates the roles between men and women during a period where a debate was not widely conducted. Glaspell wrote Trifles in the early 1900s—a time when feminism was just getting started. In this play, Glaspell shows us her perspective on the roles of men and women and how she believes the situation would play out. Trifles seems like another murder mystery on the surface, but the play has a much more profound meaning behind it. Glaspell presents the idea that men and women analyze situations differently, and how these situations are resolved based on how we interpret them. Research shows that women’s brains “may be optimized for combining analytical and intuitive thinking.” On the other hand, male brains are predominately “optimized for motor skills and actions” (Lewis). In the play, this research shows true when the women, Mrs. Hale and Mrs. Peters, analyze details rather than looking at the apparent, physical evidence, and they find out the motive of the murder. The men, on the other hand, look at broader evidence that does not lead to any substantial conclusion. When Glaspell was writing this play, she wanted the women to be the real instigators, the ones that would end up solving the mystery. While the men in the story laugh at the ‘trifles’ that women worry about, these details mean a great deal in Glaspell’s eyes. Glaspell presents the idea what men and women are different in the way they live their lives through detail.
At the extreme right, a woman is falling and has not yet hit the ground. Further left, a woman is picking herself up after falling. The horse in the center is fatally wounded and will soon die. To the far left, the child in his mother’s arms has already died, and so has the warrior whose head rests at the bottom of the mural. But again, the strong right to left movement arises from the direction in which the subjects are looking.
In Susan Glaspell’s play Trifles, written in 1916, two female characters are left in the kitchen of a house where a murder has been committed, while the menfolk search around for clues. The men largely ignore the women and are mocking of them and their petty concerns on the occasions that they do speak to them. While the men are about looking for the “cold hard facts” of the murder, the women are in the kitchen bothering with “trifles” that display all of the details about the wife’s life and, most probably, her motivation for the murder. In this play, Susan Glaspell has written male characters that clearly display the “Ethics of Justice”, a sort of right is right and wrong is wrong view; while the women clearly embody the “Ethics of Care”, a view that takes relationships and feelings into account when judging the morality of actions.
What is happiness? The essay, “Three Simple Things,” the author gave us the definition of happiness from Dictionary.com as "an active or passive state of pleasure or satisfaction." In his own special way, the author writes about how friends, families, and his belief in God are the things that make him happy the most. Sure people may feel their happiness is being healthy and alive. There are many things that could make me happy, but the three that make me happy the most is spending time with my three girls, being with families, and fishing.
In the movie of The Conjuring, in certain instances it foreshadows a witch which is considered as a dark presence.
