The thing that makes musicals so different amongst other films is that it builds a story from works of original music. I admire the ability to write a piece of music, but I admire it even more when another composer comes in with the same piece of music and the sound comes out completely different. In a way they enhance the sound and perfect upon it. Moulin Rouge is an excellent example of this. The writers and composers combine elements of theater, opera, traditional cinema, and numerous elements

This transcript, an extract taken from one of the creative writing controlled assessments I submitted for my GCSE English Language studies, is a sociolect between two East-End Londoners. The complicity and the natural language employed within this private exchange denote a long-term relationship between two middle-class, middle-aged women, on the same intellectual level who are having a tease - a literal 'dig'- winding each other while carrying out casual gardening work. The social attitudes towards

English GCSE Media Coursework 1. How does advertising reinforce gender stereotypes? Today in the late 1990’s we can not escape advertising it bombards us from all types of media and every aspect of our lives. It is a multibillion-pound industry that stereotypes genders and tells us what we could become if we use certain products. Men being portrayed as cool, tough, athletic and stylish reinforce the gender stereotypes. One advert I have studied which reinforces the male stereotype

International week The local hotel in my area is holding an international week. As the trainee chef I have been invited to take part and have been asked to prepare a two course meal from a country of my choice. Planning: I have chosen this task because I thought it would be quite interesting as we get to explore many different countries and their foods. I am also very passionate about international food. This was also a very good way to learn new cooking skills the country may use. I had

1) Summarize the plot of the piece. If you feel that there was no plot, describe the sequence of events in the performance. The dance piece was composed of several story lines and plots. There was a piece in which it there was a guy and a girl who with their dance movements expressed hate and love. Other dances expressed the path to finding freedom, loneliness, and time. 2) What themes or ideas was the piece trying to convey? How did the piece convey its ideas?

“And for some unexplainable reason, the crowd goes wild every time. When dancers kick in unison, in one big wonderful line.” (Kirkpatrick & Kirkpatrick 2015) It is definitely hard not to relate my theatergoing experience to this lyrics from Something Rotten! when I saw it in preview in Spring 2015. The song play spoof on the memorable finale of A Chorus Line where Brian D’Arcy James and Brad Oscar did high kicks with the ensemble recreating the legendary finale to the 1975 musical. A finale

Excellent Audiovisual Design Lone Survivor's high-quality soundtrack facilitates the horror extremely well. Its versatility allows it to call upon eerie, foreboding ambient tracks, reminiscent of the experimental noise genre, to establish an oppressive ambiance; which coats Lone Survivor's quieter moments sinisterly. The dread infused by the soundtrack is largely responsible for elevating proceedings from odd to creepy, and freaky to terrifying; exemplified by the pause instilled in the player when

loop. Studying Geography throughout GCSE and A-Level has taught me key skills, such as analysing key pieces of data after completing fieldwork. The joy that comes from working as a team to complete field work is unlike any other. In particular completing a full river profile of the river Chess taught me to clearly communicate with members of my team on a regular basis for example, to be able to measure the river’s velocity. My skills have also developed from GCSE by writing numerous essays on the carbon

My hospital bed was ice cold and the bleak and empty white walls depressed me as the uncomforting thought that I would have to stay here for maybe another week brought tears to my eyes. The usual and oppressive smell of disinfectant lingered in the room as I recalled that night in my head, trying to convince myself it wasn’t my fault, as I had done everyday since the accident. It was the day everything changed and my life was turned upside down. Forever. Provocatively decorated caravans snaked to

What's to be said about metal that hasn't been said yet? The genre has crawled out from the darkness and the popularity of it has sparked numerous respectable bands and plenty of forgettable ones. Nevertheless, there are always those few bands rooted so deep into the genre that the appearance they settle with in doom metal appears to be their natural state. Releasing their 15th album since their formation in 1988, Halifax, England's Paradise Lost is one of the godfathers of the genre, fluctuating
