1. Openly Credits: Girls Just Want To Have Fun- Cyndi Lauper This is an old and feminist song but I interpreted it in the way that I’m not the only one who wants to have fun sometimes. It could be possible that I have a totally different meaning at the real one. But, when I listen the song makes me interpreted that parents occasionally could not understand their kids, despite they were young one time in life. Sometimes when I came home after school, my parents judge without knowing how hard and

For any ordinary business, a room full of equipment but no people would signify a failure. A restaurant with no customers, a doctor’s office with no patients – these are signs of a business on its way out. A December 2015 analysis found that 67% of people with gym memberships never actually use the gym. And this lack of commitment to work out is all according to plan. When a gym’s equipment gets used too frequently, it does what often-used equipment does, and eventually breaks. It’s much cheaper

In the film Inception directed by Christopher Nolan, the entire base theory of the film is a metaphor for how the altered perception (commonly referred to as a ‘lie’) is always the preference over the truth. Dreams feel real to us when we’re dreaming and part of the reason for that is our minds ability to construct a faux real-world setting for us to interact with in dreams. Often, that dream is something like a city or any populated area which has other people walking around in it. In Inception

My advertisement is a Christmas Ad run by the World Wildlife Fund for Nature. It's purpose is to evoke the viewers perception of wildlife endangerment by showing an infant served on a platter, like many endangered species are today. The target audience is people with children and on a more broadened scope, people concerned about extinction due to human activities. The tone of this ad is meant to be shocking, causing the viewer to look twice and really consider what the ad is trying to make aware

Matt King is a lawyer and him and his cousins own 25,000 acres of land Kaua. Life is good for the kings but then the tables turn. His wife races speed boats. As she was racing she got in a terrible crash that she hit her head making her unconscious and nearly drowning. It put her in a severe coma but Matt King believes she’ll make

There are some films that are notorious for making people cry. 2 Think of Schindler’s List (1993), Titanic (1997) and Sophie’s Choice (1982). Even kiddie flicks such as Toy Story 3 (2010) and Up (2009) make these tear-filled lists. 3 These films must elicit strong emotional responses from their audiences but how is music used to accompany or even amplify these sob-worthy motion pictures? This essay will survey a selection of six films known for their emotional impact and attempt to analyse what function

I can see where Foucault is going with the idea of the subject. While we formed language as a system of communication, our prejudices became ingrained in our language. We may have created our language, but societal differences change the language over time; our societal beliefs and prejudices dominate language we use. Though we might sort people according to their profession, the overarching beliefs of the society will change this definition. We use language to articulate our beliefs, so new words

For my physical action I went to an indoor cycling class. I am gazing down at a sweat-drenched towel, while my legs are turning at the rate of a Nascar's tires in a dull live with an enthusiastic lady who resembles a youthful Ellen DeGeneres instructing me to "confront your feelings of trepidation. Turn that resistance handle to one side." Did I meander into some weird faction workshop, you inquire? Well sort of, I went to SoulCycle surprisingly this week. I had dependably been occupied with going

In Power of Myth, Joseph Campbell calls the movie theater “a special temple where the hero has moved into the sphere of being mythologized” (Campbell). Watching the movie Baraka, the audience can connect to Campbell’s description of the didactic nature of movies. According to its co-director Fricke, Baraka was intended to be "a journey of rediscovery that plunges into nature, into history, into the human spirit and finally into the realm of the infinite" (Fricke). Furthermore, Baraka dives into

In every film there is always a message given, for the audience to acknowledge. As a fan of films, I can tell there are multiple films that are been successfully famous not for the high definition or the actors in the film but for the meaning that are brought to the audience. The culture expresses something different to each person as it has different meanings. Each culture has its own traditions as it is to each director with its own creativity, different techniques are been used in movies consequently
