Raw Deal: Film Techniques
Number of pages: 4 | Number of words: 1062.... of low-key lighting. The use of this type of lighting is used to increase the intensity of the scene and define the mood. By directing their attention to Pat’s face, the audience can concentrate on her facial expressions and sense her fear. The direction of the light also plays a key role in creating a successful visual image. An example of this is the use of front-lighting and back-lighting in the scene on the boat where Joe is talking to Pat about their new married life. The camera focuses on a side view of Pat’s face. There is a light shining from the window behind .....

Taming Of The Shrew: Shakespeare's Preamble Of Katherine And Bianca
Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1369.... sister's strategy, her reaction is as
one can imagine how another would react suffering this type of bias for so
many years. She is hurt and she seeks revenge. This is seen in Act II,
Scene I, when Katherine sums up her own state: “I will go sit and weep/
Till I can find occasion of revenge” (35-36). It is an immature response,
but the only one she knows, and it serves the dual purpose of cloaking her
hurt. The transformation, which she undergoes near the end of the play, is
not one of character, but one of attitude. At the end of the play, we find
out that her negative a .....

Oedipus Rex: Self Discovery
Number of pages: 5 | Number of words: 1328.... from; "I am the
son of Polybus of Corinth, and of a Dorian mother, Merope." (Oedipus p28)
It is only after the townspeople of THebes start to get sick,and they
discover the murder of Laius,that Oedipus begins his great search.
Oedipus vows to his subjects that he will find the contaminator of
Thebes, not knowing that he has brought on the sickness of the people; "So
shall you see me, as of right, with you, venging this country and the God
together. Why, 'tis not for my neighbour's sake, but mine, I shall dispel
this plague-spot; for the man, whoever it may be, who murde .....

Hamlet's Inability To Decipher Right From Wrong
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 743.... fouled,
Ungartered, and down-gyvèd to his ankle,
Pale as his shirt, his knees knocking each other,
And with a look so piteous and purport
As if he had been loosèd out of hell
To speak of horrors, he comes before me.”
According to Ophelia, his apparent condition was one of distress. I thought this section interesting because although Hamlet supposedly loves Ophelia, and his act of going through her closet was out of his “love-madness” for her, it truly scares Ophelia and has the opposite affect on her than what Hamlet ultimately intended. Polonius declares that Hamle .....

The Use Of Symbols In Macbeth
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 451.... crucified. However, Macbeth mentions that all of the
water in the sea would turn red from the blood on his hands; which leads me to
the conclusion that blood was a much more powerful symbol than water in this
play.
In Macbeth, light and dark was used in a classic sense. Light
symbolized all that is good, and it is no coincidence that when a scene included
Banquo or another of the innocent victims in this play, the setting was bright.
On the other hand, when a scene involved murder or the supernatural, such as the
scenes involving the witches, a dark setting was used.
The .....

Hamlet: Theories Of Hamlet's Delay In Killing Claudius
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 811.... are sick or insane.
However, Hamlet's society believes the son of a murdered noble is responsible
for avenging his father.
When the ghost of King Hamlet appears and tells his son Claudius killed him by
pouring poison in his ear, Hamlet does not act upon the word of the specter. He
takes time to think about what the apparition told him. He contemplates whether
it is a good ghost or a bad ghost. He plans things out; analyses situations.
When the actors came to town, Hamlet implores one of them, "Dost thou hear me
old friend? Can you play The Murder of Gonzago?" (88) .....

Television Soaps: The Cultural Construction Of Gender And Representation
Number of pages: 3 | Number of words: 806.... male dominated occupations such as doctors, car salesmen
and chefs. Women in soaps are usually secretaries or housewives. There does
not seem to be any attempt for a switch of roles. Females are feminine, males
masculine. There has been one exception, which was Kylie Minogue's character,
Charlene, on Neighbours. She was a mechanic and tomboy. This is one of the few
occasions where a soap has interrogated the cultural construction of gender and
representation of identity.
A music video is footage that accompanies a song. They can have a
storyline related to the so .....

Death Of A Salesman: Symbols In The Play
Number of pages: 2 | Number of words: 529.... and godson, shows the tape
recorder to Willy and appe ars to be more interested in the sound and
technology of the machine instead of Willy, who i s fighting for his job.
Howard no longer need s Willy's services and without concern fires him.
This, to Willy, was like, "eating the orange and throwing away the peel".
However, Willy is partly to blame, as he does not accept change and wants
to remain in the pas t. This is foreshadowed in the scene where Willy is
left alone with the tape recorder and is unable to shut it off. Willy
believes in using his old techniques and style .....
