    Sublime in Blade runner

    Nature is undercut by the dominance of technology in Scott's science fiction film Bladerunner. However a few examples of the natural environment could be the rain (e.g. when Deckard is in the streets of LA), the sunset (e.g. during the initial Tyrell Corporation scene) and the night sky (opening...

    Uai.....

    If you do well i.e. top band, scaling is virtually irrelevant. Or so I've been told.

    How to get best UAI?

    In my naive opinion: Using syllabus words, exam technique and understanding the top band descriptors. Honestly, there's no real short cut to solid study and understanding content. If there is, I'd like to know.

    Getting marks back is the nerve-racking part, doing the exam is fine.

    300 - Belonging?

    Haven't seen the film however you have to remember there are literally 200+ techniques within ANY film worth discussing, you just need to be on the look out. Some of the general ones for film are: Dialogue: what the characters say but also how they say it. Mise-en-scene: all the elements...

    Handy Hints for the School Certificate

    Teachers want you to reach perfection, or get really close. Just play by the system i.e. what they want of you and you can't do wrong. Keep working. It'll be worth it. I was the same as you in year 10, always thinking I hadn't done enough but in the end I went well. :) So start with the finish...

    Frankenstein/BladeRunner

    The fact that director Scott creates a world which is devoid of natural life and excitement illustrates the immensity of the destructive effect of technology on Los Angeles 2019. {Insert specific example/technique/scene/quote here} This in turn supports that the viewers gain a tedious impression...

    lion king

    If you choose to do a text which does not appear to be sophisticated, you can analyse it from a fresh, uncommon perspective and make it sophisticated. My related texts: Lilley's television series Summer Heights High and Jules' version of the song Mad World. Mark for my essay in the half...

    Story

    Great. Simple yet there is flair to the writing and excellent use of syntax and sentence length to create pace and rhythm. My only concern is the link to Belonging (I presume). Belonging to a relationship and not wishing to belong? Do you have their permission to upload it on the internet?
