...complete. Each feature intern will produce four complete feature stories of approximately 500 words by the end of one month, plus a second, revised version of one of those stories (edited by a partner). During the Feature Writing 101 Workshop, interns will prepare four feature story ideas that they would like to pursue over the course of the evaluation. The ideas should include these four types of stories: a reportage, a profile/interview, a how-to story and a trend story. Your final paper will be a complete revision of one of these pieces. Feature 1: Reportage Go to a specific event and write a 500-word reportage based on your reporting and research. Interview and quote at least two sources for the story and include their contact information on a separate sheet. Feature 2: Profile/interview Identify someone you think is important and interesting—a professor, a businessperson, a community leader, etc…—and write a 500-word profile of that person. Your feature should include quotes based on your interview with the person plus biographical and professional background as well as an exploration and analysis of why this person is important and interesting. Feature 3: How-to story Identify an interesting process you’d like to share to the public—how to survive an earthquake, how to enjoy the rainy season, how to prevent hair-loss, etc…—and write a 500 to 800-word story about that process. Your feature should include factual basis on every step in the process. Your feature must also...

...from the media specifically from Magazines. Boles (2012) believes that each magazine uses linguistic techniques these language features are creatively used in magazines by the writers to attract and entertain the target audience as they only have a small space and time to get the attention of the potential buyer of the product. Bell (2010) emphasizes the importance of the processes which produce media language, as stories are molded and modified by various hands. He stresses it is indeed stories that journalists and editors produce, not articles. These stories have viewpoint, values and structure that can be analyzed. He is concerned, too, with the role of the audience in influencing media language styles, and in understanding, forgetting or misconceiving the news presented to it. A feature story is a special human interest story article that is not closely tied to a recent news event. It focuses on particular people, places, and events, and it goes into great detail regarding concepts and ideas of specific market interest. The study primarily aims to provide a contrastive analysis between the use of the variety of english in love songs. The study specifically aims to (1) determine the commonality and differences between American and Philippine English magazine feature articles, and (2) determine the moves present in the sample feature articles. 1.2.

...Three Features That Will Enhance Your Career Paulina Banos Grand Canyon University: UNV-504-PEO101 10/21/2014 Three Features That Will Enhance Your Career Venturing out to the real world after graduation can be exciting and scary all at the same time. One is stepping foot into a world where theory is replaced by practice, and where one is held accountable for their actions. This paper will explain how implementing three features: servant leadership, innovation and hybrid entrepreneurship, can enhance your career and future success. Servant Leadership Servant leadership is a style of management that inspires to bring out ethical and moral behavior in an organizational setting. This kind of leadership style focuses on the beneficial outcome of their employees instead of the self-interest of the leader. In addition, servant leaders try to accommodate their employees in ways where they can succeed in completing their goals, function effectively in the workplace and have a sense of well being amongst their peers and supervisors. (Rivkin, Diestel, & Schmidt, 2014, 52-55). Practicing Servant Leadership Stressors and strain found in the workplace can cause great harm to an individual. According to Rivkin et al., job strain can be caused by job ambiguity and emotional dissonance. Employees have reported that uncertainty of job functions and the lack of genuine expressed emotions from job roles can cause the feeling of “burnout” (Rivkin et al., 2014). In the health...

...difference between still photography and video may be more slight, but there is still a level of knowledge on the mechanics of film and movement necessary for making this transition. However, now more than ever, the film industry is seeing a rise in the number of filmmakers with a fine arts education. Due to the exclusive nature of the Hollywood film industry, it is clear that what these artists are producing is not the typical low-budget, unrefined student film. Oftentimes, there is a very evident influence based around Andy Warhol's career path and individual works that these artists tend to follow and become successful in doing so. Andy Warhol produced radical mixed medium photography, moved on to installation motion picture art, and then feature films. Perhaps artists like Warhol have always been best at pushing the limits – they are not afraid of breaking the rules, trying something different or shocking, and taking a risk upon exhibiting the results. Linda Yablonsky in her contribution to ARTNews credits Andy Warhol as the specific artist, and reason, that has convinced current artists to make their way into film; this movement is surprising audiences with the compositions produced. Yablonsky compares and contrasts such artists' work from before and after this transition and states that generally, “their movies are extensions of their usual work, with one difference: the films are based on screenplays that have a fairly conventional narrative bent” (Yablonsky, 1). Warhol's...

...BMW Case Analysis BMW Films Case Analysis Statement / Cause of the Problem The critical problems that seem to be facing BMW in the case are that BMW needs to continue to find ways to continue being the number one luxury import in the United States and continue to find ways to stand out amongst all the other luxury car competitors in the market with their innovative advertising campaigns. It has become increasingly harder and harder for BMW because of how many competitors have emerged in the market, thus making it diluted and making BMW struggle to find the right identity for marketing. Brands like Acura and Lexus have appeared as luxury cars but ones that are affordable and come with many more specs that BMW would charge their customers extra for. These affordable luxury cars, especially Lexus, pushed their way ahead of BMW because they were giving their consumers the message that everyone could have a great looking luxury car without having to drain your wallet or run up your debt. This message made cars like Lexus incredibly popular amongst consumers and caused Lexus to become the number one luxury import in the United States in 1992. Not only were affordable luxury cars a problem for BMW, but their brand image seemed to take a turn for the worse. BMW cars were being seen as cars for middle aged men, as a status symbol, or just as a “yuppie machine”. Without attracting more youthful consumers to their product, BMW would surely fail. BMW needed to find ways to revive...

The emergency exit seats have longer leg room. 7. many low-cost carriers develop one or more bases to maximize destination coverage and defend their market. Many do not operate traditional hubs, but rather focus cities. 8. Airlines often offer a simpler fare scheme 9. luggage is not transferred from one flight to another, even if both flights are with the same airline. This saves costs and is thought to encourage passengers to take direct flights. 10. Low cost carriers generate ancillary revenue from a variety of activities, such as à la carte features and commission-based products. Some airlines may charge a fee for a pillow or blanket or for carry-on baggage. AirAsia for example, generates revenue by courier services and hotels as well as flights. 11. employees work multiple roles 12. using fuel hedging programs to reduce its overall fuel costs 13.

...version of King Kong is by far much better than the 1933 version due to certain technology advancements. “Good things never last” said Naomi watts as “Ann” to character “Mr. Denham”, and that seems to be the fate for the once beloved “king Kong” of 1933. Technology seems to be the reason the new version transcends the classic and out shined version. Green screens of the nineteen thirties where great compared to other motion picture technology of its time. Back then you could set up a Claymation diorama or an acting set then just generate an interesting picture behind it and the crowd would go wild. But old ways have proven inadequate in comparison to new age technology. Green screens in two thousand and five could cultivate an entire feature length film with the addition of some other computer animations and sound affects. Such advancements pertain to the reason why I think the two thousand and five versions is better than any previous version. Motion pictures of the nineteen thirties where missing a vital piece of technology that helps the viewer better understand and illustrate the scene. That technology is color, and earlier motion pictures lacked the technology, leaving the viewer to use his imagination. Although “Technicolor” films had started as early as nineteen twenty two, many producers did not acknowledge the technology until later on. Color isn’t a necessity to make a movie “great” but it sure does help the viewer understand what he/she is looking at and it looks...

...Alison Chastain Feature Paper: Final Draft Paul Mielke A devastating illness left this courageous Texan teenager wondering if the sport he once starred in was lost to him forever. Until, his favorite quarterback gives back to this big time Baylor fan the joy of playing football. A few years ago, Paul Mielke was the fastest player and the star quarterback of the Katy, Texas Youth Football League. “I knew I wanted to play professional football from a young age,” Paul said. Growing up in a family full of Baylor University alumni, Paul dreamed to one day become a Baylor Bear and play quarterback for the well-known football team just like his hero, Robert Griffin III. However, life for the 13-year-old aspiring athlete wasn’t going as planned. Paul’s decreasing health was relevant when the once active teenager became weak and exhausted. In July 2011, Paul was hospitalized and diagnosed with a life threatening heart condition known as Coronary Artery Disease. “It was really hard accepting that I will never be just an average kid again like my friends and because of this disease I’m always going to be different,” Paul said. For the talented athlete, the news that he wouldn’t be able to play football this coming season was the hardest part. This was just the start of Paul’s long battle. In October 2011, doctors informed Paul that the only way of surviving his stage of heart failure was to receive a heart transplant. Around the same time, a dual-threat quarterback...
