...Elizabeth Gartner Film Viewer Opinion Paper HUM/150 Sitting down and watching movies are always a fun and relaxing part of life. There are films out there that are enjoyable and others that are not. Throughout this reading I will be sharing my personal opinions on what is enjoyable and un-enjoyable to me, and how I decide on which movie to watch. Something that is huge for me is organization in a movie. If it doesn’t keep me interested and in line while watching I loose interest. There are many un-sequenced movies out there, but just because the events in the movie are out of order doesn't been it is not organized. If a movie isn't organized properly, the watcher tunes out. When deciding on a movie to watch I am up for anything. I prefer comedy but often I catch myself watching all different types of movies. I start my selection by scanning my options to look for possibly any I have heard are good or if there are any actors or actresses I recognize. After selecting a few movies this way I then read each movies summary on the back of the case. From these steps I then have my movie to watch. Every person has their different likes and dislikes in movies. A key factor in being able to enjoy a movie for me is organization like I mentioned above. Organization is huge, especially in the first 30 minutes of a movie. The first impression from a movie has to catch the watchers attention. When I sit down to watch a movie it has my full interest through out the whole movie unless...

...Film Viewer Opinion Cheryl A. Williams HUM150-Introduction to Film Studies January 7, 2013 Brian Krieger Film Viewer Opinion This summary will address how I determine which films to watch, what makes a film enjoyable, and what makes a film unenjoyable to watch. The opinions expressed in this summary are solely those of the author and not of University of Phoenix, its staff, or facilitators. Deciding which films to watch is not challenging for this writer. Romance, erotica, action, drama, adventure, mystery, musicals, documentaries, and animated or cartoon are preferred. The aforementioned types of films or movies are preferred because they usually contain an element of humor or provide some type of comedic relief. Enjoyable Characteristics For a film to be enjoyable for this writer, the film(s) should contain a variety of elements to make one laugh, cry, or both; keeps one on the edge of his or her seat, and keeps one’s eyes glued to the screen in anticipation of what is to happen next. Enjoyable films keep one intrigued, attentive, and wanting to see more. Whether a sequel or just watching the film time and time again and never experiencing boredom, even after the 175th time watching it, one is still excited by what the film offers. Movies or documentaries that teach a lesson, one can learn from the contents of the film, or something of significance can be taken away from it are things that make a film or movie enjoyable for this writer. Technical elements that...

...Film Viewer Opinion Paper HUM/150 December 01, 2012 Film Viewer Opinion Paper In this paper I will talk about why I choose this film. With the Movie Schindler’s List your imagination has no limits while watching it. Schindler’s List might just be one of worst movies to watch because of the horrific events that happened to the Jewish people during World War Two. A businessman named Oskar Shindler goes to a new city in Nazi-occupied Poland with the dreams of making a lot of money off the Nazis by making products with Jewish slave labor. After starting the plant Oskar start to understand what the Nazis are doing to the Jewish people and then starts to help them save their lives. I would have to say I do not think there is nothing enjoyable about the movie but was a great movie. Even with the horrific and terror on the people it was meant to be done for the reason that to give it a documentary-style of cinematography and the timeless sense of the film (Wikipedia, 2012). It was the understanding of ones love of historical films which make it enjoyable to watch. This is one of the best films ever that conveyed the real horror of the Holocaust by the Nazis. “Schindler's List blends the abject horror of the Holocaust with Steven Spielberg's signature tender humanism to create the director's dramatic masterpiece” (Rotten Tomatoes 2012). The violence in Schindler’s List is unenjoyably, which makes a lasting impression on you after watching the movie. The violence in the film...

...Film Viewer Opinion Paper Introduction to Film Studies With all the movies that are made not all will make it to the top. I can see where low budget movies what make the cut like most main stream movies do. But Low budget can be better than some main stream movies as long as it has a good story line. This paper I will discuss how I decide on movies I watch. Than give my opinion on what makes a movie enjoyable/unenjoyable to me when I’m watching them? When deciding on a movie to watch or go to it is a hard one if more than one good movie is on TV or playing in the theater. Movies all the times come out and making a decision to watch one takes some reading or watching of the trailer. But I will also decide if the movie will make me laugh, bored with it, or sit at the edge of my chair if I will watch it or not. The final things that will help me decide to watch the movie or not are the actors/actresses that are playing in the movie. To give my opinion on what makes a movie enjoyable what does the movie have to offer? For me an enjoyable movie has to offer many things laughter, a good story line, and action. I enjoy movies with great actor/actresses, but they must have a role that fits them. Adam Sandler, Jim Carry these are a couple of actors that I enjoy watching their movies they can make me laugh from the start of the movie. A movie with good music, if music fits the movie it makes it enjoyable since music draws people in. But even though movies can be enjoyable they...

...ArcGIS viewer for Flex vs. Silverlight vs. Using HTML 5 for ArcGIS Both ArcGIS viewer for Flex and Silverlight are both applications that make it possible for users to create their own web GIS applications and make them available for intranet and Internet use by using a web serve. The viewer for flex is produced by Adobe and has been around longer than the viewer for Silverlight which is produced by Microsoft; thus, there may be more valuable resource available for flex viewer than for Silverlight viewer (widgets for flex viewer, add-ins for Silverlight). Flex web applications can be developed by using any IDE that supports adobe flex (i.e., Eclipse and Adobe Flash Builder). Silverlight applications can be developed with any .NET programming language (C#, etc.); or software can be used in the form of Microsoft Visual Studio. Developing a Flex viewer widget, however, appears to be much easier than developing an add-in for Silverlight viewer. To develop a Flex widget, you use ArcGIS API for Flex (using the same framework for extending the viewer and developing your own applications from scratch). With the Silverlight viewer, you need to use a separate application, ArcGIS Extensibility SDK for Silverlight, which looks a bit more complex to me compared to ArcGIS API for Silverlight because it follows the Model View ViewModel (MVVM) pattern. With the Silverlight viewer, appears to let end users modify symbology of layers in the created web applications without modifying the original...

...the use of multi-sensory devices in the arts create a better experience for the viewer? Sarah Rachel Kemp Manchester Metropolitan University, Fine Art - Printmaking “Synaesthetes may be more likely to participate in creative activities (Rich, Bradshaw & Mattingley 2005), and some studies have suggested a correlation between synaesthesia and creativity (Domino 1989; Dailey, Martindale & Borkum 1997).”[i] After reading an extract on sense experience from the text Phenomenology of Perception by Maurice Merleau Ponty, I decided to find out more about the condition of synaesthesia. I discovered the quote above and became intrigued by the idea that creativity could be linked to a specific genetically predisposed condition in the brain, as I had always believed that while some people are just naturally gifted when it comes to creativity, that to think in a creative way could be learned and developed through practice. If the experience of perceiving more than one sense at the same time is simply a natural part of the way we experience the world, then maybe multi-sensory art can be better appreciated by more people than an art piece that involves the use of only one of our senses to experience it? I decided to research further into the condition of synaesthesia in order to help me determine if the use of multi-sensory techniques and devices in the arts creates a better experience for the viewer. What is Synaesthesia? Synaesthesia is probably best described...

...Which has a greater emotional effect on the reader/viewer? A visual text or a print text? What we see and what we read from magazines, newspaper and articles all have a great emotional effect on how we feel. I think choosing between which has a greater emotional effect on the reader is to look at the reader themselves, if they are a more visual person then it is more likely that they'll have more emotion towards visual texts. Compared to a person who likes reading more, they might be more enhanced by the effect of descriptive words from a print text. In my opinion, visual texts have a more greater emotional effect on me. This is partly because I dislike reading. However, visual texts also includes some form of text in the image itself. In visual texts, you can see the image right before your eyes, and further analysis the picture by it's composition, color and other visual techniques. In print text, the difference is that it gives more information and it is more detailed. If I try imagining the picture in my head, it might not exactly be what the author is actually portraying. If a print text is trying to textually describe a picture the emotional reaction would not be as strong and it would take more time to digest the information. Unlike visual texts, the visual image itself is already there. It's like looking at a picture of something that has sentimental value to you, just looking at the picture brings up cherished memories and emotion. E.g. the triangle fire...

...It very often that a person turns on a television to watch programmes without really analysing the characters they see in the shows. As viewers, we mostly ingest what we see as pure entertainment. So is not always obvious to us about how certain groups of people are being portrayed in the media, what sort of messages are being implied, or the ramifications that arise from the various representations we see. To conclude how important media representation is to viewers, we have to first understand what media representation is, what is being represented, and how it impacts society and how we perceive what or whom that is represented. In this essay I will focus primarily on the media representation in television and its examples. According to Long and Wall (2009), a definition of media representation is “to describe, or depict something; to call it up in the mind by description, portrayal or imagination. To represent also means to symbolise, to stand for, to be a specimen of or to substitute for” (p.79). In my opinion, television is one of the more impactful media form in representation. Television shows are capable of describing and depicting sceneries and people visually, and special emphasis on sound effects and such help make the scenes more vivid. So it is probably the media format that which communicates to us most straightforwardly. And by doing so, the television easily offers a sneak peak into the lives of various people living across the world, or the beautiful landscapes...

...Realism is a set of conventions that we as viewers understand, in a given historical moment, to be a representation that corresponds to reality. Through the close analysis of soap opera – and with reference to at least three academic sources, outline the conventions of realism and explain how they are used effectively in British soaps. Realism has been universally recorded as the quality of representing a person or situation in an accurate way. Ever since the conversion from radio to television, British soap operas have used realism effectively to attract and sustain audiences. Coronation Street (1960- ), the British soap opera set in a fictional town in Manchester and Eastenders (1985- ), the British soap opera set in a fictional London Borough are currently the two main soap operas in Britain where realism is used effectively to draw audiences. The original producer of Eastenders once commented, “We don’t make life, we reflect it” (Geraghty, 1991:32). This shows that representing reality has always been the main aim in this genre. This also shows that they are not trying to create their own town, with their own conventions, but rather reflect what they see in everyday life into the soap opera. One main way in which realism is conveyed is by the sense of place and/or community. A sense of place can easily be established by the title sequence alone. For example, Eastenders’ title sequence consists of a map of London’s east end (Allen 1995: 67). This sets up the sense of...
