The document provides an analysis of the radio drama "The Apocalypse of Bill Lizard" across several criteria. It finds the drama has a high level of generic verisimilitude to comedy. While initially addressing the listener directly, it then speaks more indirectly in a conversational style. The language is formal at first but becomes less so as the drama begins, suggesting an older target audience. The narrator has a low, monotonal voice at the start to mimic a phone call. Following Propp's model, Bill Lizard is the hero, the rabbit is the helper, and the woman is the damsel. The introduction creates a scary atmosphere that gives way to comedy once the drama proper begins.

Bill is the hero of the apocalyptic radio drama comedy, trying to rescue a damsel in distress from the rabbit man who can manipulate pencils as his helper. The beginning features frozen voice effects to set a formal tone and depict Bill on an enigmatic phone call. Following Todorov's model, the passage establishes equilibrium with introductory speech before disrupting it by introducing the female character, implying future resolution. Characters converse indirectly but the overall mode of address remains informal due to the lighthearted genre.Radio drama terms

The document analyzes the radio drama "Apocalypse of Bill Lizard" using various literary theories. It notes that the genre is comedy due to its lighthearted and odd nature. It applies Propp's theory by identifying Bill as the hero, the pooka as the helper, and an unknown villain. Inflection and pitch are used to convey emotion and distinguish characters - Bill speaks roughly while the pooka has a high-pitched squeaky voice. Ambient noises are used to make settings like a science lab seem more realistic. Dialect and cultural codes reveal Bill uses formal English while the pooka employs slang. The presentation style is informal and aimed at younger adults.Activity for Pronouns

The document provides an analysis of the opening sequence of the horror film "The Grudge". It summarizes the key elements of the sequence in the following ways:
1) The storyline of "The Grudge" involves a curse that is born when someone dies in anger or sorrow, and the curse kills those who encounter it and is passed from victim to victim.
2) The genre is supernatural horror, set in Japan where traditional elements like sleeping on blankets and sliding doors are shown.
3) Sounds like wind, creaking, and eerie music are used to set a creepy tone that hints at the horror genre. Camera angles and editing with titles also convey a sense of fear and suspense.The conjuring opening sequence textual analysis

The opening sequence of the film The Conjuring establishes the time period of 1971 through costumes and decor of the farmhouse. Low-key lighting and unsettling music build tension. Iconography like a doll and red clues leave the family feeling uneasy. As the characters describe finding the doll, flashbacks show it from different angles. Close-ups of broken objects suggest the doll poses a physical threat in addition to a psychological one. The sequence effectively sets up an atmosphere of fear and unease through its use of lighting, sound, camera work and symbolic images.Control film opening analysis

The film opening takes place in a dull, grey house in England. It establishes the main character, seen alone in black and white shots, looking upset on the floor. The sound of his English accent helps set the location. While the narrative is not clear, it leaves the audience with questions about the boy and why he is always alone walking in the urban setting. The opening represents the character as quiet, depressing, weak and vulnerable.Scary Movie 3

The trailer begins by establishing an eerie horror tone with dark imagery and music before humor is introduced through exaggerated screams and dialogue that mocks conventions of the horror genre it parodies. Major celebrities like Simon Cowell and Michael Jackson then appear to generate laughs and promote the film to a wide audience, with the trailer concluding by displaying the film's title and release date in bold typical horror font and colors against a dark background.Lauren shoot plan

It applies Propp's theory by identifying Bill as the hero, the pooka as the helper, and an unknown villain. Inflection and pitch are used to convey emotion and distinguish characters - Bill speaks roughly while the pooka has a high-pitched squeaky voice. Ambient noises are used to make settings like a science lab seem more realistic. Dialect and cultural codes reveal Bill uses formal English while the pooka employs slang.

In Acts 6:1-7 we see how the 12 apostles manage a crisis with great skill. The unity of the church was at risk as the Greek-speaking Christians complained that their widows were being neglected by the Aramaic speaking Christians in Jerusalem. In this text we will see the twelve preserve their priorities while skillfully raising up a team of spiritually qualified Holy-Spirit-filled Greek-speaking Jewish Christians to meet these needs. The unity of the church was preserved and the gospel keeps moving forward. In this text, although they are not called "deacons", these 7 men clearly become the template for this future ministry of service to the church. We also see that the spread of the gospel will include some of the hardest to reach people, the very Sadducean priests who were persecuting the apostles and denying the resurrection of Jesus!

And when they were come, they say unto him, Master, we know that thou art true, and carest for no man: for thou regardest not the person of men, but teachest the way of God in truth: Is it lawful to give tribute to Caesar, or not? Shall we give, or shall we not give? But he, knowing their hypocrisy, said unto them, Why tempt ye me? bring me a penny, that I may see it. And they brought it. And he saith unto them, Whose is this image and superscription? And they said unto him, Caesar's. And Jesus answering said unto them, Render to Caesar the things that are Caesar's, and to God the things that are God's. And they marvelled at him.

Luke and dan
- 1. The apocalypse of bill lizard By Luke and Dan
- 2. Generic Verisimilitude The apocalypse of Bill Lizard has a high level of generic verisimilitude. This means that it is very close to the genre of comedy.
- 3. Mode Of Address This radio drama is very indirect. but at the start it sounds like the person is talking to you down the telephone which would be a direct mode of address, mainly though this has a indirect mode of address This means that it doesn't speak directly at us it speaks to someone else like in a conversation between 2 people.
- 4. Cultural Codes This radio drama sounds formal at the start because the narrator speaks with a posh accent and he uses expert terminology but when it gets into the radio drama he starts using less formal language.
- 5. Language Register I would say that this radio drama is targeted at the older audience because i dont think that children would think that the vocabulary would be too old for young people.
- 6. The Voice In this radio drama at the start the pitch is quite low and quiet because it is as if he is talking down a telephone and the texture is quite rough. The person that is talking down the phone has a very mono-tonal voice.
- 7. Propps Theory In this bill lizard is the hero, the helper is the rabbit and the damsel is the woman.
- 8. Code Of Context There is a person that announces the radio drama before the show actually starts but this is nothing like what the radio drama is about. it has a scary type of atmosphere at the start but then once the person has finished at the start then the comedy starts to come in and it looses all of its scariness
