Propp Character Role

-
1. The hero- the hero within this movie is Matt Brody as he is someone who starts off acting all cocky and then when a serious incident occurs, he is there and sorts out the issue and saves a drug scandal.

 2. The villain- in this film the villain is Victoria Leeds, she just moved to the area recently and now runs the country club, she is using the country club as a money laundry to cover up her drug business.

 3.The despatcher- in this movie, I feel that the best suited character to this definition is David Hasselhoff, as when he comes back into the modern movie to help Mitch Buchannon, he guides him to do what he thinks is right and motivates him to continue to do what right for him and assist in saving the drug scandal.

 4. The princess- once again Matt Brody suits this role as whilst he is trying to save and stop the drug scandal from happening he gets caught and the villain attempts to down him, he is saved and then goes onto saving the dilemma.

 5. The helper- there are many helpers in this movie as there is a group of people who all play a part in helping to stop the drug scandal. Summer Quinn is one of these people and she does man things to assist issues going on, on the beach which these lifeguards watch over and control.

 6. The false hero- in this movie the false hero is Captain Thorpe, as he decides to turn against the good characters. He pretended to be on their side in the start of the movie but then makes the situation a lot worse for the lifeguards as he now knows everything about then that he can.

 7. The donor- in this movie I have decided to put Mitch Buchannon as this role as he is most suited for it as he mentors all of the other lifeguards to do what is right and he teaches them the ways of lifeguarding. he does this all the way through the film.

Vance Joyce- Riptide, Is this video Post Modernism?

Is this music video postmodern? Postmodern media rejects the idea that any media product or text is of any greater value than another. All judgements of value are merely taste.  Anything can be art, anything can deserve to reach an audience, and culture ‘eats itself’ as there is no longer anything new to produce or distribute.  The distinction between media and reality has collapsed, and we now live in a ‘reality’ defined by images and representations – a state of simulacrum. Images refer to each other and represent each other as reality rather than some ‘pure’ reality that exists before the image represents it – this is the state of hyper-reality.  All ideas of ‘the truth’ are just competing claims – or discourses and what we believe to be the truth at any point is merely the ‘winning’ discourse.  Postmodernism is also said to reflect modern society's feelings of alienation , insecurity and uncertainties concerning identity, history, progress and truth, and the break-up o

Vance Joyce- Riptide, Codes and Conventions

Code and Conventions of Indie folk: Every music genre has various codes and conventions which are followed when creating music videos. With regards to camerawork there is a frequent use of long shots, which show the artist playing an instrument; establishing shots and shots of scenery (for example country side etc.) and close-ups of the artists. In terms of miss-enscene, lighting is varied - ambient lighting or fairy lights/lanterns are also used - the lighting choices usually match the mood of the song; the choice of clothing is usually fairly mainstream/normal, this varies from pop music as artists usually dress up with this genre. Editing for indie folk music videos is usually described as 'subtle', soft focuses are used often and are predominately used on the artists' face and the location and videos usually end with a fade to black. In terms of general codes and conventions, there may not be a strong link between lyrics and imagery but there is a m
