  • The Italian Job
    Name_______________________________________Date_________Class__________ The Italian Job Introduction: Often time’s movies will show robbers stealing gold. Hollywood tends to forget the facts…that gold is very, very dense . In most movies the actors simply pick up the gold and toss it around like its nothing. However, you will see, through science, that this could not possibly be done. Directions : Answer the following questions by watching the video clips from the movie “The Italian Job .” 1. Start the movie at Chapter-3, Time (go back). Watch the get-away chase and pause the movie at Time = 14:10 and 14:34, stop the clip at Time = 15:45. a. How many gold bars are in the safe? Assume that there are only three shelves total, with an equal amount of gold bars on each self. b. What is the dimension of one gold bar in cm 3? (l* w*h) c. Look in your book, what is the density of gold? d. From parts b & c above, calculate the mass in grams of one gold bar, and then convert this into pounds. (454 g = 1 lb) e. Now using your answers from a & d above, calculate the total mass of gold in the safe, in pounds. 2. Start the movie at Chapter-5, Time = 17:30. Stop the clip at Time = 18:30 a. How much is the gold worth that they stole? b. Assume that gold cost $390/ounce. Based on your answer to part a, how many ounces of gold should they have? How many pounds does this equal? c.

  • Film 150: Screenwriting
    PROVISIONAL SYLLABUS: Subject to Change – Film 150: Screenwriting Film 150 Screenwriting (M & F 1 - 5 pm) Natasha V. Summer Session 1: June 26 - July 28 [email protected] Class Location: Rm 141, Soc Sci 2 Office Hours: M/F noon - 1 b4 class Office Location: TBA And by appt (email request) This is an introductory course in which students learn some basic principles of screenwriting, in the context of a Sketch Comedy Workshop class. Emphasis this Summer is on Sketch Comedy Writing, and how Sketch differs from other types of comedy (Stand Up, Sitcoms, Comedic Feature Films, & Improv vs. Written Skits.) Telling jokes is how we critique and understand the world, ourselves, and other people. Having a funny idea, and wanting to share it, is a deeply human impulse. Your job, as screenwriters, is to learn to write your sketches in the funniest, most effective way possible for an audience. You want to move people to laughter so they can understand something new and unique about life. The main activity of this class is writing——you’ll write at least TEN short comedy sketches, ½ - 4 pages in length each. (“Brevity is the soul of wit” – W. Shakespeare.) We will be primarily concerned with STRUCTURE, CHARACTER, and HUMOR, as key components in sketch writing. We will analyze television sketch shows and your own scripts in terms of their structure, characters, and comedic effectiveness. Becoming a better writer is a journey, and we all learn by attempting things and growing beyond our limitations. We learn by WRITING, first and foremost. I will expect you to write MORE sketches than those you decide to present in class, and I expect you to revise your writing both before and after you present in class.
