Example of good interview

This is an example of a good interview because whilst the interviewer and interviewee joke between each other it has meaning to it because it allows the interviewer to continually ask the interviewee more questions.

Example of a bad interview

This is an example of a bad interview because the interviewer begins to talk about himself instead of trying to find out more information about the interviewee. This would be acceptable in a situation where the interviewer and interviewee knew each other on a personal level.

Mise-en-scene of Alien trailer


The film I have chosen to analyse is the classic 1979 Science fiction/horror film Alien. Staring Sigourney Weaver and John Hurt. The film is set on a space ship making a return journey to Earth, the crew of the ship have picked up a mysterious egg. Most hair and makeup seen in the trailer is dull and messy showing that their is mass panic at the point in time. most facial expressions of the ships crew are of fear and determination. The trailer shows at some points no light at all then bright flashing lights to emphasize that there is an emergency.
On the 18th of September 2014 the Scottish population will vote for their independence dependent on the outcome the course of Scotland will change indefinitely. Tomorrow is also a historical day for Scotland because it was the wars of independence in which William Wallace fought the English for the independence of Scotland. However he lost a battle in which he asked for the help of Robert the Bruce who avenged William's death after the battle.
Tomorrow the independence of Scotland will be questioned again, personally I think that Scotland should stay with the English because their economy may fall drastically in the next few years if they choose to become independent. However if Scotland stays with us they are to be given a lot of power from the English government meaning that they would be able to run the country themselves.
