Sexxy Paragraphs.



In English, we were working in groups to form Sexxy Paragraphs to explain the overall plot and structure of ‘The Power Of One’.

1. The director uses a Longshot to highlight everything going on in this scene.


2. The angle of this long shot is focusing on Sergeant Borman’s legs with Geel Piet ahead of him, suggesting there’s going to be a confrontation.


3. The Director’s purpose was to show inferiority and superiority. It shows from the angle that Sargeant is superior while Geel Piet is inferior.


4. The angle and position of the camera make it clear to the audience that there is going to be some kind of confrontation. This right away makes the viewers nervous. We knew Geel Piet was guilty of holding the tobacco, we’re automatically scared and panicked for him. We feel utter sympathy for Geel Piet although we know he’s broken the rules.

5. You can link this to the scene where Geel piet got beaten by Sargeant Borman.

Tech and Change

We've recently been looking into and doing research on technology and how it's changed the way we do things and the way we act. Our google slide pinpoint and address everything from how the tech itself has changed, to how it's changed us. For example me and my work partner show how we went from reading news papers to watching live action news on our televisions, how we went from reading books, to watching movies, washing our clothes with our bare hands to putting them in machines, and possibly the biggest change is how we went from using telephones to using cellphones that literally have the answer to almost everything behind a screen. Tech has changed almost everything around us, whether it's for better or for worse is yet to be known.

The actual definition for 'Technology' is the application of scientific knowledge for practical purposes, especially in industry.
