Censorship:


Censorship is Veiwed in many ways, as people have their own opinions on it;both positive and negative.Censorship is used in the media to protect certain age groups/audiences from veiwing unacceptable or inappropriate things like things that involve Violence or strong language.The reason that certain age groups are restricted from specific parts of the media is because it can be a bad influence that includes violent behavour towards other people,This can lead to anxous parents as it is their responsibility of all their child's actions.


I think that censorship is rather important as it gives the parent or veiwer an idea of what the film or game may contain and protect them from any harmful-to-the-mind scenes or images that may give inapproproate and wrong ideas into their heads.Although others may argue that it is unnecissary and use less as some people dont use it wisely or even bother with it at all.

This is another screenshot from the film Drag Me To Hell.I would say this is a Medium shot,as you can only see Half of the characters bodies.The genre of this film is Horror/thriller,As you can see it is Obvious that the old woman is attaking the other woman who is screaming and trying to escape from her grip.

 


This is a (Scary!!) Screenshot from the movie The Grudge.I Suppose it is a Long shot, because the whole body is in the picture although you cant see the legs properly.It is Very dark to create a scary atmostphere and to help build up tension on the relationship between the character and the Viewers.

This is a Screenshot From the film Alien Vs Predator.As you can see it is a close up shot,because its focusing On the two creatures faces.The backround creates a mood between the two characters, because it has not been blured out.

This Image is from Ice Age 2 The Melt Down.This is an Extreme close up shot..The backround is not Important as it is zoomed into the characters face.And you can see the character is mad and fustrated about something through the facial expressions of this character.

This Screenshot is from the film King Kong.This image is an 'Over the shoulder' shot.As you can see,the backround is not so Important, Because it concernstrates more on the foreground(the dinosour) and the Midground(King Kong and the Woman)Although the Backround does create the atmostphere.

This is a Screenshot from the the film Monsters Vs Aliens.The Image is shot from a Under arm View,Or you can call it Low Angle Shot.And as you can see,not only is the Camera focusing on the foreground and main character in action, but in the backround things are happening too.

Can Chris Brown Gain Respect
Again By Doing Garbage Duty?



The pop star has been charged with two felonies for the beating of his ex-girlfriend and R&B star, Rihanna, but can he truly make a come back after such a scandal?
A statement about the seriousness of his alleged crimes (to which he pleaded not guilty) would be a start. Any day now the disgraced R&B star is due to begin serving 180 days of community labor in his hometown of Richmond,for beating up Rihanna.
Angelina Jolie: For the L.A. premiere of the film-Inglourious basterds, Angelina rocks a badass strapless Michael Kors leather dress.
