Three Aspects of Sustainability

This week in Hurumanu 1 we are learning the three aspects of sustainability. The three aspects of sustainability are Social, Environmental, and Economical sustainability. Here is the definition of the three aspects of sustainability and as well as sustainable development.

The three aspects of sustainability

• Environmental Sustainability - ensuring the future generation's needs are are accessible when it comes to natural recourses that can be found in the environment. We can, by using renewable resources instead of non-renewable ones.

• Social Sustainability - Creating equality of access to resources regardless of who they are between social groups. Knowing the impacts of business and knowing how to manage it. As well as identifying the positive and negative effects on people and the economy.

• Economic Sustainability - Is all about using and taking recourses wisely that we need in a sensible amount that would be still accessible in the future with future generations. 

• Sustainable Development - the ability to meet the needs of future generations without compromising. In order to do that, we shouldn't take advantage of the available resources on this planet and only take the necessary.

English Film Language

Hi, in one of my new hurumanu subjects which is English, we are learning about films and all the other aspects that have to do with it such as visual & sound techniques and so on. For the first week of this subject, we were tasked to make our own language of film dictionary. Here's the link to our task.

English Language Film 

Body Language

It is used in the film to show communication between characters through their movements, pose, and facial expressions to give an understanding of what is happening in the film. It could be as simple as smiling which shows the character is feeling happy.

Costumes

Hairstyles

It is used to show the character’s traits and characteristics or could also represent what their roles are just like costumes. For example, a character might have some spiky dyed hair which often represents gangsters. 

Make-Up

It is also used to show or describe the character’s traits or characteristics. Make-up usually makes an actor’s visual appearance more appealing to others or to match up to their character’s attributes. Often, make-ups are often applied to women to show the typical “feminine” sides. 

Colour

It is used to set up the mood in the show. For example, a blue colour tends to set up the mood into sadness, or an emotional state.

Lighting

It’s used to set up the attention of the audience to a certain thing such as spotlights. It also sets the mood of the scene. It makes the scene better because it would have great lighting in it.

It’s used to make a scene more realistic or could show some traits of a character. For example, a character might be described as some sort of fairy. She would have some fairy wings as props. 

Settings

Settings is another word for background or surroundings. A setting might change based on the progress of the story. 

Dialogue

It’s a conversation or some sort of between two characters or more in a story. It is usually plotted in films and movies.

Sound Effects

Sound effects make a film more interesting. It creates a mood for the scene. It also creates suspense. 

Music  

Music is also used to create a mood in a scene and would probably make a better understanding for the audience. For example, the scene might be romantic, they could play romantic music in the background.

Silence

Silence is usually used to hook the audience’s attention and could also create some serious mood.

Symbols  

Symbols are usually used to create an idea of what’s happening in the story or like metaphors. For example, in a film, a man might give flowers to the woman as a symbol of his affection for her.

Special FX

Special effects are used in movies to make something artificial look realistic. With these, it makes the films believable and appealing to the audience, especially if it is some mythical creatures such as large wolves, vampires, and so on.

Bye! Have a nice day!
