 Real life is not always tidy, and this fact certainly holds true in public communications. Audiences have multiple characteristics that can influence how a message should be delivered. As a criminal justice professional, you must consider how audience characteristics might influence how a message should be delivered. You should then consider challenges to effectively communicating a message to that audience.Reflect on your video presentation from Week 4.Explain how you would revise your approach if, as the chief of police, you were presenting to your fellow police officers instead of to the community. In your explanation, be sure not to change the content of your original message.In a 1- to 2-page paper, explain how you might revise your approach in the presentation based on the characteristics of the new audience (police officers enforcing the policy rather than communicating information to community members) and why. Be sure to indicate who your audience members previously were. Be sure not to change the content of the message.

For this topic, read the following articles about how history museums are dealing with difficult histories in the US around the enslavement of people. Summarize the debate and include your opinion. Remember to cite your sources. Some questions to consider: How are museums attempting to revise their presentations to include a more historically accurate depiction of slavery? How are audiences responding and are people visiting or opting not to because it is too ‘difficult’ to learn about? How is this complicated by the fact that museums are often driven by ticket sales? https://www.npr.org/2017/09/13/550736172/looking-beyond-the-big-house-and-into-the-lives-of-slaves https://www.theatlantic.com/notes/2016/01/is-the-whitney-plantation-really-americas-first-slavery-museum/431448/ https://savingplaces.org/stories/five-historic-sites-with-fresh-perspectives-on-interpreting-slavery-and-freedom#.XREgKi3MzUI

1. Elizabeth I Rainbow Portrait 2. The Two Fridas 3. Dido Elizabeth Belle Consider the three paintings we have looked at together.

Screen the following episode of photographer Mark Seliger’s show titled Capture on YouTube’s Reserve Channel. Write a thoughtful three or four paragraph essay discussing the importance of Saul Leiter’s work and the contributions he made to the field of photography. Discuss two specific photographs to facilitate your discussion. Be specific and avoid generalizing about your chosen photographs. Remember to explain how chosen photographs fit into the discussion. Be sure to use your own words as plagiarism is a serious offence. Each paragraph should consist of at least 5 or 6 sentences. Each paragraph should be detailed, content-rich, and say something of substance rather than simply filling up space. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RJdIJkt3Gz8&feature=youtu.be

Select **TWO** DIFFERENT events to experience and write two report papers – **ONE EXPERIENCE PER PAPER**.  So, one report on Theatre and the second report on a Concert – not two of the same.  Due dates for each report are indicated on the schedule.  In selecting an event, keep the following criteria in mind to help you make this event the most appropriate kind of experience for your learning: If possible, an event involving professionals is preferable to one presenting amateurs.  Semi-professional events would be acceptable. A live event or a recording of a live event is stronger in its impact and appeal than a version produced for video. An unaccustomed event for you will be a greater challenge and learning experience than one which you frequently enjoy. Your critical report should reflect your careful attention to all aspects of the event you choose to attend.  The report should be in paragraph form and conform to the Guidelines for Writing Assignments be at least 500 words or two pages long.   For each event, specify the name or title and the date and place where it occurred. ART EXHIBIT Briefly describe what the exhibit was about or the kinds of materials it displayed. List the titles and artists of at least four compositions which most strongly attracted your attention, either positively or negatively.  Describe each in detail. What was it that caught your eye? What did you most like or dislike about each? What ideas or feelings were communicated by the artist or artists through these compositions?  How clearly and effectively?  Explain. Were there any techniques used by the artist or artists which you found interesting, different, shocking or puzzling?  Explain. In your opinion, was this a good exhibit?  Do you think the artist or artists were highly skilled and effective or not?  Explain. Would you like to own any of the compositions yourself?  Why or why not? CONCERT Tell briefly the theme of the concert or the type/types of music performed. List the musical compositions performed.  Which compositions interested you the most?  Which interested you the least?  Explain. What instruments were used?  How well were they played?  Which instruments impressed you the most?  Explain. What ideas or feelings were communicated through the music?  How clearly and effectively was this done?  Explain. What, if any, special effects or techniques were employed in the concert?  Were the musicians generally skilled and competent?  Was this music the kind you frequently listen to?  Would you buy and album of this music or attend another similar concert?  Why or why not? THEATRE PERFORMANCE Briefly summarize the plot.  Try to focus on the central conflict or the basic things that happened. List the major characters.  Which character impressed you the most?  Describe this character.  Tell why this character impressed you.  (NOTE:  Consider the character not the actor.) What was the setting (i.e. the time and place) in which the action of the story occurred?  How do you know this?  How were the changes in time and place communicated? Describe the mood created.  Was this a pleasant or an unpleasant experience for you?  Did you like the way the play ended?  Explain. Comment on the effectiveness of the staging, props, costumes, lighting and make-up. From your own point of view, do you think the play was good?  Was it performed well?  Explain.

From your point of view, was the documentary film informative and helpful to you in understanding the subject matter better?  Were you persuaded to think or act differently because you viewed this film?  Explain.   Would you recommend the film to other people?

Before viewing the theatre production, you must gather information about the play and the theater. Background information may include the credentials of the actors and the director, the history of the theater, the general plot of the play you will be watching, and so on. Gathering this information will help you get into the context of the play. Be prepared to take some notes while viewing the play. Evaluate what you see – pay attention to costumes, actors’ expressions, decorations, and lighting. Try to remember the most striking and distinctive visual images, and focus on them in your review. Evaluate music and other sound effects. Even if you don’t have a lot of experience with music, you can determine whether you like or dislike the music in the play. You do not need to be an expert in music to understand whether the music fits the play or not. Are the songs understandable? Do they advance the plot or allow you to get to know a character better? The performance of the actors/singers is the most critical part of a play. Are they professional or amateur? Is the director renowned? Pay careful attention to whether they manage to convincingly convey mood and emotions. As well, be mindful of whether the general idea of the play is clear and understood, whether the plot is intense and engaging, and so on. Next, evaluate the plot itself. Gaps in logic, messy narration, a weak or trivial main idea, and silly scenes which do not contribute to the plot, are aspects that all make the plot unbelievable. Is the plot easy to follow, or does it bore you? Does it have any ethical value? Does it raise essential and relevant questions? Do the plot and the events in the play affect you emotionally? You should try to answer these and other similar questions in your review. Is there something you would change in this musical? What would you do if you were the director? What did you like the most, and what did you dislike? Did the director and the cast manage to fulfill the task the plot set for them? Emphasis should be placed on your subjective opinion. Step 2: After watching the performance, you need to write a 300 word or less review of Into the Woods.  For more information on how to write a theatre review, click here  (Links to an external site.)  or here  (Links to an external site.) . When you have completed your review, upload it to this assignment as a .pdf.  Key Points to Consider Keep in mind that sometimes costumes may not fit the general setting of the musical. For example, you might be reviewing a contemporary remake of Shakespeare’s tragedy. Most likely, in a play like this, you will not see any traditional costumes, but rather something unexpected or avant-garde. Do not rush into judging it, claiming that such an approach spoils the play. Instead, try to figure out whether the adaptation affects the play, its mood, and its significance positively or negatively. You like the contemporary version more than the original. This also applies to decorations and other visuals. Try to be unbiased. You are reviewing a musical theatre performance, not a movie, so you should be aware of possible specifics. Actors and singers in a musical do not necessarily need to act realistically—their voices and intonations might also be mannered, extravagant, or somewhat histrionic. Do not think the play is terrible because actors do not speak as people would in real life. Try to understand whether it contributes to the general atmosphere of the play. Whether the acting is extravagant or not, you will know when it is just bad, and when it is done on purpose to emphasize something. Taking notes in a theater might be a hard task; most likely, you will not be able to write much down, and typing in your phone would take too much time (and its light would distract other people). Most likely, you are going to have to rely on your memory. If you can, try to view the play at least twice. Pay attention only to the most significant aspects; otherwise, you will get lost in details and miss something crucial. Write your review from an outline based on your notes and research. Then write a first draft, second draft, and a final draft. Edit your final draft at least two times. Grading Criteria The review should be thoughtful and well-written. Well written reviews will have a clear outline, be specific and use examples from the performance as evidence of your thoughts and ideas, and contain minimal grammatical errors. Please proofread and edit your work. Reviews that are creative, engaging, and provide evidence in support of your ideas, reference other course materials, and use learned vocabulary will receive higher grades.
