Book Scripted

Download or read book Scripted written by Maya Rock and published by Speak. This book was released on 2016-02 with total page 338 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Reality is deadly when you go off script. Bliss Island seems like an idyllic place to live - especially to the people suffering on the war-torn mainland. What's not so idyllic about Bliss is the fact that the Island is a set, and everyone's life is a performance; they're all stars of a hit reality TV show, Blissful Days. Characters on the show think they're better off on Bliss than the mainland, but they're always in danger of being cut if their ratings dip too low. And no one really knows what happens to cut characters. Nettie Starling has never had great ratings, so it seems lucky when a producer offers suggestions to help her improve. But she'll soon have to decide how far she'll go to preserve her ratings ... especially when she learns what could happen to her if she doesn't.

Book Scripted Journeys

Download or read book Scripted Journeys written by Tom Nuenen and published by Walter de Gruyter GmbH & Co KG. This book was released on 2021-09-07 with total page 246 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The ubiquity of computation in daily life has had decisive influence on the imaginative aspects of tourism. Online knowledge of the world is readily available through mapping services, social media, travel blogs, and online reviews. From booking and Googling, to posting and reminiscing: all stages of one’s trip can be guided and augmented by increasingly connective, personalized, and optimized algorithmic systems. In the face of this informational abundance, hypermediated tourism is fixated on access to authenticity. Peer to peer accommodation offers tourists a chance to "live like a local." Professional bloggers instruct not just on where, but on how to travel. Review websites aggregate the feedback of millions into "objective," data-driven authentication of destinations. And virtual technologies take users to places they could not dream of reaching physically. Based on a comparative ethnography of touristic blogs and vlogs, review websites, and video game environments, Scripted Journeys presents a critical analysis of touristic practice in digital ecologies. This hypermediated tourism engages technology as a harbinger of self-possession and waywardness, yet produces its own forms of digital dependence. The resulting "scripted journeys" internalize a tension between authenticity as autonomy and control, and the implicit compliance of making use of technological extensions.

Book Scripted Unscripted

Download or read book Scripted Unscripted written by Kristina Miranda and published by Turner Publishing Company. This book was released on 2019-05-14 with total page 171 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ellie Quinn has spent most of her sixteen years behind the scenes, helping her father manage a crew of four-legged movie stars. Although she longs to be acknowledged as an animal trainer in her own right, she often gets stuck babysitting actors’ personal pets and is known around the studio as “the dog sitter for the stars.” When teen megastar Kate Montgomery’s sidekick gets fired while filming a pilot, Ellie is forced to temporarily fill-in. The producers seem to be enamored with Ellie—and so do Kate’s two love interests on the show, “it boy” Logan Canfield and brand-new actor Cam Alvarez—causing trouble on and off the set. Now Ellie must decide between living the drama in front of the camera or behind it. If she quits and the pilot fails, she and her father will have to close their failing business and move to her grandfather's lettuce farm. But if she stays on the road to stardom, it could mean losing the boy she's fallen for—and herself—in the process. Can she save the TV show and her father's business without losing everything else?

Download or read book Scripted Bodies written by Kenneth J. Saltman and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-07-28 with total page 135 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From drugging kids into attention and reviving behaviorism to biometric measurements of teaching and learning Scripted Bodies exposes a brave new world of education in the age of repression. Scripted Bodies examines how corporeal control has expanded in education, how it impacts the mind and thinking, and the ways that new technologies are integral to the expansion of control. Scripted Bodies contends that this rise in repression must be understood in relation to the broader economic, political, and cultural forces that have produced an increasingly authoritarian society. This book details how these new forms of corporeal control shut down the possibility of public schools developing as places where thinking becomes the organizing principle needed to contribute to a more equal, just, and democratic society.

Book excerpt: Scripted Destiny is the fifth book in a young adult, fantasy/thriller series. Four girls have already told their story; four girls have been left in despair after the attacks of the immortals. Within the mortal world, their lives had been filled with torture, and separately they were left for death to consume their souls. However, there was a prophecy created in the immortal world, and the immortals will defy every law of their own world to see that prophecy fulfilled. Taken from the mortal world to that of the immortal, the four soul children are not only left to fight the demon that has destroyed their lives but to battle alongside their immortal familiars in a supernatural war. The prophecy has the potential to restore their lives, save the mortal and immortal worlds. If they fail, evil could destroy everything they have worked toward. Can they put aside their differences and memories to fight the immortals, or will the power of the gods conquer them first?

Book Scripted Geographies

Download or read book Scripted Geographies written by Gayle R. Nunley and published by Bucknell University Press. This book was released on 2007 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This study offers the first book-length exploration of travel narratives by nineteenth-century Spanish authors. Focusing on texts produced during a crucial period in the development of Spain's modern consciousness at the close of its imperial age, Scripted Geographies shows how writers' strategies of travel representation reflected and participated in this process of cultural transformation. The first two chapters, devoted to travel within Europe, explore constructions of Spain's sometimes problematic encounter with Western society and traditions. The final chapters shift to orientalist travel, allowing reflection on how Spanish renderings of the non-Western other intersect with patterns found in the better-known corpus of orientalist literature produced in then-ascendant imperial powers like Britain and France. These textual constructions of cultural difference reflect at a profound level their authors' preoccupations and hopes for Spain, as well as their strong awareness of both the powers and dangers inherent in the process of representing real world experience via language. Professor of Spanish at the University of Vermont.

Book Scripted Affects  Branded Selves

Download or read book Scripted Affects Branded Selves written by Gabriella Lukács and published by Duke University Press. This book was released on 2010-08-05 with total page 280 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Scripted Affects, Branded Selves, Gabriella Lukács analyzes the development of a new primetime serial called “trendy drama” as the Japanese television industry’s ingenious response to market fragmentation. Much like the HBO hit Sex and the City, trendy dramas feature well-heeled young sophisticates enjoying consumer-oriented lifestyles while managing their unruly love lives. Integrating a political-economic analysis of television production with reception research, Lukács suggests that the trendy drama marked a shift in the Japanese television industry from offering story-driven entertainment to producing lifestyle-oriented programming. She interprets the new televisual preoccupation with consumer trends not as a sign of the medium’s downfall, but as a savvy strategy to appeal to viewers who increasingly demand entertainment that feels more personal than mass-produced fare. After all, what the producers of trendy dramas realized in the late 1980s was that taste and lifestyle were sources of identification that could be manipulated to satisfy mass and niche demands more easily than could conventional marketing criteria such as generation or gender. Lukács argues that by capitalizing on the semantic fluidity of the notion of lifestyle, commercial television networks were capable of uniting viewers into new affective alliances that, in turn, helped them bury anxieties over changing class relations in the wake of the prolonged economic recession.

Book The Amazing 7 Day  Super Simple  Scripted Guide to Teaching or Learning Decimals

Download or read book The Amazing 7 Day Super Simple Scripted Guide to Teaching or Learning Decimals written by Lisa Hernandez, M.S. Ed. and published by Nova Press. This book was released on 2015-02-21 with total page 74 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Welcome to The Amazing 7-Day, Super-Simple, Scripted Guide to Teaching or Learning Decimals. I have attempted to do just what the title says: make learning decimals super simple. I have also attempted to make it fun and even ear-catching. The reason for this is not that I am a frustrated stand-up comic, but because in my fourteen years of teaching the subject, I have come to realize that my jokes, even the bad ones, have a crazy way of sticking in my students' heads. And should I use a joke (even a bad one) repetitively, the associations become embedded in their brains, many times to their chagrin! What is so different about this book? First of all, it is scripted, so that tutors, parents and teachers alike can deliver the lessons easily and without frustration. Secondly, the scripts and lessons have been carefully crafted to be ageless -- that is, to apply to any learner, based on age or level of mathematical mastery. Finally, the lessons have been carefully culled and edited over a decade in order to include the most necessary information in a finite and reasonable timetable, something (in this educator's opinion) other books seem to lack.
