The Dark Crystal Essays

I am very happy with the outcome of my Summative assessment. It is true to my designs and has a clear Dark Crystal influence. I was happy with the effect of the texture I created on the face, as it is still clearly fur texture but is more visible and bolder due to the fact it is not on the entire face. The swirls give it some depth and are inspired by the Dark Crystal. I am happy with the eyeliner, which is heavily inspired by Cat’s the Musical makeup, as it is quite dramatic and enhances her eyes

The film Stardust fits the classic Hero’s Journey mold, while also having elements of a post-modern Hero’s Journey as well. Many archetypes from The Hero’s Journey are seen and some characters possess more than one archetype or stray away from the classical versions of their archetype adding to the idea of a post-modern Hero’s Journey. As you will see this film has the characteristics of both types of The Hero’s Journey. The first way that Stardust relates to the classic Hero’s Journey is when the

they made of? How did they get here? All of them had researched the structure of the crystals and had developed their own theories. Carbon-based, like many crystalline compounds, and similar in hardness to the diamond. It can be cut evenly to fit pendants and sequins. But the discovery that baffled scientists was that the structure of molecules was attracted to each other so well that when a chipped piece of crystal was reintroduced to the rest of the structure, the piece fused itself back to the main

fairytales always had the strangest realities, as the writer’s dreamscape is painted onto the big screen, which fascinated me. These mysterious worlds were created directly from pure imagination and creativity. Jim Henson’s nostalgic 1982 film the “Dark Crystal” contained a world full of magical, surreal vibes which, came to life by the use of animatronics, breaking the standards of film while simultaneously creating new ones. Watching this film as a child none of the themes related more to me than the

Snowflakes are small and their structure is simple at very low temperatures. At higher temperatures the distinct flakes may be formed from a very large amount of ice crystals - creating a complex star shape and can have a diameter of several inches. (Met Office, 2014) Snowflakes are accretions of several snow crystals. Most snowflakes are less than 1.3 centimetres (0.5 inches) through. Under some conditions, usually needing near-freezing temperatures unstable atmospheric conditions, and light winds

Selecting the item he needed, Sylvester placed them on the counter in the order of their use. Knowing that he would need some hot water, he hung the largest pot he had in the fireplace. After filling the pot with water, he then added some wood to the fire before returning to the table. After mixing the special red dye in a medium glass container, he set it on the table. It is now time to combine the magical ingredients in a beaker. Combining the ingredients they are to be gently shaken not sutured

and important. Although the use of sugar will not be the same for every solution, this would just be something for other tests to be based off of. Another importance of this experiment is to show the effects and properties of supersaturation using crystal growth. Background: To be soluble it means an object or substance can be dissolved, this is especially true of sugar when making rock candy. A solution is a liquid mixture comprised of a solute and a solvent. In this case the sugar is the solute

Introduction: Benzopinacol can be prepared from benzophenone in presence of sun light (photochemically) using isopropanol as the reducing agent in presence of acetic acid. Acetic acid is added to prevent the cleavage of benzopinacol to benzophenone and benzhydrol by the alkali derived from the glass container used for the reaction. Benzopinacol obtained in the first experiment is converted to benzopinacolone by heating under reflux (5 minutes) with glacial acetic acid containing trace amount of iodine

Paragraph 1 Compare and contrast the crystal structures and crystal chemistry of quartz, α-FePO4 and β- FePO4. Crystal structure is defined as the orderly arrangement of atoms, ions or molecules in both liquid and solid states. Quartz has a trigonal crystal system and a six-sided prism with six-sided pyramids at each end. Quartz possesses a macromolecular structure and does not contain isolated ions. The crystal structure of quartz consists of the SiO4 silicon oxygen tetrahedra, where each oxygen

The strategy recommended would match both external and internal fit that help Ice-Fili to increase its current market share (5%), maximise its long term profits and to achieve a sustainable competitive advantage. To dominate the Russian ice cream market and maintain its market leader position, it has to brand itself as the top historical Russian ice cream producer and strengthen its core product in the impulse segment. Due to little product differentiation, there is low brand loyalty for consumers

HYPOTHESIS My Hypothesis is that the salt crystals will grow smaller than the sugar crystals. I believe this because salt is less energized than sugar. So that causes the salt crystals to be less denser than the sugar crystals. The sugar crystals would be larger. PROCEDURE AND MATERIALS Salt crystals Materials ; A cup or a small bowl, ½ a c up Epsom salt, ½ cup hot water ,[optional] food coloring procedure;[1] Add all the ingredients in your bowl or cup [2] stir the

To begin, gemstones are a precious stone that can be cut and used as a piece of jewelry. These stones differ in color, size, and shape. Even though a numerous amount of people know what gemstones are, why they have certain color remains a mystery to many. This paper will be informing the reason to why gemstones have differing colors, and how they are led to recieve these colors. First of all, even though gemstones are known for their color, some gemstones are colorless in their pure form (NA

where he was good at his job and could make his father happy, but instead he persevered in order to do what he set out to do; see other parts of the world. Towards the middle of Santiago’s journey towards his personal legend, he stumbles upon a crystal shop. He suggests to the owner that there

have mixed together. We then weighed this liquid which will help us determine the percentage yield. We then filtered the liquid off which gave us the amount we obtained. We then left the liquid for a week so that the liquid had time to turn into crystals,

of the environment affect the growth of crystals in fudge? Hypothesis: If crystallized fudge is cooled under two different temperatures, then the lower temperature will grow bigger crystals than the high temperature, because solubility in cold temperatures is lower. Why fudge was chosen: Crystals form in igneous rocks, and this experiment was chosen to explore the sizes of crystals formed under different conditions. The topic was decided upon because crystals are formed under extreme conditions, and

Everything in the world is made of tiny particles that have different amounts of stickiness, are differently sized and spaced, and have different speeds of motion. Particles are sticky, but have different amounts of stickiness. In the lab, Swab the Deck, I saw the alcohol slowly disappear, because the alcohol particles were sticky to the air particles. In the lab, Drops on a Candle, I watched the oil spread out and leave residue while the water stayed in a dome and left no residue, because oil is

more specifically a letter of advice from a mother to her son. She starts by making it known that her life has not been and will probably never be considered easy. She introduces this idea by comparing life to a staircase, “Life for me ain’t been no crystal stair”

haunting demons, but sometimes the only way out of the mess is to fight them. Some people have worked their way up, starting from the hard, cold trail of dirt and debris and ending up conquering the world. However, in many cases, life may never be a “crystal stair” according to Langston Hughes, a famous poet, and activist during the Harlem Renaissance, whose poem “Mother to Son” became

ring. “Yes, all seven are here,” Bahauddin reassured himself. “They have to be here. Balabad depends on it. My own life depends on it! If I fail the new king will surely have it in for me!” Unfortunately for Bahauddin, it was hard to count in the dark. When he reached the top of the shaft he looked around him, trying to figure out where he is. In the distance he saw Baladad, and in front of it a war zone. Bahauddin knew Balabad was facing danger, but not a complete onslaught from an enemy tribe

How obsessive love is shown in the six poems studied ? In this essay I will compare the poems that I have been studying. I will focus on obsessive love in each poem showing whether is it a negative or a positive love through contrasting and comparing the poems and showing the similarities through language techniques and the structural choices of the poems. The first two poems I am going to compare are Nettles and The Song Of The Old Mother. Obsessive love is really clear in these two poems.
