    The Road Warrior (1981, dir. George Miller) begins with Max (Mel Gibson) and his dog getting tailed in what appears to be some kind of apocalyptic future.This can be seen through what they drive, the styling of the two guys on the bike (mohawks and strange outfits...even for the eighties) and the harsh look of the climate. Max is obviously worried about being tailed and so is his dog, which is why the puppy keeps looking back while Max tries to speed up. There’s threatening music too. They then encounter some wreckage that’s smoking, which Max easily navigates through while some of his other pursuers crash. Maybe they’re inexperienced drivers, but it shows the expendability of the antagonists. They might be dead but we’re not meant to linger on…

    The protagonists goes by the name “The Dude”, and in the beginning the narrator describes him as “The laziest man in LA, which makes him a contender for the laziest man in the world.” He dresses like a slob, smokes pot, and is non confrontational and peaceful. This characterization of him gives us a good idea of who he really is, and we see he is reluctant to do any sort of work towards getting Bunny back throughout the film. All in all, we see him reluctant to do any work that doesn't involve bowling. He is unemployed, and has a hippy mentality that gives us a good idea as to who he is. His main goal throughout the movie is to return to the way he was living at the beginning of the film. This is a universal goal, we can all connect with the desire for everything to return to normal, and since the dude lived such a laid back life before he got thrown into all this excitement and danger, we see he’ll do whatever it takes to just return home, with his rug.…

    We are venturing again to Los Angeles this week where 1987 graduate, Corey Jackson, works as a film and television composer. After a movie is made, Corey meets with the director of the film to “spot” the film. This is the process of deciding where music should go in the film and what emotions the music should portray. After the spot, Corey writes the music for one scene at a time. Each composition is sent to the director for approval. Corey says that the director may like it the first time or may send it back with notes and suggestions for him to try again. “Once that is completed I, with the help of my team, will record, mix and deliver the music to the dubbing stage for final mix,” says Jackson. He also describes being on the set of a movie as not glamorous, contrary to what some may think. On a constant deadline, he says working is hard, time consuming, and challenging, but working with like minded people who all have the same ultimate goal and work ethic makes it easier.…
