Office Space Theme Statement
I used the movie Office Space for my project. The movie is about adults who hate their jobs. They quit the jobs and steal money from the company. I used fonts that would seem like handwriting that someone would use in work. That way it would seem realistic. The colors red and yellow are in the text to symbolize jealousy and anger. The men are jealous of the boss who gets a lot of money. They are also angry because they do not like their jobs and do not feel like working. I put gray in the background to symbolize how boering their job is. The theme statement describes that when the adults have a boring life that they repeat every day, they will become angry at this and quit. They have jealousy at the boss making all the money, so they become

The comic strip by Gin Henson is about how the narrator feels when people try to boss him around, and finally ending with a life lesson that he learns. Therefore, Mass and Henson convey their message (or theme), that you are in control of your own life, and that you are the one who creates it, through the use of repetition.…

    First, choose either T. C. Boyle's "The Love of My Life" or Joyce Carol Oates's "Where Are You Going, Where Have You Been?" Second, choose a brief passage (a few sentences, a short paragraph) that exemplifies either the main symbol or the story's point of view. As you closely read the passage, i.e., attending to the subtle language cues like we've been practicing in class, discuss what the symbol or point of view conveys about the overall meaning of the story. What idea or theme does the symbol point to? Why is the story told from this particular point of view, and what does the attitude toward the main character(s) imply about the main idea?

    Shreddi is a street artist who operates covertly (and illegally) in the Houston metro. Shreddi explains, “After two years working twelve hour days for my company, I was basically let go.” This event prompted him to seek an outlet for both his creativity, and his frustration with the white-collar company that wronged him. His medium is wheatpasting, a style that involves gluing prefabricated posters to walls, signs, and object in an urban environment. Shreddi’s art expresses the struggle of the average worker to balance their career and their personal lives. His art reflects on the challenge of the average worker to do what is necessary to survive, succeed, and thrive in the corporate environment while maintaining their individuality. Shreddi’s work evokes feelings of empowerment and inspiration by pointing out harsh, but often overlooked concepts in the business world such as greed, autonomy, authoritarianism, and the loss of the self while submitting to the corporate machine.…

    My collage represents the theme of freedom and confinement from the novel “Of Mice and Men”. The novel is set in America during the Depression and this context is shown in the way I’ve used the front page of the New York newspaper from the day of the Wall Street crash as the A3 page for my collage. I’ve deliberately washed out the newspaper to symbolize that the Depression was important in the novel but didn’t take over the story. As a female, I was annoyed the way the novel made women out negatively by using words like ‘tramp’, ‘bitch’ and ‘tart’ and the way men in the novel used them as prostitutes, so my representation shows the freedom and confinement of Curly’s wife – I’ve given her power in my representation because her and the other women had none in the novel and I’ve made the men all fairly insignificant in my representation because it wasn’t fair that they had all the power in the book.…

    The novel 'Brave New World' starts out with the world's states motto of stability, identity and community. One can infer from the start that these could be the books explicit themes, but once you read it through it becomes clear that the books primary focus is stability. Stability is caused by the happiness of a community as a whole, because if a community is happy then the people have no reason to riot or rebel. To control the happiness, (and in turn, stability) the people of the World State issue the people under their control to partake in the consumption of Soma. "Soma may make you loose a few years in time, but think of the enormous, immeasurable durations it can give you out of time." (p.154) Unfortunately for the controllers, drugs aren't the only things people can thrive on. Whether it is in God or another person, people need to put their faith in something in order to go on. Luckily there were historical figures before them who could help them with this dilemma, Henry Ford. Ford was the innovator of his time, introducing a new meaning to the word 'mass production' through a production line. His innovation in America's productivity proved to help unify America's communities by providing Model T automobiles at a price the modern family could afford. He was the primary choice for the 'new worlds' idol, and the citizens in society were taught to worship him. "I drink to the imminence of his coming." (p.82) Faith and happiness were achieved through chemicals and strong conditioning, but what more could Huxley give to the controller's to increase the strength of their hold on society? By ridding the new world of art and beauty, no one had the born desire and curiosity to look back into the past lives of the people before them. There was no interest in history, art, science...and books were locked away to conceal everything to everyone who wasn't born pre-determined to take on the role of a controller. Out with the old…

    Prejudice is the unjustified discrimination against a particular thing, whether it be music, food, a breed of canine, a particular race of humans. Prejudice customarily stems from the nescience of people, prejudging anything without having first examined it. This in turn, forms in the minds of some and ruptures into a blind and confident opinion, however monstrous it is. Though ignorance is a strong characteristic of prejudice, family morals or even fear can develop prejudice further to become something more widespread and embedded into culture. The Film 'The Power of One' (1992) filmed by David Avildsen and ' The Help' (2011)directed by Tate Taylor; both explore these themes of prejudice deeply.…

    The Worst Job I Ever Had

    Many of us have to go through different hurdles in our life and one among those is having the worst job. All of us have to work in this world and the jobs that we get may not be the best job that we like. “All things are difficult before they are easy” (Fuller, Brainy Quote). The printing job was the worst job that I ever had. I was assigned to print designs on the T-shirts. There were two huge machines that looked like a waffle maker with two hot surface sides that can hold an extra extra large size T-shirt. The T-shirts were plain and available in different colors, texture and sizes. Each design has the word New York and a picture that promotes the New York City. For example, there were pictures of the Empire State Building, the Statue of Liberty, the National Museum of History, etc. After the T-shirts’ are printed, the owner will sell them in Manhattan city for $2.00 each. I had to quit the job on the first day because it had many risks involved; I had to face many difficulties and there were only minimum rights given to the employees.…
