Main points Examples
Many sound effects might not be made in the way you would expect. (1)
The sounds of a baby elephant, a tiger and other animals were mixed by a computer to make a dinosaur roar in Jurassic Park. The sound of the doors opening was made by pulling a sheet of pater out of an envelope in the Star Trek films.
Main points Examples
(2) The Quidditch scenes in the Harry Potter films were made with the actors jumping in front of a green screen.
The aid of computers is not always preferred. (3)
The director of The Lord of the Rings films used clever camera angles to make characters seem bigger or smaller than they really were.
Scenes
requiring
CGI are filmed in front of a green screen.
Main points Examples
Props contribute to a film’s success. (4)
Director James Cameron spent six months looking at and revising plans of the Titanic in order to build a full-sized model for his 1997 film. It took 500 workers 100 days to build the fine model.
Good writers explain their ideas well. One way they explain their ideas is to include examples which make the writer’s thoughts much more concrete, practical, and comprehensible to the reader. Without good examples, the reader is left with just theories that are too difficult to use and apply.
Good examples can substitute for long explanations. The more complex the concept you are writing about, the more you should consider using an example. By giving your audience an example that’s relevant to their situation, you help them relate to your writing.

The film critic uses a metaphor in his lecture to describe the fact that a lot of work is done behind the scenes in film-making. Find the metaphor in the lecture and write a metaphor of your own to explain an idea.
The sentence using metaphor:
Just as the poor passengers on the real Titanic saw the tip of the iceberg, what we see on the cinema screen is just the tip of the huge iceberg of film-making.
Explanation:
In this sentence, film-making is compared to an iceberg as they share some similarities. As we can see only a small part of a huge iceberg out of the ocean, what we see on the screen when seeing a film, is also just a small part of film-making. A huge amount of work lies unknown to the audience, just like the rest of the iceberg is hidden beneath the ocean. Using a metaphor, the film critic clearly conveys to the audience the large amount of work that has been done behind the scenes in film-making.
A metaphor compares one thing to another without using “as” or “like”. It draws the reader’s attention to the similarities between two things. This way, unfamiliar things can be explained with something people are more familiar with.
Examples of a metaphor
I’m drowning in a sea of grief.
Here grief is so overwhelming that the
person feels helpless, like they’re being
pulled underwater.
He broke my heart.
Your heart isn’t literally broken; you’re just
feeling hurt and sad.
You light up my life.
Of course, no one can provide physical light.
This expression is simply saying that
someone brings them joy.
He is the apple of my eye.
There is, of course, no apple in someone’s
eye. The apple is someone held dear.
She has such a bubbly personality.
No one’s personality can bubble up like a
glass of champagne. This metaphor is used
to signify someone who’s especially cheerful.
Hope is on the horizon.
Hope is an intangible thing that doesn't bob
along the horizon. This metaphor indicates
good things are in one's future.
In pairs, discuss the following questions.
1 Why do you think the film critic asks a series
of questions at the beginning of his lecture
To hook
readers.
To evoke
emotions.
To emphasize
on a point.
To make
a smooth transition.
2 What conclusions can you draw from the
lecture
Film-making involves a lot of hard work behind the scenes.
3 Do you support the use of CGI in films Why
or why not
No. I don’t really like to see too much CGI in films. I think having a good storyline is the most important thing for a film, and sometimes technology can get in the way.
4 What does the sentence “… there’s always a
lot more to it than first meets the eye.”
Apart from the acting, the music and the amazing sets, there is a lot more hard work behind the scenes.
5 Two directors, Peter Jackson and James
Cameron, are mentioned as examples in the
lecture. What qualities do you think a good
director should have Why do you think so
From the two directors mentioned in the lecture, I can see that to be a good director, one has to be creative. Take Peter Jackson for example, he was creative enough to come up with new ways of shooting special effects. Secondly, to be a good director, one has to be dedicated. James Cameron spent a lot of time researching the real Titanic in order to get its precise measurements and other important details before building the model that was used in his film.
