Me and Movie Media!

Media develop very apace and fast. I have experience working with different media in my life. One of the media that in my life grow up very fast was movie. Movie is a media that entered into domesticity from 1896 until now with showing motion picture with a projector to a large audience rather than exhibiting them in Edison's Kinetoscope peep-show machines. Movie technology has progress rapid form 28 years ago until now.      I watched different movie with projector, video tape (VHS), VCD and DVD.

First media that was used to play movies was the projector. I remember watching a movie with projector was very difficult because some time film would tear in middle of movie. Sometimes we used projector in home that requisite a dark room. Nobody can not to rise because his\her shadow glace to movie. But it was very interesting because Most of classic movies were recorded for projectors.

After few years’ entered new technology for movie to market.  It was video tape with small video film. After few years, VHS system mutated and last of magnetic tape entered to market. In 1982 introduced next level of VHS of the 3/4" composite U-matic system. I have very memory of video tape because I was teenager in the video tape period of time.

Compact disc or CD was next level of movie media that enter to home market. Computer was my first experiences to watching VCD and Amusing and funny matter was second CD lock between CD Rom and computer chassis and I couldn’t watch second CD.

“The Rhetorical Triangle"

 Best way for convey massage for the audience; speaker write a text and convey his/her knowledge in to the massage.  For this way; should be used Aristotle, “The Rhetorical Triangle" Method. In this method has no beginning or ending and is relationship between knowledge, Audience and communicator with text.

On other hands; communicator must possess to massage with knowledge that every time can be changing context demand changing strategies in speech and lecture.

In this method writing and knowledge are very attendant and writing reliant to knowledge of communicator. In text notes show the knowledge of communicator.

“The Rhetorical Triangle"   can symbolize a technique of writing a text massage for a lecture or speech.

“Bazaar”

Bazaar derives from the Persian language that goes back to the Middle Persian word “baha-char”. A bazaar is a street of shops or a market place where goods and services are exchanged or sold. I will write about the Tehran Grand Bazaar, in the capital of Iran, that is a traditional market place.

Tehran Bazaar is a historic place with different old building and story. “Throughout its history, the Grand bazaar has played host to banks and financiers, mosques  and guest houses.”(1) It has many corridors that are over 10 kilometers (6.214 miles) in length and there are several entrances. In two sides of the hall it has different types of shopping. Traditionally, Tehran Bazaar is subdivided into different types of merchandise and equipment with corridors for copper, carpets and rugs, papers, spices and precious metals. Now, there are added some other parts of modern merchandise in the bazaar like electronics, computers, cosmetics and sports goods.

The history of the Tehran Bazaar while the current bazaar is most associated with the 19th century onwards its roots go back much further. The mosque in  the bazaar is a very old place in Tehran that is  used for worshiping for trades people. But in these times it is used like a museum and used for visitation. 

Tehran bazaar is a big business center in Iran. Bazaar is an important place of commerce for Tehranis, Iranians, and travelling merchants. Two kinds of shopping are active in the bazaar. One kind of sale is retail and another is whole sale that merchandise sale into dozen or more. Most story offer merchant with phone and trader send and transmit merchandise with truck.

 Thousands of people entered into Bazaar every day and millions more finance trade in Bazaar. Bazaar essentially is a business center for commerce merchandise.
