“Analyzing the Characteristics of Technical Writing in Healthcare Infographics”

“Exploring Discontinuity Editing and the Relevance of Internet Issues in Kiyoshi Kurosawa’s ‘Pulse’”
ASSIGNMENTS MUST BE A MINIMUM OF 320 WORDS AND SHOULDN’T BE MORE THAN 600.
This module’s film is Pulse (2001) by Kiyoshi Kurosawa (who is NOT related to Akira Kurosawa) on the library’s Swank Database.
Pay attention to two things.
Note any “discontinuity” editing–in particular any “breaking” of rules although if you spot any “jump cuts” that’s cool too.
The film deals with issues of the Internet which are still relevant. Think about how these are still relevant but also how some of elements of the film may seem dated or no longer relevant.
