The beginning of the film Jaws starts of with the first attack. This scares the viewer from the very start and excites them‚ wanting to know what happens next and who else will be victims. The first victim‚ a girl‚ is attacked at night‚ so this would mean it would have been dark. This is done for two reasons‚ one the dark is scary to everyone as no one can see what is coming for them‚ or what it out there‚ and that links into the second reason‚ so we don’t see the shark‚ leaving a sense of mystery

Competitive Forces (Porter’s 5 Forces) Analysis of the competitive environment can be done utilising Michael Porter’s 5-forces model of UPS and FedEx. Porter’s theoretical framework allows us to determine the overall profitability and sustainability within the industry (Laudon & Laudon 2006‚ pg.99; Hubbard 2004‚ pg.211). We reckon that in this case‚ the competitive forces for both UPS and FedEx are very similar because they are both in the same industry. Power of substitutes: Communications

His mastery over visual comedy: the physical nuances it exemplifies‚ coupled with the deadpan expressions that garnered him the nickname The Great Stone Face‚ are the driving forces behind his continuing appeal.

Completely absorbed in the task at hand‚ Johnnie is oblivious to Annabelle joining
