IVA FINAL PRESENTATION

Introduction of Visual Arts!
I really love this module as our task was to evaluate about a movie that has 18th/19th century art related stuff in it. The movie that we have chose was The Last Samurai, directed by Edward Zwick and Starring Tom Cruise and Ken Watanabe. I really love that movie! Lots of action and story moral value in the movie! I love the art direction too as well as the soundtrack! Really really epic!!

Basically, the movie set in Japan during the 1870s, The Last Samurai tells the story of Capt. Nathan Algren (Tom Cruise), a respected American military officer hired by the Emperor of Japan to train the country's first army in the art of modern warfare. As the Emperor attempts to eradicate the ancient Imperial Samurai warriors in preparation for more Westernized and trade-friendly government policies, Algren finds himself unexpectedly impressed and influenced by his encounters with the Samurai, which places him at the center of a struggle between two eras and two worlds, with only his own sense of honor to guide him.

After watching the film, we have to make a ppt about it and present it during our final lesson. The research and process was really tedious. Haha! But we managed to do it! Kind of easy for me.. hehehe!! Our presentation was good! Our lecturer like it! He was very engrossed when we presented our ppt! Without my awesome teamates which i call my brothers, the presentation would be a failure....
