Hope can inspire, and deliver a message to shape the perspective of an individual being; societies, collectives and individuals look towards a brighter path of fate--a destiny that could one day become a reality.

Baz Luhrmann is widely acknowledged for his Red Curtain Trilogy which are films aimed at heightening an artificial nature and for engaging the audience.

The cinematic technique of self-reflexivity allows a film to draw attention to itself as ‘not about naturalism’ and asks the audience to suspend their disbelief and believe in the fictional construct of the film.
Makayla As a use first pattern in sequence shows that Makayla wants to make sure she does not skip a beat. Although it may be good to complete problems or tasks in a set order, it may also provide a negative outcome as well.
