Week 4: (20.10.17)
What I learnt:
Today’s session consisted around the theme of ‘Unstill
Life’. Making characters look Neuteong (baby like), making characters reach the
‘Uncanny’. We find artificial things that are made “too realistic” and life-like uncomfortable. The uncanny Valley is strange, mysterious and weird.
Suggested
for our research, we should look at walk cycles, character clothing, character interactions,
speed/ weight, mise en scene and movement. Our essay should be 10%
introduction, 80% body of essay and 10% conclusion. Ignore subjective
statements.
Progress this week:
This week I researched into articles on the internet that
discuss of Frozen’s popularity ‘They're
being swept up in an obsession that, echoing my own childhood fixations, feels
both communal and deeply personal. Better still, the object of the obsession
has powerful things to say about sisterhood, storytelling, adolescence and female
autonomy.' I
also figured out what I would like my essay question to be: In the popularity of the film ‘Frozen’- (2013-US-Disney-Dir Christopher
Buck & Jenifer Lee), analyse the successful qualities and attributes of the
character ‘Elsa’ that enables the audience to empathises with her.
