In December of 2007, The director, Tim Hill introduced the movie Alvin and the Chipmunks to moviegoers. This movie became so popular and well liked that two other movies were created after it. The writers show the audiences Dave’s adventure of trying to get the chipmunks to come live with him and be their manager. While thinking of a movie about singing chipmunks, most people would not think about it following the Hero’s Journey, but Alvin and the Chipmunks demonstrates it perfectly. Alvin and…

creating a plot twist (at age seven I should mention) and made The Dark Lord, Jake’s brother. Around this time I was in second grade and my imagination was starting to get too much into my head. I had too much information from my stories in my head, and I am fairly sure that this had an effect on my school work because I was so entranced by the stories I was creating involving The Dark Lord and my new character who went by the name of Jake. So what I did to combat that issue was by making…

The movie is set in a universe where all the concerns and problems where all toys in the world can come alive and interact with…

Sometimes, the odds are in your favor. Fans of The Hunger Games may disagree, but after three people win the Powerball jackpot, I find this point hard to argue. For my essay, I decided to track the odds of winning the most recent Powerball jackpot to determine if winning is actually luck. To follow the story, I kept up with five different sources-EBSCOhost, CNN, New York Times, Dayton Daily News, and Fox News. After tracking the story, I discovered New York Times was the best source. Therefore,…

In 2010 a major box office hit was Toy Story 3. With its Pixar tile and multiple awards for animation, Toy Story 3 became an American classic. A key factor that makes Pixar films so endearing to movie patrons are its stunning and punctilious animations. Pixar tends to leave conspicuous “Easter Eggs,” or references to past and future movies, to be discovered by audiences. For example, Pizza Planet truck from the original Toy Story is referenced in every Pixar film at least once. With this, many…

Hayao Miyazaki, co-founder of Studio Ghibli, is one of the most widely acclaimed animation directors of all time. While Studio Ghibli is often nicknamed, “The Disney of Japan”, it more than stands on its own and, in my opinion, is superior in terms of storytelling and visuals. He is most known for his movie, My Neighbor Totoro, whose titular creature has become the mascot for the studio and an icon in Japanese media. While most reviews you would find for this movie are overwhelmingly positive…

It provides a purpose, a meaning, a DESIRE to live, and you will never lose your zest in life. Walt Disney, the creator of Disneyland, was a man who inspired many others with his story. He believed in the success of pursuing his artistic dreams to make his life meaningful for himself and for others. When Disney was a teenager, he avidly devoted himself to the animation…

The majority of large animation producers of the time were drafted in to produce informational films for a number of different aspects of the war effort. Animation was now being sought after as a form of motivating and explaining in an engaging manner due to its relatively simplistic nature of the time (Solomon, 1994). It seemed that animation had begun to move away from the notion that it could only be used as a form of entertainment. It was now being utilized for its ability to convey…
