According to a study done by USC, “across 100 top-grossing films of 2012, only 10.8 percent of speaking characters are Black, 4.2 percent are Hispanic, 5 percent are Asian, and 3.6 percent are from other (or mixed race) ethnicities.” Moreover, the remaining 76.3% roles in these films were given to White actors. Whitewashing and misrepresentation needs to stop because, Hollywood and many other forms of media don’t bother with casting POC in movies. Hollywood gets praised for this, and the white…

Honor is to regard with great or respect or to have high esteem for someone or something. My personal definition of honor is to be a productive member in society and to help out others around you. Thomas Edison In 1877 Thomas Edison invented the first phonograph. A phonograph is a sound reproducing that uses cylinders to record sound as well as reproduce sound. In 1879 Thomas Edison built the first commercially practical incandescent light bulb. Edison also introduced the world's first viable…

Gorilla, My Love, the title story of Bambara's first short story gathering, has been all around singled out for acclaim since the volume, which has never been no longer available, was distributed in 1972. Commentators have valued Bambara's ear for the urban African American discourse of her female hero/storytellers voice that exclusive rarely had been caught so precisely. Gorilla, My Love is a gathering of fifteen short stories told in the main individual by female storytellers who demonstrate…

Bigfoot was there then they would hear two taps coming back, but this doesn't prove that it was Bigfoot because chimps are known to do this type of behavior for communication. One of the most controversial evidence of Bigfoot's existence is the Patterson film, which personally at first looks a bit true but upon further inspection, it looks fake because the figure of the body looks a lot like a man in a monkey suit, especially the fact that sole of the foot looks white just like most mascot…

actors list in Forbes Magazine, with an estimated yearly earning of 48 Million, despite a few flops at the box office. Have you heard of any doctors or surgeons making that much per year? In addition, actors get paid a royalty each time their film is shown or bought. So they continue to get paid even after they complete a project. They earn even more from public appearances, DVD sales and endorsement deals. Although Doctors and surgeons make a significant income, they don't continue to…

fundamentally. The first innovation I’m focusing on is the new use and concept of a storyboard. “Written notes, thumbnails sketches, even visual outlines had been used before, but this was the first time that a sequence of drawings was used to plot out a film in its entirety” (pg 38). This small technique made a tremendous difference when trying to piece together an animation. It not only gave clarity but it gave the Disney company an overall look at the animation so far before it was…

character is played by himself. Even with ups and downs, Mr. Favreau shows an innate talent that is now transported to the computer-generated imagery adventure of Rudyard Kipling’s “The Jungle Book”, a realistic remake of the Walt Disney’s 1967 animated film. Our little hero, Mowgli, perfectly…

Sante and christian have no choice but to run away. The duke however gets informed by one of his bodyguards about this. Beyond mad this he goes to a bar and ask where the toughest people are. They all stand up, sitting in the back of the bar, looking rough and tough, and one has an eyepatch. He then gives the leader (the guy with the eyepatch), a ton of money to capture sante and kill christian. They take the money and go after them. Sante and Christian go out on a boat, but Sante stops…

Obviously the two directors Franco Zeffirelli and Baz Luhrmann had a great respect for the language used by the creator of the original play “Romeo and Juliet” William Shakespeare because they seemed to keep it very similar in both of their films. Also they both use violence and weapons, only difference is that the fighting style and weapons were more advanced in Baz Luhrmann’s 1997 act. Both versions take place in the inner or main part of the city. Most of the time you will catch the…
