audience feel sympathy with the use of pathos. The tone of the essay is set when Gilman uses a simile to describe the unfair way online teachers are being treated by stating, “In the department’s eyes I am like Pinocchio, not a real boy.” (Gilman 100) If we remember the story of Pinocchio, the puppet did everything a real boy did and yet, was never actually considered alive. The audience sides with Gilman because he has established his credibility as a librarian at Yale and an online teacher at…
We all know the story of Pinocchio: the wooden puppet who becomes a boy. However, what parts of Pinocchio make him “human” and which parts held him back? Similarly, we find Offred in the beginning of the book as a puppet of the state and carved into their ideal version of a woman. Offred’s story in the book The Handmaid’s Tale, by Margret Atwood, is a story of survival in a harsh world where women are subjugated to the rules and standards of the government in Gilead. With no real identity to…
wrote a descriptive literary article about the Moegistorhynchus longirostris also known as the mega-nosed fly. In this article, this particular sub-type of southern Africa fly was compared to the universally known fabled boy Pinocchio. The comparison was because both Pinocchio and this particular species of fly both have very long noses. While the nose of this fly was overly extended and may have represented a significant disadvantage to its aerodynamic abilities, it was extremely useful to…
I think Shakespeare nails the typical teenage boy image, and one reason is because from scene 1 act 1, Romeo thinks he is in love with Rosaline. When we're teenagers, we tend to think that we know what is love, however we don’t because we lack from experience. I would say Romeo is not actually in love because he fell in love with someone else instantly. In today’s society, some teenage boy stereotypes are that they fall in love easily and move on easily. From the play, he is current in love…
ideology to be now a fact,but actually seems reasonable when you think about it. As infants we are bombarded with stories of fairy tales like Pinocchio, Cinderella, and my personal favorite, Ratatouille. Each story tells a life lessons of morality that we never knew at a young age Cinderella teaches us that even when you are penniless you can do amazing things, Pinocchio advocated telling the truth, and Ratatouille shows us to never judge someone based on a physical feature. Literature ,along…
Film Music dunnnn dun. dunnnn dun. dunnnn dun. dunnnn dun. dunnn dun. dunnn dun. dunn dun. dunn dun. The heavy sound of bows dragging across full basses, pulling from them one of the lowest notes in their register. A quick up-stroke, bringing out a pitch only just slightly higher than the first. The audience is on the edge of their seats waiting for the monster, the villain, the antagonist, the inevitable. They know that the evildoer of this tale will be making an entrance soon; and how do they…

believe in themselves enough to follow their dreams. “When you wish upon a star, makes no difference who you are, anything your heart desires will come to you… when you wish upon a star, your dreams come true,” is a famous song that was sung to Pinocchio by Jiminy Cricket that gives everyone a little faith to follow their dreams until they come…
When you see different TV shows and movies, you tend to notice that they look different. Why does Gumby look different from Bambi? It narrows down to the animation. Films look different because of the style; it differs from artist to artist. Popular varieties include anime, CGI, 2D animation, stop-motion, Paint-on-Glass, and the list goes on. There are several kinds of animation, but the fundamental styles are drawn, cutout, stop motion, and computer. Drawn animation “is a sequence of drawings…
distances away from the camera lens, thus creating the illusion of depth. This allowed the Disney studio to film animation cells at different depths, creating a greater sense of depth or adding more dimension to the animated films. As we can see in “Pinocchio” during the Pleasure Island scene, we are introduced to many circus type objects and characters, all of which appear to be sitting at different depths. Because of this, Pleasure Island is a great example of how the multi-plane camera is and…
