around him. These seemingly minor instances can help to further connect people to the character of Shrek. Back to the first movie, Shrek, the main character, Shrek, goes off on an adventure for selfish reasons. He stepped forward to retrieve the princess from the tower because he wanted to get rid of the “fairy-tale” creatures in his swamp. Throughout this journey the audience, just as Shrek does, grows to love the faithful and annoying companion Donkey. Not only can someone find him or herself…

For my semiotic analysis I will be comparing the websites of two childrens tv series’ websites, How To Train Your Dragon and My Little Pony. These are two of the most popular children shows for todays generation. I will be exploring the codes and design elements used, how they convey ideas and are aimed toward a certain demographic. The main elements of a website include the logo, navigation, colour, font and the graphic design or the information and the layout. These elements work together to…

After having watched The Lunchbox as well as The Piano, I've come to realize how well these movies demonstrate the correlation between love and happiness. With the help of characters like Saajan Fernandes, Ila, Ada McGrath, and George Baines, the directors are capable of showing us just how important partnership is in our lives as human beings. Even with the two movies being set in two completely different areas, the same concept continues to arise. Love and partnership is essential to…

Similar to the masculine articulation, considering the three female executives, whom I interacted, demonstrated varying degrees of femininity in their online as well as offline self which I indicate as below. Disney, the ‘Female’ Among the three participants, Disney demonstrated the closest conformity to the stereo-type feminine constructions of the society exhibiting love, tender, care, gentle dialogues, and sensitivity and the ideal woman traits (Stets & Burke, 1988). Her online self,…

White”, “Beauty and the Beast”, and as you get old you might know more stories like “Romeo and Juliet”. When you are small you dream for experiencing love like in those stories, and even if you do realize that it is impossible to magically meet a princess or price, many still desire the romantic encounter with someone. Though, is that love? Or is it that act of loving just occurring in your own fantasy world that you have created? “Man is nothing else but what he makes of himself.” Jean Paul…

Miley Cyrus and Demi Lovato Miley Cyrus and Demi Lovato became the face of the Disney empire, which propelled them to stardom. Miley Cyrus is the daughter of ‘90s country star Billy Ray Cyrus, Cyrus is an American singer, songwriter, and actress. Demi Lovato started out as a child actor on Barney & Friends, now she is also an American singer, songwriter, and actress. Disney created an image for Miley Cyrus and Demi Lovato as role models for a younger generation, as a result of growing up both…

I chose to revise “Cinderella” because the power of female beauty and the presence of female passivity as a component of beauty has found its way into modern culture and it has warped society’s perspective of females. Cinderella’s impact on growing girls is enormous because it is the biggest of the three “Big Girl Tales” and it is embedded in the heart of our culture in regards to how little girls should grow to view themselves (Thomas, Tammis). The subliminal impacts of “Cinderella” on the…

What makes a Disney Princess a Disney Princess? Who decides which princesses are the “Classic” princesses and therefore being forever crowned in THE Disney Princesses club? But I believe that there is an unjust system in picking these childhood role models, and these prejudice choices cause some princesses to be crumbled up, thrown away and never to be given a second thought on why you don’t see them on your lunchboxes, backpacks, shirts, glasses, video games, bedspreads and so much more! I WANT…

We examined three different Disney princess movies and took notes of the…
