Abstract When Netflix launched in April 1998, Internet video was in its infancy. Eighteen years later, Netflix has developed into the first truly global Internet TV network. Many books have been written about the five broadcast networks – NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, and the CW – and many about the major cable networks – HBO, CNN, MTV, Nickelodeon, just to name a few – and this is the fitting time to undertake a detailed analysis of how Netflix, as the preeminent Internet TV networks, has come to be. This book, then, combines historical, industrial, and textual analysis to investigate, contextualize, and historicize Netflix's development as an Internet TV network. The book is split into four chapters. The first explores the ways in which Netflix's development during its early years a DVD-by-mail company – 1998-2007, a period I am calling "Netflix as Rental Company" – lay the foundations for the company's future iterations and successes. During this period, Netflix adapted DVD distribution to the Internet, revolutionizing the way viewers receive, watch, and choose content, and built a brand reputation on consumer-centric innovation.

  • Narcos De Bad Guy? Een Onderzoek Naar Representatie Binnen De Netflix Original Serie Narcos
    Narcos de bad guy? Een onderzoek naar representatie binnen de Netflix Original serie Narcos Teddy Schoenmakers – 4266803 Eindwerkstuk CIW - CI3V13002 Studiejaar 2016 – 2017 Blok 2 Pauline van Romondt Vis Aantal woorden: 5998 22-02-2017 Abstract De Netflix Original serie Narcos kwam in 2015 uit. Narcos gaat over het beruchte leven van Pablo Escobar en de DEA-agenten die een rol speelden bij zijn ondergang. Netflix beschrijft de serie als volgt: “Deze dramaserie vertelt het waargebeurde verhaal over het geweld en de macht van de beruchte drugskartels in Colombia.” In Narcos worden verschillende etniciteiten gerepresenteerd. Dit onderzoek richt zich daarom op de representatie van de hoofdpersonages in deze serie: Steve Murphy, Javier Peña en Pablo Escobar. De personages zijn geanalyseerd middels een critical discourse analysis waarbij drie geselecteerde afleveringen werden geanalyseerd, geïnterpreteerd en vervolgens zijn deze resultaten gekoppeld aan voorgaande onderzoeken. Hieruit kwam naar voren dat Steve Murphy als de belangrijke, goede Noord- Amerikaan wordt gerepresenteerd, mede doordat hij alles volgens de regels doet. Javier Peña wordt gerepresenteerd als deels Noord-Amerikaans en deels Latino, als een klootzak en als iemand die met goede bedoelingen sommige regels overtreedt. Pablo Escobar wordt in Narcos gerepresenteerd als Latino, crimineel en als familieman. Hij overtreedt alle regels. Pablo kan helemaal gezien worden als de “Ander” en Javier deels. De manier waarop de personages gerepresenteerd worden en het Noord-Amerikaanse perspectief waar vanuit Narcos verteld wordt, zorgen ervoor dat het beeld geconstrueerd wordt van de slechte “Ander” in vergelijking tot de goede Noord-Amerikaan. Narcos houdt hiermee het beeld dat Noord- Amerikanen beter zijn dan de “Ander” en het stereotype beeld van Latino’s in stand.

He thanked his collaborators, the cast, and the crew. He then deviated from the formula and made this quip: “Thank you to all the straight white guys who dominated movies and TV so hard and for so long that stories about anyone else seem kind of fresh and original now.” Laughter and applause erupted in the Microsoft Theater. The joke succeeded with the audience because they knew it had a grain of truth – that despite the ever-changing American demographic, film and television have still been predominantly white (Smith, 2014).

    EATING BETWEEN BINARIES: FOOD AND YOUNG ADULT FICTION A Thesis submitted to the faculty of f i t San Francisco State University In partial fulfillment of VOW the requirements for the Degree Master of Arts In English: Literature by Ailyn Natividad Pambid San Francisco, California May 2018 Copyright by Ailyn Natividad Pambid 2018 CERTIFICATION OF APPROVAL I certify that I have read Eating Between Binaries: Food and Young Adult Fiction by Ailyn Natividad Pambid, and that in my opinion this work meets the criteria for approving a thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirement for the degree Master of Arts: English Literature at San Francisco State University. Gitanjali Shahani, Ph.D. Associate Professor Kathleen DeGuzman, Ph.D. Assistant Professor EATING BETWEEN BINARIES: FOOD AND YOUNG ADULT FICTION Ailyn Natividad Pambid San Francisco, California 2018 Eating Between Binaries examines the different ways first generation young adults use food to remember their cultural heritage while also navigating a new American identity. Looking at texts from Filipina-American author Melissa de la Cruz and Russian- American author/artist Vera Brogsol, I argue that media centering around first generation young adults not only uses food and methods of consumption as cultural markers, but that the use of more visual genres of literature— including novels, Netflix shows and documentaries, and food blogs—provide new outlets for community building and storytelling. This thesis juxtaposes the visual and the textual to show how visually seeing consumption can enrich or contradict the written word. By studying the intersections of food and social media, the young adult is better able to see themselves represented in popular media and respond to challenges around identity and authenticity.
