This, 2015, was the year that beauty went fully social, when A-listers valued their looks according to their “likes” and one Instagram post could connect with millions of followers. Case in point: the Ali MacGraw-esque look created for Kendall Jenner (THR beauty moment No. 9) by hairstylist Jen Atkin. Jenner, 20, landed an Estee Lauder con- tract based partly on her social-media popularity (40.9 million followers on Instagram, 13.3 million on Twitter) as brands slavishly chase the Snapchat generation.

  • Analysis As Assemblage: Making Sense of Polysemous Texts
    Analysis as assemblage: Making sense of polysemous texts Accomplishing critical literacy within a mediascape where texts present as polysemous and ambiguous, may be the challenge of our times. This paper uses the example of a seemingly paradoxical newspaper column that contains paratextual elements, to illustrate how an assemblage of critical analytical approaches is needed to make fuller sense. The column is read in three ways, focusing first on the main column, its location, imagined audience, its use of rhetorical devices such as satire, irony, humour and repetition to critique the state of global football. The second reading uses a postcolonial feminist perspective to focus exclusively on the curious supplementary tailpieces (shirttails) that end the column. It reveals how specific translation strategies and the representation of certain bodies as sexually voracious, deviant and excessive, frame them as absurd exotic-erotic objects of a neo-colonial gaze. The third reading leans on Derridean ideas of writing and text to understand the seemingly discrepant relationship between column and shirttails, to raise critical questions about the role of the reader/readership itself. Each analysis brings different sensibilities to the work and illustrates the value of assesmbling multiple analytical approaches to work towards critical media literacy. The conditions and caveats of such working arrangements are also considered. Keywords: polysemy, paratext, critical literacy; postcolonial feminist analysis; Derridean analysis; assemblage/working arrangement Contemporary media texts pose a challenge when they present as ambiguous and enigmatic, offering strangely disjointed, multiple, even contradictory meanings. If we take seriously the task of critical literacy as entailing a process of reading words and worlds through ‘processes of naming and renaming the world, seeing its patterns, designs and complexities (Mey, 1986), and developing the capacity to rewrite, redesign, and reshape it in communities’ interests (New London Group, 1996)’ (Luke & Woods, 2009, p.

  • Tangled Film Production Notes
    FINAL PRODUCTION NOTES October 20, 2010 RELEASE DATE: 6 JANUARY, 2011 Rated : (PG) Consumer Advice : Mild animated violence. Running Time : 100mins PRODUCTION NOTES 1 FINAL PRODUCTION NOTES October 20, 2010 Walt Disney Pictures presents “Tangled,” one of the most hilarious, hair-raising tales ever told. When the kingdom’s most wanted—and most charming—bandit, Flynn Rider (voice of Zachary Levi), hides out in a mysterious tower, he’s taken hostage by Rapunzel (voice of Mandy Moore), a beautiful and feisty tower-bound teen with 70 feet of magical, golden hair. Flynn’s curious captor, who’s looking for her ticket out of the tower where she’s been locked away for years, strikes a deal with the handsome thief, and the unlikely duo sets off on an action-packed escapade, complete with a super-cop horse (named Maximus), an over-protective chameleon (named Pascal), and a gruff gang of pub thugs. Also featured in the talented vocal ensemble is two-time Tony® Award winner Donna Murphy as Mother Gothel. Ron Perlman lends his voice to a Stabbington Brother, one of Flynn’s double-crossed partners in crime, and Jeffrey Tambor and Brad Garrett provide the voices of two of the thugs Flynn and Rapunzel encounter along the way. “‘Tangled’ is so full of hilarious characters, but it also has tremendous action and a lot of heart,” says John Lasseter, chief creative officer for Walt Disney and Pixar Animation Studios. “We wanted to create a unique world and story that evoke the rich, dramatic feeling that is classically Disney, but is also fresh and humorous, and that gives the audience something it has never seen before in computer animation.
