  • The Lack of Recognition for the Film Choreographer in Hollywood
    Pace University DigitalCommons@Pace Honors College Theses Pforzheimer Honors College 6-2020 The Lack of Recognition for the Film Choreographer in Hollywood Claire Ross Follow this and additional works at: https://digitalcommons.pace.edu/honorscollege_theses Part of the Dance Commons, and the Film and Media Studies Commons The Lack of Recognition for the Film Choreographer in Hollywood Claire Ross Commercial Dance Major Art & Entertainment Management Minor Virginia Cox, MS Dyson College of Arts and Sciences Presentation Date: June 2020 Graduation Date: May 2020 1 Abstract The following research directly addresses why the film choreographer has lacked adequate recognition within the Academy Awards, popularly known as the Oscars, presented by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences. Additionally, this study aims to fill the research gap in relation to the minimal documentation that exists regarding the role and contributions of the film choreographer within the film industry. In order to move forward in assessing how the film choreographer can be recognized within the Oscars, one must address why they have not been sufficiently recognized within the history of the Academy Awards. By assessing the film choreographer’s value within the film industry through semi-structured interviews and data analysis methodologies, it was concluded their lack of recognition within the Oscars is due to the lack of dance’s presence in film, the undefined role of a film choreographer, and the general lack of awareness revolving around their contributions to film. All of which directly contribute to the film choreographer’s disproportionately perceived value within the film industry. Overall, this research intends to increase the dialogue revolving around the film choreographer as well as validate their value within the film industry.

The motto also speaks to figurative and longer-term objectives to improve the quality of life of the pantry’s clients. Because “food insecurity” is so pervasive in Milwaukee’s neighborhoods, the immediate need for the pantry – to fill emergency gaps in a family’s food supply – likely won’t be going away anytime soon. But the pantry’s director, Vincent Noth, has broader goals. They include addressing the root causes of food insecurity, looking at the types of food that frequently come through the pantry and improving the diets of the pantry’s guests.

Yet while their CD “Duets“ ranked third on the pop charts, the opera stage remains their preferred venue. And in Jules Massenet‘s Music by Jules Massenet “Manon,“ they have found a drama worthy of their combined Libretto by Henri Meilhac talents. and Philippe Gille Manon, the tragic heroine of Massenet‘s work, is torn Conducted by Daniel Barenboim between flirtatiousness and profound love, between frivolity Chorus Staatsopernchor and deep commitment.

  • Moving Grammars of the Political, Affirm Different Verbs in Its Wake
    Moving Grammars ofthe Political: Beyond Sovereign Thought and Action A DISSERTATION SUBMITTED TO THE GRADUATE DIVISION OF THE UNIVERSITY OF HAWAI'I IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN POLITICAL SCIENCE DECEMBER 2004 By Geoffrey Alexander Wallace Whitehall Dissertation Committee: Michael J. Shapiro, Chairperson Kathy Ferguson Jon Goldberg-Hiller Jon Goss Sankaran Krishna Nevzat Soguk ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank my entire committee for the generosity ofoffering their time to this project. iii ABSTRACT This dissertation challenges the failure of the contemporary political imagination. Effectively to do politics today is to say I oppose. With this failure in mind, the dissertation explores what it can mean to affirm new horizons of political possibility by being attentive to political grammars. I ask what it means to exceed the political grammar of sovereignty and, by moving grammars of the political, affirm different verbs in its wake. In the wake of sovereignty, I explore the following types of questions: 1) how can what exceeds accepted structures of intelligibility be appreciated. 2) How can difference be politicized without reducing it to the logic ofthe same? 3) How is it possible to think about a politics of time? How is language, grammatically and rhetorically, a set of limits that holds people to singular identities and calibrates political action to predetermined positions? With these questions in mind, the general question being asked is: how can different linguistic practices open up competing political grammars? To this end, the dissertation pushes Gilles Deleuze beyond his inherited political grammar. Specifically, I amplify Deleuze's philosophy, which celebrates creating concepts above all else, into a moving politics.
