    FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: January 27, 2017 BC’s Leo Awards Makes a Historic Move in Canada’s Film & TV Industry for Accepting Gender-Fluid Performer in Both Male and Female Performance Categories Star of short film Limina gender-fluid eleven-year old Vancouver actor Ameko Eks Mass Carroll is being submitted into both Male and Female Performance categories for the Leo Awards. In a historic move, The Leo Awards, a Project of the Motion Pictures of Arts and Sciences Foundation of British Columbia, has set a precedent in the Canadian Film and Television industry by accepting a gender-fluid performer’s request to be submitted into both Male and Female performance categories. "We are proud to join our colleagues at the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences in recognizing the importance of inclusivity when honouring artistic excellence" says Walter Daroshin, Chair of the Motion Picture Arts & Sciences Foundation of British Columbia and President of the Leo Awards.” Ameko Eks Mass Carroll, an eleven year-old Vancouver performer, stars in the short film entitled Limina, directed and produced by Vancouver-based filmmakers Florian Halbedl and Joshua M. Ferguson. Ameko plays gender- fluid protagonist, Alessandra, in Limina and also identifies as gender-fluid and uses he/him/his pronouns. Ameko identifies as a boy and other days as a girl and some days as neither. The filmmakers have submitted Ameko’s performance into both Male and Female Performance categories for the Leo Awards. Ameko says, “I would love to give the Leo Awards a ginormous thanks for making people under the trans umbrella feel more welcomed in the world.

    Deconstruction of Peter Pan’s Character in Edward Kitsis’ and Adam Horowitz’s Once Upon a Time, Season Three (2013) - Alya Safira (p.10-21) 10 Deconstruction of Peter Pan’s Character in Edward Kitsis’ and Adam Horowitz’s Once Upon a Time, Season Three (2013) Alya Safira1, Eni Nur Aeni2, Mimien Aminah Sudja’ie3 Department of English Language and Literature, Jenderal Soedirman University [email protected], [email protected], [email protected] Article History: Abstract. The purpose of this research is to find out the First Received: deconstruction of Peter Pan’s character in Kitsis’ and Horowitz’s 21/05/2020 work as described in Barrie’s Peter Pan. Kitsis’ and Horowitz’s Once Upon a Time, Season Three is the first film that deconstructs the Final Revision: character of Peter Pan from Barrie’s Peter Pan. The qualitative 28/06/2020 method is used in analyzing the main data that are taken from both works, Barrie’s Peter Pan and Kitsis’ and Horowitz’s Once Upon a Available online: Time, Season Three. The data analysis starts by selecting the data 30/06/2020 from re-watching and re-reading the works. Then analyzing them using the theory of deconstruction, character and characterization and cinematography. The theory is used to find the binary opposition and analyzing the characteristics of Peter Pan in both works. The cinematography is also needed to support the analysis and strengthens the argument of the analysis from the character’s deconstruction. The result of the analysis shows that the characteristic of Peter Pan in Barrie’s Peter Pan is deconstructed from hero into villain.

  • Dressing in American Telefantasy
    Volume 5, Issue 2 September 2012 Stripping the Body in Contemporary Popular Media: the value of (un)dressing in American Telefantasy MANJREE KHAJANCHI, Independent Researcher ABSTRACT Research perspectives on identity and the relationship between dress and body have been frequently studied in recent years (Eicher and Roach-Higgins, 1992; Roach-Higgins and Eicher, 1992; Entwistle, 2003; Svendsen, 2006). This paper will make use of specific and detailed examples from the television programmes Once Upon a Time (2011- ), Falling Skies (2011- ), Fringe (2008- ) and Game of Thrones (2011- ) to discover the importance of dressing and accessorizing characters to create humanistic identities in Science Fiction and Fantastical universes. These shows are prime case studies of how the literal dressing and undressing of the body, as well as the aesthetic creation of television worlds (using dress as metaphor), influence perceptions of personhood within popular media programming. These four shows will be used to examine three themes in this paper: (1) dress and identity, (2) body and world transformations, and (3) (non-)humanness. The methodological framework of this article draws upon existing academic literature on dress and society, combined with textual analysis of the aforementioned Telefantasy shows, focussing primarily on the three themes previously mentioned. This article reveals the role transformations of the body and/or the world play in American Telefantasy, and also investigates how human and near-human characters and settings are fashioned. This will invariably raise questions about what it means to be human, what constitutes belonging to society, and the connection that dress has to both of these concepts. KEYWORDS Aesthetics, Body, Dress, Falling Skies, Fringe, Game of Thrones, Identity, Once Upon a Time, Telefantasy.

  • Checking in with Lana Parrilla: Making Magic from Brooklyn to Storybrooke by Anna Ruth Ramos
    Checking in with Lana Parrilla: Making Magic from Brooklyn to Storybrooke By Anna Ruth Ramos King’s County native Lana Parrilla talks origins and weighs in if alter ego Regina Mills would have survived Brooklyn Most famous for her role of Evil Queen in ABC’s primetime show Once Upon a Time, Lana Parrilla is Brooklyn’s talent with a global audience. Parrilla whose parents are both from the Borough of Kings with her Italian mother and Puerto Rican father, the magical star is about as Brooklyn as one can get. What part of Brooklyn did you grow up in? I grew up in Boerum Hill…Because of my Italian family that lives in Benson Hurst and my Puerto Rican family that lives in Boerum Hill…I was always going back and forth. I feel like I grew up in both parts. Did you also spend time in LA growing up? Yes, I did. I spent a lot of time [there]. I was pretty bicoastal most of my life. Did acting happen at any point for you at all here in Brooklyn or was it just in LA: Just in high school [Fort Hamilton High in Bay Ridge]. I wanted to go to La Guardia High and I did everything in my power to make that happen…First of all, [my father] didn’t want me to be an actor. He knew how hard it was. [He] was a professional baseball player (Philadelphia Phillies player Sam Parrilla) and it was hard for him. I think he wanted more of a stable job for me.
