Skripsi Representasi Superhero Dalam Film Megamind Film ABSTRAK Yurica Asmoyong: Skripsi Representasi Superhero dalam film Megamind Film Megamind merupakan salah satu film animasi yang menggambarkan tentang sosok Superhero yang unik. Jika pada film Superhero lain, tokohnya digambarkan sebagai seseorang yang baik, memiliki wajah yang tampan, disukai semua orang, Megamind menceritakan tentang seorang tokoh antagonis atau penjahat ulung bernama Megamind, yang berubah menjadi Superhero. Menggunakan metode kode televisi John Fiske dengan mengadaptasi kode-kode animasi. Peneliti ingin mengetahui bagaimana representasi Superhero dalam film Megamind. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan representasi Superhero yang ditampilkan adalah Superhero dengan latar belakang dididik dan dibesarkan di penjara, tidak memiliki kekuatan alami dalam diri, sangat bergantung pada alat- alat canggih dan modern yang ia miliki, memiliki wajah yang buruk rupa, memiliki 3 kepribadian yaitu kejahatan, kebaikan dan kekonyolan yang sulit ditemukan dalam karakter Superhero lainnya. Dari hasil penelitian dan pengamatan, peneliti menemukan bahwa film Megamind tengah diupayakan untuk menggambarkan sosok Superhero yang baru. Dari perspektif pop Culture tampak Dreamworks Animation, juga menciptakan film dengan karakter serupa, seperti Shrek dan Kung fu Panda. Dengan demikian, standarisasi tokoh untuk mendobrak Hero atau Superhero dalam cerita dongeng pun teramati.

Other films characterized a Superhero as someone good, handsome, and famous, while Megamind described an antagonist who characterized a superior criminal later became a superhero. By using John Fiske television method And adaptating the animation codes, the researcher discovered the representation of a Superhero in the Megamind film. The result of the research showed that the representation of the Superhero in this film was a Superhero that grew up in a jail, had no natural power and depended on the modern devices, had a ugly face, had three characteristics namely evil, goodness, and fool are hard to find in other Superhero characters. From the results of research and observations it is found that the film to try to describe Superhero in a new figure. Another, there found the pop culture perspective behind this film. Dreamworks Animation as a creator also created similar films like Shrek and Kungfu Panda. It was due to the standardization of the viewers’ opinion and break up the general tale stories became a new and unique film.

  • Animating Failure
    ChApter six Animating Failure enDing, Fleeing, surviving Who am I? Why a fox? Why not a horse, or a beetle, or a bald eagle? I’m saying this more as, like, existentialism, you know? Who am I? And how can a fox ever be happy without, you’ll forgive the expres- sion, a chicken in its teeth? —Fantastic Mr. Fox On the topic of animation, as on so many other topics, I disagree with Slavoj Žižek (2009), who, in an article on the link between capitalism and new forms of authoritarianism, offers up the ani- mated film Kung Fu Panda (2008) as an example of the kind of ideological sleight of hand that he sees as characteristic of both representative democracy and films for children. For Žižek, the fat and ungainly panda who accidently becomes a kung fu mas- ter is a figure that evokes George W. Bush or Silvio Berlusconi: by rising to the status of world champion without either talent or training, he masquerades as the little man who tries hard and succeeds, when in fact he is still a big man who is lazy but suc- ceeds anyway because the system is tipped in his favor. By em- bedding this narrative in a fluffy, cuddly panda bear film, Žižek implies, what looks like entertainment is actually propaganda. Žižek has managed to get a lot of mileage out of his reading of this film precisely because his “big” critiques of economy and world politics seem so hilarious when personified by a text sup- posedly as inconsequential as Kung Fu Panda.

Using Intel® Xeon® processor 5600 series-based platforms, the studio is achieving more than a 60 percent performance increase over previous-generation systems. DreamWorks Animation is using that boost in performance to help deliver two stereoscopic 3D animated films in 2011: Kung Fu Panda 2* and Puss in Boots*. CHALLENGE • High-performance, stereoscopic, 3D CG animation. DreamWorks Animation artistic teams are ambitious and continually need more compute power, including performance, throughput, and capacity, to produce increasingly visually rich characters, environments, and effects in high-quality, stereoscopic 3D. SOLUTIONS • Intel Xeon processors. DreamWorks Animation optimizes its data centers and maximizes rendering throughput with render farms of the newest HP ProLiant* G7, G6, and G5 server blades powered by Intel Xeon processors.

  • Dreamworks Animation SKG, Inc
    DreamWorks Animation SKG, Inc. Website dreamworksanimation.com DreamWorks Animation SKG, Inc. (NASDAQ: DWA) is an American animation studio based in Glendale, California that creates animated feature films, television program and online virtual worlds. They have released a total of 22 feature films, including Shrek, Madagascar, Kung Fu Panda and How to Train Your Dragon series. Although the studio also made traditionally animated films about serious subjects earlier, such as The Prince of Egypt, Joseph: King of Dreams, The Road to El Dorado, Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron, and Sinbad: Legend of the Seven Seas, most of their computer-generated films and television series have now gained the studio a reputation for being focused on popular culture and satire. The studio was formed by the merger of the feature animation division of DreamWorks and Pacific Data Images (PDI). Originally formed under the banner of DreamWorks in 1997 by some of Amblin Entertainment's former animation branch Amblimation alumni, it was spun off into a separate public company in 2004. DreamWorks Animation currently maintains two campuses: the original DreamWorks feature animation studio in Glendale, California and the PDI studio in Redwood City, California. Films produced by DreamWorks Animation are currently distributed worldwide by Paramount Pictures, a subsidiary of Viacom, who acquired the DreamWorks live-action studio in February 2006, spinning it off again in 2008. History The PDI/DreamWorks Studio in Redwood City, California 1994–2004 On October 12, 1994, DreamWorks SKG was formed and founded by a trio of entertainment players, director and producer Steven Spielberg, music executive David Geffen, and former Disney executive Jeffrey Katzenberg.

(Photo: http://www.newscom.com/cgi-bin/prnh/20090514/NY17075 ) Today's announcement comes just six weeks after Nickelodeon's unprecedented March 28 debut of the hit CG-animated series The Penguins of Madagascar, which ranked as the most-watched series premiere in the network's history, drawing 6.1 total million viewers (P2+). The half-hour premiere also delivered more kids 6-11 than any other Nick animated series premiere, averaging an 11.0/2.3 million K6-11.

Scott Brisbane, DreamWorks Animation. A few example of movies in which Scott used VUE Please meet Scott Brisbane, currently Head of Matte Painting at DreamWorks Animation. His credits include "The Croods", "How to Train your Dragon 2", "Avatar", "Shrek 3 & 4", "Kung Fu Panda", "Over the Hedge", "Flushed Away", and a lot more. In addition to Dreamworks, Scott has worked at Weta Digital, Rythm & Hues and Matte World Digital. Scott also teaches VUE classes at StudioArts, and is regularly part of the 3D Environment Competition judges squad. E-on: Can you tell us a bit about yourself and what lead you to 3G in general? Scott Brisbane: My background was in arts, I was into makeup effects and that kind of thing like Rick Baker and Stan Winston. Eventually I started making my own movies in high school. That led to me going to film school at USC here in LA. I started to focus more on film making as opposed to makeup effects and this was back in the 90s so there wasn't a lot of digital film, everything was photo-chemical/optical. There wasn't a lot of Visual FX classes either so I ended up focusing on cinematography and graduated with that. I worked in the industry for a bit and fell into editing, then I realized I didn't want to do that.
