Falk By Tiffany Hu Law360 (June 4, 2021, 2:38 PM EDT) -- Jessica L. Falk of Weil Gotshal & Manges LLP has faced off against IBM over its Watson supercomputer technology and represented Marvel in comic book cases, landing her a spot among the intellectual property law practitioners under age 40 honored by Law360 as Rising Stars. HER PROUDEST MOMENT: Nuance Communications Inc. sued IBM Corp. in 2016 over allegations that the tech giant breached a licensing agreement for software relating to IBM's Watson technology by withholding certain updates and modifications. Representing Nuance, Falk said she was most proud of her win in a "huge discovery fight" with IBM, which involved persuading a magistrate judge that the Watson source code was needed from IBM to show that the code had advanced in a way that meant the upgrades and updates were in different products. "I convinced her that we needed to get the source code and the metadata for the products, and that was really important in terms of discovery to show the connection," Falk said. "It's an abstract concept to explain, and I was proud to get the court on our side for that." The trial began in February 2020 and its second week was slated for Jessica L. Falk the following month until the COVID-19 pandemic hit the nation, Falk Weil Gotshal said.

  • JOMEC Journal Journalism, Media and Cultural Studies
    JOMEC Journal Journalism, Media and Cultural Studies Pacific Crossings: Remaking Bodies and Cultures Through Film Jane Chi Hyun Park University of Sydney Email: [email protected] Twitter: @jchihyunpark Keywords Diaspora Transnationalism Crossover Orientalism Hallyu Cultural Translation Hollywood Australian Film Masculinity Abstract This paper draws on scholarship from Inter-Asia and Asian diasporic cultural studies to look at two recent attempts by East Asian performers to appeal to Western audiences on the big screen, reading their crossover attempts as embodied forms of cultural and aesthetic translation. The first considers the ‘success’ of an Australian film, Mao’s Last Dancer, based on the life of a male Chinese diasporic ballet dancer, and the second, the ‘failure’ of two Hollywood films, Blood: The Last Vampire and Ninja Assassin which star Korean actors, Jeon Ji-hyun (Gianna Jun) and Jung Ji-hoon (Rain), Focusing on the ways in which these stars were produced and consumed transnationally, the paper questions the cultural, institutional and generic terms through which western films showcasing non- western bodies and themes are deemed to fail or succeed. It argues, ultimately, that a close examination of how certain narratives, genres, stars and performances are (mis)translated across different cultures demonstrates the continued existence of cultural and national differences in a supposedly swiftly globalizing world. Contributor Note Jane Chi Hyun Park is Senior Lecturer in the Department of Gender and Cultural Studies, University of Sydney and has published widely on the social uses of media technologies, the cultural impact of minority representations, and transnational flows of popular film, music, and television, with a particular focus on East Asia and Asian America.

  • Gender Inequality in 300 Popular Films
    1 Gender Inequality in Popular Films: Examining On Screen Portrayals and Behind-the-Scenes Employment Patterns in Motion Pictures Released between 2007-2009 We examined 4,342 speaking characters for gender and attributes of hyper sexualization in 100 top-grossing films from 2009. We also compared our current findings to those obtained when evaluating at 100 popular films released in 2007 and 2008. Below are the key findings. Key Findings Prevalence 32.8 percent of the speaking characters are female and 67.2% are male. This translates into 2.05 males to every one female. The percentage of female characters in 2009 films is identical to the percentage in 2008 films. Less that 17% of films are “gender balanced” or feature girls or women in 45-54.9% of all speaking roles. These findings are just shy of our 5% criterion demarcating change from 2007 to 2009. The lack of gender parity is surprising, as females represent 50% of the population and purchase roughly 50% of domestic movie tickets sold. Gender equality does not exist behind the camera. Across 1,240 gate-keeping positions, females accounted for only 3.6% of directors, 13.5% of writers, and 21.6% of producers. This calculates into a ratio of 4.51 males to every one female. Again, no movement in these numbers occurred across the last three years. Sexualization In 2009, females are more likely than males to be shown in sexy attire (25.8% vs. 4.7%), partially naked (23.6% vs. 7.4%), and attractive (10.9% vs. 2.5%).
