Elsa’s Self-Acceptance as the Result of Her Defense Mechanism in Jennifer Lee’s Frozen.Yogyakarta: Department of English Letters, Faculty of Letters, Universitas Sanata Dharma. Film is an art that attempts to convey a message behind the story of its characters. Frozen is one of the examples that tell about the story of its character. Frozen presents a big role in portraying the society or situation that happens within the society. In Frozen, Elsa experiences a problem in hiding her powers. In this study, defense mechanisms and self-acceptance become the main concern of analyzing how Elsa solve her problems related to her own powers by achieving self-acceptance in Frozen. The researcher formulates three problems in this study. The first one is to examine the characteristics of Elsa in Frozen. The second is to identify the defense mechanisms of Elsa in Frozen. The third is to analyze Elsa’s self-acceptance through the defense mechanism in Frozen. To analyze the problem formulated above, the researcher uses theory of character and characterization from M. Boggs and W. Petrie, theory of defense mechanism by Anna Freud, and the last is the theory of self-acceptance by Carl Rogers. In conducting the study, the researcher uses library research. The primary source is the film script of Frozen written by Jennifer Lee. Secondary source consists of books, journals, thesis, and articles. The result of the study are first, Elsa’s characteristics are obedient, protective, independent, and perceptive. Second, Elsa’s defense mechanisms are denial, regression, acting out, fixation, projection, and repression. Furthermore, the defense that highlights the important part where Elsa discovers the understanding of herself and begin her journey to self-acceptance is defense mechanism of repression. The last is Elsa’s self-acceptance. She is able to accept her negative impulses and attitudes. She begins to show good sign towards the perception of new relationship. She can find a renewed view of reality. She is able to adjust with the reality that her powers are parts of her that can bring happiness in embracing everyone that she loves. Keywords: characteristics, defense mechanisms, self-acceptance. xiii PLAGIAT MERUPAKAN TINDAKAN TIDAK TERPUJI ABSTRAK KAOMANENG, LUDIA NATALIA GRACE. (2020).

  • Animated Stereotypes –
    Animated Stereotypes – An Analysis of Disney’s Contemporary Portrayals of Race and Ethnicity Alexander Lindgren, 36761 Pro gradu-avhandling i engelska språket och litteraturen Handledare: Jason Finch Fakulteten för humaniora, psykologi och teologi Åbo Akademi 2020 ÅBO AKADEMI – FACULTY OF ARTS, PSYCHOLOGY AND THEOLOGY Abstract for Master’s Thesis Subject: English Language and Literature Author: Alexander Lindgren Title: Animated Stereotypes – An Analysis of Disney’s Contemporary Portrayals of Race and Ethnicity Supervisor: Jason Finch Abstract: Walt Disney Animation Studios is currently one of the world’s largest producers of animated content aimed at children. However, while Disney often has been associated with themes such as childhood, magic, and innocence, many of the company’s animated films have simultaneously been criticized for their offensive and quite problematic take on race and ethnicity, as well their heavy reliance on cultural stereotypes. This study aims to evaluate Disney’s portrayals of racial and ethnic minorities, as well as determine whether or not the nature of the company’s portrayals have become more culturally sensitive with time. To accomplish this, seven animated feature films produced by Disney were analyzed. These analyses are of a qualitative nature, with a focus on imagology and postcolonial literary theory, and the results have simultaneously been compared to corresponding criticism and analyses by other authors and scholars. Based on the overall results of the analyses, it does seem as if Disney is becoming more progressive and culturally sensitive with time. However, while most of the recent films are free from the clearly racist elements found in the company’s earlier productions, it is quite evident that Disney still tends to rely heavily on certain cultural stereotypes.

Photo by: Deen van Meer Michael Grandage has won major awards for his theater productions, but none of his experience prepared him for his latest project. Now, he has to deal with a character with a carrot nose who's likely to melt. That's because his latest project is Disney's "Frozen." Performances of the play began on February 22. Grandage's stage version is based on the 2013 animated Disney film that made $1.3 billion around the world. Grandage and his team have been hard at work for more than a year. They hope their musical can live up to the movie. Disney Told Grandage To Be True To The Movie Grandage is new to Disney and had never directed an original musical until now. He has the difficult job of meeting the high expectations set by the "Frozen" movie. He must create new magic using whimsical characters like Olaf the Snowman and Sven the Reindeer from Elsa and Anna's kingdom of Arendelle. This article is available at 5 reading levels at https://newsela.com. No pressure! Disney challenged Grandage to be true to the original movie while still coming up with novel surprises. Which brings us back to Olaf. In the movie, he's drawn by Disney's animators as three balls of heartwarming snow. "That's your first question when you do a stage version," Grandage says.

  • A Critical Reading of Gender Roles in Frozen, Zootopia, Despicable Me and Minions
    Quest Journals Journal of Research in Humanities and Social Science Volume 6 ~ Issue 12 (2018)pp.:11-15 ISSN(Online):2321-9467 www.questjournals.org Research Paper Pixelating Gender: A Critical Reading of Gender Roles in Frozen, Zootopia, Despicable Me and Minions. Lakshmi P.Gopal 1(Assistant Professor on contract) 2(Department of English, St. Aloysius College, Edathua) ABSTRACT: Animation films are cultural products that exist in the cultural domain for a significant period in the form of prequels, sequels, series and adaptations into different languages. The tremendous impact it has on coming generation calls for a critical reading of the gendered notions presented in this novel media form. A critical reading of the gender roles presented by Disney Studios and Illumination Entertainment Studios shows howthe objective of positive representation is a distant dream. Received 02 December, 2018; Accepted 08 December, 2018 © The Author(S) 2018. Published With Open Access At www.Questjournals.Org. I. INTRODUCTION Movies are the popularliterature of our time. Film studies with respect to gender studies have already gained momentum with the publication of seminal texts such as Popcorn Venusby Marjorie Rosen, From Reverence to Rape by Molly Haskell, “Visual Pleasure and Narrative Cinema” by Laura Mulvey and through insightful studies by Mary Ann Doane. Gender Studies as it is now is a field of interdisciplinary study devoted to the studyof gender identity and gendered representation as categories of analysis. It also engages in studying the intersection of gender with other categories of analysis of identity including race, sexuality, class, disability and nationality.Though theories regarding post-feminist approaches are in vogue, the very need of a feminist reading of films with a focus on gender still has atremendous scope,as the critical research in thearea associated still hasn‟t achieved its objectives in representing awoman in a non-stereotypical, non-objectified role.

  • Into the Unknown & Let It
    Into the Unknown & Let it Go! Frozen Medley Into the Unknown The first section of the medley is focussed on ‘Into the Unknown’ from Frozen 2. The song was written by Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez, who also wrote the music for the original Frozen film. The song is performed by Idina Menzel who is the voice of Elsa, and Aurora who is singer from Norway. Into the Unknown Into the Unknown is Elsa’s main song in the whole film. Throughout the song there is a mysterious voice that Elsa doesn’t understand at this point. She later finds that it is a siren call, calling out to her. The siren call is the ’Aahhh Aahhh’ part! The siren call is in the style of a Scandinavian form of music called kulning. Kulning Challenge! Kulning is used in both Sweden and Norway and is often used to call livestock (cows, goats, etc.) down from high mountain pastures where they have been grazing during the day. It is possible that the sound also serves to scare away predators but this is not the main purpose of the call. The call is high pitched and always starts by using your head voice and then moves up and down in small steps. Sometimes it can sound quite sad or haunting but the main aim is for the call to communicate over a long distance! Your challenge is to create your own kulning call and have a go at singing it outdoors! Into the Unknown & Let it Go Into the Unknown is based on Elsa's inner conflict over deciding whether or not to leave Arendelle and track down the source of a mysterious voice she keeps hearing.
