  • Summer 2017 • Volume 26 • Number 2
    sUMMER 2017 • Volume 26 • Number 2 Welcome Home “Son, we’re moving to Oregon.” Hearing these words as a high school freshman in sunny Southern California felt – to a sensitive teenager – like cruel and unusual punishment. Save for an 8-bit Oregon Trail video game that always ended with my player dying of dysentery, I knew nothing of this “Oregon.” As proponents extolled the virtues of Oregon’s picturesque Cascade Mountains, I couldn’t help but mourn the mountains I was leaving behind: Space, Big Thunder and the Matterhorn (to say nothing of Splash, which would open just months after our move). I was determined to be miserable. But soon, like a 1990s Tom Hanks character trying to avoid falling in love with Meg Ryan, I succumbed to the allure of the Pacific Northwest. I learned to ride a lawnmower (not without incident), adopted a pygmy goat and found myself enjoying things called “hikes” (like scenic drives without the car). I rafted white water, ate pink salmon and (at legal age) acquired a taste for lemon wedges in locally produced organic beer. I became an obnoxiously proud Oregonian. So it stands to reason that, as adulthood led me back to Disney by way of Central Florida, I had a special fondness for Disney’s Wilderness Lodge. Inspired by the real grandeur of the Northwest but polished in a way that’s unmistakably Disney, it’s a place that feels perhaps less like the Oregon I knew and more like the Oregon I prefer to remember (while also being much closer to Space Mountain).

Contact: [email protected] 1 Digital Surrealism: Visualizing Walt Disney Animation Studios Abstract There are a number of fruitful digital humanities approaches to cinema and media studies, but most of them only pursue traditional forms of scholarship by extracting a single variable from the audiovisual text that is already legible to scholars. Instead, cinema and media studies should pursue a mostly-ignored “digital-surrealism” that uses computer-based methods to transform film texts in radical ways not previously possible. This article describes one such method using the z-projection function of the scientific image analysis software ImageJ to sum film frames in order to create new composite images. Working with the fifty-four feature-length films from Walt Disney Animation Studios, I describe how this method allows for a unique understanding of a film corpus not otherwise available to cinema and media studies scholars. “Technique is the very being of all creation” — Roland Barthes “We dig up diamonds by the score, a thousand rubies, sometimes more, but we don't know what we dig them for” — The Seven Dwarfs There are quite a number of fruitful digital humanities approaches to cinema and media studies, which vary widely from aesthetic techniques of visualizing color and form in shots to data-driven metrics approaches analyzing editing patterns.

  • 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.

  • The Walt Disney Silly Symphony Cartoons and American Animation in the 1930S
    Exploration in Imagination: The Walt Disney Silly Symphony Cartoons and American Animation in the 1930s By Kendall Wagner In the 1930s, Americans experienced major changes in their lifestyles when the Great Depression took hold. A feeling of malaise gripped the country, as unemployment rose, and money became scarce. However, despite the economic situation, movie attendance remained strong during the decade.1 Americans attended films to escape from their everyday lives. While many notable live-action feature-length films like The Public Enemy (1931) and It Happened One Night (1934) delighted Depression-era audiences, animated cartoon shorts also grew in popularity. The most important contributor to the evolution of animated cartoons in this era was Walt Disney, who innovated and perfected ideas that drastically changed cartoon production.2 Disney expanded on the simple gag-based cartoon by implementing film technologies like synchronized sound and music, full-spectrum color, and the multiplane camera. With his contributions, cartoons sharply advanced in maturity and professionalism. The ultimate proof came with the release of 1937’s Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, the culmination of the technical and talent development that had taken place at the studio. The massive success of Snow White showed that animation could not only hold feature-length attention but tell a captivating story backed by impressive imagery that could rival any live-action film. However, it would take nearly a decade of experimentation at the Disney Studios before a project of this size and scope could be feasibly produced. While Mickey Mouse is often solely associated with 1930s-era Disney animation, many are unaware that alongside Mickey, ran another popular series of shorts, the Silly Symphony cartoons.

The three performances that I examine are: George M. Cohan’s production of Little Johnny ii Jones (1904), Eleanor Powell’s “Tribute to Bill Robinson” in Honolulu (1939), and Terry- Toons’ cartoon, “The Dancing Shoes” (1949). These performances share an obvious move away from the use of blackface makeup within a minstrel context, and a move towards the masked enjoyment in “black culture” as it contributes to the development of a uniquely American form of entertainment. In bringing these three disparate performances into dialogue I illuminate the many ways in which American entertainment has been built upon an Africanist aesthetic at the same time it has generally disparaged the black body.

  • Frame by Frame—Shot by Shot—Is to Drain It of Its Narrative Content
    Conclusion The Labor of Looking That’s how it was in the dream; I was nothing but seeing. —Walter Benjamin1 SEEING DOUBLE I begin my conclusion in medias res, with a description of the beginning of Chuck Jones’s Sniffles Bells the Cat (Warner Bros., 1941), which itself begins in medias res. The cartoon opens with a trio of mice sprinting leftward across the screen. The camera tracks laterally to keep them in the frame, but eventually the mice outpace it. Undeterred, it continues on its leftward track, traveling for more than a second past a seemingly unending stretch of wall (two horizontal bands of blue wallpaper and light brown paneling) and floor (a horizontal band of hardwood, its constitu- tive panels perpendicular to the wall). At last a fourth mouse enters the frame, and he too soon overtakes the camera, slipping out of view. The camera proceeds with its horizontal movement, and another two seconds elapse before a fifth and final figure catches up with it: the large house cat from whom the mice are fleeing. The subsequent shot places us inside the home of the mice, a floor-level hole in the wall, with a mouse’s-eye-view through its rounded doorframe at the larger room beyond (fig. 5.1). Given that much of the frame is shrouded in darkness, a surprising amount of the room is visible: the leg of a (human-size) chair peeks out just to the left of the opening, and another human-size chair and table are in the distance. In addition, the reflection in a mirror hanging above the table displays the meeting of ceiling and walls in the opposite corner of the room.

  • Once Upon an Ecological Dream
    Once Upon an Ecological Dream Anthropomorphism and the Phenomenon of ‘human interference’ with Nature/nature in the Disney films Bambi (1942), The Jungle Book (1967), The Fox and the Hound (1981), Tarzan (1999), Finding Nemo (2003) and Brother Bear (2003) Reena Leek Supervisor: Dr. C. Lord 10195904 Second reader: Dr. F.A.M. Laeven [email protected] Media Studies: Film Studies Word Count: 23549 University of Amsterdam Date: 24 June 2016 ABSTRACT The Walt Disney Company has a substantial influence on multiple generations, which could be utilized for a good cause. Therefore I will discover that animated Disney features that portray slightly anthropomorphic animals in their natural habitat can be read as ecological films. Most Disney films carry environmental messages as anti- hunting or anti-domestication when the films are analysed through ecological theories combined with a new media theory and concepts considering spectator engagement. Bambi and Finding Nemo are films that contain a sense of immediacy and therefore their respectively anti-hunting and anti-domestication messages are apparent. This immediacy misses in The Jungle Book, however through a sense of place this can still be seen as an ecological film, with a minor message of preservation. Tarzan bears an anti-hunting message through the anthropological machine and the immediacy of the film. This same anti-hunting message is perceived in The Fox and the Hound, although less apparent due to the lack of immediacy. The last film is Brother Bear although there is a self-reflexive element in this film, the anti-hunting message is not perceived due to the lack of Nature as an ideal.

    The Escape! Radio Program Dee-Scription: Home >> D D Too Home >> Radio Logs >> Escape! Background Dramas of escape, romance and adventure comprised a great deal of the drama anthologies during the Golden Age of Radio. One might well make the argument that adventure dramas broadcast over one canon or another throughout the era were among the top five most popular genres of the era. They also found their way into any number of adventure productions, a sampling of which follow: 1930 World Adventures 1931 Strange Adventure 1932 Bring'em Back Alive 1932 Captain Diamond’s Adventures 1932 Captain Jack 1932 The Elgin Adventurer's Club 1932 World Adventurer's Club 1933 The Stamp Adventurer’s Club 1935 The Desert Kid 1935 Magic Island 1937 The Cruise of The Poll Parrot 1937 True Adventures 1937 Your Adventurers 1939 Imperial Intrigue 1939 The Order of Adventurers 1940 Thrills and Romance 1941 Adventure Stories 1942 Road to Danger 1942 The Whistler 1943 Escape From . 1943 Foreign Assignment 1943 Romance 1944 Adventure Ahead 1944 Dangerously Yours 1944 Stories of Escape 1944 The Man Called 'X' 1944 Vicks Matinee Theater 1945 Adventure 1946 Tales of Adventure 1947 Adventure Parade 1947 Escape! 1947 High Adventure 1947 The Adventurer's Club 1948 This Is Adventure 1949 Dangerous Assignment 1950 Stand By for Adventure 1952 Escape with Me 1953 The Adventurer 1974 CBS Radio Mystery Theater 1977 General Mills Radio Adventure Theater 1977 CBS Radio Adventure Theater Announcement of Escape to air in the summer of 1947 During an era when the word 'romance' still implied adventure as well as emotional and physical passion, the words 'romance' and 'adventure' were often viewed as synonymous with each other in the titles of hundreds of Radio canons of both the earliest and latest Golden Age Radio broadcasts.
