  • 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.

  • PROGRAM NOTES Disney in Concert: Around the World Quincy Symphony Orchestra September 29, 2019 Quincy, IL Notes by Dr
    PROGRAM NOTES Disney in Concert: Around the World Quincy Symphony Orchestra September 29, 2019 Quincy, IL Notes by Dr. Paul Borg We begin our season with a generous offering of music from the films of the Walt Disney Company [Walt Disney Productions until 1986]. When Walt Disney died in 1966, the corporation continued his inspired and successful animated-film output. Although not all of nearly 200 animations, live-action films, television series, documentaries, or videos are equally memorable, everyone today has heard many of the songs associated with the films, whether from viewing the films, listening to recordings, or in live concerts such as this one. In the late 1920s and 30s films had newly been furnished with recorded sound, giving motion pictures real-time spoken dialogue among the characters as well as music that could entertain with songs embedded in the storyline. Music could also be employed to enhance or evoke a particular emotion--think the spooky two-note shark approach in Jaws or the "screeching" of the knife in the shower scene of Psycho. Walt Disney and his brother Roy extended these sound element to animated cartoons, short at first (Steamboat Willie) and eventually feature length (Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs). Disney's intent to continue a series of fairy tale animations was interrupted by the Second World War, during which he and his collaborators produced a series of training and propaganda films, even using Donald Duck in some comical short sketches. After the war, Disney turned his vision to television and then his entertainment parks, starting with Disneyland in 1955.

  • Redefining Gender in Disney Films from the 20Th to 21St Century Shrien Alshabasy SUNY New Paltz Honors Thesis 2018-2019
    Alshabasy 1 "A Whole New World": Redefining Gender in Disney Films from the 20th to 21st Century Shrien Alshabasy SUNY New Paltz Honors Thesis 2018-2019 Alshabasy 2 The Disney Dynasty is as familiar to American culture as apple pie. Sitting on land that is twice the size of Manhattan, the Disney Kingdom has expanded over the years to create a whole new world; a world seriously considered by cultural theorists like Baudrillard, as a simulacrum, a symbol so close to reality that it becomes hyperreality. Before water parks and resort hotels, before Disney bought out the land of orange groves and walnut trees in Anaheim, California, the Magic Kingdom began its conquest on American ideology. The Walt Disney Company started in 1923 as “The Disney Brothers Cartoon Studio,” and churned out films that embodied American ideals. Oftentimes, these films were set in 19th century rural America and featured an American hero -- usually Mickey Mouse, who could outwork and challenge any enemy big or small with his bravery. An embodiment of American ideals, Disney films became loved and endeared by audiences during morally depleting times, like the Depression years (“How Disney Came to Define What Constitutes the American Experience”). Audiences latched onto these ideals, seemingly stable, even when external factors were not. In 1938, Disney shifted gears into feature films with his vision of Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs. Although many had their doubts, after three years of work Snow White was released and it quickly became the highest grossing film of all time. Feature films became the money makers for Disney and the start of consumer fascination with Disney culture (“Disney Animation Is Closing the Book on Fairy Tales”).

    Introduction to Disney There is a long history behind Disney and many surprising facts that not many people know. Over the years Disney has evolved as a company and their films evolved with them, there are many reasons for this. So why and how has Disney changed? I have researched into Disney from the beginning to see how the company started and how they got their ideas. This all lead up to what happened in the company including the involvement of pixar, and how the Disney films changed in regards to the content and the reception. Now with the relevant facts you can make up your own mind about when Disney was at their best. Walt Disney Studios was founded in 1923 by brothers Walt Disney and Roy O. Disney. Originally Disney was called ‘Disney Brothers cartoon studio’ that produced a series of short animated films called the Alice Comedies. The first Alice Comedy was a ten minute reel called Alice’s Wonderland. In 1926 the company name was changed to the Walt Disney Studio. Disney then developed a cartoon series with the character Oswald the Lucky Rabbit this was distributed by Winkler Pictures, therefore Disney didn’t make a lot of money. Winkler’s Husband took over the company in 1928 and Disney ended up losing the contract of Oswald. He was unsuccessful in trying to take over Disney so instead started his own animation studio called Snappy Comedies, and hired away four of Disney’s primary animators to do this. Disney planned to get back on track by coming up with the idea of a mouse character which he originally named Mortimer but when Lillian (Disney’s wife) disliked the name, the mouse was renamed Mickey Mouse.

Title: Neocolonialism in Disney’s Renaissance: Analyzing Portrayals of Race and Gender in Pocahontas, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, and Atlantis: The Lost Empire. Abstract approved:_____________________________________________________ Elizabeth Sheehan The Walt Disney Company is one of the most recognizable and pervasive sources of children’s entertainment worldwide and has carefully crafted an image of childhood innocence. This wholesome image is contradicted by Disney’s consistent use of racist and sexist tropes, as well as its record of covertly using political themes in its media. Disney has a history of using its animated films to further a neocolonial ideology – an ideology that describes how current global superpowers continue to control the natural and capital resources of underdeveloped countries and to profit off of the unequal trading of these resources. The period of Disney’s history known as its animated Renaissance marked a clear return to the brand’s championing of American interventionism abroad.

  • Aging with Disney and the Gendering of Evil
    Journal of Literature and Art Studies, February 2015, Vol. 5, No. 2, 114-127 doi: 10.17265/2159-5836/2015.02.004 D DAVID PUBLISHING Aging With Disney and the Gendering of Evil Nada Ramadan Elnahla Alexandria University, Alexandria, Egypt Walt Disney animated films are considered synonymous with wholesome family entertainment despite the inherent negative messages of gender, age, and power hierarchies behind them. This paper proposes to explore the aspect of age as intersecting with gender through the villainesses in six of Disney’s popular animated films: Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs (1937), Cinderella (1950), Sleeping Beauty (1959), The Little Mermaid (1989), Tangled (2010), and Frozen (2013). How Disney alters the actions of major and minor characters, and the construction of aging female characters and the key characteristics they exhibit during their fight for eternal youth, beauty, and social and political power will be analyzed, attempting to show how Disney is not a harmless substitute for a babysitter for children. Keywords: aging, ageism, feminism, Disney, animated films, villain Introduction In 1923, Walt Disney and his brother Roy pooled their money to set up a cartoon studio in Hollywood: The Disney Brothers’ Studio. It would take Disney 14 years before the first animated feature-length version of Snow White was released. The film’s phenomenal success at the time (earning eight million dollars on its initial release and winning a full-size Oscar statuette and seven miniature ones) signaled the beginning of a golden age of animation and a rising influence of the Disney movies, brand, and theme parks.

  • Frozen and the Evolution of the Disney Heroine
    It’s a Hollywood blockbuster animation that is set to become one of the most successful and beloved family films ever made. And unlike much of Disney’s past output, writes MICHELLE LAW, this film brings positive, progressive messages about gender and difference into the hearts and minds of children everywhere. SISTERS DOIN’ IT FOR THEMSELVES Frozen and the Evolution Screen Education of the Disney Heroine I No. 74 ©ATOM 16 www.screeneducation.com.au NEW & NOTABLE & NEW P MY SISTERS DOIN’ IT FOR THEMSELVES 74 No. I Screen Education 17 ince its US release in November 2013, Disney’s latest an- imated offering,Frozen (Chris Buck & Jennifer Lee), has met with critical acclaim and extraordinary box- office success. It won this year’s Academy Awards for Best Animated Feature Film and Best Original Song (for ‘Let It Go’), and despite being released less than six months Sago, it has already grossed over US$1 billion worldwide, making it the highest-earning Disney-animated film of all time. At the time of printing, the film’s soundtrack has also spent eleven non- consecutive weeks at number one on the US Billboard charts, the most held by a soundtrack since Titanic (James Cameron, 1997). Following the success of Frozen – and Tangled (Nathan Greno & Byron Howard, 2010), Disney’s adaptation of the Rapunzel story – many are antici- pating the dawn of the second Disney animation golden age. The first was what has come to be known as the Disney Renaissance, the period from the late 1980s to the late 1990s when iconic animated films such asThe Little Mermaid (Ron Clements & John Musker, 1989) and Aladdin (Ron Clements & John Musker, 1992) – films that adopted the structure and style of Broadway musicals – saved the company from financial ruin.
