If You Are Collecting Political Cartoons for Your Projects, You MUST Consider the Questions Below As Part of the Analytical Effort # of slides ________ grade _______ ______________________________ name / class time Grading Criteria and Guidelines for Collecting and Analyzing Political Cartoons for the Government Term Project If you are collecting political cartoons for your projects, you MUST consider the questions below as part of the analytical effort. The Project needs to be a complete effort, not just random cartoons thrown together!! You may organize them around a common set of themes or have a variety of topics. Be creative!! The length is up to you; it is a JUDGMENT call for you to determine what effort you expend for 20% of your grade as a semester project. However, it is expected that there will be 35-55 slides. Typically, a term paper takes 6-8 hours to research, compile, and prepare; so this project is expected to take a comparable amount of time. Do NOT underestimate the amount of time required. Minimum effort receives a minimum grade. Acquiring the cartoon: Copy the cartoon from the website by right clicking it, then move to the Ppt. frame and paste it into place. Re-size it and format in Power Point as you wish for a quality, professional presentation. Do NOT stretch the images or distort them unnecessarily. No one likes their photo stretched. You have many choices, so choose cartoons with themes that you are interested in, that you understand, and that you care about. Do NOT choose cartoons that you do not understand or that have words you do not know!! Do NOT confuse funnies/COMICS/jokes with political cartoons, which are found on the editorial page!! Funnies/Comics are not political in nature and are not appropriate unless you link the topic to a political issue. Example: Food or weather are not political issues unless you mention global warming or food safety, nutrition, cost, etc. and an appropriate role of government to regulate or improve the situation. _________ Power Point Project Format: Do not put the cartoon image and the text on separate slides!! Position them side-by-side so the viewer can look at the cartoon and read the text at the same time. Position the text box with your comments next to the cartoon for easy reference. Be careful not to overlap the textbox with the cartoon so it is difficult to read or run it off the frame. _________ Design Templates: A design template is a uniform base color and graphic theme provided by Microsoft as part of a PowerPoint shell. It can enhance the continuity of the presentation OR they can obstruct the content and distract from it. Be tasteful and professional. Often simple is best, though certainly do not be boring. I do not use templates, because often the uniformity becomes monotonous and boring. Your purpose is to stimulate the Viewers interest and keep it throughout the presentation. _________ Fonts: Be careful using italic, specialty, or novelty fonts because they are usually not installed on other computers. When the file is re-opened on another PC, they cannot display so garbage results. Choose fonts that are visually strong and easy to read. Avoid scripts and ornamental fonts. Do NOT overlay text on photos that make the text unreadable. Your purpose is effective communication and TEACHING, so it must be legible. _________ Animation: Be VERY careful using animation [i.e. do not use it] and dramatic slide transition between slides because it can be time consuming for you to create, annoying to the viewer, and distracting from your analysis, which is the most important part. Pre-set timing and animation are usually too slow or too fast; and difficult to override by the Viewer. The Viewer is not a hostage for your ‘magic show’ to dazzle with special visual effects, sound, and chaotic movement. Please do NOT do this and points will be deducted if you do. These are gimmicks, so focus on the content and your analysis. _________ Headings and titles on the slides will give the presentation structure and organization, especially when the theme changes. Use a divider slide to further information about the topic. _________ Title Slide Give it an imaginative and descriptive title, your name, date, course, class time, etc. Save the file as your name and class time. On the due date, bring the file to class on a flash drive to copy to the Instructor's flash. DE classes should upload and submit through the assignments window. Do not email it. _________ Table of Contents / Themes of the Collection of Cartoons / List of Artists. This will help you organize the project and make sure you have met all the requirements; and it helps me understand its structure. It does not have to be detailed. _________ Introductory Narrative This is a necessity and points will be deducted if it is not included. Use complete sentences and write in paragraphs. What is the purpose of the Project, your philosophy, and is there a goal or theme? What are your observations on the topics, and why did you choose this over a paper? This is your approach to defining the problem /situation, communicating it to the viewer, and finding solutions jointly with the cartoonists. Max Beauregard, Houston Community College Govt 2305 & 2306 _________ This is a substitute project for WRITING, so you must demonstrate competent, college writing skill. You must use COMPLETE SENTENCES and short paragraphs for each group of ideas and separate them with line spaces. You MUST observe proper grammar, spelling, verb tense, capitalization, punctuation, and all rules of English in your commentary!! Do NOT use slang, clichés, abbreviations, or vulgarity. No BULLETS!!. Do NOT use slang, clichés, abbreviations, or vulgarity. Learn about the cartoonists / journalists and their role in the community: The job of a journalist (whether electronic, print, or radio) is to be a “watchdog,” investigate, research, and expose the activities of government to the taxpayers. Usually this involves corruption, fraud, misuse of public money, or inappropriate behavior. A cartoonist has the special position and power to communicate in a concise, graphical way; and often with humor. His job is to bring awareness of a situation and provoke discussion (possibly outrage) amongst the citizens to arouse their participation; and increase their involvement in the political process. Watch some of the video interviews of selected artists posted online. _________ Pick several artists that you like (minimum 3) from the list at then end of this assignment (or any others you find). Purpose of the project is to get you to read a newspaper and become more aware of controversial issues satirized by cartoonists. Do NOT choose all or the majority of your material from a single source or cartoonist!! __________ Pick a variety of local, state, and national issues to broaden your realm and understanding of the problems facing the country and the approach used by journalists to support or criticize public policy. Choose issues relevant to class that can expand your knowledge of these issues and the people or government agenices involved! ________ Give a short profile or biography for each artist you choose, especially the newspaper they draw for. Is there anything significant, famous, or powerful about their publisher and their ability to influence large groups of people? What kind of background do cartoonists have and how much money do they make? Is this a job you would want? ________ Describe what is a Pulitzer Prize and why is it prestigious? Cartooning is a form of journalism, but it has its own critics and recognition awards for outstanding quality. ________ Explore the cartoon as ART. Some drawings are black & white and very detailed like a fine arts etching (Ben Sargent), while others are more childish and cartoon-like. Mike Thompson uses both day-glo colors and muted neutrals so to create contrast and a dynamic focus for his art. What do you like and why have you chosen this cartoonist? Make a sketch of your own of an issue if you have artistic talent, or if you can draw, include some of your own original work. ________ Feel free to interview or ask your favorite cartoonist some questions. Either phone or email for an appointment. Cartoonists are celebrities like any other famous person and they love their fans! With so much communication done by email, people are often eager to talk and interact personally, especially ‘old school’ professionals who are used to using the phone. The phone is your most powerful tool to get immediate information directly from the source. _________ Include a few slides to discuss the importance of cartooning as an expression FREE SPEECH and the threat imposed to the world by the 2015 terrorist attacks on the newspaper CHARLIE HEBDO in Paris and that have become common place around the world. _________ Your analysis. What are the cartoonists trying to say other than the obvious? Read between the lines of the actual images or captions of the cartoon and explain their purpose!! Your analysis is the heart of the project. Analysis means discussing the who, what, where, when, why, and how that make the cartoon an issue. Draw parallels between topics of the class and the cartoons. “Connect the dots” between issues in class to the outside world. Why is this topic worthy of satire and WHY are they so critical of political issues? Are cartoonists fair with their judgment of the President or other topics? Is the bias consistent with the position of the newspaper or the community? _________ Give YOUR thoughts and ideas on these issues!! What do YOU think about the issue and the cartoonist’s opinion? Do you agree with the cartoon and what is your opinion? How does this issue affect you and your family? The cartoon collections and analysis should be a reflection of your ideas and values.

The thesis may not be reproduced elsewhere without the permission of the Author. Cartoons and the new anti-Semitism A thesis presented in fulÀ lment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Design at Massey University College of Creative Arts Wellington New Zealand Steven W. Smith 2012 Cartoons and the new anti-Semitism | Abstract ii Abstract This thesis examines how the use of the Star of David symbol in cartoons published in the three months following the May 31, 2010 Gaza Á otilla incident reÁ ects a global new anti-Semitism. The objective is to identify and examine how particular signiÀ ers in editorial-style cartoons are used to communicate an anti-Semitic message. Over the three-month period immediately following the Á otilla incident the mechanical and automatic retrieval method, Google Alerts captured cartoons published internationally on the Internet each day. Roland Barthes’ theory of systematic semiotic analysis was employed to examine visual aspects of cartoons for signs which connoted anti- Semitic messages against a framework of criteria drawn from a synthesis of recognised deÀ nitions of anti-Semitism. The research supports claims that a new anti-Semitism has spread into the consciousness of mainstream culture. The research suggests that criticism of Israel via the medium of cartoons can cross the line from legitimate criticism to established anti-Semitic manifestations. Cartoons and the new anti-Semitism | Acknowledgements iii Acknowledgements Thank you to: Massey University’s Associate Professor Claire Robinson and Patricia Thomas for their supervision and guidance throughout this thesis, my parents for their unfailing support, my young children who sacriÀ ced time with their father during the course of researching and writing, my cherished wife, Deborah, whose loving sacriÀ ces made the undertaking of this thesis possible.

  • Measuring Anti-Americanism in Editorial Cartoons By
    Measuring Anti-Americanism in Editorial Cartoons By: Mark Long, Rick L. Bunch, and Robert Earl Lloyd Long, M., Bunch, R.L., & Lloyd, R.E. (2009). Measuring anti-Americanism in editorial cartoons. Social Science Quarterly, 90, 652-673. DOI: 10.1111/j.1540-6237.2009.00636.x. ***Note: This version of the document is not the copy of record. Made available courtesy of Wiley-Blackwell. The definitive version is available at www3.interscience.wiley.com. ***Note: Figures may be missing from this version of the document. Abstract: Objective- Anti-Americanism has been subjected to minimal statistical analysis. Further, scant attention is paid to what constitutes anti-Americanism for Americans. The objective of this article is to measure Americans' perceptions of anti-Americanism. Methods- Using a range of quantitative methods, including Pearson's correlation coefficient, Shannon's entropy measure, and Cohen's d statistics, we measure students' evaluations of editorial cartoons after 9/11. Twin measures of message and equity, along with participant and cartoon variables, are used to calibrate anti-Americanism in Spanish and U.S. editorial cartoons. Results- Our results indicate that message ratings, that is, anti- or pro-American, were more dependent on the nature of the cartoons than of the participants. White males rated these editorial cartoons as more equitable than other participants. The study shows that Spanish cartoons were rated significantly more anti-American. Conclusion- The article concludes that the use of U.S. icons is key to seeing anti-Americanism, along with gender, race, and origin of cartoon. Article: Anti-Americanism is increasingly salient in popular and scholarly discourses in the United States in this early part of the 21st century, as America's image has “plummeted throughout much of the world” (Kohut, 2007:13).
