    Fall 2016 FMS Newsletter - Notes from the director - FMS expands production - Documenting China - An anthropological approach to film - Internship rundown - Faculty profile - Dudley Andrew visits Tufts - Alumni snapshot - "Starring John Cho" 1 | P a g e Notes from the FMS Director The second year of FMS is proving to be as eventful and thrilling as the first. We are continuing to attract students to the program, and are ending 2016 with over 70 majors and minors. We are also expanding our curriculum by sponsoring or co-sponsoring innovative new courses. Highlights this fall included "Race to the White House" taught by CNN political analyst David Gregory, Susan Napier's "History of Animation," and new faculty member Alexander Shraytekh's "Popular Culture and the Arab Spring." Next semester, we are tremendously fortunate that our technical support specialist Natalie Minik, who is an accomplished documentary filmmaker, will be teaching "Documentary: History, Theory and New Directions" through the Experimental College. Among the events we participated in this fall, of particular note was "A Year Like No Other: Politics & The Press in 2016," which FMS Co-director Julie Dobrow helped organize. Featuring New York Times reporter Patrick Healy, National Public Radio reporter Asma Khalid, Mic co-founder Jake Horowitz, and moderated by David Gregory, the panel offered insights into the role of the media in this tumultuous election cycle. Meanwhile, in December we welcomed to campus Dudley Andrew, the R. Selden Rose Professor of Comparative Literature and professor of Film Studies at Yale University, who gave a stimulating talk on 3D. Finally, the merger with the SMFA continued apace, and we are in the process of integrating the SMFA's curriculum with ours.

  • LAMORINDA WEEKLY | "Star Trek Into Darkness"
    LAMORINDA WEEKLY | "Star Trek Into Darkness" Published May 22nd, 2013 "Star Trek Into Darkness" By Derek Zemrak One of the most famous quotes in the Star Trek legacy is "Where no man has gone before!" This film is a huge undertaking for any director of the Star Trek franchise that has created more than 700 television shows and 12 movies. At first glance into the galaxy, I would say man has gone everywhere, but surprisingly director J.J. Abrams, who directed the first reboot in 2009, delivers a detailed storyline and a movie that is exhilarating to watch on the big screen. Moviegoers will be on the edge of their seats as they experience a brilliantly shot film, while they cheer on the Enterprise crew to succeed in battle against the evil villain of mass destruction. Once again Chris Pine ("Bottle Shock," "Rise of the Guardians") returns as Captain Kirk and Zachary Quinto ("Margin Call," "Heroes," "American Horror Story") portrays Spock. As with the cult popular television series, it is the ensemble cast that makes it all work, with Zoe Saldana ("Avatar") as Uhura, Karl Urban ("The Lord of the Rings") as Bones, Simon Pegg ("Ice Age") as Scotty, and John Cho From left: Zachary Quinto is Spock and Chris Pine is ("Harold & Kumar") as Sulu. It should be noted that not one Kirk in "Star Trek Into Darkness" from Paramount of these cast members is a scene hog like William Shatner Pictures and Skydance Productions.

  • From the Workshop of JJ Abrams
    CHAPTER SIX From the Workshop of J. J. Abrams: Bad Robot, Networked Collaboration, and Promotional Authorship Leora Hadas University of Nottingham Whether ‘New golden age’ (Leopold, 2013) or ‘Peak TV’ (Paskin, 2015) – whatever glowing accolades cultural commentators now choose to use, all describe television in the United States as going from strength to strength. For a sustained number of years now, critics and popular opinion alike has celebrated a qualitative transformation in the output of an industry that has struggled for years to shed the image of a ‘vast wasteland’ (Minow, 1961). In critical and academic circles alike, credit for these exciting developments and the transformation of US television has tended to focus on a specific feature of the contemporary industry: the figure of the showrunner, television’s new auteur (Martin, 2013). The emergence of the showrunner-as-auteur has provided US television with a crucial source of cultural legitimacy, one traceable back to Bourdieu’s concept of the ‘“charisma” ideology’ (1980, p. 262) at work in judgements of artistic value.

    ME 577 – Human Motion Kinetics Homework #2 Solutions Posted 1/26/2018 1. In the re-worked Star Trek that came out in 2009, there is a scene where Mr. Kirk (played by Chris Pine) and Mr. Sulu (played by John Cho) FiGht Romulans on the surface of some kind oF laser drill. The physics oF the laser drill are beyond the scope oF this particular course, but you may wish to brinG it up with someone in the Physics department. At one point Mr. Sulu Falls oFF the drill. He does the smart thinG and spreads his arms and leGs to create draG and, hopeFully, control his descent. Kirk then tries to save him by literally divinG oFF the laser drill, streamlininG his FliGht, and catchinG up to Mr. Sulu. Here we are GoinG to start with a simple problem. Namely, we will determine the terminal velocity of each character. IF we assume that both heroes have masses around 80kG, then the only real diFFerence between Mr. Sulu's fall and Mr. Kirk's fall is the cross sectional area they present to the wind. For Mr. Sulu, this is approximately 0.6m2 while for Kirk, it is a much smaller 0.058m2. Compute their relative velocities at impact (assuminG they reach terminal velocity beFore impact). 2. In the first Iron Man movie, Tony Stark wearing his boot jets (not the full suit) can hover in the air using only 1% of Tmax (the maximum thrust in each boot jet) in each boot.

  • Program Updates from the VP and Program Director Doron Weber
    December 2017 Program Updates from the VP and Program Director Doron Weber FILM Search Wins 2018 Sundance Sloan Feature Film Prize Search, directed by Aneesh Chaganty and starring John Cho and Debra Messing (pictured at left), was chosen as the 2018 Sundance Sloan Feature Film Prize winner. The film tells the story of a father whose 16-year-old daughter goes missing. The thriller unfolds entirely on computer screens and follows the protagonist as he hacks into his daughter’s laptop, cell phone, and social media accounts looking for clues to find her. The jury chose the film for “its gripping and original interrogation of our evolving relationship with technology and how it mediates every other relationship in our lives, both positively and negatively, and for its rigorous formal experimentation with narrative.” This year’s jury included actress Kerry Bishé (Halt and Catch Fire), producer Nancy Buirski (Loving), cancer biologist Robert Benezra, and neuroscientist Heather Berlin. Search will premiere in Park City at the 2018 Sundance Film Festival in January, where it will be recognized at a reception hosted by Sloan and at the Festival’s Closing Awards Ceremony. Sloan-Developed Feature The Catcher Was a Spy to Premiere at Sundance Film Festival in January The Catcher Was a Spy, starring Paul Rudd, Jeff Daniels, Guy Pearce, Sienna Miller and Paul Giamatti will premiere at the 2018 Sundance Film Festival. Directed by Ben Lewin and produced by Jim Young (The Man Who Knew Infinity), the film tells the true story of Moe Berg–professional baseball player, Ivy League graduate, attorney who spoke nine languages–and a top-secret spy for the OSS who was sent to meet Werner Heisenberg during WWII and helped the U.S.

  • Asian American Representation in Media
    WHITE WASHED OUT: ASIAN AMERICAN REPRESENTATION IN MEDIA HELEN YANG Yang 2 Abstract Since the Oscars first began in 1929, less than one percent of annual Academy Award nominations have included Asian Americans. Within the one percent, they have only become notably recognized for their contributions as the tokenized character – a product of Westernized racism and discrimination – while white actors are chosen to fulfill lead Asian roles in an act of “Yellowface”. Using a three-pronged research model of statistical, historical, and psycho-sociolinguistic analyses, this study examines the societal implications of misrepresentation within the media and its affects over minority and race relations throughout the United States. Using information from the United States census and summary statistics over the demographic compositions of the Oscars, disaggregated data is used in conjunction with a historical breakdown of Asian American chronicles and documented immigrant studies. Hour-long interviews were also conducted with volunteers to inspect the negative repercussions of the model minority myth and dissect the role that media plays in cultivating implicit bias against Asian Americans and Pacific Islanders in current generations. Overall, the study discovered how underrepresentation negatively correlates with the self-esteems of Asian American individuals. The lack of accurate representation within the media significantly debilitates the confidence and self-image of Asian Americans, which contributes to long-term disadvantages during their academic lives and when pursuing careers within the Humanities and Arts. These findings suggest that misrepresentation of minorities within the media fuels systemic racism and perpetuates normalized notions built on stereotypes and falsely imposed identities of Asian Americans.
