  • Clare Domenico Olsen T/RS 25 May 2020 Spirited Away Anime Has Been an Important Part of Many People's Culture. from Shows
    Clare Domenico Olsen T/RS 25 May 2020 Spirited Away Anime has been an important part of many people’s culture. From shows like Pokemon and Naruto, to movies like Your Name and A Silent Voice. Personally, I do not watch a lot of anime in my time, but one of my favorite movies of all time is called Spirited Away, which is by the world famous director, Hayao Miyazaki, who owns the company Studio Ghibli. If i were to compare Miyazaki to somebody else, I would compare him to Walt Disney, since if you think about it, with his ratings and reviews, Miyazaki is basically the Walt Disney of Japan. His movies are filled with beautiful sceneries, music scores that will give you chills, and a story that will impact the viewer in every way, shape, and form. Every single one of the movies that this company brings out to the public is loved and cherished by many. Some, like the movie Totoro and Ponyo, are funny and light-hearted. Other movies by Miyazaki and Studio Ghibli, like Princess Mononoke and Howl’s Moving Castle, are more serious, and are better watched by an older audience so they can understand the main point and plot of the movie. One of my favorite movies by this company and director is called Spirited Away. Spirited Away was the first ever Studio Ghibli film I watched when I was a kid, and after watching it, I was hooked. The colors, sounds, and scenery were something at which I have never seen before in my life, and it drew me into the story and message it tries to obtain the viewer to have.

  • Tesi Di Laurea
    Corso di Laurea magistrale in LINGUE E ISTITUZIONI ECONOMICHE E GIURIDICHE DELL’ASIA E DELL’AFRICA MEDITERRANEA [LM4-12] Tesi di Laurea L’arte del silenzio Il simbolismo nel cinema di Shinkai Makoto Relatore Ch. Prof.ssa Roberta Maria Novielli Correlatore Ch. Prof. Davide Giurlando Laureando Carlotta Noè Matricola 838622 Anno Accademico 2016 / 2017 要旨要旨要旨 この論文の目的は新海誠というアニメーターの映画的手法を検討する ことである。近年日本のアニメーション業界に出現した新海誠は、写実的な スタイルで風景肖像を描くことと流麗なアニメーションを創作することと憂 鬱な物語で有名である。特に、この検討は彼の作品の中にある自分自身の人 生、愛情、人間関係の見方を伝えるための記号型言語に集中するつもりであ る。 第一章には新海誠の伝記、フィルモグラフィとその背景にある経験に 焦点を当たっている。 第二章は監督の映画のテーマに着目する。なかでも人は互いに感情を 言い表せないこと、離れていること、そして愛のことが一番大切である。確 かに、彼の映画の物語は愛情を中心に回るにもかかわらず、結局ハッピーエ ンドの映画ではない。換言すれば、新海誠の見方によると、愛は勝つはずで はない。新海誠は別の日本のアニメーターや作家から着想を得ている。その ため、次はそれに関係があるテクニックとスタイルを検討するつもりである。 第三章には新海誠の作品の分析を通して視覚言語と記号型言語が発表 される。一般的な象徴以外に、伝統、神話というふうに、日本文化につなが る具体的なシンボルがある。一方、西洋文化に触れる言及もある。例えば、 音楽や学術研究に言及する。 こうして、新海誠は異なる文化を背景を問わず観客の皆に同じような感情を 感じさせることができる。 最後に、後付けが二つある。第一に、新海誠が演出したテレビコマー シャルとプロモーションビデオが分析する。第二に、新海誠と宮崎駿という アニメーターを比較する。新海誠の芸術様式は日本のアニメーションを革新 したから、“新宮崎”とよく呼ばれている。にもかかわらず、この呼び名を 離れる芸術様式の分野にも、筋の分野にも様々な差がある。特に、宮崎駿の アニメーションに似ている新海誠の「星を追うこども」という映画を検討す る。 1 L’ARTE DEL SILENZIO Il simbolismo nel cinema di Shinkai Makoto 要旨要旨要旨 …………………………………………………………………………………………………………….Pg.1 INTRODUZIONE …………………………………………………………………………………………..Pg.4 CAPITOLO PRIMO: Shinkai Makoto……………………………………………………………………………………………Pg.6 1.1 Shinkai Makoto, animatore per caso 1.2 Filmografia, sinossi e riconoscimenti CAPITOLO SECONDO : L’arte di Shinkai Makoto……………………………………………………………………………..Pg.18

    Yoshioka, Shiro. "Princess Mononoke: A Game Changer." Princess Mononoke: Understanding Studio Ghibli’s Monster Princess. By Rayna Denison. London: Bloomsbury Academic, 2017. 25–40. Bloomsbury Collections. Web. 25 Sep. 2021. <http:// dx.doi.org/10.5040/9781501329753.ch-001>. Downloaded from Bloomsbury Collections, www.bloomsburycollections.com, 25 September 2021, 01:01 UTC.

Among these, Mononokehime ( Princess Mononoke , 1997) and the period leading up to it from the early 1990s, as I argue in this chapter, had a great impact on the rest of Miyazaki’s career. In the fi rst section of this chapter, I discuss how Miyazaki grew sceptical about the style of his fi lmmaking as a result of cataclysmic changes in the political and social situation both in and outside Japan; in essence, he questioned his production of entertainment fi lms featuring adventures with (pseudo- )European settings, and began to look for something more ‘substantial’. Th e result was a grave and complex story about civilization set in medieval Japan, which was based on aca- demic discourses on Japanese history, culture and identity.

  • YOUR NAME Af MAKOTO SHINKAI
    YOUR NAME af MAKOTO SHINKAI Undervisningsmateriale Fag: Mediefag og dansk (filmkundskab og medier – folkeskolen) (Der er aspekter af filmen, man også vil kunne arbejde med i naturfag og geografi) Niveau: 9. og 10. klasse samt gymnasiale uddannelser Forfatter: Katrine Sommer Boysen Bag om filmen Makoto Shinkai er et af japansk animationsfilms allerstærkeste navne netop nu. Hans fantastisk flotte tidsrejseeventyr, ’Your Name’, der havde premiere i hjemlandet i 2016, har allerede vist sig at være en af de mest populære japanske film nogensinde; faktisk er det ikke siden den ukronede animartionskonge Hayao Miyazakis mesterværk ’Chihiro og heksene’ fra 2001, at en japansk film har nydt så stor succes. Makoto Shinkai spås da også at blive Miyazakis arvtager. Makoto besidder samme særlige evne som Miyazaki til at bruge animationsfilmens potentiale til at søge nye veje og fortælle historier, der bryder med gængse genrekonventioner. Miyazaki er kendt for sin karakteristiske æstetik og fabulerende evne til at blande realisme og overjordiske universer i film som ’Min nabo Totoro’ (1988), ’Det levende slot’ (2004) og ’Ponyo på klippen ved havet’ (2008). De fleste af Miyazakis spillefilm har været i dansk distribution (nogle flere år efter deres japanske premiere), mens ’Your Name’ er den første af Shinkais film, der kan opleves i de danske biografer. Synopsis I den provinsielle bjergby, Itomori bor teenagepigen Mitsuha (stemme af Mone Kamishiraishi) sammen med sin lillesøster og overtroiske bedstemor, der fortæller historier om tusmørkets kræfter og en ganske særlig sake. Hendes far er politiker, men ham ser hun ikke meget til. Mitsuha drømmer om storbyen og ønsker at flytte til Tokyo straks efter endt studentereksamen.

  • Allusion As a Cinematic Device
    I’VE SEEN THIS ALL BEFORE: ALLUSION AS A CINEMATIC DEVICE by BRYCE EMANUEL THOMPSON A THESIS Presented to the Department of Cinema Studies and the Robert D. Clark Honors College in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Bachelor of Arts June 2019 An Abstract of the Thesis of Bryce Thompson for the degree of Bachelor of Arts in the Department of Cinema Studies to be taken June 2019 Title: I’ve Seen this All Before: Allusion as a Cinematic Device Approved: _______________________________________ Daniel Gómez Steinhart Scholarship concerning allusion as a cinematic device is practically non- existent, however, the prevalence of the device within the medium is quite abundant. In light of this, this study seeks to understand allusion on its own terms, exploring its adaptation to cinema. Through a survey of the effective qualities of allusion, a taxonomy of allusionary types, film theory, and allusion’s application in independent cinema, it is apparent that allusion excels within the cinematic form and demonstrates the great versatility and maximalist nature of the discipline. With the groundwork laid out by this study, hopefully further scholarship will develop on the topic of allusion in order to properly understand such a pervasive and complex tool. ii Acknowledgements I would like to thank my thesis committee of Professor Daniel Steinhart, Professor Casey Shoop, and Professor Allison McGuffie for their continued support, mentorship, and patience. I would also like to thank Professor Louise Bishop who has been immensely helpful in my time at university and in my research. I have only the most overwhelming gratitude towards these gracious teachers who were willing to guide me through this strenuous but rewarding process, as I explore the maddening and inexact world of allusion.

  • The Walt Disney Company: a Corporate Strategy Analysis
    The Walt Disney Company: A Corporate Strategy Analysis November 2012 Written by Carlos Carillo, Jeremy Crumley, Kendree Thieringer and Jeffrey S.

Other cases are available at: http://robins.richmond.edu/centers/case-network.html "Walt was never afraid to dream. That song from Pinocchio, 'When You Wish Upon a Star,' is the perfect summary of Walt's approach to life: dream big dreams, even hopelessly impossible dreams, because they really can come true. Sure, it takes work, focus and perseverance. But anything is possible. Walt proved it with the impossible things he accomplished."1 It is well documented that Walt Disney had big dreams and made several large gambles to propel his visions. From the creation of Steamboat Willie in 1928 to the first color feature film, “Snow White and the Seven Dwarves” in 1937, and the creation of Disneyland in Anaheim, CA during the 1950’s, Disney risked his personal assets as well as his studio to build a reality from his dreams. While Walt Disney passed away in the mid 1960’s, his quote, “If you can dream it, you can do it,”2 still resonates in the corporate world and operations of The Walt Disney Company.
