3 Nov_Essay for Chris’ Course_Bobei Wu

Today, I’ll talk about my plan for the essay. I chose the film UP.
I divide this talk into two parts.
First, I will describe the structure of my essay.
Then, I will talk about the main ideas of my essay.
Now, let’s turn to the next page.

The structure of my essay.
I will divide my essay into three parts—discourse, which discusses animation ideas from different views. And the bibliography most from Chris’ supporting material.
The second part is an analysis of the Up. It is also the most important part of my essay.
The analysis will include the relationship between film and audience, film languages, historical circumstances. The last part is the conclusion. Most of the bibliography is from Chris’s course PPT and other official websites.

Some reading notes from bibliography

Now, let’s turn to the next page—the relationship between audience and film.
And, I will focus on what goes on inside the audience’s mind is given by the movie. The filmmaker makes a connection between the film and the audience’s mind.
Take an example from the UP. Please look at the light yellow picture; our brain can get the information that the characters are preparing a baby room in a happy mood. We can get a happy feeling as well. As a contrast, the dark clod screenshot gives us a heavy sadness mood. I will combine with animation paper and film languages to deep analysis.

Now, let’s turn to the next page—the film languages.
There are a lot of film languages created by former filmmakers, such as Montage, editing, narrative. I will use film languages for analysis UP—for example, the editing, match action.
Please look at two pictures, and there is a sound match in this fragment, with the pop of the balloon which the boy relies on, the sound of a balloon connect with the sound of camera flash, and the next frame is the camera flash. And there is also a narrative match in this fragment, in the frame with the boy, the plot is girl said to the boy I like you, and the next frame with camera flash, is the wedding photography with grown boy and girl.I will combine with animation paper and official website to deep analysis.

one of the official websites for film language

Now, let’s turn to the next page—the creative environment. I will do more research from the official websites to find the historical circumstance of UP.Such as creating the main character; Is there a new technique during the filmmaking process?
How does the film impact the real world?

Here is news about an old woman who has the same situation with the film UP.
I will do more research from the official websites and papers to find the film’s impact on the real world.
That’s all my presentation, thanks. OvO
