...radi An analysis of storytelling and Joseph Campbell’s universal themes and their role in animated films. Theodore Hicks Word count: 1,711 Feedback: quite broad terms. Where there is some analysis it is very short and this needs developing further. Much of this is down to Analysis, Argument There is some analysis here but it is very limited. ON the whole you are describing events and stories in animation in quite broad terms. Where there is some analysis it is very short and this needs developing further. Much of this is down to your choice of question. If you had picked a couple of Disney/Pixar films and analysed them in more detail in relation to Campbell, your essay would have been more focused. Outlining this narrowing in the question will help with this, as reading the essay, this is where the topic really lies. You need to be able to show Campbell’s theories working across more than one film for it to be a successful piece of analysis at this stage, and in doing so, it will help you reach a central argument about the use of Campbell’s theories in discussing these films – at the moment this doesn’t happen. This is the section you need to work on the most, to increase your word count and extend the overall discussion. Structure, communication, referencing/bibliography The structure is generally ok, with an introduction, and a conclusion. You need to work on some of the in between sections as the essay jumps between ideas of outlining theories, linking some...

...Title of the paper: “A STUDY ON INFLUENCE OF CELEBRITY ADVERTISEMENT IN TELEVISION ON CONSUMERS’ PURCHASE DECISION” Authors: 1. C.Gomathy, PSGR Krishnammal College for Women, Coimbatore. “A STUDY ON INFLUENCE OF CELEBRITY ADVERTISEMENT IN TELEVISION ON CONSUMERS’ PURCHASE DECISION” *Mrs.C.Gomathy ABSTRACT The impact of television is vital because of its enormous potential as an audio-visual communicator. Television enables the creative man to communicate by combining motion, sounds, words, color, personality and stage setting to express and demonstrate ideas to large and widely distributed audience. T.V. advertisements usually play a role in either introducing a product reinforcing the familiarity to the product and also convincing to purchase the product. Advertisements are among the most visible of the marketing strategy and have been the subject of a great deal of attention in the last ten to fifteen years. Advertisement cannot only change emotions but give subliminal message. Celebrity Advertising has become a significant tool for creating awareness of products. The important point in celebrity advertising is the effectiveness with which they are endorsing the product. By the mere presence of celebrity, the product will not make a sale.

...Life Cycle Management Analysis Samantha Puckett Axia College of University of Phoenix Solid marketing strategies are the essential key for many successful businesses. Organizations must organize a marketing department that is responsible for developing the best marketing plan that will advertise their new products in order to inform consumers of their product in the initial introductory phase of selling the product. After consumers are aware of the product, positive word-of-mouth marketing can make boost the product sales. Apple, Inc. designed and marketed today’s most popular portable media player known as an iPod. These MP3 players are devices that allow consumers to shop on a jukebox type website created for iPod users known as iTunes that enables consumers to purchase, download, listen, and watch as they play music, games, videos, and store pictures on their devices. In today’s society, when mentioning MP3 players during a conversation, the first thing that would come to most people’s mind would be an iPod. The introduction stage of promoting the iPod; however, was evidently proven to be unsuccessful. Apple Computer, which is currently known as Apple, Inc., initially set out to revolutionize digital music with the iPod. The company focused on developing a device that was fashionable for all ages as well as men, women, boys, and girls. They did not consider the price of the product, but rather they focused on the quality with better options to their devices as opposed...

...in the late 90s. It takes most of its roots from the south-eastern genre of American music folk song and some forms of African musical elements. Moreover, jazz has inculcated some elements of America popular secular song. Jazz music often consists of dance and ballads tunes with occasional simpler forms of harmonies orchestrated and accompanied with some string instruments and saxophone (Frith, 12) Catalina’s Jazz Club in Hollywood is the best place to be every weekend to enjoy some of the best jazz music in US. The type of music played here is one of the best rated jazz music globally. Some of the best performers here include; Gary Taylor, Charnett Moffett and Jack Jones jazz band among others. As usual, the weekend of 27th June was no exceptional, Jack Jones band was competing with a new band in town called Ron Carter trio band. Both bands are led by Jack and Carter respectively. Jones performed some of his newly composed music jazz genre, and he tried convince the whole crowd why he wanted his band to be recognised the best band in jazz music. His music was well orchestrated and organised with most of the instrument tuned to their right tune, played in the right keys and rhythm. Indeed Jones band members tried to remain on the right keynotes always throughout the music play. However, there rose a problem when the saxophone player went off key, perhaps it was because of a change of song since it was a three-music nonstop competition. Ron Carter trio band, led by Carter, was...

...Shakespeare. Set in the Kingdom of Denmark, the play dramatizes the revenge Prince Hamlet exacts on his uncle Claudius for murdering King Hamlet, Claudius's brother and Prince Hamlet's father, and then succeeding to the throne and taking as his wife Gertrude, the old king's widow and Prince Hamlet's mother. The play vividly portrays both true and feigned madness – from overwhelming grief to seething rage – and explores themes of treachery, revenge, incest, and moral corruption. Hamlet is Shakespeare's longest play and among the most powerful and influential tragedies in the English language, with a story capable of "seemingly endless retelling and adaptation by others." The play was one of Shakespeare's most popular works during his lifetime It has inspired writers from Goethe and Dickens to Joyce and Murdoch, and has been described as "the world's most filmed story after Cinderella". Shakespeare based Hamlet on the legend of Amleth, preserved by 13th-century chronicler Saxo Grammaticus in his Gesta Danorum as subsequently retold by 16th-century scholar François de Belleforest. He may also have drawn on or perhaps written an earlier Elizabethan play known today as the Ur-Hamlet. He almost certainly created the title role for Richard Burbage, the leading tragedian of Shakespeare's time. In the 400 years since, the role has been performed by highly acclaimed actors and actresses from each successive age. Three different early versions of the play are extant, the First Quarto, the Second...

...As You Like It Summary How It All Goes Down Sir Rowland de Boys has recently died, leaving behind sons Oliver and Orlando. Since Oliver's the eldest son, he's inherited just about everything. This includes the responsibility of making sure his little bro finishes school and continues to live the kind of lifestyle he's become accustomed to as the son of a nobleman. (By the way, this lifestyle looks like a sixteenth-century version of MTV's Teen Cribs.) Oliver, however, treats his little bro like a servant – he refuses to pay for Orlando's education and never gives the kid any spending money. Also, he tells the local court wrestler it would be a good idea to snap Orlando's neck, but Orlando doesn't know about this. Naturally, Orlando is ticked off that Oliver treats him so badly and he's ready to "mutiny" against his older bro. Instead, he channels all of his pent up anger into a wrestling match, where he beats the court wrestler to a bloody pulp. Orlando's wrestling skillz catch the eye of a local girl named Rosalind, who has her own family drama to worry about. (Ros is the daughter of Duke Senior, who used to rule over the French court but was overthrown by his snaky, backstabbing brother, Duke Frederick. Because Rosalind's dad is living in exile in the Forest of Arden, Rosalind has been crashing at the palace with her BFF/cousin, Celia. Did we mention that Celia is the daughter of snaky, backstabbing Duke Frederick? And you thought your family had issues…) Rosalind...

MARCH Student: Louize Zara Dierickx (Erasmus Belgium) INTRODUCTION During the Elizabethan era meta-theatre was often used in plays to obtain the interest and participation (imagination) from the audience. Also Shakespeare used a lot of metaphors and references to theatre in his plays. In this research paper we will study the use of meta-theatre in Shakespeare’s famous play A Midsummer Night’s Dream. First, the term ‘meta-theatre’ will be explained. Then, the period in which meta-theatre was an important aspect of theatre, also Shakespeare’s period, namely the Elizabethan Era, will be discussed. Finally, a number of specific scenes in the play A Midsummer Night’s Dream will be analysed. Midsummer night’s dream is a romantic comedy. The play has 2 levels: the human world, which takes place during the day, and the fairy world, which takes place at night. In the human world the story is about 4 young people, searching their way to true love, as well as about a theatre company, preparing a play for the coming wedding of the king and queen. At the fairy level, the fairy king and queen quarrel about their marriage. These two levels are combined by a love potion, which turns the whole story upside-down and gives it its humoristic touch.
