Unit 4 2.1 Addition

AO
2.1 Critically compare a range of contexts within which creative media technology and production are situated.

You have done this
https://lrunit4ual.blogspot.com/p/1.html

You need to add to it a little to complete AO 2.1

You need to add this to your unit 4 blog at the bottom of your representation page

Select 2 from the following tasks.

1- Do the Bechdel Test on a short scene from The Apartment and compare to a recent show/film that you have watched recently. What were the differences in results? Why do you think the results were what they were?

2 - The Oscars have had a fair bit of worthy criticism around equality and diversity in the last few years. Using either 2013, 2016 or 2020 - discuss why those events and years raised concerns about the progress of the filmmaking industry and discuss what might be done to have more equality and representation in the film industry.

2013 - https://www.newyorker.com/news/amy-davidson/seth-macfarlane-and-the-oscars-hostile-ugly-sexist-night
2016 - http://www.bbc.co.uk/newsbeat/article/35349772/oscars-so-white-what-people-are-saying-about-diversity-in-hollywood
2020 - https://www.vanityfair.com/hollywood/2020/02/oscars-2020-female-directors

3 - Argue for/against The Apartment being misogynistic? Was this an issue at the time? Would it be now?

4 - Research 'Me Too' movement on google, summarise the movement and detail how this might this affect a film you make at college?

                            OLAF
               

                  Hi everyone. I'm Olaf. And I
                  like warm hugs.

                            ANNA
                  Olaf?...That's right, Olaf.
                                                       
                            OLAF
                  ...And you are?

                            ANNA
                  Oh, um...I'm Anna.

                            OLAF
                  And who's the funky-looking donkey
                  over there?

                            ANNA
                  That's Sven.

                            OLAF
                  Uh-huh. And who's the reindeer?

                            ANNA
                  ...Sven.

                            OLAF
                  Oh. They're--oh, okay....
                  Makes things easier for me.
                  Ha. Aw, look at him tryin' to kiss
                  my nose.
                  I like you, too!

                            ANNA
                  Olaf, did Elsa build you?

                               OLAF
                  Yeah. Why?

                            ANNA
                  Do you know where she is?

                            KRISTOFF
                  Fascinating...

                               OLAF
                  Yeah. Why?

                            ANNA
                  Do you think you could show us the
                  way?

                               OLAF
                  Yeah. Why?

                            KRISTOFF
                  How does this work?

                             OLAF
                  Stop it, Sven. Trying to focus
                  here.
                  Yeah, why?

                            KRISTOFF
                  I'll tell you why. We need Elsa to
                  bring back summer.

                            OLAF
                  Summer?
                  Oh, I don't know why but I've
                  always loved the idea of summer,
                  and sun, and all things hot.

                            KRISTOFF
                  Really? I'm guessing you don't have
                  much experience with heat.
