Explain what is meant by the notion of ‘generic hybridity’ and the increasing role it plays in contemporary television.

Television Genre

‘It is pointless to insist on generic purity in relation to television programmes. Television genres and programming formats are notoriously hybridised and becoming more so’ (Neale, 2008). Taking examples of your own choice, explain what is meant by the notion of ‘generic hybridity’ and the increasing role it plays in contemporary television.

Demonstrate writing skills in feminist critical analysis on the politics of representation.

Disney film part 2

This project calls you to expand upon your initial analysis through the incorporation of a second Disney film or television show.

Knowledge: This project may further your learning in relation to the following course learning objectives (CLOs):

CLO 1: Demonstrate a theoretical framework for critical analysis of Disney representations in terms of gender, race, class, sexuality, and nation

CLO 2: Demonstrate writing skills in feminist critical analysis on the politics of representation

CLO 3: Discuss and explain general concepts and themes in feminist film and media studies

CLO 4: Analyze the intersections of gender, race, class, sexuality, and nation

Skills: This project will support you in cultivating the following skills. These skills are applicable in all environments in which social justice approaches and critical thinking skills are needed.
Feminist media analysis, including written analyses
Revision and the incorporation of feedback
Intersectional and other feminist methods

Critical thinking including attention to the broader systemic contexts in which media is created
Informed by instructor feedback and your deepened understanding of course frameworks and approaches, you will expand upon your initial analysis through the incorporation of a second Disney film or television show. Your analysis will place your selected film(s) or television show(s) in conversation with one another. As needed, you may also deepen, shift, expand, or otherwise amend the initial analysis that you offered in Week Four.

While there is no required research for this project beyond your selected film(s) or television show(s), you are welcome to engage (cited) learning materials and elements from your own research as is generative.

While your selected media may or may not be assigned within our course, your analysis should expand upon the content of our learning materials and/or collective learning spaces. Potential films are not confined to Disney’s animated films but must be produced under Disney. For example, The Mandalorian is Disney-produced and would therefore be an appropriate focus for this assignment, while Star Wars films created before Disney purchased Lucasfilms would not.

Watch (or re-watch) your selected Disney film or television show through intersectional and other feminist frameworks. While there is no required submission for this element of your project, the following guiding questions may be useful in engaging your selected media and/or structuring your eventual analysis.

How does reading your selected film(s) or television show(s) together deepen, shift, or expand your initial analysis and/or understanding of Disney media?

Informed by intersectional and other feminist frameworks, how are gender, race, sexuality, class, disability, and other intersecting social categories depicted within your selected media?

How are masculinity and/or femininity articulated within your selected media?

What flows of power and/or resistance are evident in your selected media?

What implicit and/or explicit narratives are told within your selected media?

When was this media produced? How does it reflect or relate to this moment or other broader social contexts?

How does your selected media affirm and/or trouble systems of oppression and their norms?

How does your selected media deepen, shift, or expand your understanding of interlocking systems of oppression including white supremacy, patriarchy, and ableism?

What creative modes of resistance and/or survival are enacted by characters marginalized within your selected media?

How was this media received by critics and/or the public when it was initially released? Have these attitudes shifted since its initial release? What are the possible implications or meanings of these attitudes?

Following this review of your selected media, you will synthesize your findings via a feminist media analysis essay that places your selected film(s) and/or television show(s) in conversation with one another (1000-1500 words). This project should reflect college-level writing practices and conventions, including proper citational (MLA (Links to an external site.)) practices. You are encouraged to make use of OSU’s Online Writing Support (OWS)Links to an external site. resources ahead of your submission in Week Seven. Detailed evaluation criteria are further discussed in the rubric.

Should hospice be the pathway accepted?What needs to happen so that a hospital or SNF can provide hospice?

Watch the movie: Being Mortal.

This movie shows the student’s understanding of hospice and the ethical challenges patients, family and physicians face when discussing options for end of life care.

To ensure the student has a good understanding of the materials, “Being Mortal” will combine all the information from LTC3020 into a real-life situation for the student to synthesize concepts and principles over the past 5 weeks.

Instructions:

After watching the movie, you are required to write a paper that includes the following:

The importance of mortality conversations with patient and family

The ethics behind continuing treatment when it appears to be futile to the prognosis of the patient

The difference between choosing hospice versus palliation

The eligibility for hospice according to the Medicare guidelines

Should hospice be the pathway accepted?What needs to happen so that a hospital or SNF can provide hospice?

Does the film also contain its own skepticism about patriarchy as well?

Movies

Answer the Questions (150 WORDS EACH QUESTIONS)

1) Rashomon is clearly a product of a deeply patriarchal culture, especially in using the story of a rape the basis for a metaphysical contemplation of the unknowability of truth and reality. Does the film also contain its own skepticism about patriarchy as well?

2) The idea of a “tale within the tale” is a really neat way to look at a story as it might be in real life. We each perceive and remember incidences differently. our interpretation is impacted by our own unique experiences along with our cultural and societal views. This could explain how the characters all had a different view of the events that took place. Of course, you would not expect that the cause of death would change from a dagger to a sword. certain details should remain the same, but how it happened can be told differently from each different character. The one thing that I did not understand, is they would have known if the man was killed by a dagger, or a sword and could have ruled out at least one of the stories. Wonder why they did not leave the cause of the samurai’s death the same? making it harder for us to know who was telling the truth.

3) At least when Cleo from 5 to 7 was made, Varda was the best known woman filmmaker in the world. What effect do you see of a feminine subjectivity at work here?

This should be a short introductory paragraph: what is your arguing and why, what main points will you make to prove your overall argument?

A discussion of how will be structured,chapter by chapter

You need to give a rough outline for the topics or points for each chapter, what argument and theoretical approaches/academic standpoints you will use.You can tie this in with the next section:

A discussion of the research methods to be used (e.g. textual analysis, surveys, socio-historical contextualisation)

How have you researched this topic, what theoretical approaches,historical perspectives,cultural theories will you use? Semiotic analysis? Content analysis? Psychoanalytic theory? What are the key academic sources you will use? How are these approaches relevant to your argument?

A critical evaluation of primary and/or secondary research resources to be used.

Here you should indicate what sources you have already accessed/will access: as a rough guide, choose 5 key academic sources and explain briefly how they are useful to your dissertation. You can quote from them if you wish, but you must reference them fully and correctly using Harvard APA.

A full bibliography in APA, including any media texts (film, music, website, etc.) mentioned

You can also include an Indicative Research List of sources you have not yet accessed but will, under your Bibliography.
