Walt Disney Animation Studios is one of the largest animation film creators, as the first film was released in 1937, “Snow White.” These films develop numerous techniques, concepts, which are the traditional principles of the standard animation. Within the techniques are the structures of how to angle the shots to create a realistic movement of the animation. For example, in “Moana,” the scene where baby Moana is sitting listening to her grandmothers stories of their ancestors the shot is looking down at Moana, then zooms into her face to see the excitement in her eyes. The shot zooms back out to see the other children’s reactions, but the main focus was on
Walt Disney over the years has impacted the lives of millions of children with his animated films. His Disney movies have evolved in the last years and have moved from the traditional damsel in distress theme. Specifically, the classic movie Cinderella gives the wrong idea about what it is to be a woman for young girls. The movie portrays a young woman facing emotional, mental, and physical abuse by her evil stepmother and later falls in love with a charming prince. However, if viewers take a closer look, Disney’s anti feminist message is firmly emphasized. The story of Cinderella is sexist due to it’s lesson to girls that beauty and submission will award them a rich bachelor. This is seen through Cinderella’s submissive behavior, Prince

Characters of Walt Disney Animation Studio movies have become beloved all over the world since releasing its full-length animated feature film Snow White and The Seven Dwarfs in 1937, and all the way to the musical fantasy-adventure film, Moana. Young or children at heart, Disney has hit the hearts of many across the world but is there more behind the classic stories of Cinderella, Belle, and Mulan than first thought. As for the development of Disney female leads, Walt and his animators looked for stories to tell, from fables, fairy tales, legends, to the universal realities that can be found there. As the part of women has lengthened and altered, particularly in the twentieth century and now the twenty-first century, the stories are tending
Although the best reasons for “going to the movies” are to be entertained and eat popcorn, understanding a film is actually quite complex. Movies are not only a reflection of life, they also have the capability of shaping our norms, values, attitudes, and perception of life. Through the media of film, one can find stories of practically anything imaginable and some things unimaginable. Movie-makers use their art to entertain, to promote political agendas, to educate, and to present life as it is, was, or could be. They can present truth, truth as they interpret it, or simply ignore truth altogether. A movie can be a work of fiction, non-fiction, or anything in-between. A film is an artist’s interpretation. What one takes away from a film depends upon how one interprets what has been seen and heard. Understanding film is indeed difficult.
The Narrative “Confessions of a Shusher” by Phillip Lopate creates a vivid image of the atmosphere of a movie theater that contains an annoying or irritating person or couple. The purpose of this writing piece is to express the frustration of the people surrounding those who do not partake in correct movie etiquette and also how society has possibly lost its sense of respect for other persons. He is trying to convey the struggle between those who consider themselves to be “shushers” and those who do not like to be solitude in public.
For most people, movies are made for entertainment. However, there are also movies that go beyond merely entertaining its audience. There are films that have been created making use of psychological principles, which enrich the movie-viewing experience of audiences.

Walt Disney started out by producing short animated films in 1922 and in 1928 introduced Mickey Mouse, the world most famous cartoon character shown in Figure 4 below (Olsson 1996; Kramer 2002).

Films are a large part of our lives here in America where we depend on them to do when we’re bored with nothing to do, or when the snow or rain is falling. We all use movies as a common way to go on dates and be with friends. However, there has become an abundance amount of movies that we can all enjoy throughout our lives. Although not all movies are interesting to all viewers depending on their personality and what they like to watch. I can say for myself that a film that I really enjoy would be “Mean Girls”. In the two thousand four film “Mean Girls” there is a sense of entertainment that helps in combining all the aspects found in a classical film. Classical films having a entertaining and dramatic plot, and a excellent cast.
Movie trailers are arguably the most important marketing tool for films before they are released. Viewers create a first impression of the film according to its trailer, and trailers tend to persuade moviegoers to either watch the film or not watch the film. It is also a ground for the film to advertise the actors and directors that worked on the project. A-list actors and directors have loyal followings, and these fans will surely enjoy seeing their stars on screen. Emotion also plays a significant role in persuasion during the viewing of a trailer. Suspense, action, horror, and comedy all fuel different emotions that create favorability or dislike amongst viewers. While there are many reasons to watch a certain film, I will examine the rhetorical forces behind our innate connection to certain types of movies, in addition to providing personal reasons behind my choice of The Revenant. Through examination of my personal opinions, I will use The Revenant as a tool to discuss the rhetorical arguments provided by Alejandro Innaritu, and further analyze the role of movie trailers in persuasion.

Although cinema is now a priority, some feel as if cinema is no longer the cinema when it was first established. Movies no longer have that special feeling like viewers once had. Today, films are not only shared within a theater, if one pleases they could always have the same experience elsewhere. Moreover, with technology expanding, it takes away the importance cinema once had. “The
Although Snow White isn’t anything remarkable with today’s computer-generated graphics, the hand-drawn film was groundbreaking at the time. The high profit from Snow White inspired Disney to relocate and expand his studio in order to facilitate all of his animation needs (Wingert). This upcoming state-of-the-art studio would open up several new opportunities for the Disney Company.
In a world where technology is rapidly developing and evolving, it is sometimes hard to keep up with the changes that are made. When looking back on changes that are made it is particularly interesting to look at the development of animation over history. Today when one thinks about animation it is impossible not to think of Disney and their major motion pictures. The Shreck films, Finding Nemo, and Happy Feet, to name just some of the dozens of animated films Disney has produced, raked in million upon millions of dollars at the box office, and have been hit films with people in all age groups.
In the 1937 film Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs, the tale revolutionized and began a Golden Age of animation.
