King Kong Review


Comments

  1. Hi Katerin,

    Interesting review; you have almost got the introduction spot on there, so that is good! You need to also refer to which sources you will be using in the review - see Phil's example, here -

    'This review examines Merian C. Cooper and Ernest B.
    Schoedsack’s King Kong (1933), looking specifically at the
    the film’s representation of race. Key sources are Edward
    Said’s Orientialism (1978), which explores Western
    European views of ’the East’, and Robert JC Young’s,
    Postcolonialism: A Very Short Introduction (2003) for its
    definition of imperialism. The review will argue how it’s
    possible to interpret Cooper and Schoedsack’s King
    Kong as a colonial fantasy and will compare the 1933
    original with Peter Jackson’s 2005 remake to explore
    how race and its representation has changed.' (Apologies for the lack of italics for the film names - I can't do that in the comments!)

    Don't forget to reference the quote directly afterwards, with the author's surname and the date, so

    'blah blah blah' (Smith, 2018) for example.

    Be wary of using unnamed sources - although some of them will be reputable, there will be more that aren't, so always try to go for a publication with a named author.

    Just couple of English language pointers - be aware of the difference between 'where' and 'were' and 'been' and 'being', and make sure that you are using the correct word.

Premise: Animatic Test

   This is a test animatic I created from the panels in my storyboard in order to show me how my story will look. From this animatic, I have learned that there are areas in my storyboard that need improving and I need to add extra scenes in order to make the story more cohesive. overall this has been a learning experience for me in understanding how to go about creating an animatic and I hope with the next one there is an improvement.
