FI1218 Approaches to Cinema 1 – Film Language and Form Holly Rihan Examine the use of sound and it’s effectiveness Within the film Jurassic Park In this essay, I’ll be exploring the use of sound and it’s effectiveness within the film Jurassic Park (Steven Spielberg, 1993, USA). I’ll be looking at the techniques used to create the sound effects and analysing the effect they have on the film and viewer.

Walt Disney Company and Pixar Inc. Executive Summary: Walt Disney Company owed most of its recent success and income through its alliance with Pixar Inc. As the CG technology was changing the animation industry and supplanting the hand-drawn animation, it was apparent that Walt Disney has to get its strategy on track if it wants to remain successful.

Walt Disney was an artist, animator, cartoonist and dreamer. From an early age Walt drew and painted pictures which he then went out and sold to his neighbors (Walt Disney Biography, 2013).

It is a testament to the strength of his talents and dreams that it has prospered over his creations of Steamboat Willie and Silly Symphonies, after his distributor Margaret Winkler and her husband, Charles Mintz, had stolen the rights to Oswald, along with all of Disney’s animators, except for Ub Eert Iwerks (Walt Disney Biography, 2013).
