This week we studied how to develop an investigation for the thesis topic.
Personal Research on the Research Topic
For the research, apart from reading articles and books I have to watch all the films of Pixar in past ten years and derive a personal analysis. I have watched all the films shown below.
Main Points
The films helped me to analyse the new themes Pixar is including in its new films. The inclusion of diverse themes and topics are becoming more and more common in the new films. Some of the important things that Pixar has promoted over the period of time are:
- Sexual Inclusivity
- Gender Inclusivity
- Racial Inclusivity
- Cultural Inclusivity
- Diversity
- Themes of Belonging and Individualism
- Intergenerational Trauma
