Jungle book- 1967 VS 2016 Production

-
What are the differences in the timeline of production for Jungle Book 1967 and Jungle Book 2016? 2016: created on computers (CGI); focused more on Mowgli's background Animation version appears dated, in large part because it appears to use the Xeroxing Method, but that doesn't detract from the great story Disney had created. 1967: was 78 mins long- production costs and cinema running availability- not everyone has a TV (DVD)    2.

Newspaper representations

Analyse the representations constructed in sources A and B: In source A, The telegraph constructs a mixed representation, that is mostly sympathetic and uses positive steriotypes, however portrays a negative stereotype about the royal familys emotions about the situation. It does this through the use of headlines, and use of words in its copy. For example, the headline: "Harry and Meghan quit the firm" is professional and has the general conevntions of a tabloid newspaper where it talks about the event, not having a stereotype, and in the copy it decribes the familys emotions that they are dissappointed and sad at the departure, however their plans reveal that they will still remain with their royal titles as working individuals. This evokes its target audince, who are ABC1 skilled professionals, to respond positively and think deeply about the article and positions the audience to feel sympathetic for the pair. Van Zoonen might argue that men and women ar...
