I already have a proposal for this paper; it does not have a clear main idea. and i want writer to edit after reading the proposal that professor’s comments.
The one I uploaded the other one have references, and I want the writer to rewrite.
This assignment has two parts: an abstract and an initial bibliogrpahy
Write an approximately 200-word abstract (initial proposal/summary) discussing your initial idea for a photography exhibition or research project on photography. You could investigate a particular photographer, a particular theme, images depicting the same location/ type of event from different historical moments, or some other pressing issue or element of photography. Alternately, you might think about curating an imaginary exhibition. Projects considering archival materials–especially those at UMB are encouraged.
It is OK–even expected–for your project to change.
The abstract/proposal should include the elements below:
1) The research topic you plan to investigate (mention some works you will discuss)
2) an initial thesis that you hope to prove in the paper/ project/ with the exhibition
3) some initial thoughts or findings on the topic
4) a brief summary of possible questions you will address in the final paper/ project/ exhibition
5) a title (that is specific, not generic)
6) how your topic relates to prior scholarship/ exhibitions on the topic you have found or broader trends in scholarship
Include three possible sources for your bibliography as well (cite Chicago style; see https://owl.english.purdue.edu/owl/resource/717/01/). These should be journal articles, long-form journalism articles, art criticism, interviews with artists, ebooks, books, or museum content. Make sure you can access the resources.

Discussion about 3 keywords we discussed in class from weeks 7, 9 or 10. Please identify these works at the top of your text. You may label them 1, 2, 3, and then refer to them that way in the essay to save time.
-Substantive reference to and discussion of readings (essays by Pericolo, Nethersole, Bernstein), with specific reference to ideas from those texts that support or further illustrate your points.
Prompt: A connecting theme between the last three lecture weeks has been the study, reinterpretation, and integration of classical artwork and classical style in modern (i.e. Renaissance) works of art. What are some of the ways in which Renaissance artists reused the antique in their work? Did they copy ancient works, or did they synthesize them in their own? What purposes could antique style or classical subject matter serve for artists and for their patrons?
You can choose sculptures, paintings, or architecture to illustrate your points.

Length: 3 pages, typewritten, double-spaced (please number the pages and do not forget to put
your name on the first page)
An essay on the visual depiction of the deity
In this class we have considered the various ways in which the deity was depicted visually:
serene or suffering, young or old, by means of metaphor or as a likeness (portrait). What I would
like you to do in this paper is to write about this issue from any point of view that you want and
with any examples you would like to speak about. The overarching question is the following:
why was it important to the religion to render God, believed to be infinite and uncircumscribable,
in material form? We have talked about this issue from the point of view of catacomb paintings
(think of the Good Shepherd or the vignette of the loaves and fishes), various icons (portraits of
Christ), the mosaics in the apses of churches: what were the visual forms in which God was
depicted and why do you think they were chosen? Where were the images placed in an overall
decorative scheme and what does their placement say about their meaning and function? You
can select any number of examples that you want: you can concentrate on one or discuss several.
You may want to consider some of the following questions. These are suggestions for you to
stimulate your thinking. It is not required that you answer any of them, but of course you can if
you want to:
1. God is un-circumscribable and so isn’t a material rendering of God a contradiction in
terms?
2. What is a portrait?
3. What role or roles do God’s words play in religious art?
4. What about the pagan practices of classical (pre-Christian) antiquity with regard to
visualizing the gods: were any of these influential?

BYO presentation in class + short written submissions This in-class presentation is paired with a written submission (550 words with images/captions) based on your BYO presentation. This is a 3-4 minutes presentation based on one artwork of your choice (different from those discussed in class) which responds to the weekly topic and reading. You are asked to do some research on your chosen artwork/artist/context and present it to the class using visuals (PPT) with these main questions in mind:
What did you choose and why
How does it connect with the weekly topic and reading?
Can you propose an analysis and interpretation of your chosen work in relation to the weekly topic? Which themes and connections does your chosen artwork inspire?
the course name: Women, Art, and Society
This week’s topic: Eating disorders and art
I will post this week’s reading so you can relate to them.
I will also post the chosen art work.
So I need a powerpoint with what to say on each slide.
I also need a 550 word summary of my presentation in word document.

Discipline: art history

After your presentations, write up what you have learned and thought about. These reports can also include any information, points, or issues that came up during the on-site discussion.
Be sure to spell and grammar check your work carefully.
Cite any specific or hypothetical knowledge that is not clearly well-known or general knowledge. Citations should come from authoritative sources: the museum website; our textbook; academic art history publications such as books and journals
Length: 400-600 words.

In “300-500” words, produce a critical response to the reading. Write a summary and critique one-pager integrating your thoughts on the Kimmerer and Haraway readings. Consider these two approaches toward a radical post-Anthropocene approach to living in the world, and discuss how these two bring in alternative perspectives on being within the natural world which contrasts with the systems seen in the other readings on Returns/Cradle-to-Grave rampant capitalism, and even also nuancing and taking a different approach than that argued for in terms of the “Upcycle”… Stay centrally focused on moments from within the texts themselves (knowing that Haraway, in particular, is a bit challenging), and conduct a close reading as you craft your critique.

Watch the short film “Big Boom” at:
https://youtu.be/Od49AfIS2-ULinks to an external site.
Create a Film Sound Log based on the short film linked above as follows:
Give a brief synopsis of the film’s theme and storyline (200-350 words)
Create a spreadsheet or table of all the sounds you hear in each scene (3-5 pages). List all of the sound elements in chronological order, describe them, list what type they are (Dialogue, Sound Effects & Foley, or Music) and then indicate if a sound is diegetic or non-diegetic. (Best if the spreadsheet/table is embedded but it can be submitted as a separate document with no deductions. Make sure to number each entry.)
Note it can be incredibly hard to tell if a sound is done as foley or sound effect. Foley is performed by a sound designer specifically for the film you are watching – for instance wearing high heel shoes and using a microphone to mimic the steps as they happen on screen. If it is a sound effect, a sound library would be used instead and a sound file of the appropriate type of steps would be aligned in a sound editing program. You can either label these sounds as Sound Effect/Foley or take your best guess – you will not be graded on the difference.
Sounds that repeat can either be indicated each time they occur – or listed as repeating sounds – depending on what makes more sense to you. For dialogue you do not need to indicate what is being said – just who has said it. See the sample table below (note this is not for this film).
For a quick lesson on diegetic vs non-diegetic check out: https://www.masterclass.com/articles/diegetic-sound-and-non-diegetic-sound-whats-the-difference#what-is-diegetic-soundLinks to an external site.
How are elements of the sound track layered to create a sense of foreground/background, action/atmosphere, emotional content. Discuss how the sound design is used to engage the viewer in the character’s emotional journey and to structure the plot development. (300 – 450 words)
Total: Approximately 5-7 pages – it is okay if it goes over this limit. You can also go over the suggested word lengths for parts 1&3.
Sample table/spreadsheet not related to the film you have been asked to watch and do your assignment on: (Please note Canvas makes this very spread out – check the rubric to decide how many sound events to have).

Marking:
A successful project will provide lots of detail and evoke the specific sounds you hear. For instance writing “a large dog barking playfully 3 times with a syncopated rhythm – its tags jingling” is much better than “dog bark”. It will be detailed, thoughtful and carefully written. Presentation, spelling, grammar, will inform the final mark. To receive full marks you must spend the time to document the sounds accurately, clearly and with precise language as well as provide insightful discussion of how the sounds are used.
