Stay Woke, Langston A. Williams
Stay Woke, Langston A. Williams
University of New Orleans Theses and Dissertations
Throughout the pages of my thesis, I comprehensively analyze the processes, intentions, and production of my thesis film Stay Woke.

Individual aspects of this process including writing, casting, locations, production design, cinematography, directing, budgeting, scheduling, and postproduction workflows will be detailed. As I make elaborations in each section, I will explain my learning experiences from each day’s new tasks, challenges, and lessons.

Design Plan For The Sawmill Town History Wing At The Texas Forestry Museum, Kendall D. Gay
Design Plan For The Sawmill Town History Wing At The Texas Forestry Museum, Kendall D. Gay
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
The Texas Forestry Museum in Lufkin, Texas is the only forestry museum in the state. It preserves artifacts and educates visitors about Texas’ forest industry history. The museum has a Sawmill Town History Wing that is outdated and in need of a refreshing exhibit design based on current best practices. Using a previous museum audit as a guide, the new exhibit will have better flow, panel aesthetics, content, and interactive elements. By creating a new exhibit, the museum is better able to educate and entertain the visitors about Texas’ forest industry history.
Creatures Of Play, Melissa Shelton
Creatures Of Play, Melissa Shelton
Graduate School of Art Theses
This thesis explores my practice as an artist and my work’s cultural, theoretical and social contexts, such carnival theory, feminist studies and film studies, as well as references to mythology and my own biography.

Embracing a certain incompleteness and embodying the theoretical …

Man/Boy., Nick Hartman
Electronic Theses and Dissertations
Verisimilitude, or the appearance of being true, is a concept I turn upside down; relating it to a guise I wear as a contemporary male in a society dictated by learned social behavior and gender norms. Cultural iconography and expected gender norms are tropes I confront within my artwork. Drawings of seemingly everyday objects act as meditations or a fetishized repetition of supposed unobtainable objects and ideals that deal with masculine societal norms. Manliness, machismo, masculinity… it is all a culturally learned and expected pose placed on all men. Coming to the realization that I do not necessarily fit …
The Short Story And The Photographic: Twentieth-Century Imagetexts In And Of The Americas, Lucienne Muller
The Short Story And The Photographic: Twentieth-Century Imagetexts In And Of The Americas, Lucienne Muller
Dissertations, Theses, and Capstone Projects
This dissertation examines the visuality of the short story from an intermedial point of view, that is, with a focus on the relationship between the short story and the photographic visual. This analysis draws from photographic theory and from the writings of photographer and writer Julio Cortazar whose philosophy puts forward the idea of a reader who becomes the inventive co-creator of the fictional work.
