Remix Proposal

For this Remix project, I plan on using my research paper on Crazy Rich Asians and creating a slides presentation. I plan on taking multiple clips,  segments, and screenshots of the film and go in depth with whether that particular moment or scene belongs in the film or not in terms of accurate authenticity. Not too sure exactly how I will structure it and organize it in my slides but I definitely want to include this aspect to show the changes that can be made to the film and the part of the film that does deserve to be noticed. I think the biggest difference in this remix project compared to my research paper is that there are visuals from the film to give a more engaging effect. A lot of the facial expressions and the visuals in the film make it more complex and adds density to the film. I want to keep my audience the same, just everyday people and giving them a perspective on the film that it is good but not good enough in terms of progression. In my paper, I ended up focusing largely on the idea of capitalism and the economics of people from different cultures and how that is taking effect in our society today in relation to the film. In this presentation, I do want to shine light on asian culture and the culture differences in America and in China, between a native Asian and an Asian American. The culture difference and the idea of dual identity in America is something I decided to table when creating my research paper, but to me was equally as important. This remix project gives me the opputunity to showcase this extensive part of my research paper and potentially add more meaning and value to my research paper as well. Since this remix was something I was passionate about even when drafting my research paper, I think it will come quite naturally and the ideas are fresh in my head. I think the bigger challenge is to present it in a presentation and being able to explain it well during my presentation. I am motivated to tackle this project and want to leave my audience wanting to go back and read my research paper to hear more.
