Minstrel Shows

The Minstrel Shows I found quite interesting. I am not one who find this kind of music, dance, acting, etc. quite entertaining but recently its sparked my interest as I learn about how all of this influences modern industry. The minstrel shows were found racist as white people would paint their faces black to be like african americans. The writers of the shows said that the dances were authentically black and once the white actors moved onto Vaudeville, the African-Americans filled in the shows.

My name is Bobby Benditt, I am a Sports Management Major and would like to focus on the marketing of sport industry. I thought this class (art and technology) would really help with my major allowing me to expand on some marketing techniques, and really understand how art comes into play with marketing.

Inspiration came from the thought of having no freedom, all rights stripped and being in jail, serving a life sentence for something, could not imagine not being outside with freedom and being locked up in a cell.

last second fear, seconds before a blow to the face a mix of emotions would run through my mind.

The face of harvey in the batman movie "The Dark Knight" shows two different personalities of this, you can see the flesh and two different expressions are being depicted.

Heath Ledger in the dark Knight has one of the scariest faces, its a face that is different because its hard to tell which emotion is being conveyed but the audience always know it isnt good, the jokers face is suspicious "up to no good" type of face.
