What was the effect on the residence
The Cold War had many effects on society, both today and in the past. Primarily, communism was defeated. In Russia, military spending was cut dramatically and quickly.

The separation of Berlin began in 1945 after the collapse of Germany. The country was divided into four zones, where each superpower controlled a zone. In 1946, reparation agreements broke down between the Soviet and Western zones. Response of the West was to merge French, British, and American zones in 1947.
Difference between east and west Germany
Separation of Berlin. ... On June 23, 1948, the westernpowers introduced a new form of currency into the western zones, which caused the Soviet Union to impose the Berlin Blockade one day later. After Germany was divided into two parts, East Germanybuilt the Berlin Wall to prevent its citizens from fleeing to the west.

Jungle book 2016 questions
1. They used many forms of media in order to promote the film, one was social media such as snapchat in order to get filters and get you invested in the film so when it comes out you go and see it. Next they posted billboards everywhere of the movie which means that everywhere you turn you would see it and then want to go and see it. This also works with when you’re friends go and watch it and then they tell you about it and then you want to go and see it.
2. Because of how much social media and other forms of digital media are used these days means that everyone is consuming tons of media every day and this means that it will now be the most important form of marketing because it has the ability to become the biggest influencers of publicity
3. A new aspect of filming now is 3D this means that people who are into the jungle book and 3D can have the best of both worlds. Also the technology now means that they are able to do amazing things with it. Next we have vertical integration is where Disney owns most of the company’s that they use in order to make the film, this cuts down on time and money when making the film. The original film was completely made by Disney.
4. The original film was targeted towards girls, they have now changed this by using special effects and cgi in order to appeal to boys and men because stereotypically this is what boys like. They also re made the film because they wanted to appeal to the people that watched it the first time and then the people who watched the first remake and finally the children who have never watched it and grew up with the original
5.The Difference Between Copyright and Trademark. While both offer intellectual property protection, they protect different types of assets. Copyright is geared toward literary and artistic works, such as books and videos. A trademark protects items that help define a company brand, such as its logo.
6. He wanted it to be more unique and dark but at the same time he wanted the keep the beauty of the original
7. This meant that it was a lot more realistic and they could use the massive vault of Disney archives that they have built up over the years in order to make the film production smoother and more efficient. Is also meant that they would only have one human character and all of the other ones would be animated this means that they had to make them walk like they are actual their and figure out how the animals would interact with the environment that they were put in. This could have been from lying down to running though the forest
8. Like I have said in the previous section they build up the animals in sections. This means that first they get their bone structure and then put the skin on and then finally they put the fur or what ever they are covered in to make them act real
9. To play homarge to the 1967 JB they used cell animation at the start of the film to give that old fashioned feeling and make the people who watch the original get that nostalgia feeling

copy right
Copyright legally protects an author's works and as a result, it is vitally important in book publishing. According to the U.S. government, "Copyright is a form of protection grounded in the U.S. Constitution and granted by law for original works of authorship fixed in a tangible medium of expression.
Copyright, a form of intellectual property law, protects original works of authorship including literary, dramatic, musical, and artistic works, such as poetry, novels, movies, songs, computer software, and architecture.
All works published in the United States before 1923 are in the public domain. Works published after 1922, but before 1978 are protected for 95 years from the date of publication. If the work was created, but not published, before 1978, the copyright lasts for the life of the author plus 70 years.
Explain why Walt Disney Company would have been lobbying for 'The Mickey Mouse'
This is when you try and persuade the government into copy writing something, in walts case this was him trying to save his characters from being stolen.
1967
the budget of the film was $4m. this was for the whole of the production and how much money they had to spend o the film as a whole
the box office numbers that they bought in was about $141m
and the entire money that it made was around $378m
it used cutting edge technology for its time even though it is nothing special now the animation shocked the world
The Jungle Book was released in 1976 by Walt Disney Productions and was made by traditional cel animation in Walt Disney Studios to keep the costs at a minimum. The use of multiplane was developed to create a 3D effect. Disney's personal control affected all stages of production and distribution. Bil Peet helped to storyboard the plot
The Jungle Book is the final film Walt Disney helped make and was more personally involved in the production of the film.
Processes of a film:
-conception (the idea of the film)
-pre-production (storyboarding, casting, scriptwriting, funding)
-production (filming)
-post-production (editing, sound design)
-released (theatricle, straight to DVD, online, marketing)
they have a large vault of ideas which means that they have loads of fresh ideas and they don't have to start from scratch. it also means that they can save time when it comes to editing and making the animations because they can use landscapes that have already been created and cut from other films
DVD sales have been decreasing over the years
