Media Analysis Assignment
ByAmyMcNolty

The main purpose of the Rip A Remix Manifest film was to make people awareness  of the big corporations and how the laws that they provide are preventing us from building creativity on the past. There are many things within this film that suggests bias behavior in many ways. Such as the author explaining that the major corporations are collecting the profit of those that have built on the past and have been caught and sued for it, or how a day care was sued for having Mickey Mouse characters on the walls of the building. Because of the bias views  in the film  the proof of the major corporations,are false and are made out to look like the bad guys that are only trying to stop you.  

The bias of the author is seen when the one man had taken the character Mickey Mouse from Disney, and made him into a character that was against the corporation. He was able to transform a beloved character into the one thing that the corporation was against. He did this not to only make his point on how the corporation didn't have him under the control, but also how he could rebel using the very weapons that the were trying to protect to fight.

Girl Talk has now become more and more known because of his ability to create new songs and beats out of the old loved classics. He is building on the past to make the future. He is doing the same thing that Walt Disney did to create his characters, that is we as people need to build on the past! many people ask rhetorical questions like "Why don't you legalize the music so everyone can listen to it?" says fans. But to make what they do legal, they would need to pay thousands and thousands of dollars, and go totally broke for a single song. Which, I admit needs to change. It shouldn't be so hard to create something that others love so much and be able to have access to it. When girl talk was the main subject in the film, the mood varied from happiness and fun when they were showing the parties and the music, to angry and rebellious, when Girl Talk was being threatened to be sued for living the dream of theirs and others.

All the major corporations are not out to get you, like the film suggests. They don't make hundreds of laws just so they can collect the money that you pay for braking them. Ya, ok, its too hard to just create in this world, some things need to change, but things aren't going to get easier and less chaotic by letting people get what they want. So even though the film was trying to convince us that we as the public, as people, need to be heard more, to have more freedom. I don't think so. By changing the things that we know are problems, doesn't necessarily make it easier, yet more complicated.
