Postmodernism Essay

Postmodernism: is a late 20th-century styled and concept in the arts, architecture, and criticism, which represents a departure from modernism and is characterized by the self-conscious use of earlier styles and conventions, a mixing of different artistic styles and media and a general distrust of theories.

Postmodernism allows media to create something new by mixing old things together and being creative about it.
It allows media to recreate a new memory with a modern idea. for exmaple:
'Slumdog Millionaire' made in 2008 by Danny Boyle is a mixture of romance, game show, bollywood and  drama. The mixture of different genres allows the film to be classified as a postmodern text as it crosses the boundary of films only being labelled as one genre. As  Danny Boyle said 'why? why limit a film to one set of emotions when it has the potential to explore so much more? The idea of a postmodern text is to challenge the fact that movie are only section to one type of genre instead of experimenting and creating something completely new for the audience to be exposed to. Another example of a postmodern text is 'Warm Bodies'. It is a mixture of romance, zombie and comedy also making it a postmodern text. postmodern texts allows media to be able to create something completely new and original in the films context. It allows the film makers to challenge the conventions of the type of the genres they are working with make something new in order to be creative and original to entertain their target audiences and maybe their niche audiences as well. 'Sweeney Todd' is also a postmodern text made in 2007 by Tim Burton as it a mixture of drama, horror, musical and thriller.
