Paper #1 Proposal
I'm thinking of comparing the visual aspects of Junebug and Television. Junebug uses visual clues to explain and get a message and a meaning across. Showing the bedrooms and the reactions in the hospital were just two times that no dialogue was used but the director was trying to get across information. It was then up to reader to take what they know from their own lives to interpret Visual clues are a great way to get details and meaning across and can say more than words can. After Hurricane Katrina, photography was a large part of the story telling. Only so much of what had happened could be told by a reporter, pictures were the best way for viewers to understand and interpret the information. It made a bigger impact on the viewers to interpret the information in there own way.

I think this will work but you need to get a much narrower focus. Since this is a textual depiction, perhaps you would want to focus on other textual depictions--and if you want to compare it to Katrina, there was a great controversy about the label of "looting" (which was applied to some people but not others.} Find something concrete to make a comparison to and this should work well.
