Essay Idea: Hayao Miyazaki
As of yet, my initial idea involves exploring Japanese animation through Hayao Miyazaki in his philosophy and techniques that contrasts the Disneyan principles of animation. I will most likely take a specific example of his films to analyse more thoroughly.

Interim Online Review 23/03/10
Hi Leo,
Okay - regarding your story idea, I think it could work well - but I have come caveats; 1) be sure that the snowman's story doesn't eclipse the performance of the fridge, and 2) you need to rethink your denouement; audience sympathies will inevitably be with the snowman and not the cantankerous fridge, so perhaps it should be it, and not the snowman that suffers some kind of retribution of consequences. Also, in terms of your minute structure, you have a lot to accomplish in that first act - establishing the snowman, establishing his plight, establishing the house, establishing the refrigerator... Act 2 is obviously the battle of wits between the fridge and the snowman... the one minute structure is there for 2 reasons - to promote clarity and concision, and also to ensure the task is manageable in the time permitted; if you move beyond this time limit - and you might - ensure you have good reason... tread carefully!
See following post for some specific guidance re. the proper relationship between your introduction and the main body of your discussion...
Right will be sure to keep those story concerns in mind, some tuning seems to be in order. Thanks for the feedback Phil.
