MUSC120 University of Maryland – University College Indian Films Discussion

Description

Question:In Indian films, it is generally assumed that playback singers, rather than the on-screen actors and actresses themselves, are the singers of songs in films. In Western films, contrastingly, there is often a stigma attached to actors and actresses who are “exposed” for not having sung their own songs in their films. Speculate on what might account for this fundamental difference in cultural attitudes and values. Reflect on the question by writing a 2-3 paragraph response.2) Include the link to an educational website other than Wikipedia that helped you to form your response, with a 2-3 sentence description of how this website enhanced your learning for the week. Visit the UMUC Library “Is My Source Credible?” page and the Research Guide for Music (including links to Open Access Music Journals) to help you choose a reliable, credible educational website.3) Select and add an image to your post that reflects your learning, including the specific reasons you chose the image.
