We explore how thru marketing and mass media pandas have become more than animals, they ’ ve become symbols, icons and tools. We also see how the image of the panda correlates to our own human desires, how pandas remind us of ourselves and because of that we love them and care for them. We also how their endangerment plays a role in this, how their small numbers force us to make up images and ideas about them that are not necessarily true. 通过图像、声音、叙述和诗歌的拼贴,我们试图调 和熊猫在现代文化中的形象和熊猫的真实面目。探索通 过市场营销和大众媒体的宣传之下熊猫是如何由动物转 变为一种形象符号,图标和工具。讨论熊猫的形象如何 附表 II:“看中国·外国青年影像计划”作品信息表 Work Information List of “Looking China” Youth Film Project与我们人类的欲望联系在一起,人们在观照熊猫的同时 又是如何映射自身的。正因为如此,我们爱它们,关心 它们。当然,熊猫的濒危性也使我们更加爱他们并让我 们对它们产生脱离物种自身真实性的想法。
