Cast Away Report
Cast Away Report
In the movie Castaway, directed by Robert Zemeckis. The film focuses on the character Chuck Noland. Hard working, strict, a perfectionist and workaholic. He values organization, timing & the committed staff very highly and always wants to have better improvements for the consumers for example the orders arriving earlier than the approximate or given timeframe and supporting his team through encouragement & praise. However, usually he has trouble balancing his values with his family & friends especially with his girlfriend Kelly. He does try really hard to prove to his social group that he values them almost just as much as his work by going to social gatherings like Christmas dinners except sometimes he’ll end up being called out to work to help his team. During these events, whilst involved in civilization he uses many human & non-human resources like his partner Kelly (helps him feel a sense of comfort & belonging, loyal staff), Timing (aid organization & work progress), good income (better access availability of resources), and Pagers (helps communication with work).
Chuck is required to manage many changes after the plane crash. These changes are physical, psychological & emotional, social and cultural. The director decided to focus on the physiological stages of events in a survival situation, specifically removing Chuck Noland from his routinely lifestyle and placing him on a deserted island with limited resources & rapidly changing climate or geographical terms. The director also embeds the psychological terms of Maslow’s Hierarchy of Needs.
This changes the goals to: getting off the island, Staying alive & healthy, Keeping preoccupied, having a suitable Food & water supply, safety & comfort, delivering the package, managing his psychological, mental, emotional and social needs; and Deciding the right thing to do during a values conflict.
To achieve these goals he uses Wilson ball
