The third edition of Bill Nichols's best-selling text provides an up-to-date introduction to the most important issues in documentary history and criticism. A new chapter, "I Want to Make a Documentary: Where Do I Start?" guides readers through the steps of planning and preproduction and includes an example of a project proposal for a film that went on to win awards at major festivals. Designed for students in any field that makes use of visual evidence and persuasive strategies, Introduction to Documentary identifies the genre's distinguishing qualities and teaches the viewer how to read documentary film. Each chapter takes up a discrete question, from "How did documentary filmmaking get started?" to "Why are ethical issues central to documentary filmmaking?" Here Nichols has fully rewritten each chapter for greater clarity and ease of use, including revised discussions of earlier films and new commentary on dozens of recent films from The Cove to The Act of Killing and from Gasland to Restrepo.
Автор: Jean-Luc Godard Название: Introduction to a True History of Cinema and Television ISBN: 0981191428 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780981191423 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 106260.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание:
In 1978, Jean-Luc Godard improvised a series of fourteen talks for a projected history of cinema on video. These talks, published in French in 1980 and long out of print, have never before been translated into English. This edition, based on the sole videotape copies of the lectures, corrects the faulty and incomplete French version and is the only complete edition in any language. The volume is accompanied by an essay by Michael Witt thoroughly documenting Godard's various film history projects and by 56 full-page film stills manipulated by Godard and 24 illustrations in his own hand. For this project, Godard screened his own famous films of the 1960s alongside single reels of some of the films which most influenced his work. Working at the dawn of video, a technology essential to his completion of the project many years later, as the visual essay Histoire(s) du cinйma, Godard used pieces of 35mm film, projected in an auditorium, to approximate the historical montage he was groping towards. He then held forth, in an experience he describes as a form of 'public self-psychoanalysis', on his personal and professional relationships, working methods, aesthetic preferences, political beliefs and, on the cusp of 50, his philosophy of life. The result is the most extensive and revealing account ever of his work and critical opinions. Never has Godard been as loquacious, lucid and disarmingly frank as he is here. This volume is one of the great classics of film literature, by perhaps the wittiest and most idiosyncratic genius the cinema has known.

Автор: Harriet E. Margolis Название: The Cinema Ideal: An Introduction to Psychoanalytic Studies of the Film Spectator ISBN: 0415726735 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780415726733 Издательство: Taylor&Francis Рейтинг: Цена: 153120.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: This study explores the model derived from Freudian and Lacanian psychoanalysis, via Marxism and semiotics, of looking at film. It retraces the steps of film theory from ideological criticism of the late ‘60s to spectator studies in 1988 when the book was originally published. Psychoanalysis enables a discussion of the cinema’s role as a social and political force and this book enters a discourse of the politics of representation. Reconstructing discussion of basic issues, the book addresses our instincts and defences in reacting to cinema, the similarity between mental processes and cinematic technique, narrative techniques and the ‘cinematic apparatus’. Importantly, the book concerns itself with the concept of ideology and how the filmviewing experience engages the spectator in a complex net of stimuli presenting representations of an ideal world and the effect of this within film studies.

What makes a good movie? How can one analyse a film accordingly without primarily interpreting it? Dramaturgy can enrich film understanding, for those who make films, as well as for those who want to understand better why they are made how. Film Dramaturgy supports the creative process of filmmaking, especially the work of the authors, directors and producers. Students and professionals who are involved in the creation of a film also benefit from this knowledge. The understanding of dramaturgy supports film analysis and film criticism too. In some regions of the world, dramaturgy is well established; in other parts, it is less familiar.
This book provides a basic introduction to modern film dramaturgy. It emerges from academic research drawn from professional practice. It addresses students, scholars, colleagues, filmmakers and all professionals involved in making films, videos, audio-visual time-based media productions.

Описание: British Cinema: A Very Short Introduction explores the history of cinema in Britain, and considers what has made its films and techniques distinctive, especially in the context of British relations with America. Ranging across the 20th century, Barr`s account looks at key British films and filmmakers within this context.
The globalization and digitalization of cultural markets presents formidable challenges for local cinema and storytelling. The essays in this collection address some of these challenges from the perspective of a critical political economy of local cinema. Inspiring these contributions is the effort of supporting local cinema as a form of valuable storytelling that is at risk of market-driven extinction because of the greater commercial viability of global or Hollywood cinema and national cinema.
Автор: Katy Shaw Название: Hauntology: A Critical Introduction ISBN: 1780934041 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781780934044 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 63360.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: Coined by Derrida for his 1991 book Spectres of Marx (1991), hauntology is the ontology of the spectral, the science of what returns. For Derrida, the twentieth century was the most haunted in history - the century in which we knew more about the past than at any other point in history, and in which we lived with the past on a daily basis , through our use and understandings of history and more tangibly through celluloid and audio recordings. In the last five years hauntology has moved beyond the parameters of political philosophy and has become increasingly influential in literary and cultural studies. This book examines hauntology not just as ontology, but a critical practice. It looks at how hauntology can collapse the innate paradox of being and non-being, providing a way of understanding the spectral nature of the past and its haunting of the present. Opening with an overview of Derrida's work and later critical debates on hauntology, Katy Shaw goes on to apply hauntology as a critical approach to contemporary literature and culture, illustrating her arguments with close readings of apposite texts, and including literature, film, music and architecture in her analysis. This is the first book explicity written for course use providing a critical introduction to hauntology as critical practice.
