Quotations: -- Calvista general manager Hui Newnham says it produces 10,000 DVDs a week for distribution in Australia. That's sine half a million X-rated movies a year, from just one company.; -- Groups such as Calvista estimate the bulk of the adult retail market in Australia (books, toys and films) to be worth $1.6 billion to $1.7 billion a year. But Newnham says legally compliant operators such as Calvista and Gallery make up only about 40 per cent of the wholesale market. The rest at best operate in a grey zone, or at worst, just flog pirated material that would be unlikely to pass muster with the Office of FIlm and Literature Classification.

Summary: Asia’s film industries have undergone significant transformation in the last 30 years. From bilateral co-production agreements to pan-Asian financing, Asian cinema has assumed a regional identity well beyond its constituent national cinemas. This book explores the collaborative models of film production, distribution, exhibition and reception that have enabled greater co-operation and integration between Asia’s film industries. In doing so, it contributes to the burgeoning international fields of transnational and world cinema, providing a fresh perspective on Asian cinema through the lens of comparative film studies. -- publisher's web site

Paul Swann's study is a political and social history of this movement, which was characterized by actuality-based films made outside the commercial industry. Based upon new examinations of official government records, this book provides a fascinating picture of how Grierson manipulated the civil services bureaucracy both for his own ends and, in his view, for the good of his country." -- BOOK BLURB

Summary: Cinema and the Wealth of Nations explores how media, principally in the form of cinema, was used during the interwar years by elite institutions to establish and sustain forms of liberal political economy beneficial to their interests. It examines the media produced by institutions such as states, corporations, and investment banks, as well as the emergence of a corporate media industry and system supported by state policy and integral to the establishment of a new consumer system. Lee Grieveson shows how media was used to encode liberal political and economic power during the period that saw the United States eclipse Britain as the globally hegemonic nation and the related inauguration of new forms of liberal economic globalization. But this is not a distant history. Cinema and the Wealth of Nations examines a foundational conjuncture in the establishment of media forms and a media system instrumental in, and structural to, the emergence and expansion of a world system that has been—and continues to be—brutally violent, unequal, and destructive. -- publisher's web site

Summary: "Cinema Futures: Cain, Abel or Cable? presents a careful and forceful argument about predictions that tend to be made when new technologies appear. Examining the complex dynamics of convergence and divergence among the audio-visual media, the authors are realistic in their estimate of the future of the cinema's aesthetic identity, and robustly optimistic that the different social needs audiences bring to the public and domestic media will ensure their distinctiveness, as well as the necessary openness of cultural meaning and creative input" -- Blurb

Summary: Most histores of Australian cinema have foregrounded film production but have little to say about film distribution and exhibition, which were more powerful sectors of the cinema industry in Australia. This study examines the distribution and exhibition of films in Adelaide's central business district and suburban circuits during the introduction of sound in 1928-29. In addition to analysing the impact of the new technology, this article looks at the way that film distribution in this period changed in response to a number of other factors including the switch to direct distribution, the rise of British production and the local politics of first-run exhibition competition. The article examines the structure of the city and suburban exhibition in Adelaide and demonstrates that any analysis of the industry's response to sound technologies must take into account intensely local factors in order to explain the ways that different compaines adopted varying industrial tactics during the diffusion of this new technology. -- Abstract

Summary: Have digital technologies transformed cinema into a new art, or do they simply replicate and mimic analogue, film-based cinema? Newly revised and expanded to take the latest developments into account, Cinema in the Digital Age examines the fate of cinema in the wake of the digital revolution. Nicholas Rombes considers Festen (1998), The Blair Witch Project (1999), Timecode (2000), Russian Ark (2002), and The Ring (2002), among others. Haunted by their analogue pasts, these films are interested not in digital purity but rather in imperfection and mistakes-blurry or pixilated images, shaky camera work, and other elements that remind viewers of the human behind the camera.With a new introduction and new material, this updated edition takes a fresh look at the historical and contemporary state of digital cinema. It pays special attention to the ways in which nostalgia for the look and feel of analogue disrupts the aesthetics of the digital image, as well as how recent films such as The Social Network (2010) and The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo (2011)-both shot digitally-have disguised and erased their digital foundations. The book also explores new possibilities for writing about and theorizing film, such as randomization.

Notes: accessed from: Factiva. Dow Jones Reuters Business Interactive LLC. RMIT University Library. (14 May 2007).
Quotations: -- Biljana Stanojcic- Marketing Manager Columbia TriStar - Heaps of good quotes. Interesting one was on the DVD's in rental store. - "Stanojcic explains that by removing the high fees paid by the video stores for exclusibity, the stores have been more willing to stock DVDs. "Hannibal, for example, will cost the video retailer $50 to $60 per video. They pay this premium because it means the title won't be on sale for another six months and so they get exclusivity and can make their money back with hires. To stimulate the DVD market, we wholesale to the video store at around $27. They don't get exclusivity but they can sell copies.""

Wilson argues that current copyright legislation has failed to keep up with these technological innovations, thus impeding their uptake. She proposes several models of distribution online.

Summary: "The contemporary Hollywood film industry is characterized by continuity and change. While many well-established Hollywood studios continue to dominate the film business, the industry has also witnessed various changes during the past two decades. "'The Contemporary Hollywood Film Industry' is a collection of essays by leading scholars that examine the US film industry as an international phenomenon, from the 1980s to the present day. It explores a host of challenges and changes facing Hollywood, and includes important discussions of the industry's labor and star systems, as well as intellectual property and state relations. Essays consider the role of independent producers, the global marketplace for Hollywood products, corporate changes, and various new-media windows, including video, DVD to cable, satellite, and online channels of delivery."

Summary: ‘Nobody knows anything’, said William Goldman of studio filmmaking. The rule is ever more apt as we survey the radical changes that digital distribution, along with the digitisation of production and exhibition, is wreaking on global film circulation. Digital Disruption: Cinema Moves On-line helps to make sense of what has happened in the short but turbulent history of on-line distribution. It provides a realistic assessment of the genuine and not-so-promising methods that have been tried to address the disruptions that moving from ‘analogue dollars’ to ‘digital cents’ has provoked in the film industry. Paying close attention to how the Majors have dealt with the challenges – often unsuccessfully – it focuses as much attention on innovations and practices outside the mainstream. Throughout, it is alive to, and showcases, important entrepreneurial innovations such as Mubi, Jaman, Withoutabox and IMDb. Written by leading academic commentators that have followed the fortunes of world cinema closely and passionately, as well as experienced hands close to the fluctuating fortunes of the industry, Digital Disruption: Cinema Moves On-line is an indispensable guide to great changes in film and its audiences. -- publisher's web site

Summary: In Down and Dirty Pictures, Peter Biskind tells the story of the filmmakers and the independent distributors who revitalised Hollywood in the 1990s. He follows the growth of Sundance from a regional film festival to the premier showcase of independent film that it became, showing how it succeeded almost despite Robert Redford, whose visionary plans were often thwarted by his quixotic personality. He charts the meteoric rise of the controversial Harvey Weinstein, often described as the last mogul who, with his brother Bob, left a trail of carnage in his wake, yet created an Oscar factory that is the envy of the studios.

"We are still around the 50 per cent penetration of US households in DVDs -- it's still a very fast growing consumer product. ANd I think we're still somewhere in the high teens/low 20 per cent penetration of DVDs internationally, so we feel confident there's still a lot of growth left in the whole category."; -- Simon Bush, Chief Exec. Australian Visual Software Distributors Association - "It took the industry a bit by suprise because the home entertainment arms of the movie houses have traditionally been the poor cousins..."; -- Brendan Lyons - Media Analyst Goldman Sachs. "The sale of TV shows on DVD has also been a major plus for Fox Film. This is especially the case for older series (The Simpsons/X-Files), which would have little cost allocation against them."

Mg Dir Columbia triStar Home Ent Aust. - lists various reasons for DVD success - extras, technical superiority, and "The majority of titles are released for sale so quickly after the movie has finished its theatrical release."; -- "The marketing dollars pumped into theatrical releases are a great help to DVD sales, too, Garra says. While DVD sales are not at the expense of the cinema box office, cinema marketing is a great promotional tool.; -- "But research that Columbia TriStar conducts through the DVD Usergroup website (which is funded with 4 per cent of Columbia TriStar's marketing budget) draws an interesting portrait of the average DVD user. Most people who whave bought the 5700 titles now available did not see the movie during its cinema release. And few buy them as gifts. And in contrast to video rentals, which are often group decisions, the DVD purchase is a solo affair."

Notes: -- accessed from: Factiva. Dow Jones Reuters Business Interactive LLC. RMIT University Library. (14 May 2007).
Quotations: -- "Big chains such as Big W, Kmart and Target are driving prices on DVDs and CDs down to bare margins to lure customers. Full retail price for a new movie is usually more than $40, but the chains are marking them down to about $27, while the same titles sell in specialist retailers for $36 to $40."; -- ""Studios are making decisions now as to whether to fund movies, based on follow-through sales to DVD and video" Mr Bush said."; -- "Distributors also have shortened the time between cinema release and DVD release. Initially it was to beat piracy, but the extra incentive is to get the movie out while it's still fresh in the public's mind. A few years ago, the gap between cinema and DVD release was as much as 18 months. Now, it can be as brief as three months, depending on the studio and the type of movie."

Summary: "How do you sell English humour to a French audience? Could piracy actually be good for the film business? Why are the revolutionary technologies used in the making of The Hobbit not mentioned in some adverts? Exploring these questions and many more, Film Marketing into the Twenty-First Century draws on insights from renowned film scholars and leading industry professionals to chart the evolution of modern film marketing. The first part of the book focuses on geographical considerations, showing how marketers have to adapt their strategies locally as films travel across borders. The second covers new marketing possibilities offered by the Internet, as Vine, Facebook and other participative websites open new venues for big distributors and independents alike. Straddling practical and theoretical concerns and including case studies that take us from Nollywood to Peru, this book provides an accessible introduction to the key issues at stake for film marketing in a global era." -- BOOK BLURB

Summary: Speech on the parliamentary Bill responsible for the creation of Film Victoria. "The purpose of this Bill is to create a new statutory authority to be responsible for Government activities relating to the production and distribution of film in Victoria including film produced for educational purposes. The new organisation to be known as Film Victoria will be established by amalgamating the Victorian Film Corporation, the State Film Centre, and sections of the Audio-Visual Resources Branch of the Education Department. As a result, the unnecessary duplication of functions by the organisations will be avoided and the capacity of the Government to meet the present and future media needs of Victorians will be enhanced." - PURPOSE OF THE BILL

That has created an extra revenue stram for film studios and one with huge potential as more people buy DVD players and as other material such as television shows, children's shows and music become popular in DVD format."; -- ""DVD is a significant new revenue window and I don't think the market has worked that out yet," Macquarie Equities analyst Alex Pollak said.

Summary: "From the turn of the twentieth century through the late 1950s, Havana was a locus for American movie stars, with glamorous visitors including Errol Flynn, John Wayne, and Marlon Brando. In fact, Hollywood was seemingly everywhere in pre-Castro Havana, with movie theaters three to a block in places, widely circulated silver screen fanzines, and terms like “cowboy” and “gangster” entering Cuban vernacular speech. Hollywood in Havana uses this historical backdrop as the catalyst for a startling question: Did exposure to half a century of Hollywood pave the way for the Cuban Revolution of 1959? Megan Feeney argues that the freedom fighting extolled in American World War II dramas and the rebellious values and behaviors seen in postwar film noir helped condition Cuban audiences to expect and even demand purer forms of Cuban democracy and national sovereignty. At the same time, influential Cuban intellectuals worked to translate Hollywood ethics into revolutionary rhetoric—which, ironically, led to pointed critiques and subversions of the US presence in Cuba. Hollywood in Havana not only expands our notions of how American cinema was internalized around the world—it also broadens our view of the ongoing history of US-Cuban interactions, both cultural and political." -- Back cover.
