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 siteISBN: 9781474461764Contents: Acknowledgements -- List of Figures -- 1.

US ; NATIONAL CULTURE AND THE CINEMA. USA ; CAPITALISM AND THE CINEMA ; FINANCING. USA ; INTERNATIONAL DISTRIBUTION. USA 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 siteISBN: 9780520291690Contents: List of Illustrations -- Acknowledgments -- -- 1.

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" -- BlurbNotes: Includes bibliographical references, notes and indexISBN: 9053563121Donation: Adrien MilesContents: 1.

Cinema in a small state : distribution and exhibition in Adelaide at the coming of sound in Studies in Australasian cinema (2007) vol.1 iss.3 p.299-313
Author: Walsh, Mike PhysDes: ArticleSubject: DISTRIBUTION. AUSTRALIA ; EXHIBITION. AUSTRALIA ; HISTORY OF CINEMA. TRANSITION SILENT-SOUND ; HISTORY OF EXHIBITION. AUSTRALIA 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

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: Includes bibliographical references.ISBN: 9780231167550Donation: Senses of CinemaContents: Machine generated contents note: 1.Accelerationism

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.""

Digital disruption : Cinema moves on-line / Edited by Dina Iordanova and Stuart Cunningham St Andrews, Scotland: St Andrews Film Studies, 2012.
Call No: 301(-5) IOREdition: 2012Place: St Andrews, ScotlandPublisher: St Andrews Film StudiesPubDate: 2012PhysDes: viii, 223 p. ; 23 cmSubject: DIGITAL DISTRIBUTION ; INTERNET AND THE CINEMA ; DISTRIBUTION ; COPYRIGHT ; YOUTUBE 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 siteISBN: 9780956373076Donation: donated by Senses of Cinema, 2014Contents: Digital Disruption: Technological Innovation and Global Film Circulation / Dina Iordanova -- On-line Film Distribution: Its History and Global Complexion / Stuart Cunningham and Jon Silver -- Digital Revolution: Active Audiences and Fragmented Consumption / Michael Gubbins -- Internet-enabled Dissemination: Managing Uncertainty in the Film Value Chain / Michael Franklin -- Convergence, Digitisation and the Future of Film Festivals / Marijke De Valck -- Mission Unreachable: How Jaman Is Shaping the Future of On-line Distribution / Jon Silver, Stuart Cunningham, Mark David Ryan -- ‘IMDb Helps Me Sleep at Night’: How a Simple Database Changed the World of Film / Alex Fischer -- ‘The Fully Clickable Submission’: How Withoutabox Captured the Hearts and Minds of Film Festivals Everywhere / Alex Fischer -- Spotlight on MUBI: Two Interviews with Efe Cakarel, Founder and CEO of MUBI / Paul Fileri and Ruby Cheung -- ‘What Do You Do with What You See?’: Patterns and Uses of Cinéphilia, Then and Now / Ben Slater -- Appendix 1: Timeline – On-line Distribution of Feature Films / Stuart Cunningham and Jon Silver -- Appendix 2: A Selection of / Mostly Legal) VOD and On-line Content Providers / Stuart Cunningham and Jon Silver -- Appendix 3: Comparative Internet Rankings: 40 International On-line Movies-on-demand Sites / Stuart Cunningham and Jon Silver -- Appendix 4: Comparative Deal Terms in 2009 / Stuart Cunningham and Jon Silver -- Appendix 5: Related Websites / Alexander Marlow-Mann

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.

AUSTRALIA ; COLUMBIA TRISTAR ; GARRA, MICHELE Summary: On how the DVD has become the most popular home entertainment device in history.Notes: accessed from: Factiva. Dow Jones Reuters Business Interactive LLC. RMIT University Library. (14 May 2007). Quotations: -- Australians have gone from owning 1.6 VHS movies per household, to 10 DVDs.; -- Michele Garra. 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."

AUSTRALIA ; HOME VIDEO MARKETING ; AUSTRALIAN VISUAL SOFTWARE DISTRIBUTORS ASSOCIATION ; BUSH, SIMON Summary: The slashing of DVD prices fuels high sales of the product. The article looks at the shortening of cinema to DVD sales release and why DVD is a popular format. Good article!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."

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 BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 9781844578382Contents: -- acknowledgments -- notes on contributors -- foreword / Janet Wasko -- 1: introduction / Nolwenn Mingant, Cecilia Tirtaine and Joel Augros -- `My job is to find the right signals at the right moment for the right people' an interview with Benoit Mely / Laurent Creton and Nolwenn Mingant -- I.MARKETING AND FILM CULTURE -- `There simply Isn't one-shape-fits-all for film' an interview with Michael Williams-Jones / Nolwenn Mingant -- And Tom Cruise Climbed the Burj Khalifa, or How Marketing Shapes Hollywood Film Production / Nolwenn Mingant -- `My Big Fat Life in Ruins' Marketing Greekness and the Contemporary US Independent Film / Yannis Tzioumakis and Lydia Papadimitriou -- Carry On Laughing Selling English Humour in France / Cecilia Tirtaine and Joel Augros -- Hearing Voices Dubbing and Marketing in the Ice Age Series A case study / Nolwenn Mingant -- Hollywood in China Continuities and Disjunctures in Film Marketing / Michael Curtin, Wesley Jacks and Yongli Li -- Film Marketing in Nollywood A case study / Alessandro Jedlowski -- Marketing High Frame Rate in The Hobbit Trilogy A Spectacular Case of Promoting and Un-promoting New Cinema Technology / Miriam Ross -- Niche Marketing in Peru An Interview / Nolwenn Mingant -- II.MARKETING FOR AND BY THE CONSUMER -- Leaked Information and Rumours The Buzz Effect A case study / Joel Augros -- Brave New Films, Brave New Ways The Internet and the Future of Low- to No Budget Film Distribution and Marketing / Hayley Trowbridge -- Between Storytelling and Marketing, the SocialSamba Model An Interview with Aaron Williams / Nolwenn Mingant -- Promoting in Six Seconds New Advertising Strategies Using the Video Social Network Vine in Spain A case study / Javier Lozano Delmar and Jose Antonio Muniz-Velazquez -- Piracy and Promotion Understanding the Double-edged Power of Crowds / Ramon Lobato -- Marketing Bait (2012) Using SMART Data to Identify e-guanxi Among China's `Internet Aborigines' / Brian Yecies, Jie Yang, Matthew Berryman and Kai Soh -- From Marketing to Performing the Market The Emerging Role of Digital Data in the Independent Film Business / Michael Franklin, Dimitrinka Stoyanova Russell and Barbara Townley -- POSTSCRIPT: THE INVISIBLE SIDE OF BUSINESS: B-TO-B MARKETING -- marketing the `Avatar Revolution', or How to Sell Digital Technology to Exhibitors / Kira Kitsopanidou -- `It's Africa.

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.Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.ISBN: 9780226593692Contents: Introduction. Looking up: Hollywood and revolutionary Cuban nationalism -- The film business that unites: early US cinema in Havana, 1897-1928 -- Teaching eyes to see: the advent of Cuban film criticism, 1928-1934 -- Our men in Havana: Hollywood and good neighborly bonds, 1934-1941 -- You are men! fight for liberty!

Merchants of Menace: The Business of Horror Cinema responds to a major void in film history by shedding much-needed new light on the economic dimensions of one of the world's most enduring audiovisual forms. Given horror cuts across budgetary categories, industry sectors, national film cultures, and media, Merchants of Menace also promises to expand understandings of the economics of cinema generally. Covering 1930-present, this groundbreaking collection boasts fourteen original chapters from world-leading experts taking as their focus such diverse topics as early zombie pictures, post-WWII chillers, Civil Rights-Era marketing, Hollywood literary adaptations, Australian exploitation, "torture-porn" Auteurs, and twenty-first-century remakes." - Publisher's WebsiteNotes: Formerly CIP; Includes bibliographical references and index; Also issued onlineISBN: 9781623564209Contents: -- Production lines, trends, and cycles.

More than 'making do' : rethinking cinema attendance in regional and rural Australia in Studies in Australasian cinema (2011) vol.5 iss.1 p.7-17
Author: Aveyard, Karina PhysDes: ArticleSubject: AUDIENCES. AUSTRALIA ; EXHIBITION. AUSTRALIA ; DISTRIBUTION. AUSTRALIA Summary: Cinema is one of the most popular forms of cultural entertainment in contemporary rural Australia, yet very little is understood about film circulation, presentation and consumption in non-metropolitan locations. Despite a growing interest in the situation of rural cinema by film historians, scholars have been slow to engage with the detail and meaning of its more recent past. The preoccupation with the connections between cinema and contemporary modernity have tended to over-estimate the significance of the metropolitan and to obscure the diversity and richness of cinema-going practice in Australia. Drawing on analysis of national box office data and material from a microstudy conducted in the rural town of Merimbula on the far south coast of New South Wales, this article seeks to contribute to addressing this gap. It considers three key questions — Who is watching films at the cinema in rural Australia? Why are they watching? And what do these acts of consumption mean? -- Abstract

Netflix nation : the geography of digital distribution / Ramon Lobato New York: New York University Press,
Call No: 386.5-5 LOBAuthor: Lobato, Ramon Edition: 2019Place: New YorkPublisher: New York University PressPhysDes: xii, 236 pages : illustrated ; 21 cmSeries: Critical Cultural CommunicationSubject: NETFLIX ; VIDEO ON DEMAND ; DIGITAL DISTRIBUTION Summary: Television, once a broadcast medium, now also travels through our telephone lines, fiber optic cables, and wireless networks. It is delivered to viewers via apps, screens large and small, and media players of all kinds. In this unfamiliar environment, new global giants of television distribution are emerging—including Netflix, the world’s largest subscription video-on-demand service.
Combining media industry analysis with cultural theory, Ramon Lobato explores the political and policy tensions at the heart of the digital distribution revolution, tracing their longer history through our evolving understanding of media globalization. Netflix Nations considers the ways that subscription video-on-demand services, but most of all Netflix, have irrevocably changed the circulation of media content. It tells the story of how a global video portal interacts with national audiences, markets, and institutions, and what this means for how we understand global media in the internet age.
Netflix Nations addresses a fundamental tension in the digital media landscape – the clash between the internet’s capacity for global distribution and the territorial nature of media trade, taste, and regulation. The book also explores the failures and frictions of video-on-demand as experienced by audiences. The actual experience of using video platforms is full of subtle reminders of market boundaries and exclusions: platforms are geo-blocked for out-of-region users (“this video is not available in your region”); catalogs shrink and expand from country to country; prices appear in different currencies; and subtitles and captions are not available in local languages. These conditions offer rich insight for understanding the actual geographies of digital media distribution.
Contrary to popular belief, the story of Netflix is not just an American one. From Argentina to Australia, Netflix’s ascension from a Silicon Valley start-up to an international television service has transformed media consumption on a global scale. Netflix Nations will help readers make sense of a complex, ever-shifting streaming media environment. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781479804948

AUSTRALIA Summary: The writer examines how dynamic and shifting relations between the local/national and the international have transformed the ways in which people think about what constitutes Australian cinema. Noting that over the last 20 years or so, Australian cinema's international relations in production and policy have expanded and become more complex, while those with Hollywood have been transformed, he illustrates how relations of commonality and continuity with the international called up in the new arrangements challenge the dominant articulation in policy of difference from other kinds of filmmaking as the basis of Australian cinema. -- Provided by publisher

The politics of digital distribution : exclusionary structures in online cinema in Studies in Australasian cinema (2009) vol.3 iss.2 p.167-178
Author: Lobato, Ramon PhysDes: ArticleSubject: INTERNET AND THE CINEMA. AUSTRALIA ; INTERNET AND THE CINEMA ; DIGITAL DISTRIBUTION ; DISTRIBUTION. AUSTRALIA Summary: The hype around digital film distribution is now at fiver pitch, with promises of a brave new world of instant delivery, unfettered consumer choice and new revenue streams for film-makers. Surveying the current array of commercial online video-on-demand (VOD) services, this article offers some critical reflections on these emerging circulatory models. The focus is on power relations within the online VOI industry and on issues of audience access and equity. The article argues that distribution should be a key concern for contemporary film researchers, given the power of distributors to determine the range of films available to viewers and the conditions under which they are accessible. While the ‘democratizing’ potential of online distribution may be appealing, it is important to recognize that digital delivery infrastructures may not result in any real diversification of film culture, that much of the Australian audience will be excluded from their reach and that the vast majority of online film consumption will continue to take place in the extralegal realm. -- AbstractNotes: Part of a special issue on digital cinema in Australia and New Zealand

AUSTRALIA Summary: "The workshop, whose edited proceedings are reprinted in this volume, was prompted by convenient accidents of place and time. Early in 2009, a mature-age student with a background in journalism asked me the rhetorical question: why was Australian cinema in decline? Pressed about the proposition contained in the question, the student pointed out that in the year 2008, only two feature films - Australia and Happy Feet - appeared to have a noticeable presence at the theatrical box office. In what has become an average figure for annual Australian production output, some 22 feature films had been released that year but only these two films seemed to have any impact so far as their marketing and audience visibility was concerned. But, of course, this view drastically simpifies the situation of what is occurring in Australian film distribution and exhibition and how that is impacting on film production. The fact is that we know little of how these elements currently operate so far as various sectors of the Australian cinema industry are concernerned. This prompted first thoughts about undertaking some form of investgation" -- IntroductionNotes: Edited proceedings of a workshop "...sponsored by Griffith University in conjunction with Screen Australia and held at the Griffith University Conservatorium of Music at South Bank in Brisbane." -- Introduction; Includes bibliographical referencesISBN: 9781921291708Contents: -- contributors -- introduction / Albert Moran -- Australia's film and television geography / Tom O'regan -- the plight of the Australian film: traditional distribution and exhibition and the search for alternatives / Cathy Overett -- marketing and the fate of locally produced films in Australian cinemas / Peter Mageros -- the shift to digital cinema disribution and exhibition: implications for the future of Australian films / Trish FitzSimons -- rethinking cinema going in regional and rural Australia / Karina Aveyard -- dvd rental exhibition : running an independent outlet / Andrew Leavold -- community targeted distribution and Cinema Ventures Ltd / Gil Scrine -- Screen Australia and Australian Screen Culture / Susan Ward -- roundtable discussion -- appendix a: workshop program -- appendix b: presentation slides -- Australia's film and television geography / Tom O'Regan -- b2: rethinking cinema going in regional and rural Australia / Karina Aveyard -- b3: Screen Australia and Australian Screen Culture / Susan Ward --

Rethinking distribution : developing the parameters for a micro-analysis of the movement of motion pictures in Studies in Australasian cinema (2007) vol.1 iss.3 p.315-331
Author: Thorne, Ross PhysDes: ArticleSubject: HISTORY OF CINEMA. AUSTRALIA ; DISTRIBUTION. AUSTRALIA ; CINEMAS. AUSTRALIA ; EXHIBITION. AUSTRALIA Summary: Although there is a plethora of popular and academic literature on ‘cinema’ little, if any, explains the day-to-day management of getting films from the distributor to the cinema, from cinema to cinema, and from cinema back to the distributor. The author's discovery of a cache of historic film-hire documents, normally discarded after a couple of years, has thrown light on this aspect of micro-management of film distribution. From some 3,500 documents for the 1950s decade Ross Thorne has produced a database covering about 80 per cent of the films shown at one small-town cinema in New South Wales. Analysis of the database shows how complex cinema management was and how, up until the coming of television, the railways played a crucial role in the organization of the regional entertainment business. -- Abstract

Rural cinema audiences in South Australia in the 1930s in Studies in Australasian cinema (2007) vol.1 iss.3 p.353-375
Author: Walker, Dylan PhysDes: ArticleSubject: HISTORY OF EXHIBITION. AUSTRALIA ; DISTRIBUTION. AUSTRALIA ; AUDIENCES. AUSTRALIA ; STATE AND THE CINEMA. AUSTRALIA: SOUTH AUSTRALIA Summary: Very few South Australian local histories give any account of the ritual screening of films in local community halls and regional picture theatres. Given that the 1930s was a turbulent era for the exhibition industry, the survival of the rural picture show beyond the decade suggests that it played a significant role in local history. This article will discuss the distribution and exhibition of films in rural South Australia during the early 1930s and the impact of legislation on the small operators. It goes on to examine the cinema-going preferences of the mid-north town of Snowtown during two years from July 1933 to June 1935 and considers the factors other than taste that determined the popularity of a screening. -- Abstract

Screen traffic : movies, multiplexes, and global culture / by Charles R. Acland London: Duke University Press, 2003.
Call No: 410 ACLAuthor: Acland, Charles R. Source: UKPlace: LondonPublisher: Duke University PressPubDate: 2003PhysDes: xii, 337 p. : ill. ; 24 cm.Subject: AUDIENCES ; AUDIENCE RESEARCH ; CINEMAS ; DISTRIBUTION Summary: "In Screen Traffic, Charles R. Acland examines how, since the mid-1980s, the U.S commercial movie business has altered conceptions of movie-going both within the industry and among audiences. He shows how studios, in their increasing reliance on revenues from international audiences and from the ancillary markets of television, videotape, dvd, and pay-perview, have cultivated an understanding of their commodoties as mutating global products. Consequently, the cultural practice of moviegoing has changed significantly, as has the place of the cinmea in relation to other sites of leisure. Integrating film and cultural theory with close analysis of promotional materials, entertainment news, trade publications, and economic reports, Acland presents an array of evidence for the new understanding of movies and moviegoing that has developed within popular culture and the entertainment industry. In particular, he dissects a key development: the rise of the megaplex, characterized by large auditoriums, plentiful screens, and consumer activities other than film viewing. He traces its genesis from 1986, with the re-entry of studios into the movie exhibition business, through 1998, when reports of the economic destabilization of exhibition began to surface, just as the rise of so-called e-cinema signaled another wave of change. Documenting the current tendency toward an acclerated cinema culture, one that appears to arrive simultaneously for everyone, everywhere, Screen Traffic unearths and critiques the corporate and cultural forces contributing to the 'felt internationalism' of our global era.

Screening Europe in Australasia : transnational silent film before and after the rise of Hollywood / Julie K. Allen Exeter: University of Exeter Press,
Call No: 302(94) ALLAuthor: Allen, Julie K. Edition: 2022Place: ExeterPublisher: University of Exeter PressPhysDes: xx, 476 pages : illustrated ; 25 cmSeries: Exeter studies in film historySubject: DISTRIBUTION. AUSTRALIA ; EXHIBITION. AUSTRALIA ; DISTRIBUTION. NEW ZEALAND ; EXHIBITION. NEW ZEALAND ; PATHE ; ITALIAN CINEMA ; SCANDINAVIAN COUNTRIES ; GERMANY ; UFA Summary: Through a detailed study of the circulation of European silent film in Australasia in the early twentieth century, this book challenges the historical myopia that treats Hollywood films as having always dominated global film culture.
Before World War I, European silent feature films were ubiquitous in Australia and New Zealand, teaching Antipodean audiences about Continental cultures and familiarizing them with glamorous European stars, from Asta Nielsen to Emil Jannings. After the rise of Hollywood and then the shift to sound film, this history—and its implications for cross-cultural exchange—was lost. Julie K. Allen recovers that history, with its flamboyant participants, transnational currents, innovative genres, and geopolitical complications, bringing it all vividly to life.
Making ground-breaking use of digitized Australian and New Zealand newspapers, the author reconstructs the distribution and exhibition of European silent films in the Antipodes, along the way incorporating compelling biographical sketches of the ambitious pioneers of the Australasian cinema industry. She reveals the complexity and competitiveness of the early cinema market, in a region with high consumer demand and low domestic production, and frames the dramatic shift to almost exclusively American cinema programming during World War I, contextualizing the rise of the art film in the 1920s in competition with mainstream Hollywood productions.
This book’s treatment of the extensive circulation of European silent features and stars in Australasia reveals the vibrant transnationalism of silent film before the rise of Hollywood, and frames the emergence of art house cinema in the 1920s. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781905816873Contents: List of Figures -- Acknowledgments -- Part I: Film Distribution and Exhibition in Australasia before World War I -- 1.

Shadow economies of cinema : mapping informal film distribution / Ramon Lobato London: Palgrave macmillan [on behalf of the] bfi, 2012.
Call No: 301.76 LOBAuthor: Lobato, Ramon Source: UKPlace: LondonPublisher: Palgrave macmillan [on behalf of the] bfiPubDate: 2012PhysDes: viii, 168 p. ; 24 cmSeries: Cultural histories of cinemaSubject: DISTRIBUTION ; PIRACY ; DIGITAL DISTRIBUTION ; COPYRIGHT ; INTERNET Summary: "How do people access movies today?; What are the most popular and powerful channels for media distribution on a global scale?; How are film industries changing in the face of media convergence and digitisation?
To answer questions such as these, argues Ramon Lobato, we must shift our gaze away from the legal film business and toward cinema's shadow economies. All around the world, films are bought from roadside stalls, local markets, and grocery stores; they are illegally downloaded and streamed; they are watched in makeshift video clubs, on street corners, and in restaurants, shops and bars. International film culture in its actually-existing forms is a messy affair; and it relies to a great extent on black and grey media markets. Examining the industrial dynamics of these subterranean film networks across a number of different sites-from Los Angeles to Lagos, Melbourne to Mexico City-this book shows how they constitute a central rather than marginal part of audiovisual culture and commerce.
Combining film industry analysis with cultural theory, Shadow Economies of Cinema opens up a new area of inquiry for cinema studies, putting industry research into dialogue with wider debates about economic informality and commodity circulation. Written in an accessible style, this book offers an original 'bottom-up' perspective on the global cinema industry for researchers and students in film studies, cultural studies, and media and communications."-BOOK BLURBNotes: includes appendix: Film Distribution Research Guide; includes bibliographical references; includes indexISBN: 9781844574117Contents: Machine generated contents note: Why distribution? -- Formal and informal film economies -- Shadows, sites and circuits -- 1.Distribution from Above and Below -- Redefining distribution: theory and practice -- Distribution from below -- The cultural politics of distribution -- Conclusion -- 2.The Straight-to-video Slaughterhouse -- `Anything with sprocket holes' -- The STV aesthetic -- Transnational STV circuits -- Shooting and selling STV action in the Asia-Pacific -- The slaughterhouse of cinema -- Conclusion -- 3.Informal Media Economies -- The formal and the informal -- The centrality of informality -- Informal economies of cinema -- Informality, cinema and the state -- Between formal and informal distribution: Tropa de elite -- 4.Nollywood at Large -- A short history of the Nigerian video boom -- The formalising imperative -- Formalising international distribution -- Conclusion -- 5.Six Faces of Piracy -- Copyright and the construction of piracy -- Piracy as theft --

He has taken into consideration the needs of television and the text now contains interviews with well-known TV producers and key TV personnel. It deals with every aspect of documentary and factual film production. Intended for the working professional, the trainee, and the student, amateurs too will find the breadth and scope of the subject stimulating. Nowadays when the film serves not merely as a tool of entertainment, but increasingly as a tool with a variety of eminently practical jobs to do, more people than ever before become involved with film production.
Public relations officers, sales managers, television executives, those in charge of works film units, organisations using films for fund raising for charities, and members of expeditions will find here vital information. The means and methods of producing factual films are dealt with step-by-step from the initial idea to the making of release prints and their distribution. The typical problems of the "documentary" - shooting on distant and remote locations, as well as the difficulties of providing effective lighting outside the studio - are presented in practical terms. Sound recording, both under studio conditions and on location, is covered in detail. The techniques involved in laying and mixing multiple recordings to produce the final master track are described. Especially valuable are those practical suggestions that the author is able to offer from his own long personal experience. These range from budgeting and obtaining insurance cover to dealing with foreign customs." -- BOOK JACKETNotes: First ed. published 1963; Includes indexISBN: 0240509158; 0240509293 (pbk.)LON: 8735625 8735625URL status: URL: 'http://-'

Author: Verhoeven, Deb PhysDes: ArticleSubject: HISTORY OF CINEMA. AUSTRALIA ; DISTRIBUTION. AUSTRALIA ; EXHIBITION. AUSTRALIA ; AUDIENCES. AUSTRALIA ; ETHNIC GROUPS AND THE CINEMA Summary: From the late 1940s until the late 1970s Melbourne was home to a dynamic Greek cinema circuit made up of some 30 different inner-city and suburban venues operated by a handful of vertically integrated exhibition/distribution businesses. Dionysos Films was amongst the first Greek film exhibition/distribution companies to form in Australia and from 1949 until 1956 it operated with little significant competition, establishing the parameters for a diasporic Greek film circuit that stretched across regional and metropolitan Australia and into New Zealand. This article measures the shadow cast by Dionysos Films (and its charismatic proprietor Stathis Raftopoulos) over the history of Antipodean Greek film experiences and the implications that this neglected aspect of Australian and Greek film history has for our understanding of the national cinemas in both countries. -- Abstract

The approach draws on ideas from film, media, and cultural studies in order to present new insights into a range of puzzling questions: What makes the biggest box office films attractive to audiences? Why do films that work well with audiences sometimes suffer poor distribution? What is a 'cult film' and how do such films gain thier status?
Case studies of films such as Donnie Darko, Ringu, and Hero are included alongside discussion of film distribution and exhibition and the growing importance of audience comments and discussion via internet forums. This book will help film and media students with their studies and will provide the general reader with an accessible introduction to the international film industry."Notes: Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 9781844571413Contents: --Preface -- Acknowledgements -- Introduction -- 1: Agenda setting -- 2: How the Film Industry Perceives Audiences -- 3: Distribution, Exhibition and Critical Commentary -- 4: How do Audiences Read Films? -- 5: The attraction of stars and genres -- 6: Theorising audience behaviour -- 7: Researching audiences and the film market -- 8: The culture of Film viewing -- Endpiece -- Glossary -- Resources -- Index

VaultAge : digitizing and contextualizing Australian audio-visual content: Australianscreen online (aso.gov.au) in Studies in Australasian cinema (2009) vol.3 iss.2 p.205-222
Author: Aveyard, Karina PhysDes: ArticleSubject: DIGITAL CINEMA ; DIGITAL DISTRIBUTION ; DIGITAL TECHNOLOGY. AUSTRALIA ; INDUSTRY, FILM. AUSTRALIA ; NATIONAL FILM AND SOUND ARCHIVE ; EXHIBITION. AUSTRALIA Summary: Australia is on the path to achieving a full-scale conversion to digital cinema exhibition probably within the next five to ten years. Despite early optimism that digitization could provide a catalyst for greater democratization of the Australian exhibition market by creating more opportunities for audiences to see independent and alternate films, this outcome now appears far from certain. The launch and ongoing roll-out of the international standard for digital exhibition, which is now firmly controlled by the major American studios, is intensifying, rather than diminishing, the market dominance of these media conglomerates and their local allies, the major Australian exhibition chains. Independent film exhibition and alternative presentation formats, on the other hand, are being pushed even further to the periphery by these increasingly centralized market forces. While independent and major exhibitors have historically coexisted, although at times in a somewhat uneasy relationship, the financial imperatives of digital cinema now threaten to drive many independent cinemas to the edge, and with them the ongoing diversity of cinema culture in Australia. Of particular concern is the late of independent theatres in regional and rural locations where many provide the only public screening opportunities within large geographic areas. This article outlines digital developments in Australia's commercial cinema industry within a national and international context, and in doing so considers the impact of digital exhibition technologies on Australia's independent cinema sector. -- AbstractNotes: Part of a special issue on digital cinema in Australia and New Zealand

Some interesting stats listed.Notes: accessed from: Factiva. Dow Jones Reuters Business Interactive LLC. RMIT University Library. (14 May 2007). Quotations: -- "Video rentals alone here amount to about $800 million a year, considerably more than the annual box office take. About three years ago, video overtook theatrical release as the single biggest contributor to film industry revenue."; -- "Films go from theatrical (cinema) release straight to video rental, then to video sale, and only then - about 18 months after they were first released - to Pay TV. Free-to-air broadcasters bring up the rear."; -- "The average Australian household with a video recorder (85 per cent of the total) buys two videos a year compared with four a year in the UK and seven a year in the US."
