The art of record offers a fascinating insight into the functions of documentary in film and television. Documentary's attempts to depict reality, and to comment on it, have provoked disagreement from the 1920s to the present day. Recent debates about knowledge and representation, and about the changing character of publiv culture, have increased its interests and relevance. John Corner presents a clear overview of the theoretical issues and critical debates around documentary, and discusses the development of the main styles and approaches, including dramadocs and fly-on-the-wall. He also looks at the dual identity of work in documentary - as both artefact and as reference.The book provides a valuable detailed analysis of powerful documentary films and programmes such as the classic 1930s films Coalface and Housing Problems (on aspects of contemporary work and environment), Cathy Come Home (whose presentation of homelessness had an enormous impact) and The Life and Times of Rosie the Riveter (about the treatment of women in US factories during World War Two)." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographical references (p.

Australian multicultural policy and television drama in comparative contexts / by Harvey May Queensland: 2003.

AUSTRALIA ; PIZZA [TV] (AT, Paul Fenech, 2000) ; PIZZA [TV] (AT, Paul Fenech, 2000-) Summary: "This thesis examines changes which have occurrred since the late 1980s and early 1990s with respect to the representation of cultural diversity on Australian popular drama programming. The thesis finds that a significant number of actors of diverse cultural and linguistic background have negotiated the television industry employment process to obtain acting roles in a lead capacity. The majority of these actors are from the second generation of immigrants, who increasingly make up a significant component of Australia's multicultural population. The way in which these actors are portrayed on-screen has also shifted from one of a 'performed' ethnicity, to an 'everyday' portrayal. The thesis develops an analysis which connects the development and broad political support for multicultural policy as expressed in the National Agenda for a Multicultural Australia to the changes in both employment and representation practices in popular television programming in the late 1990s and early 2000s. The thesis addresses multicultural debates by arguing for a mainstreaming position. The thesis makes detailed comparison of cultural diversity and television in the jurisdictions of the United States, the United Kingdom and New Zealand to support the broad argument that cultural diversity policy measures produce observable outcomes in television programming." -- ABSTRACTNotes: Presented to the Creative Industries Faculty, Queensland University of Technology; Thesis (Ph.D.)--Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, 2004.

"On 7 April 1998, security guards moved onto Patrick Stevedores docks around Australia and ordered the waterfront workers to stand down immediately.

'Bastard Boys' tells the story of the fight that stopped the nation.
"A political thriller, war film, buddy movie, love story and courtroom drama all rolled into one, 'Bastard Boys' follows the lives of the key players in one of the most significant events in Australia's recent past.
"Written by Sue Smith ('Brides of Christ', 'The Leaving of Liverpool', 'My Brother Jack', 'The Road from Coorain') and directed by Ray Quint ('The Secret Life of Us', 'McLeod's Daughters', 'Blue Heelers'), 'Bastard Boys' screened on ABC TV in 2007."

In addition to Charles Warren's broad introductory history of the genre, the book takes a close look at ethnographic films, cinema verite, memoir and autobiography, docudramas, essay films, and newsreels, from classics like Night and Fog and Nanook of the North to more recent important work like Film about a Woman Who..., Harlan County, U.S.A., Sans Soleil, and Forest of Bliss.
Representations of reality are increasingly contested, in courtrooms and Congress, as well as in art. Asking what the art of film can achieve, Helene Keyssar considers the history of nonfiction films by women; Jay Cantor discusses film investigations of the Holocaust; Patricia Hampl looks at how autobiographical films render experience into narrative; Robert Gardner questions the filmmaker's "impulse to preserve"; and poet Susan Howe explores structures of mourning in several filmmakers. All of the books essays provide deeply felt understandings of documentary film, and of how we live with, and within, images." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 345-350) and indexISBN: 0819552879 (cl : alk. paper); 0819562904 (pbk. : alk. paper)LON: 11642141Contents: Words of welcome / Stanley Cavell -- Introduction, with a brief history of nonfiction film / Charles Warren -- Death and the image / Jay Cantor -- Memory's movies / Patricia Hampl -- Eternal Verites / William Rothman -- The toil of thought: on several nonfiction films by women / Helene Keyssar -- The camera people / Eliot Weinberger -- The impulse to preserve / Robert Gardner -- You are there / Maureen Howard -- Earth and beyond: Dusan Makaveyev's WR: Mysteries of the Organism / Charles Warren -- In search of the centaur: the essay film / Phillip Lopate -- Vertov's cinematic transposition of reality / Vlada Petric -- Sorting facts; or, nineteen ways of looking at marker / Susan Howe

In doing so, it interrogates some of the key assumptions concerning the relationship between aesthetics and the politics of identity, that have influenced and informed television drama criticism during this period.

Source: US/UKPlace: LondonPublisher: RoutledgePubDate: 2016PhysDes: xvii, 209 pages : illustrations ; 24 cmSubject: DOCUMENTARIES ; DOCUMENTARY DRAMAS ; DOCUMENTARY FILMS ; CRITICISM Summary: "Contemporary Documentary offers a rich survey of the rapidly expanding landscape of documentary film, television, video, and new media. The collection of original essays addresses the emerging forms, popular genres, and innovative approaches of the digital era.
The anthology highlights geographically and thematically diverse examples of documentaries that have expanded the scope and impact of non-fiction cinema and captured the attention of global audiences over the past three decades. It also explores the experience of documentary today, with its changing dynamics of production, collaboration, distribution, and exhibition, and its renewed political and cultural relevance.
The twelve chapters - featuring engaging case studies and written from a wide range of perspectives including film theory, social theory, ethics, new media, and experience design - invite students to think critically about documentary as a vibrant field, unrestricted in its imagination and quick in its response to new forms of filmmaking.
Offering a methodical exploration of the expansive reach of documentary as a creative force in the media and society of the twenty-first century, Contemporary Documentary is an ideal collection for students of film, media, and communication who are studying documentary film."

This book surveys the careers of the central creators of those stories for Australian television—the writers who learnt how to work in a new medium, adapting to its constraints and exploring its creative possibilities. Informed by interviews with many writers, it describes the establishment of Australian television drama production, observing the way writers grasped the creative and business opportunities that television presented. It examines the development of Australian versions of the major television genres—the sitcom, the police drama, the historical series, docudrama, and social drama— presenting a ‘canon’ of significant Australian television drama productions that deserve to be remembered. It offers an account of the emergence of work by Indigenous writers for television and it argues for the consideration of television drama alongside histories of Australian film and stage drama. -- publisher's web siteISBN: 9781925984880

Edited by one of the leading British authorities in the field, The Documentary Film Book is an essential guide to current thinking on documentary film.
In a series of fascinating essays, key international experts discuss the theory of documentary, outline current understandings of its history (from pre-Flaherty to the post-Griersonian world of digital 'i-Docs'), survey documentary production (from Africa to Europe, and from the Americas to Asia), consider documentaries by marginalised minority communities, and assess its contribution to other disciplines and arts. Brought together here in one volume, these scholars offer compelling evidence as to why, over the last few decades, documentary has come to the centre of screen studies. -- BOOK BLURBISBN: 9781844573417Contents: Acknowledgments -- Notes on Contributors -- Foreword: Why Documentaries Matter -- Introduction: The Filmed Documentary --; PART I: DOCUMENTARY VALUES -- The Question of Evidence, the Power of Rhetoric and Documentary Film: Bill Nichols -- 'I'll Believe It When I Trust the Source': Documentary Images and Visual Evidence: Carl Plantinga -- 'The Performance Documentary': The Performing Film-Maker, the Acting Subject: Stella Bruzzi -- On Truth, Objectivity and Partisanship: The Case of Michael Moore: Douglas Kellner -- CGI and the End of Photography as Evidence: Taylor Downing -- Drawn From Life: The Animated Documentary: Andy Glynne -- Dramadoc?

He traces themes such as the influence of US crime drama on English film, and film adaptations of literary works as they appear in screen work from the 1930s to the present. A Canterbury Tale and the documentary Listen to Britain are analyzed in the context of village pageants and other wartime explorations of Englishness at risk. English crime dramas are set against the writings of George Orwell, while a famous line from Noel Coward also leads to a discussion of music and image in works including Brief Encounter and Look Back in Anger. Screen adaptation is also broached in analyses of the 1985 BBC version of Dickens's Bleak House and Merchant-Ivory's The Remains of the Day." - BOOK BLURBNotes: Includes notes and indexISBN: 9780253221773

Call No: 729.22 PAGAuthor: Paget, Derek Edition: 2ndSource: US/UKPlace: ManchesterPublisher: Manchester University PressPubDate: c2011PhysDes: viii, 327 p. ; 22 cmSubject: DOCUMENTARY DRAMAS ; THEORY Summary: " This second edition of 'No other way to tell it' defines the docudrama, analyses its codes and conventions, and reviews contrasting histories in American and British practice - taking into account new developments since the first edition. These include television's radically new ecology, with formats a growth area. Docudrama in film has also burgeoned recently, partly because the industries themselves have grown closer and partly because of continued interest in the lives of the famous and of those in the news. International co-production now exploits many different screening opportunities and possibilities, with the result that docudrama has become a cinematic as well as televisual staple. Docudrama is not only popular with audiences; it also causes constant flurries of commentary and controversy. Concerns about 'borders' and 'boundaries', a questioning of documentary's claim to represent the real, doubts about the popular audience's ability to cope with new approaches to the ideas of witness, testimony and confession, authenticity and truth - all these issues fuel the debate.

Screening Shakespeare in the twenty-first century / edited by Mark Thornton Burnett and Ramona Wray Edinburgh: Edinburgh University Press, 2006.
Call No: 753SHA SCRAuthor: Burnett, Mark Thornton ; Wray, Ramona Edition: 1st ed.Source: UKPlace: EdinburghPublisher: Edinburgh University PressPubDate: 2006PhysDes: iv, 218 p. ; 24 cmSubject: DRAMAS ; ADAPTATIONS ; LITERATURE AND THE CINEMA ; ADAPTATIONS. SHAKESPEARE, WILLIAM ; Shakespeare, William Summary: This bold new collection offers an innovative discussion of Shakespeare on screen after the millenium. Cutting-edge and fully up-to-date, it surveys the rich field of Bardic film representations, from Michael Almereyda's Hamlet to the BBC 'Shakespe(Re)-Told' season, from Michael Radford's The Merchant of Venice to Peter Babakitis' Henry V. In addition to offering in-depth analyses of all the major productions, Screening Shakespeare in the Twenty-first Century includes reflections upon the less well-known filmic 'Shakespeares', which encompass cinema advertisements, appropriations, post-colonial reinventions and mass media citations, and which move across and between genres and mediums.
Arguing that Shakespeare is a magnet for negotiations about style, value and literary authority, the essays contend that screen reinterpretations of England's most famous dramatist simultaneously address concerns centred upon nationality and ethnicity, gender and romance, and 'McDonaldisation' and the political process, thereby constituting an important intervention in the debates of the new century. As a result, through consideration of such offerings as the derry Film Initiative Hamlet, the New Zealand The Maori Merchant of Venice and the television documentary In Search of Shakespeare, this collection isa able to assess as never before the continuing relevance of Shakepseare in his local and global screen incarnations. -BOOK JACKETNotes: "Early versions of some of these chapters were given as papers at the Newcastle-upon-Tyne meeting of the British Shakespeare Association" -- Acknowledgements; Includes index; Formerly CIP; Includes bibliographical references and indexISBN: 0748623515Donation: Donated by Senses Of Cinema, 2009Contents: 'If I'm right' : Michael Wood's In search of Shakespeare / Richard Dutton -- 'I see my father' in 'my mind's eye' : surveillance and the filmic Hamlet / Mark Thornton Burnett -- Backstage pass(ing) : Stage beauty, Othello and the make-up of race / Richard Burt -- The postnostalgic Renaissance : the 'place' of Liverpool in Don Boyd's My kingdom / Courtney Lehmann -- Our Shakespeares : British television and the strains of multiculturalism / Susanne Greenhalgh, Robert Shaughnessy -- Looking for Shylock : Stephen Greenblatt, Michael Radford and Al Pacino / Samuel Crowl -- Speaking Ma¯ori Shakespeare : The Maori merchant of Venice and the legacy of colonisation / Catherine Silverstone -- 'Into a thousand parts divide one man' : dehumanised metafiction and fragmented documentary in Peter Babakitis' Henry V / Sarah Hatchuel -- Screening the McShakespeare in post-millennial Shakespeare cinema / Carolyn Jess-Cooke -- Shakespeare and the singletons, or, Beatrice meets Bridget Jones : post-feminism, popular culture and 'Shakespea(re)-told' / Ramona Wray.

Paula Rabinowitz discusses the ways in which these four media shaped truth-claims and political agency over the decades: in the 1930s about poverty, labor and popular culture during the depression; in the 1960s, about the Vietnam War, racism, work and the counterculture; and in the 1980s, about feminist and gay critiques of gender, history, narrative and cinema...Rabinowitz argues that the gendering ov vision that occurs when narratives conform to conventional genres profoundly affects the relation of documentarian to subject. She goes on to define this gendering of vision in documentary as an ethnographic process. Ultimately, this polemical study challenges the construction of the spectato in psychoanalytic film theory, and articulates a new model for theorizing power relations in culture and history." -- taken from back cover.Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 221-251) and indexISBN: 1859849253; 1859840256 (pbk.)LON: bnc85984925; 11201643URL status: URL: 'http://-'
