At the picture show : small-town audiences and the creation of movie fan culture / Kathryn H. Fuller London: University Press of Virginia, 1996.
Call No: 410.1:465.2 FULAuthor: Fuller, Kathryn H. Source: US/UKPlace: Charlottesville; LondonPublisher: University Press of VirginiaPubDate: 1996PhysDes: 248 p. : 23 cmSubject: AUDIENCE RECEPTION ; AUDIENCES ; AUDIENCES USA ; FAN MAGAZINES ; EXHIBITION ; EXHIBITION. USA ; EXHIBITION OF SILENT FILMS ; NICKELODEON Summary: Although the transformation of the movies into big-time entertainment had multiple sources, Kathryn Fuller argues that ultimately the maturation of the film industry depended on the support of both urban and rural middle-class audiences. Providing the fullest portrait to date of the small-town audience’s hanging habits and desires, At the Picture Show demonstrates for the first time how a fan culture emerged in the United States, and it enriches our understanding of mass media’s relationship to early twentieth-century American society.

Audiences : defining and researching screen entertainment reception / edited by Ian Christie Amsterdam: Amsterdam University Press, 2012. Available at OAPEN (open access)
Call No: 410.3 AUDPlace: AmsterdamPublisher: Amsterdam University PressPubDate: 2012PhysDes: 332 pages : illustrations ; 23 cm.Series: Key debates ; 3.Subject: AUDIENCE RECEPTION ; AUDIENCE RESEARCH ; AUDIENCES ; SOCIETY AND THE CINEMA ; EXHIBITION ; BOX OFFICE Summary: "This timely volume engages with one of the most important shifts in recent film studies: the turn away from text-based analysis towards the viewer. Historically, this marks a return to early interest in the effect of film on the audience by psychoanalysts and psychologists, which was overtaken by concern with the 'effects' of film, linked to calls for censorship and moral panics rather than to understanding the mental and behavioral world of the spectator. Early cinema history has revealed the diversity of film-viewing habits, while traditional 'box office' studies, which treated the audience initially as a homogeneous market, have been replaced by the study of individual consumers and their motivations. Latterly, there has been a marked turn towards more sophisticated economic and sociological analysis of attendance data. And as the film experience fragments across multiple formats, the perceptual and cognitive experience of the individual viewer (who is also an auditor) has become increasingly accessible. With contributions from Gregory Waller, John Sedgwick and Martin Barker, this work spans the spectrum of contemporary audience studies, revealing work being done on local, non-theatrical and live digital transmission audiences, and on the relative attraction of large-scale, domestic and mobile platforms."--Publisher's website.Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. 279-298) and indexes.ISBN: 9789089643629Contents: Introduction: in search of audiences / Ian Christie -- pt. 1.

AUSTRALIA ; SOCIETY AND THE CINEMA Summary: "This is the first book to offer an in-depth examination of the history, operation, and growth of film festivals as a cultural phenomenon within Australia. Tracing the birth of film festivals in Australia in the 1950s through to their present abundance, it asks why film festivals have prospered as audience-driven spectacles throughout Australia, while never developing the same industry and market foci of their international fellows. Drawing on over sixty-years of archival records, festival commentary, interviews with festival insiders and ephemera, this book opens up a largely uncharted history of film culture activity in Australia.

Beyond the multiplex : cinema, new technologies, and the home / Barbara Klinger Berkeley: University of California Press, 2006.

This is the first full-length study of how contemporary entertainment technologies and media - from cable television and VHS to DVD and the Internet - shape our encounters with the movies and affect the aesthetic, cultural, and ideological definitions of cinema. Barbara Klinger explores topics such as home theater, film collecting, classic Hollywood movie reruns, repeat viewings, and Internet film parodies, providing a multifaceted view of the presentation and reception of films in U.S. households. Balancing industry history with theoretical and cultural analysis, she finds that today's cinema's powerful social presence cannot be fully grasped without considering its prolific recycling in post-theatrical venues - especially the home."--BOOK BLURBNotes: Formerly CIP.; Includes bibliographical references (p. 281-287) and indexISBN: 9780520245860Contents: The new media aristocrats: home theater and the film experience -- The contemporary cinephile: film collecting after the VCR -- Remembrance of films past: cable television and classic Hollywood cinema -- Once is not enough: the functions and pleasures of repeat viewings -- To infinity and beyond: the Web short, parody, and remediation -- Conclusion: of fortresses and film cultures

Cinema, community and policy : contexts and pretexts for the Regional Cinema Program in New South Wales, Australia in Studies in Australasian cinema (2007) vol.1 iss.3 p.377-394
Author: Crowe, Karen PhysDes: ArticleSubject: REGIONAL EXHIBITION. AUSTRALIA ; CINEMAS. AUSTRALIA. STATE (NSW) ; AUDIENCES. AUSTRALIA ; STATE AND THE CINEMA. AUSTRALIA. NEW SOUTH WALES Summary: This article examines developments relating to regional cinema-going in the Australian state of New South Wales (NSW). It draws on research whose primary case studies comprise four campaigns to revitalize historic cinema spaces in country towns in NSW and the introduction in the late 1990s of a Regional Cinema Program (RCP) designed to promote and support such activity in that state. It examines some of the historic and political contexts that precipitated these projects and the adoption of their concerns by the NSW state government and will consider how claims for the social importance of cinema-going have been reflected and constructed through the practices and discourses of policy-making and place-making. In particular, the essay traces the adoption of regional cinema access as a policy concern of the NSW state government and the aspirations and operations of a ‘community cinema’ in the south-western NSW town of Tumut. In focusing on this case study the article explores the interconnected relationship between trends in social and cultural policy-making, rural revitalization, the social experience of cinema-going and their various roles in the complex and contested construction of a sense of ‘community’. -- Abstract

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

Exploiting the regional Queensland audience : Birch Carroll and Coyle's Wintergarden theatres, 1925-35 in Studies in Australasian cinema (2007) vol.1 iss.3 p.333-351
Author: Cryle, Denis ; Johansen, Grace PhysDes: ArticleSubject: BIRCH CARROLL AND COYLE ; AUDIENCES. AUSTRALIA ; EXHIBITION. AUSTRALIA ; REGIONAL EXHIBITION. AUSTRALIA ; HISTORY OF CINEMA. AUSTRALIA ; ADVERTISING FOR FILMS. AUSTRALIA Summary: The authors examine the first decade of the Birch Carroll and Coyle consortium, focusing on its regional Wintergarden theatre chain and on its stated objective of bringing metropolitan sophistication to regional centres, in a period of industry optimism which coincided with the construction of its Wintergarden theatres throughout Queensland. The article draws on local print sources and interview material in order to explain and confirm the social appeal of cinema-going across a range of regional sites. The exploitation campaigns organized and coordinated by Birch Carroll and Coyle's regional and state managers in the midst of moral opposition, government regulation and press criticism, both before and after the advent of the talkies, is examined. Drawing extensively from industry journals of the period, the authors argue that press publicity, along with local stunts and staged events, formed an integral part of Birch Carroll and Coyle's concerted strategy to sell its Hollywood product and offset ongoing criticism within government and local communities. In conclusion, they examine the impact of the Depression on the industry in Queensland, including regional audiences, and assess its impact on Birch Carroll and Coyle's subsequent regional theatre publicity campaigns. -- Abstract

Harbord argues that the space in which we view films, whether it be a multiplex, an art house or our own home, as well as the way in which we view them, as either singular objects or hypertexts linked to an almost infinite variety of other products, connects us to a particular film culture. Shifting the focus of film analysis from the text to the paths of circulation, Film cultures invites us to explore the ways in which film connects us to specific social, national, and global networks."Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p. [164]-176) and indexISBN: 0761965211Contents: Introduction - Chapter 1 Breaking with the aura?

SMITH GOES TO WASHINGTON (US, Frank Capra, 1939) ; FACE IN THE CROWD, A (US, Elia Kazan, 1957) 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.Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.ISBN: 9780226593692Contents: Introduction.

CHINA ; WOMEN IN FILMS. HONG KONG ; ASIAN COUNTRIES ; EXHIBITION. CHINA ; PRODUCTION ASIA ; ENG ESTHER Summary: Starting with the first “Western shadow plays” shown in the late 1890s, motion pictures have played a significant role in China’s cultural existence for more than a century. Initially centered in Shanghai, Chinese cinema boomed in Hong Kong in the 1930s, aided by the advent of talkies and the influx of talent and investment from mainland China, Southeast Asia, and America. From the late 1940s, Hong Kong supplanted Shanghai as the “Hollywood of China”. In Hong Kong Cinema: A Cross-Cultural View, authors Law Kar and Frank Bren follow the story from Hong Kong’s early silent, Chuang Tsi Tests His Wife, through the martial arts craze of the 1970s, to the medium’s continued appeal for contemporary international audiences. Rather than provide a sweeping history, the authors focus on the impact of individual personalities, particularly local filmmakers and movie stars. They also consider Eastern and Western influences and examine major developments, including the changing role of women. By profiling key figures and events of the 20th century, this overview is the perfect introduction for anyone interested in Hong Kong’s contribution to world cinema.

This new medium developed rapidly into a popular form of entertainment thanks to new technology, artistic ingenuity and creative entrepreneurship. The film industry could grow in part because of passionate businessmen like Jean Desmet (1875-1956), who rose from fairground showman to become one of the most important cinema exhibitors and film distributors in the Netherlands. This publication pays tribute to Jean Desmet the entrepreneur and pioneer, and especially to the films he screened. Films from the second decade of the last century surprise today’s audiences with their original imaginative power, uninhibited vision and inventive use of film techniques. The visual refinement of many of these films makes them both artistic and modern." -- BACK COVER BLURBNotes: Published on the occasion of the exhibition Jean Desmet's Dream Factory: the adventurous years of film (1907-1916) during 13 December 2014-12 April 2015 in Eye Filmmuseum in Amsterdam.; Includes bibliographical references (page 190)ISBN: 9789462081741Donation: Senses of CinemaContents: -- in our sight , in our mind / Sandra den Hamer -- Jean Desmet's Dream Factory The Adventurous Years of Film (1907-1916) / Jaap Guldemond --

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

INDIA ; EXHIBITION. INDIA ; MULTIPLEX CINEMAS. INDIA ; SOCIETY AND THE CINEMA. INDIA Summary: During the decade of its existence in India, the multiplex cinema has been very much a sign of the times - both a stmptom of new social values. Indicative of a consistent push to create a 'globalised' consuming middle class and a new urban environment, multiplex theatres have thus become key sites in the long-running struggle over cultural legitimacy and the right to public space in Indian cities.
This book provides the reader with a comprehensive account of the new leisure infrasructure arising at the intersection between contemporary trends in cultural practice and the spational politics that are reshaping the cities of India. Exploring the significance, and convergence, of economic liberalisation, urban redevelopment and the media explosion in India, the book demonstrates an innovative approach towards the cultural and political economy of leisure in a complex and rapidly changing society.Notes: Includes bibliographical references (p.[225]-238) and indexISBN: 9780414533591Contents: 1. Situating the multiplex as a research object -- 2. From cinema hall to multiplex : a public history -- 3. Film exhibition and the economic logic of the multiplex -- 4. India poised : assessing the geography of opportunity -- 5. Location and lifestyle : the infrastructure of urban leisure -- 6. Spatial politics of the multiplex : an environmental model -- 7.

AUSTRALIA ; EXHIBITION ; INDUSTRY, FILM ; INDUSTRY, FILM. 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

It examines the relationships between government support, cultural production, cultural consumption and national indentityNotes: The impetus for the 1927 Royal Commission into the Moving Picture Industry was the US film companies' `stranglehold' on the Australian film industry, the effects of which were perceived as undermining both Australian film businesses and Australian national identity. The Commissioners took evidence in seven Queensland towns, some quite small and isolated, with almost all exhibitors from these locations represented. This evidence constructs an in-depth picture of film business and consumption in regional Australia, as well as a social, cultural and economic portrait of the country on the cusp of the Great Depression. This article takes as its starting point the Commissioners' repeated comparison of the film industry and Queensland's sugar industry, and their suggestions that the film industry's problems could be solved by replicating the intervention and support given to the sugar industry by both State and Federal Governments. These references, the article argues, reveal the Commissioners' understanding of the film industry, and conjectures that these conceptualizations may still influence the way Australian films are watched today -- Abstract

Twice born : Dionysos Films and the establishment of a Greek film circuit in Australia in Studies in Australasian cinema (2007) vol.1 iss.1 p.275-298
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

Video cassette revolution : The VCR in Australia / Michael Nugent Sydney, N.S.W.: Macquarie University, 2014.
Call No: 410.82 NUGAuthor: Nugent, Michael CorpAuthor: Macquarie UniversitySource: ATPlace: Sydney, N.S.W.Publisher: Macquarie UniversityPubDate: 2014PhysDes: 59 pages ; 30 cmSubject: VIDEO RECORDERS ; VIDEO, FILMS ON. AUSTRALIA ; VIEWERS. AUSTRALIA ; HOME EXHIBITION. AUSTRALIA ; HOME EQUIPMENT ; HOME VIDEO. AUSTRALIA Summary: "This thesis is to serve as a history of the Video Cassette Recorder (VCR) in Australia. It has been done because while there are numerous histories relating to other aspects of Australian media, the history of the VCR itself remains little more than an aspect of narratives focused on other phenomena. This was done through extensive examination of discursive sources, such as popular magazines, newspapers and trade journals. By reading these publications over the course of several years, I have been able to identify several trends unfolding over time, noting how popular conceptions of the technology have changed. By comparing these with work done on the history of home video in other countries, it allows for a greater understanding of what is unique to Australia’s history with the VCR. Perhaps the most significant finding is that the idea of what a VCR can offer is perpetually changing. What began as a simple means to record and playback programmes from television broadcasts quickly became a key part of commercial film distribution fundamentally altered the way in which people experience their television sets. As such, a struggle for position by producers, distributors and consumers erupted, as it irrevocably changed media in Australia."

Over the last 30 years, promotional films for bands have developed into a very influential cultural form, affecting film, advertising and, more generally, the pace and rhythm of visual culture. Today, the exploratory edges of music video reveal many intersections between visual artists and commercial videodirectors.
