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

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

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?

Ephemeral media : Transitory screen culture from television to YouTube / Paul Grainge Houndsmill, Basingstoke, Hampshire ; New York: Palgrave Macmillan, 2011.
Call No: 77 EPHAuthor: Grainge, Paul, 1972 - Place: Houndsmill, Basingstoke, Hampshire ; New YorkPublisher: Palgrave MacmillanPubDate: 2011PhysDes: viii, 236 pages : illustrations ; 24 cm.Subject: CONVERGENCE ; INTERNET AND THE CINEMA ; INTERNET AND TV ; SOCIAL MEDIA AND THE CINEMA ; ONLINE VIDEO PROGRAMMING ; COMPUTERIZED ANIMATION AND SPECIAL EFFECTS ; COMPUTERS AND THE CINEMA ; YOUTUBE ; ADVERTISING Summary: "From the television interstitials that appear between programmes to the brief clips and videos that proliferate on YouTube, contemporary screen culture is populated by short-forms that make claims for our attention. Ephemeral Media provides a unique focus on these fleeting but increasingly ubiquitous texts. Through case studies in television and web entertainment, this original book looks at the production of media at the edges, within the junctions, and that surround the output of networks and studios. Analyzing promos and idents, emergent forms of online TV and web drama, and the burgeoning world of worker- and user-generated content, this new collection also examines screen forms that circulate "between," "beyond" and "below" the TV programs and films traditionally privileged within screen studies. With essays by leading international scholars in television, film and new media studies, as well as interviews with key industry figures, Ephemeral Media explores the practices, strategies and textual forms helping producers (and viewers) negotiate a fast-paced mediascape. Examining dynamics of brevity and evanescence in the television and new media environment, Ephemeral Media provides a new perspective on the transitory, and transitional, nature of screen culture in the early 21st century"-- BlurbNotes: Formerly CIP.

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.

Though much of Hollywood's engagement with the law occurs offstage, in the larger theater of copyright, many of Hollywood's valued treasures - from Modern Times (1936) to Star Wars (1977) - cannot be fully understood without appreciating their legal controversies. Peter Decherney shows that the history of intellectual property in Hollywood has not always mirrored the evolution of the law and recounts these extralegal solutions and their impact on American media and culture." - BOOK BLURBNotes: Contains list of illustrations and indexISBN: 9780231159470

AUSTRALIA Summary: Australia's television networks should trade attention instead of the cost of reaching a thousand people, says Multi Channel Network chief executive Anthony Fitzgerald as advertisers divert bigger chunks of their budgets to digital video. Google's YouTube and Facebook have been some of the biggest beneficiaries of advertisers shifting spending from TV to chase viewers who have migrated to online video, but networks are failing to exploit the ad backlash against the tech giants, Mr Fitzgerald told Media.

The Oxford handbook of new audiovisual aesthetics / edited by John Richardson, Claudia Gorbman, Carol Vernallis New York: Oxford University Press, c2013.
Call No: 220 OXFAuthor: Richardson, John ; Gorbman, Claudia ; Vernallis, Carol Source: USPlace: New YorkPublisher: Oxford University PressPubDate: c2013PhysDes: Oxford University PressSubject: TECHNOLOGY AND THE CINEMA ; TECHNOLOGICAL DEVELOPMENTS ; TECHNICAL DEVELOPMENTS ; TECHNOLOGY AND TV ; INTERNET ; INTERNET AND THE CINEMA ; INTERNET AND TV ; YOUTUBE ; AESTHETICS ; ANIMATION ; MULTIMEDIA ; SOUND REPRODUCTION ; MEDIA ; SOUND Summary: This book offers new ways to read the audiovisual. In the media landscapes of today, conglomerates jockey for primacy and the internet increasingly places media in the hands of individuals - producing the range of phenomena from movie blockbuster to YouTube aesthetics. Media forms and genres are proliferating and interpenetrating, from movies, music and other entertainments streaming on computers and iPods to video games and wireless phones. The audiovisual environment of everyday life, too - from street to stadium to classroom - would at times be hardly recognizable to the mid-twentieth-century subject. This book provides a definitive cross-section of current ways of thinking about sound and image. Its authors - leading scholars and promising younger ones, audiovisual practitioners and non-academic writers (both mainstream and independent) - open the discussion on audiovisual aesthetics in new directions. Our contributors come from fields including film, visual arts, new media, cultural theory, and sound and music studies, and they draw variously from economic, political, institutional, psychoanalytic, genre-based, auteurist, internationalist, reception-focused, technological, and cultural approaches to questions concerning today's sound and image.Notes: Includes bibliographical references and index.ISBN: 9780199733866Contents: Introduction / John Richardson and Claudia Gorbman -- Theoretical pressure points -- Classical music for the posthuman condition / Lawrence Kramer -- Beyond music: mashup, multimedia mentality, and intellectual property / Nicholas Cook -- The audio-logo-visual and the sound of languages in recent film / Michel Chion -- The end of diegesis as we know it? / Anahid Kassabian -- Sounding out film / Steven Connor -- Narrative, genre, meaning: changing times, changing practices -- Audio-visual space in an era of technological convergence / Robynn J.

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

Quality popular television : Cult TV, the industry and fans / Mark Jancovich & James Lyons (eds) London UK: bfi Publishing, 2003.
Call No: 725.3 JANCorpAuthor: BFI PublishingPlace: London UKPublisher: bfi PublishingPubDate: 2003PhysDes: 23 cm, 204 ppSubject: NBC TELEVISION NETWORK ; TELEVISION. UK ; ELLEN [TV] (US, 1995-) ; STAR TREK - THE NEXT GENERATION [TV] (US, 1987-1994) ; BUFFY THE VAMPIRE SLAYER [TV] (US, 1997-2004) ; VIOLENCE ON TV ; INTERNET AND TV Summary: Why are some contemporary television shows so compelling? The Sopranos, Buffy the Vampire Slayer, Friends and ER are examples among many of a new era of the 'must-see' programme. These shows and others like The X-Files and Ally McBeal, have a compulsiveness, a depth of characterisation and 'back-story' that puts much of mainstream cinema to shame. Quality Popular Television examines this new category of mostly US-Produced 'cult' television and the reasons for its emergence. Looking at shows as diverse as Ally McBeak, Martial Law, Buffy, Lois and Clark, Star Trek: The Next Generation and Ellen, the book identifies the particular qualities necessary for success and how they relate to issues such as the economics of network scheduling, the growth of the internet and contemporary debates about television audiences.

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 --

In a little over a decade, competing social media platforms, including YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Snapchat, have given rise to a new creative industry: social media entertainment. Operating at the intersection of the entertainment and interactivity, communication and content industries, social media entertainment creators have harnessed these platforms to generate new kinds of content separate from the century-long model of intellectual property control in the traditional entertainment industry.
Social media entertainment has expanded rapidly and the traditional entertainment industry has been forced to cede significant power and influence to content creators, their fans, and subscribers. Digital platforms have created a natural market for embedded advertising, changing the worlds of marketing and communication in their wake. Combined, these factors have produced new, radically shifting demands on the entertainment industry, posing new challenges for screen regimes, media scholars, industry professionals, content creators, and audiences alike.
Stuart Cunningham and David Craig chronicle the rise of social media entertainment and its impact on media consumption and production. A massive, industry-defining study with insight from over 100 industry insiders, Social Media Entertainment explores the latest transformations in the entertainment industry in this time of digital disruption." -- book blurbNotes: Includes bibliography, index, notesISBN: 9781479846894Contents: 1.

Whether your favorite YouTube video is a cat on a Roomba, Gangnam Style, the Bed Intruder song, an ASAPscience explainer, Rebecca Black's Friday, or the Evolution of Dance, Kevin Allocca's Videocracy reveals how these beloved videos and famous trends--and many more--came to be and why they mean more than you might think. YouTube is the biggest pool of cultural data since the beginning of recorded communication, with four hundred hours of video uploaded every minute. (It would take you more than sixty-five years just to watch to watch the vlogs, music videos, tutorials, and other content posted in a single day!) This activity reflects who we are, in all our glory and ignominy. As Allocca says, if aliens wanted to understand our planet, he'd give them Google. If they wanted to understand us, he'd give them YouTube. In Videocracy, Allocca lays bare what YouTube videos say about our society and how our actions online--watching, sharing, commenting on, and remixing the people and clips that captivate us--are changing the face of entertainment, advertising, politics, and more. Via YouTube, we are fueling social movements, enforcing human rights, and redefining art--a lot more than you'd expect from a bunch of viral clips.Notes: Includes bibliographical references (pages 308-323) and index.ISBN: 9781408880272
