Chion expands on the arguments from his influential trilogy on sound in cinema -- La voix au cinema, Le son au cinema, and La toile trouvee -- while providing an overview of the functions and aesthetics of sound in film and television. He considers the effects of evolving audiovisual technologies such as widescreen, multitrack sound, and Dolby stereo on audio-vision, influences of sound on the perception of space and time, and contemporary forms of audio-vision embodied in music videos, video art, and commercial television. His final chapter presents a model fo audiovisual analysis of film" -- Back coverNotes: Includes bibliographical references p.

The technique of documentary film production / by W. Hugh Baddeley ; with a preface by Paul Rotha London: Focal Press, 1975.
Call No: 761 BADAuthor: Baddeley, Hugh W. Edition: 4th rev. edPlace: LondonPublisher: Focal PressPubDate: 1975PhysDes: 282 p. : ill. ; 23 cmSeries: The library of communication techniquesSubject: BUDGETING ; CAMERAS ; CINEMATOGRAPHY ; DISTRIBUTION ; DOCUMENTARIES ; DOCUMENTARY FILMS ; EDITING ; FILMMAKING ; INSURANCE, FILM ; LIGHTING ; LOCATION FINDING ; LOCATION SHOOTING ; MUSIC AND THE CINEMA ; PRE-PRODUCTION ; POST-PRODUCTION ; PRODUCTION ; PRODUCTION COSTS ; SCRIPTWRITING ; SOUNDTRACKS ; SOUND EDITING ; SOUND RECORDING Summary: "Hugh Baddeley has carried out further revisions of this book since the last edition which he enlarged by nearly forty pages. 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://-'

Understanding sound tracks through film theory / by Elsie Walker New York: Oxford University Press, c2015.
Call No: 634 WALAuthor: Walker, Elsie Source: UK/USPlace: New YorkPublisher: Oxford University PressPubDate: c2015PhysDes: ix, 435 pages : illustrations ; 26 cmSubject: SOUND ; SOUND TRACKS ; SOUNDTRACKS ; THEORY ; PSYCHOANALYSIS AND THE CINEMA ; FEMINISM AND THE CINEMA ; GENRES ; IMPERIALISM AND THE CINEMA ; HOMOSEXUALITY AND THE CINEMA ; HOMOSEXUALITY IN FILMS ; SEARCHERS, THE (US, John Ford, 1956) ; DEAD MAN (US, Jim Jarmusch, 1995) ; RABBIT-PROOF FENCE (AT, Phillip Noyce, 2001) ; TEN CANOES (AT, Rolf De Heer, 2006) ; TO HAVE AND HAVE NOT (US, Howard Hawks, 1944) ; PIANO, THE (AT, Jane Campion, 1993) ; SHUTTER ISLAND (US, Martin Scorsese, 2010) ; REBECCA (US, Alfred Hitchcock, 1940) ; HEAVENLY CREATURES (NZ, Peter Jackson, 1994) ; BIGGER THAN LIFE (US, Nicholas Ray, 1956) Summary: "Understanding Sound Tracks Through Film Theory breaks new ground by redirecting the arguments of foundational texts within film theory to film sound tracks. Walker includes sustained analyses of particular films according to a range of theoretical approaches: psychoanalysis, feminism, genre studies, post-colonialism, and queer theory. The films come from disparate temporal and industrial contexts: from Classical Hollywood Gothic melodrama (Rebecca) to contemporary, critically-acclaimed science fiction (Gravity). Along with sound tracks from canonical American films including The Searchers and To Have and Have Not, Walker analyzes independent Australasian films: examples include Heavenly Creatures, a New Zealand film that uses music to empower its queer female protagonists; and Ten Canoes, the first Australian feature film with a script entirely in Aboriginal languages. Understanding Sound Tracks Through Film Theory thus not only calls new attention to the significance of sound tracks, but also focuses on the sonic power of characters representing those whose voices have all too often been drowned out.
Understanding Sound Tracks Through Film Theory is both rigorous and accessible to all students and scholars with a grasp of cinematic and musical structures. Moreover, the book brings together film studies, musicology, history, politics, and culture and therefore resonates across the liberal arts." -- BOOK BLURBNotes: Formerly CIP; Includes bibliographical references, filmography (page 419) and index; Includes filmographyISBN: 9780199896325Donation: Oxford University PressContents: -- acknowledgments -- general introduction -- pt.
