AUSTRALIA; GOVERNMENT AID. AUSTRALIA; GOVERNMENT CONTROL, TV. AUSTRALIA; GOVERNMENT ORGANIZATIONS. AUSTRALIA; LAW AND TV. AUSTRALIA; LEGISLATION. AUSTRALIA; PROGRAMME CONTENT. AUSTRALIA; PUBLIC BROADCASTING. AUSTRALIA; SPECIAL BROADCASTING SERVICE; STATE AND THE CINEMA. AUSTRALIA Summary: "The life and works of 'Aunty', the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, continue to be the subject of public debate and often heated controversy, but they are seldom analysed in any depth. In this book Glyn Davis sets out to take the ABC apart, layer by layer, to reveal the contradictions in purpose and form which bedevil Australia's public broadcasting network. Emphasising the interplay between the ABC and its social and political context, Breaking Up the ABC subjects the recent internal reforms to careful scrutiny. Will these reforms end 'Aunty's' perennial difficulties? Or is the organisation doomed to permanent crisis? Can the corporation, as David Hill hopes, win back an audience and the political support crucial to its continuing existence? Having broken up the institution, how should the pieces be rearranged? This book offers new combinations to ensure the continuing viability of public broadcasting in Australia."--BOOK BLURB Notes: Includes list of abbreviations, bibliographic references and index -- cover illustration and design by John Windus ISBN: 0043370047 Donation: Donated by Mike Counihan More info

EUROPEAN COUNTRIES; UNITED KINGDOM : SCOTLAND; INDONESIA; POLAND; TURKEY; INDIA; GERMANY; STATE AND THE CINEMA; CAPRA, FRANK Summary: Leading film scholars, philosophers and sociologists consider the ways in which film production and reception are shaped by ideas of national identity and belonging. The contributors discuss a wide range of cinemas, in Europe, Asia and the Americas, exploring the relationship between nation states for both the concept and the reality of national cinema. In the book’s first three sections, contributors explore sociological approaches to national identity, challenge established ideas about ‘national cinema’, and consider the ways in which national states – from the former Soviet Union to Contemporary Scotland – use cinema in their efforts to create a national cinema, and consider how images of the nation are understood by audiences both at home and abroad.

journal article		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: Article Subject: 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 More info

"The purpose of this Bill is to create a new statutory authority to be responsible for Government activities relating to the production and distribution of film in Victoria including film produced for educational purposes. The new organisation to be known as Film Victoria will be established by amalgamating the Victorian Film Corporation, the State Film Centre, and sections of the Audio-Visual Resources Branch of the Education Department. As a result, the unnecessary duplication of functions by the organisations will be avoided and the capacity of the Government to meet the present and future media needs of Victorians will be enhanced." - PURPOSE OF THE BILL More info

journal article		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: Article Subject: 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 More info

journal article		Sweet dreams : Queensland, sugar and the 1927 Royal Commission into the Moving Picture Industry in Studies in Australasian Cinema (2011) vol.5 iss.2 p.107 - 119 Author: Delamoir, Jeannette PhysDes: Article Subject: AUSTRALIA. 1895-1930; AUSTRALIA. 1927-1932; EXHIBITION. AUSTRALIA; INDUSTRY, FILM. AUSTRALIA; NATIONAL IDENTITY AND THE CINEMA. AUSTRALIA; STATE AND THE CINEMA. AUSTRALIA Summary: This article looks at how the 1927 Royal commission grappled with the financial viability of the local industry in a global marketplace. It examines the relationships between government support, cultural production, cultural consumption and national indentity Notes: 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 More info

journal article		When it all started : Politics and policies of the Australian film industry from the revival to the international breakthrough in Studies in Australasian cinema (2011) vol.5 iss.1 p.43-57 Author: Formica, Serena PhysDes: Article Subject: STATE AND THE CINEMA. AUSTRALIA; HISTORY OF CINEMA. AUSTRALIA; INDUSTRY, FILM. AUSTRALIA; AUSTRALIAN FILM COMMISSION Summary: In the late 1960s, the Australian film industry was in crisis: audiences were turning to television programmes, in part because they offered more Australian content, and the commercially successful screen comedies of the so-called Ocker were perceived to be damaging the image of Australia abroad. In the 1970s, realizing the potential of cinema as a cultural flagship, the government invested heavily in the film industry through the establishment of the Australian Film Commission (AFC) for the purpose of promoting of high-quality productions. This article examines the main polices of the AFC, and argues that its role in transforming the film industry from a ‘cottage industry into a business’ (Murray 1990: 14) has been overestimated by Australian cinema scholars such as Dermody and Jacka, David Stratton and Tom O'Regan. The AFC's role as a government body meant that the Commission was more accountable to the government than to film industry professionals, such as producers and filmmakers. The final section of this article examines the producers' reactions to the AFC's policies, and argues that their role within the revival of the Australian film industry has been overlooked and, possibly, underestimated. -- Abstract More info
