Actors mingle and clash in the best possible lighting, and conversation is fraught with wit and emotion. The director usually gets the bulk of the credit. But before he or she can play the consummate host, someone must carefully select the right guests, send out the invites, and keep track of the RSVPs”. ‘OSCARS: The Role Of Casting Director’ by Monica Corcoran Harel, The Deadline Team, December 6, 2012 Playing one of the key roles in creating that successful “dinner” is the Casting Director, but someone who is often over-looked in the recognition department. Everyone sees the actor at work, but very few people see the hours of research, the intrinsic skills, the gut instinct that the Casting Director puts into finding just the right person for just the right role. It’s a mix of routine and inspiration which brings the characters we come to love, and sometimes to hate, to the big screen. The Casting Director’s delicate work as liaison between director, actors, their agent/manager and the studio/network figures prominently in decisions which can make or break a project. It’s a job that can't garner an Oscar, but its mighty importance is always felt behind the scenes. In July 2013, the Academy of Motion Pictures of Arts and Sciences (AMPAS) created a new branch for Casting Directors, and we are thrilled that a number of members of the International Casting Directors Network are amongst the first Casting Directors invited into the Academy.

    CHELLO BROADBAND SERVICE LAUNCH REVOLUTIONISES EUROPEAN SubmittedINTERNET by: Edelman USE Ltd Tuesday, 23 March 1999 New portal features introduced as chello service goes live in 5 European countries Amsterdam, 23 March 1999, At a worldwide media launch today, chello broadband n.v (chello) - Europe's leading broadband internet service provider, and operating company of recently floated United Pan-Europe Communications N.V. (UPC) - unveiled its innovative new portal design, exclusive broadband access features, along with details of its service available in five European countries. The keenly anticipated first look was premiered by chello's newly assembled top management team including Mark Schneider (chairman, chello broadband n.v. and chairman/CEO of chello's parent company UPC), Iain Osborne (chello managing director, marketing, sales and portal) and Sudhir Ispahani (chello managing director technology and operations). "The key to chello's success is its ability to take the most cutting edge complex technology and use it to make internet access easier than ever before," says Mark Schneider, chairman, chello broadband n.v. and CEO/chairman UPC. "Our world class technology team has developed AORTA, Europe's first broadband network and the largest European caching distributed service. The technology chello has implemented means that AORTA will always have the bandwidth capacity to provide customers with a fast reliable service." chello vision, a revolutionary new user interface, shown today, is a TV remote control on the computer screen which allows users to navigate the internet as easily as they can a television. chello vision's 3D remote control travels with users as they journey through chello's extensive information channels and makes scrolling up and down pages to find information obsolete.

  • 4 Competition and Access
    Next Generation Connectivity 4 Competition and access This part and the two that follow it review the core policies and practices of other countries, and evaluate whether we can conclude that one or another policy intervention contributed to a country's broadband performance. These policies and practices fall into the two major categories of government action: regulation and public spending. They are focused on improving either the supply of, or the demand for, ubiquitous connectivity, or on assuring equitable access to the technological capabilities of the digitally networked environment. On the supply side, governments spend and invest in infrastructure or tailor their regulatory action so as to improve competition in telecommunications markets while preserving investment incentives. On the demand side, governments mostly spend improve skills, subsidize equipment and services, or act as buyers. In our review, we found that a central aspect of policy has been the effort to foster competition in an imperfect and difficult market. This was true of the first broadband transition, and is at the center of many planning efforts for the next generation transition. Fostering competition entailed a shift from older-style regulated monopoly structures to a system that deploys its regulatory power to lower entry barriers by requiring open access to hard-to-replicate infrastructure elements. Both the degree to which national regulators were engaged and effective relative to usually recalcitrant incumbents, and the degree to which regulators emphasized protecting entrants appear to have been important. In wireless markets, the lessons are murkier. There are countries that have done well with policies that “should” not have worked—beauty contests or small numbers of allocations—and countries that have done poorly even though they acted early and auctioned four or five dedicated 3G licenses with adequate spectrum.
