  • Global Cities, Local Knowledge
    Formatting and Change in East Asian Television Industries: Media Globalization and Regional Dynamics Lim, Wei Ling Tania Patricia BSocSc (Hons), MSc (Media & Comms) Creative Industries Research and Applications Centre Queensland University of Technology Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy 2005 Keywords Circuit of cultural production, East Asian popular culture, Television industries, Field of broadcasting, Formatting, Local knowledge, Media capitals, Neo-networks, Regional dynamics, TV Formats, martial arts dramas, teenage idol soap operas, game-shows. ii Abstract Television is increasingly both global and local. Those television industries discussed in this thesis transact in an extensive neo-network of flows in talents, financing, and the latest forms of popular culture. These cities attempt to become media capitals but their status waxes and wanes, depending on their success in exporting their Asian media productions. What do marital arts dramas, interactive game-shows, children’s animation and teenage idol soap operas from East Asian television industries have in common? Through the systematic use of TV formatting strategies, these television genres have become the focus for indigenous cultural entrepreneurs located in the East Asian cities of Hong Kong, Singapore and Taipei to turn their local TV programmes into tradable culture. This thesis is a re-consideration of the impact of media globalisation on Asian television that re-imagines a new global media order. It suggests that there is a growing shift in perception and trade among once-peripheral television industries that they may be slowly de-centring Hollywood’s dominance by inserting East Asian popular entertainment into familiar formats or cultural spaces through embracing global yet local cultures of production.

Aside from highlighting the roles of technological and com- mercial factors behind the regional music networks, it seeks further to position this contemporary relationship within the larger historical and cultural context.

Besides crafting screenplays, Cha also wrote film reviews under the various guises of Xiao Zijia, Lin Zichang, Yao Fulan, Yao Jiayi.1 His reviews included Great Wall productions, even those penned by himself as Lin. Looking at these articles today, we see that they serve not only as precious autobiographical insights into Cha’s life as a screenwriter, but they also hold significant referential values. This text will be examining Cha’s reflections on films published in Ta Kung Pao, in an attempt to piece together Cha’s creative impulse and defining character, from his time as a screenwriter that carried onto his later literary works as Jin Yong in the wuxia genre. Lin Huan’s first screenplay was The Peerless Beauty (1953), a film directed by Li Pingqian. Before its premiere, Cha released an article in the evening edition of Ta Kung Pao, The New Evening Post. Titled ‘Regarding The Peerless Beauty’ under his pseudonym Lin, he mentioned the xiqu and dramas that were themed around the story of Lord Xinling and Lady Yu before the emergence of the film version.

    East Asian Popular Culture Fall 2021 Classroom: 204 Time: Tuesday and Thursday, 13:30-14:45 Instructor: Saeji, CedarBough T. [email protected] (change to PNU address?) Office: ?? Office Hours: General consultation Monday & Wednesday 9am to 1pm by appointment Career consultation Monday & Wednesday 1pm to 5pm by appointment Communication: * It is appropriate at all times to call all your professors Dr. or Professor unless they have explicitly instructed you otherwise. In addition, formality in this respect is quite strong in Korea. Therefore, please call me Dr. Saeji. When you're not my student anymore, we can drop this formality. * Email is a formal medium of communication, and should begin with a salutation and end with your full name (particularly if your email display name is NOT a name in my roll book). Email to the professor in English or Korean is acceptable. I will probably answer in English, because that is faster for me. Please give 24 hours response time—last minute emails may not be read and answered before a deadline. * Please use email and not any other messaging system for a quicker response. You are responsible for checking your email daily, and for responding to messages that require your participation. The course website is a 24/7 resource for our class. Please check it often. Course Description: People often dismiss pop culture as fundamentally trivial, ephemeral, or inconsequential. Yet in a world that is drawn together by the media, the pop culture that we consume has become a common language—our world has mediatized, and as this was happening the media has responded by consolidating their power.
