Students in grades 4-7 at MacFarland Middle School and grades 10-12 at Bell Multicultural School (many of whom come from, or have parents who come from, Africa, Central and South America, and the Caribbean) drew on their experiences and imaginations, working in small groups to compose monologues, dialogues, scenes, poems, and songs. Their writings became the basis of African Roots/Latino Soul. Funded by the Smithsonian Latino Center, African Roots/Latino Soul is the second Discovery Theater production to be written by students, with the guidance of some highly talented teaching artists. The first was Retratos: Portraits of our World, developed the methods of engagements in partnership with YPT and the Smithsonian National Portrait Gallery, in conjunction with the traveling exhibition Retratos: 2,000 Years of Latin American Portraits.

  • Verdi's Rigoletto
    Verdi’s Rigoletto - A discographical conspectus by Ralph Moore It is hard if not impossible, to make a representative survey of recordings of Rigoletto, given that there are 200 in the catalogue; I can only compromise by compiling a somewhat arbitrary list comprising of a selection of the best-known and those which appeal to me. For a start, there are thirty or so studio recordings in Italian; I begin with one made in 1927 and 1930, as those made earlier than that are really only for the specialist. I then consider eighteen of the studio versions made since that one. I have not reviewed minor recordings or those which in my estimation do not reach the requisite standard; I freely admit that I cannot countenance those by Sinopoli in 1984, Chailly in 1988, Rahbari in 1991 or Rizzi in 1993 for a combination of reasons, including an aversion to certain singers – for example Gruberova’s shrill squeak of a soprano and what I hear as the bleat in Bruson’s baritone and the forced wobble in Nucci’s – and the existence of a better, earlier version by the same artists (as with the Rudel recording with Milnes, Kraus and Sills caught too late) or lacklustre singing in general from artists of insufficient calibre (Rahbari and Rizzi). Nor can I endorse Dmitri Hvorostovsky’s final recording; whether it was as a result of his sad, terminal illness or the vocal decline which had already set in I cannot say, but it does the memory of him in his prime no favours and he is in any case indifferently partnered.

  • Shirley Temple Black
    9/5/2016 NATAS / "Off Camera" / March 2014 March 2014 Editor's Note Dedicated to Shirley Temple Black... In the 1930s, she was the little shining star that our great nation needed to pull itself out of the throes of the Great Depression. Americans flocked to the movies to be cheered up by the little girl with the golden corkscrew curls and bubbly, effervescent personality. But, as we all know, Shirley Temple was not a "little star". By the time she was 3 years old, she was making movies in Hollywood. Very soon after that, Little Miss Miracle would become Hollywood's most-famous child star ever -- a big star that shined brightly for the rest of her life. With her passing last month at the age of 85, it is a very sad time for the San Francisco/Northern California Chapter of the National Academy of Television Arts and Sciences. Shirley Temple Black was a longtime San Francisco Bay Area resident who was a dedicated, wonderfully-involved member and supporter of our Chapter for five decades. Nearly 20 years ago, our Chapter inducted her into the Silver Circle to recognize her many significant contributions to the television industry. In addition to the world claiming her as its own during the height of her movie career, we are proud to say that Shirley was one of us in the Chapter, our most famous member ever. We at Off Camera are dedicating this month's issue to Shirley's memory. In this issue, you can read about her career as an actress and U.S.

  • TV Formats in Europe
    TV Formats in Europe Given the prolonged advertising recession and the fact that several major titles have peaked, the TV formats market in Europe is showing remarkable resilience. The value created by the top 100 formats was $2,931 million in 2013 for 84 European channels across the 16 territories and 21 distributors, according to the TV Formats in Europe report. The 2013 figure was 3.3% down on the 2012 total, but up on 2011. The number of hours broadcast reached 28,386 in 2013, nearly the same as 2012. The UK is the TV formats leader in Europe – just ahead of France. The value created by formats for UK broadcasters was $600 million in 2013, down from $677 million in 2012. France recorded $599 million in 2013, up from $547 million in 2012. The UK, France, Germany and Italy accounted for 72% of Europe’s total value created in 2013. The top 10 broadcasters accounted for two-thirds of the total value created in Europe for 2013 – which means that the remaining third was shared by 74 channels. France’s TF1 ($332 million) led the pack again, followed by Italy’s Rai 1 and the UK’s BBC1. The total number of hours broadcast in Europe for the 100 formats was 28,386 in 2013; very close to 2012. The UK was the leader again, despite its 2013 total (3,935) being considerably lower than in 2012 (4,623). Romania took third place, having added 645 hours to its total in 2013. Published in March 2014, this 146-page, PDF-delivered report covers 100 major formats on 84 channels across 16 European territories; with extensive comparison tables.
