  • A Dark New World : Anatomy of Australian Horror Films
    A dark new world: Anatomy of Australian horror films Mark David Ryan Faculty of Creative Industries, Queensland University of Technology A thesis submitted in fulfillment of the degree Doctor of Philosophy (PhD), December 2008 The Films (from top left to right): Undead (2003); Cut (2000); Wolf Creek (2005); Rogue (2007); Storm Warning (2006); Black Water (2007); Demons Among Us (2006); Gabriel (2007); Feed (2005). ii KEY WORDS Australian horror films; horror films; horror genre; movie genres; globalisation of film production; internationalisation; Australian film industry; independent film; fan culture iii ABSTRACT After experimental beginnings in the 1970s, a commercial push in the 1980s, and an underground existence in the 1990s, from 2000 to 2007 contemporary Australian horror production has experienced a period of strong growth and relative commercial success unequalled throughout the past three decades of Australian film history. This study explores the rise of contemporary Australian horror production: emerging production and distribution models; the films produced; and the industrial, market and technological forces driving production. Australian horror production is a vibrant production sector comprising mainstream and underground spheres of production. Mainstream horror production is an independent, internationally oriented production sector on the margins of the Australian film industry producing titles such as Wolf Creek (2005) and Rogue (2007), while underground production is a fan-based, indie filmmaking subculture, producing credit-card films such as I know How Many Runs You Scored Last Summer (2006) and The Killbillies (2002). Overlap between these spheres of production, results in ‘high-end indie’ films such as Undead (2003) and Gabriel (2007) emerging from the underground but crossing over into the mainstream.

(1973), The Department (1975), A Handful of Friends (1976), The Club (1977) and Travelling North (1979). In 1972 The Removalists won the Australian Writers’ Guild AWGIE Award for best stage play and the best script in any medium and the British production saw Williamson nominated most promising playwright by the London Evening Standard. The 1980s saw his success continue with Celluloid Heroes (1980), The Perfectionist (1982), Sons of Cain (1985), Emerald City (1987) and Top Silk (1989); whilst the 1990s produced Siren (1990), Money and Friends (1991), Brilliant Lies (1993), Sanctuary (1994), Dead White Males (1995), Heretic (1996), Third World Blues (an adaptation of Jugglers Three) and After the Ball (both in 1997), and Corporate Vibes and Face to Face (both in 1999).

Williamson is widely recognised as Australia’s most successful playwright and over the last thirty years his plays have been performed throughout Australia and produced in Britain, United States, Canada and many European countries. A number of his stage works have been adapted for the screen, including The Removalists, Don’s Party, The Club, Travelling North, Emerald City, Sanctuary and Brilliant Lies.

  • October 2016 to Saturday 12Th November 2016
    FROM THE PRESIDENT Dear Friends, I am pleased to report that our new curtain mechanism has been installed. The curtain is now operated by the press of a button! In some ways it was sad to see the old pulley go as it had been a part of the Playhouse Theatre for so long. I was so relieved that the curtain itself didn't fall apart when it came down. The theatre is continually being improved. I would like to welcome Nick Lahey as a Rep director. This is his first play for Hobart Rep. Thank you to Nick cast and crew for their dedication to Up For Grabs. I look forward to seeing the fruits of their labours. President Liz “on duty” in the Box Office during the run of Something’s Afoot We thank our volunteers and supporters. We could not function without you. A SLICE OF THEATRE LIFE You never know who you’ll see at The Playhouse during a theatrical run. Top left, well known actor Jeff Michel selling programs. Top right, Hobart Rep Secretary, Tony Webb and below, Heather Chong, a most beloved Sponsor. (We LOVE our Sponsors!) UP FOR GRABS A Fast Paced Comedy and Maybe a Hint of Satire When Simone Allen, an exclusive art dealer, is given the opportunity to sell a Brett Whitely, her behaviour becomes highly questionable as the pressure mounts. Driven by greed and aesthetics, just how far will Williamson’s characters go when more than just a beautiful work of art is up for grabs in this sexy comedy of manners? A fast paced show about money, greed, unhappy couples and expensive art.

    Thespioprudence Australian film directors and Film performance “How do our directors work with actors on performance and what is the dominant approach to directing actors in Australian film?” Rosalind Nugent-Williams School of Film and Television Faculty of Creative Industries Queensland University of Technology Thesis in partial fulfilment of Master of Arts by Research 2004 State of Original Authorship The work contained in this thesis has not been previously submitted for a degree or diploma at any other higher education institution. To the best of my knowledge and belief, the thesis contains no material previously published or written by another person except where due reference is made. Signed: Date 2004 Acknowledgements I wish to thank Helen Yeates and John Hookham for their patience, generosity and wisdom as my supervisors. I also wish to thank my friends, Merran Lawler, Mark Thomas, Margaret-Mary Batch, Genevieve Thackwell-James, my teacher, Wayne Taylor, and my partner, Sean Riordan, for their support. Abstract “…we, directors and actors, put into practice the practice – we don’t practice the theory. I think that if there is no theory of acting, at least there are theoretical laws that we may find, curiously enough, in all traditions of acting. It is true that the term “theory of acting” does not seem fundamentally wrong, but it seems always somewhat imperialistic and pretentious. I prefer to use fundamental laws which we sometimes know but then sometimes lose and forget. It is only practice that all of a sudden can make law or tradition rise to the surface. I will not say then that there is no theory of acting; on the contrary, there have been many of them.

  • At Breaking Point? Challenges for Australian Film Policy Through the Lens of Genre (Horror) Films
    QUT Digital Repository: http://eprints.qut.edu.au/ Ryan , Mark David (2009) At breaking point? Challenges for Australian film policy through the lens of genre (horror) films. In: Australian and New Zealand Communication Association Conference, 8-10 July 2009, Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, Queensland. © Copyright 2009 [please consult the author] 1 At Breaking Point? Challenges for Australian Film Policy through the Lens of Genre (horror) Films Mark David Ryan Queensland University of Technology, Brisbane, Queensland, Australia [email protected] Abstract Cultural policy settings attempting to foster the growth and development of the Australian feature film industry in era of globalisation are coming under increasing pressure. Global forces and emerging production and distribution models are challenging the “narrowness” of cultural policy – mandating a particular film culture, circumscribing certain notions of value and limiting the variety of films produced through cultural policy driven subvention models. Australian horror film production is an important case study. Horror films are a production strategy well suited to the financial limitations of the Australian film industry with competitive advantages for producers against international competitors. However, emerging within a “national” cinema driven by public subsidy and social/cultural objectives, horror films – internationally oriented with a low-culture status – have been severely marginalised within public funding environments. This paper introduces Australian horror film production, and examines the limitations of cultural policy and the impacts of these questions for the Producer Offset. Keywords: Australian film industry, film policy, cultural policy, Australian horror films, genre movies, cultural value, economic models, Wolf Creek 2 Introduction Australian genre cinema, or local traditions of filmmaking engaging with popular or Hollywood movies genres such as action, adventure, horror, science-fiction and so on, have occupied a precarious position within Australian cinema.

  • Whither Culture? Australian Horror Films and the Limitations of Cultural Policy
    QUT Digital Repository: http://eprints.qut.edu.au/ Ryan , Mark David (2009) Whither culture? Australian horror films and the limitations of cultural policy. Media International Australia incorporating Culture and Policy(No 133). pp. 43-55. © Copyright 2009 Please consult the author. Whither culture? Australian horror films and the limitations of cultural policy Mark David Ryan Abstract Cultural policy that attempts to foster the Australian film industry’s growth and development in an era of globalisation is coming under increasing pressure. Throughout the 2000s, there has been a substantial boom in Australian horror films led by ‘runaway’ horror film Saw (2004), Wolf Creek (2005), and Undead (2003), achieving varying levels of popularity and commercial success worldwide. However, emerging within a national cinema driven by public subsidy and valuing ‘quality’ and ‘cultural content’ over ‘entertainment’ and ‘commercialism’, horror films have generally been antithetical to these objectives. Consequently, the recent boom in horror films has occurred largely outside the purview and subvention of cultural policy. This paper argues that global forces and emerging production and distribution models are challenging the ‘narrowness’ of cultural policy – a narrowness that mandates a particular film culture, circumscribes certain notions of value and limits the variety of films produced domestically. Despite their low-culture status, horror films have been well suited to the Australian film industry’s financial limitations, they are a growth strategy for producers, and a training ground for emerging filmmakers. Introduction Since the 1970s, cultural policy has established and sustained an Australian film industry, and as Tom O’Regan has argued, ‘without it there would be no Australian cinema beyond a trivial level’ (1996: 26).
