Abstract When Netflix launched in April 1998, Internet video was in its infancy. Eighteen years later, Netflix has developed into the first truly global Internet TV network. Many books have been written about the five broadcast networks – NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, and the CW – and many about the major cable networks – HBO, CNN, MTV, Nickelodeon, just to name a few – and this is the fitting time to undertake a detailed analysis of how Netflix, as the preeminent Internet TV networks, has come to be. This book, then, combines historical, industrial, and textual analysis to investigate, contextualize, and historicize Netflix's development as an Internet TV network. The book is split into four chapters. The first explores the ways in which Netflix's development during its early years a DVD-by-mail company – 1998-2007, a period I am calling "Netflix as Rental Company" – lay the foundations for the company's future iterations and successes. During this period, Netflix adapted DVD distribution to the Internet, revolutionizing the way viewers receive, watch, and choose content, and built a brand reputation on consumer-centric innovation.

  • Ripensare L'episodio. Recap E Recensioni Nell'era Del Binge
    Mediascapes journal 6/2016 Ripensare l’episodio. Recap e recensioni nell’era del binge- watching Chiara Checcaglini Università degli Studi di Urbino Carlo Bo Le serie televisive americane contemporanee hanno sfruttato negli ultimi anni le possibilità di estensione temporale offerte dalla forma seriale al fine di costruire universi narrativi complessi, strutturati e arredati. Il fattore chiave della specificità seriale è da sempre la suddivisione in stagioni ed episodi, che differenzia le serie dalla narrazione cinematografica (Bandirali, Terrone 2014). Oggi, il panorama seriale è sempre meno incentrato sul medium televisivo in senso tradizionale, ed è definito dalla frammentazione degli interessi delle audience e dalla predominanza della circolazione sulla distribuzione (Jenkins 2012): nuovi soggetti stanno sperimentando nuovi modi di produzione e distribuzione, che sembrano influenzare i comportamenti e le routine degli spettatori contemporanei. Soggetti come Netflix o Amazon hanno fatto proprie pratiche di circolazione come lo streaming e il binge-watching, attraverso modelli digitali di distribuzione e attraverso il rilascio contemporaneo degli episodi di intere nuove stagioni dei loro prodotti. Ciononostante, alcune serie incentrate su una narrazione a colpi di scena, o sull’attualità, traggono ancora beneficio da una programmazione di tipo tradizionale, mentre il revival del modello della miniserie evidenzia nuove connessioni tra il linguaggio televisivo e quello cinematografico. Strutture episodiche così diversificate comportano

  • 10 / National Identity and Global Television: Re-Making Australia's
    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Humanities Commons The London Film & Media Reader 4 10 / National Identity and Global Television: Re-making Australia’s Rake for American Audiences K. Brenna Wardell Trans-national TV and Globalisation: The Re-make This essay considers questions of Australian and American identity, focusing on the U.S. remake of the Australian TV series Rake in order to unpack ideas to do with national and trans-national media. The U.S. Rake, which was launched in January 2014 by Fox Broadcasting, is of interest because the series complicates long-standing trends, including U.S. media dominance and the British heritage of most foreign re-makes on U.S. television. The U.S. Rake’s short, tumultuous history also exemplifies the diverse challenges of re-makes, many of which have had limited success or have failed completely, such as the U.S. re-makes (NBC, 2008-2009; NBC, 2003) of the Australian Kath & Kim (ABC, 2002-2005) and the British series Coupling (BBC2, 2000-2004). 95 The London Film & Media Reader 4 Given the voracious desire and disruptive behaviour traditionally associated with the figure of the rake, transferring the original’s frank tone and content to the U.S proved delicate work, complicated by the relatively restrictive nature of American network broadcasting, although the direct involvement of the original’s creators, particularly Peter Duncan, suggests a close connection between the Rakes. Key differences are evident in the broadcasters (the commercial Fox in the U.S.; the government-funded ABC1 in Australia); cast (Greg Kinnear in the U.S.; Richard Roxburgh in Australia); the nature of their respective television audiences; and the dissimilar rules governing each nation’s TV content.

    Gender references in rap lyrics Pauliina Karru University of Tampere School of Modern Languages and Translation Studies English Philology Pro Gradu –thesis May 2006 Tampereen yliopisto Englantilainen filologia Kieli- ja käännöstieteiden laitos KARRU, PAULIINA: Gender references in rap lyrics Pro gradu –tutkielma, 65 sivua + 1 liite Kevät 2006 Rap-lyriikat on aihealue jota on tutkittu hyvin vähän. Se on kuitenkin hyvä peili nykypäivän mustien amerikkalaisten, etenkin nuorten, maailmaan, kulttuuriin, kieleen ja arvoihin. Vastaavasti blues-lyriikat kuvastavat omaa aikakauttaan. Taustamateriaalina tässä tutkimuksessa toimii lukuisia tutkimuksia naisten ja miesten kielenkäytöstä yleensä sekä myös spesifisemmin mustien amerikkalaisten kielenkäytöstä. Lisäksi esitellään joitakin tutkimuksia jotka ovat paneutuneet rapin ja bluesin maailmaan sekä tutkimuksia jotka käsittelevät naisiin ja miehiin viittaavia sanoja. Tähän tutkimukseen on valittu viisi mies- ja viisi naisrap-artistia sekä viisi mies- ja kuusi naisblues-artistia. Jokaiselta artistilta valittiin kymmenen suosittua ja siten vaikutusvaltaista laulua. Kahdelta naisblues-artistilta löytyi vähemmän kuin kymmenen sanoitusta ja siksi heidät yhdistettiin ikään kuin yhdeksi. Näistä lyriikoista muodostettiin korpukset joista etsittiin sanoja joilla viitattiin naisiin ja miehiin. Tulokset esitellään niin sanallisesti kuin taulukoissakin, lukuisten esimerkkien kera, ja niitä verrataan tutkimuksen alussa esitettyihin aikaisempiin tutkimuksiin ja niistä pohjautuviin teorioihin.

  • Family Law Toolkit for Survivors the Domestic Violence & Mental Health Collaboration Project
    Family Law Toolkit for Survivors The Domestic Violence & Mental Health Collaboration Project Songs for Surviving the Family Law Process Listening to music is an effective way to distract yourself and to improve your mood. Music has been shown to decrease anxiety and depression. It also decreases the level of cortisol, a stress hormone in your body. Music can be motivational, driving you forward when you feel like giving up. This handout provides a list of songs selected to help you throughout the family law process. They are chosen for many reasons—some songs are motivating, others relaxing, some may just bring a smile to your face. The lyrics of these songs are about surviving and connecting with your inner strength. We chose a range of musical styles, so you can pick the songs that resonate most with you. You may also want to add your own favorites to this list. You can listen when you are feeling stressed, on your way to or from court, or daily as part of your self-care. For additional suggestions about reducing your stress and taking care of yourself throughout this process, check out the Coping Skills handout, speak with a domestic violence advocate (see Domestic Violence Advocacy Resources), or see a mental health service provider (see Mental Health Treatment Resources). “For me, music helps me cope. Music helps me when I am sad, happy, and even angry.
