To Download the BALANDA and the BARK CANOES
The Balanda and the Bark Canoes A documentary about making Ten Canoes May, 2005 Central Arnhem Land, Australia ‘We are making a movie. The story is their story, those that live on this land, in their language, and set a long time before the coming of the Balanda, as we white people are known. For the people of the Arafura Swamp, this film is an opportunity, maybe a last chance to hold on to the old ways. For all of us, the challenges are unexpected, the task beyond anything imagined. For me, it is the most difficult film I have made, in the most foreign land I've been to...and it is Australia.’ – Rolf de Heer Directors’ Q & A Q: What was the inspiration behind this documentary? And/or how did it come about? The documentary is a companion to the feature film Ten Canoes. Ten Canoes is an in-language indigenous tragi-comedy set in the historical (pre-white settlement) and mythical past of the Ganalbingu (Yolngu) people. It is a cautionary tale of love, lust and revenge gone wrong. Although financed, the film spent three years in the development phase. There were a number of reasons why but one of them included consolidating the early rapport and trust between Rolf, his team and the community. During this time, Rolf began visiting the communities regularly and would return with new sets of working challenges and with stories full of adventure. It became apparent that a compelling documentary could be made in its own right. Rolf approached SBS Independent, investors in the feature film Ten Canoes, about documenting the already crazy yet exhilarating journey. -

The Cinema of Giorgio Mangiamele
WHO IS BEHIND THE CAMERA? The cinema of Giorgio Mangiamele Silvana Tuccio Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy August, 2009 School of Culture and Communication The University of Melbourne Who is behind the camera? Abstract The cinema of independent film director Giorgio Mangiamele has remained in the shadows of Australian film history since the 1960s when he produced a remarkable body of films, including the feature film Clay, which was invited to the Cannes Film Festival in 1965. This thesis explores the silence that surrounds Mangiamele’s films. His oeuvre is characterised by a specific poetic vision that worked to make tangible a social reality arising out of the impact with foreignness—a foreign society, a foreign country. This thesis analyses the concept of the foreigner as a dominant feature in the development of a cinematic language, and the extent to which the foreigner as outsider intersects with the cinematic process. Each of Giorgio Mangiamele’s films depicts a sharp and sensitive picture of the dislocated figure, the foreigner apprehending the oppressive and silencing forces that surround his being whilst dealing with a new environment; at the same time the urban landscape of inner suburban Melbourne and the natural Australian landscape are recreated in the films. As well as the international recognition given to Clay, Mangiamele’s short films The Spag and Ninety-Nine Percent won Australian Film Institute awards. Giorgio Mangiamele’s films are particularly noted for their style. This thesis explores the cinematic aesthetic, visual style and language of the films. -
Crowdfunding and Independent Screen Content Production in Australia
Crowdfunding and Independent Screen Content Production in Australia A direct economic relationship between producer and audience Rebecca Laycock B.A.Com. and BMedia (Hons) Submitted in fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts (Research) School of Media, Entertainment and Creative Arts Creative Industries Queensland University of Technology 2015 Keywords Crowdfunding, crowdsourcing, digital distribution, film finance, government funding, independent film, screen content, Screen Australia 2 Abstract Crowdfunding is a new form of film finance that emerged in Australia in 2010 and is being used by independent screen content producers to raise finance for short film, documentary, television program, short animation and even feature-length production. This trend is seeing Australian independent content producers bypass traditional sources of finance by working with a model for finance that is outside, or perhaps alongside, traditional forms of film financing in Australia. In some cases, filmmakers are no longer solely waiting for government funding to green-light a project, they are initiating funds prior, during and after production to guarantee their film is produced. Independent screen content producers are also establishing a direct economic relationship between producer and audience and in so doing are simultaneously establishing a niche audience for their content. Crowdfunding is to an extent becoming a necessity, especially within a decreased national funding arts environment. However, to date there has been limited in-depth academic analysis of crowdfunding as a source of production finance for independent Australian screen content production, particularly in terms of government action, industry trends, and what areas of the broader screen industry are receiving crowdfunding. -

Adventures in Film Music Redux Composer Profiles
Adventures in Film Music Redux - Composer Profiles ADVENTURES IN FILM MUSIC REDUX COMPOSER PROFILES A. R. RAHMAN Elizabeth: The Golden Age A.R. Rahman, in full Allah Rakha Rahman, original name A.S. Dileep Kumar, (born January 6, 1966, Madras [now Chennai], India), Indian composer whose extensive body of work for film and stage earned him the nickname “the Mozart of Madras.” Rahman continued his work for the screen, scoring films for Bollywood and, increasingly, Hollywood. He contributed a song to the soundtrack of Spike Lee’s Inside Man (2006) and co- wrote the score for Elizabeth: The Golden Age (2007). However, his true breakthrough to Western audiences came with Danny Boyle’s rags-to-riches saga Slumdog Millionaire (2008). Rahman’s score, which captured the frenzied pace of life in Mumbai’s underclass, dominated the awards circuit in 2009. He collected a British Academy of Film and Television Arts (BAFTA) Award for best music as well as a Golden Globe and an Academy Award for best score. He also won the Academy Award for best song for “Jai Ho,” a Latin-infused dance track that accompanied the film’s closing Bollywood-style dance number. Rahman’s streak continued at the Grammy Awards in 2010, where he collected the prize for best soundtrack and “Jai Ho” was again honoured as best song appearing on a soundtrack. Rahman’s later notable scores included those for the films 127 Hours (2010)—for which he received another Academy Award nomination—and the Hindi-language movies Rockstar (2011), Raanjhanaa (2013), Highway (2014), and Beyond the Clouds (2017). -
QUT Digital Repository
QUT Digital Repository: http://eprints.qut.edu.au/ Starrs, D. Bruno (2007) Sounds of silence: an interview with Rolf de Heer. Metro Magazine(152):pp. 18-21. © Copyright 2007 D. Bruno Starrs Sounds of Silence: An Interview with Rolf de Heer. By D. Bruno Starrs. Rolf de Heer’s twelfth feature film, “Dr. Plonk” (starring Nigel Lunghi, Paul Blackwell and Magda Szubanski), premiered on closing night of the 2007 Adelaide Film Festival recently. Already feted as South Australian of the Year, De Heer received the Don Dunstan award on opening night to rapturous applause from his home town crowd. D. Bruno Starrs interviewed Australia’s most successful non- mainstream film-maker about the black and white, silent slap-stick comedy three days before its inaugural screening. D. Bruno Starrs: With “Dr. Plonk” you’ve made an ostensibly silent film. Do you think audiences don’t care about sound? Rolf de Heer: They care enormously about sound. Sound is, from my point of view, 60% of the emotional content of a film. So they do, enormously. Why, then, have you made a silent film? (Laughing) Because I thought I’d enjoy doing so. Look, it’s a funny one, and it’s not what I expected to do … In fact, I hit upon it at the time James Currie and I had just finished the “Ten Canoes” mix and, literally, just about to have a drink to celebrate and that’s when I discovered that I would be doing a silent film. And I said, “Sorry, Jim, you’re not working on the next one”.
