Gerretsen was a renowned freelance photographer who had previously worked in Chile and Vietnam when he got the call from Coppola, who was looking for a combat photographer for a war movie. Given unprecedented access to the film’s stars, extras, crew, and legendary behind-the-scenes drama he spent six months in the Philippines, shooting thousands of images. Culled from that archive, these full-color photographs offer an intimate glimpse of the turmoil and excitement of a Hollywood spectacle rising out of the unpredictable climate of the Philippine rainforest. Capturing the star power of Marlon Brando, Martin Sheen, and Dennis Hopper, as well as the sprawling sets, he takes us into the beauty of the Southeast Asian jungle and shows us how its inhabitants were incorporated into the filming. Throughout the book, Gerretsen’s astute reflections of his experience on set are as fascinating as his photography. While Apocalypse Now remains one of the most critically acclaimed movies of all time, the making of the film is equally legendary. -

Media Images of War 3(1) 7–41 © the Author(S) 2010 Reprints and Permission: Sagepub
MWC Article Media, War & Conflict Media images of war 3(1) 7–41 © The Author(s) 2010 Reprints and permission: sagepub. co.uk/journalsPermissions.nav DOI: 10.1177/1750635210356813 Michael Griffin http://mwc.sagepub.com Macalester College, Saint Paul, MN, USA Abstract Photographic images of war have been used to accentuate and lend authority to war reporting since the early 20th century, with depictions in 1930s picture magazines of the Spanish Civil War prompting unprecedented expectations for frontline visual coverage. By the 1960s, Vietnam War coverage came to be associated with personal, independent and uncensored reporting and image making, seen as a journalistic ideal by some, and an obstacle to successful government conduct of the war by others. This article considers the idealized ‘myth’ of Vietnam War coverage and how it has influenced print and television photojournalism of American conflicts, skewing expectations of wartime media performance and fostering a consistent pattern of US Government/media collaboration. Upon analysis, pictorial coverage of US wars by the American media not only fails to live up to the myth of Vietnam but tends to be compliant and nationalist. It fails to reflect popular ideals of independent and critical photojournalism, or even the willingness to depict the realities of war. Keywords documentary, Gulf War, Iraq War, journalism, news, photography, photojournalism, television, television news, Vietnam War, visual communication, visual culture, war, war photography Media representations of war are of interest to media scholars for many reasons. First, as reports or images associated with extreme conflict and matters of life and death, they tend to draw intense public attention, and potentially influence public opinion. -

Increasing Contribution of News Photo Agencies Into Journalism by Evolving Technology
The Online Journal of Communication and Media – April 2015 Volume 1, Issue 2 INCREASING CONTRIBUTION OF NEWS PHOTO AGENCIES INTO JOURNALISM BY EVOLVING TECHNOLOGY Assist.Prof. Dr. Kerim KARAGÖZ1, Prof.Dr. Özer KANBUROĞLU2 1,2Kocaeli University, Turkey [email protected],[email protected] Abstract:The publication of news photos in the journals directly begun in the beginning of 20th Century although news photos had emerged as a profession in the last quarter of 19th century. At the same time, the photos taken immediately distributed among and used in different media organs. In the beginning, the news were distributed by using a specific technique in the emerging agencies, before the photos. The economic reasons were determining factors at establishment of the news agencies in different European countries and in Northern America. Before that, hand-written commercial news letters were disseminated by copying them again by hand-writing. The qualified news coming on time in commercial and capitalist system became important as much as production. Thus, the new circles and groups emerged which were ready to pay for reaching quickly to news. When those increased in numbers, it was realized that the dissemination of news to large areas could be a profitable job. Consequently, the ‘news agencies’ as institutions emerged as a response to a rising need. Today, the news agencies with specific responsibilities in the global communication network just transmit the news and visual material. But some agencies only work on the photos. These agencies transmit photos to all news centers in a short time by connecting with a contracted photographer in that region, or in a region close to the event. -
