  • Annie Goldson As Historian and Filmmaker: a Case Study of Documentary Film As Historiophoty
    ANNIE GOLDSON AS HISTORIAN AND FILMMAKER: A CASE STUDY OF DOCUMENTARY FILM AS HISTORIOPHOTY Bevan Morgan A thesis submitted in fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Master of Arts in History at the University of Auckland, New Zealand, 2016 This thesis is for examination purposes only and is confidential to the examination process ABSTRACT There has been an ever-growing body of scholarship, particularly since the late 1980s, that looks at how the medium of film is used as a legitimate technique for relaying the dimensions of history. The issue has been divisive and controversial in academic circles, but it is fair to say that the acceptance of what Hayden White refers to as ‘historiophoty’ has indeed risen, and has attained a more respected standing in the discipline of history. Despite this, the scholarship on specific case studies still lacks in certain areas. There is a diverse body of literature on this topic, but the most famous studies predominantly still look at Hollywood drama films. Studies of documentaries, particularly from outside of the USA, are underrepresented, even as the genre itself has undergone a renaissance of sorts in the twenty-first century. This thesis adds a fresh perspective to this field by looking at a series of documentaries by New Zealand filmmaker and academic, Annie Goldson. Goldson is a prolific documentary feature filmmaker, and the three documentaries examined here, all contribute uniquely to the historical debates that have arisen in the countries in which they are set. Other scholars have studied these films, but nobody has looked at them from a purely historical perspective.

  • Innovation and Change in Aotearoa New Zealand's
    Innovation and Change in Aotearoa New Zealand’s Documentary Production Ecology 2010-2013 Anna Gwendoline Jackson Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy under a Jointly-Awarded PhD Program with The University of Melbourne and The University of Auckland. February 2014 School of Culture and Communication, University of Melbourne Department of Film, Television and Media Studies, University of Auckland Produced on archival quality paper ii Abstract This thesis presents a detailed analysis of New Zealand’s documentary production ecology during the period 2010 – 2013, focusing on innovation, change and the function(s) of documentary as a creative and cultural industry. ‘Ecology’ as a term in media and cultural studies scholarship is increasingly employed as a means of extending the scope of critical political economy beyond a critique of power dynamics in contemporary capitalist society to acknowledge the complex and multifaceted nature of relations between producers and audiences and the ways that media are produced, circulated and used. The use of the term ‘ecology’ in this context acknowledges the ways that our systems of communication, like those in nature, are not stable or fixed, but are interconnected, evolving and dynamic. Drawing on interviews, observation, practice-led research and analysis of theatrical and television documentary output, the framework of ecology is used to examine the specific conditions of documentary production in New Zealand as a complex media system in relation to global shifts in media production, distribution and use, and aims to identify factors that support or inhibit innovation in the context of New Zealand’s documentary production ecology.
