    Development of the Global Film Industry The global film industry has witnessed significant transformations in the past few years. Regions outside the USA have begun to prosper while non-traditional produc- tion companies such as Netflix have assumed a larger market share and online movies adapted from literature have continued to gain in popularity. How have these trends shaped the global film industry? This book answers this question by analyzing an increasingly globalized business through a global lens. Development of the Global Film Industry examines the recent history and current state of the business in all parts of the world. While many existing studies focus on the internal workings of the industry, such as production, distribution and screening, this study takes a “big picture” view, encompassing the transnational integration of the cultural and entertainment industry as a whole, and pays more attention to the coordinated develop- ment of the film industry in the light of influence from literature, television, animation, games and other sectors. This volume is a critical reference for students, scholars and the public to help them understand the major trends facing the global film industry in today’s world. Qiao Li is Associate Professor at Taylor’s University, Selangor, Malaysia, and Visiting Professor at the Université Paris 1 Panthéon- Sorbonne. He has a PhD in Film Studies from the University of Gloucestershire, UK, with expertise in Chinese- language cinema.

  • War Room Wins Box Office
    War Room Wins Box Office Over the Labor Day weekend (Sept. 4-7), the faith-based family drama War Room exceeded expectations by earning $12.6 million from 1,526 locations and taking the top spot of box office sales. It also opened as the #1 faith-based movie of 2015 and the highest in the genre since Heaven Is for Real (in April 2014). War Room is the fifth film from Alex and Stephen Kendrick (Courageous, Fireproof, Facing the Giants, Flywheel), and has enjoyed media coverage from outlets such as Associated Press, Washington Post, Entertainment Weekly, Forbes, USA Today, Entertainment Tonight, CBS, FOX News, and others. Actor/writer/director Alex Kendrick and his brother, producer/co-writer Stephen Kendrick, did exactly what one would expect devout Christians to do when it came to their latest film: they prayed for it to succeed. “We didn’t wake up one day wanting to make a movie about a 75-year-old woman’s prayer closet,” Stephen explains. “We asked God to order our steps, and the ideas came. As filmmakers, we’re laying tracks before a moving train.” “People have plans for everything in life: careers, finances, health. But what about a strategy for prayer to affect our lives, our spouses, and our children?” Alex asks. “We want to inspire, challenge, and motivate families to not just react but to plan through the right kind of battles—and to use the best resources possible.” Adds Stephen: “We’re after something here to radically improve our culture, and we want moviegoers to experience it in an inspiring and emotional story.

  • MEDIA LITERACY GUIDE by Sue Summers
    MEDIA LITERACY GUIDE by Sue Summers Sponsored by What is media literacy? Media literacy is a composite of skills and knowledge needed to question, analyze, interpret, and evaluate media messages. It is the application of critical thinking to the messages of mass media that saturate our culture. To become a successful student, responsible citizen, productive worker, or competent and conscientious consumer, an individual must develop expertise in dealing with the increasingly sophisticated information and entertainment media. Information is often delivered on a multi- sensory level to affect thinking, feelings, and behavior. Today’s information and entertainment technologies communicate to us through a powerful combination of words, images, and sounds. Consequently, we need to develop a wider set of literacy skills so we can both comprehend the messages we receive and effectively design and distribute our own messages. Being literate in a media age requires critical thinking skills that empower us as we make decisions in the classroom, the living room, the shopping center, the workplace, the boardroom, the voting booth, and also on the Internet. It is important to note that, while media literacy does raise critical questions about the impact of media and technology, it is not an anti-media movement. Rather, it allows concerned individuals and organizations, including parents, educators, churches, health care providers, and citizen and consumer groups, to seek a more enlightened way of understanding our media environment. There are four steps to becoming media literate: awareness, analysis, reflection, and action. Awareness The first step to becoming media literate is an increased awareness of the messages of the media.

    A Word from Pastor Tom….. Can you believe that Summer is here and School is almost out? Where has all the time gone? Most people think that summer brings a slower pace and a relaxed atmosphere. It is not quite the same today as it was say, 50 years ago. Back then when I was a teenager, we spent most of our summer days doing “fun” activities. Picnics were common place and Little League ball games were the main event for the entire community. We went to Vacation Bible School (2 weeks) at our church and then maybe at the Baptist Church down the street or the Presbyterian church around the corner. The only camps we had were for those kids in Boy Scouts or Girl Scouts. The High School would have football practice that started two weeks before school, but we didn’t know what “Band Camp” or “Cheerleading Camp” were. Now our children have all the camps for Rev. Tom Rives sports, music, dance, cheerleading and many of them have summer jobs to put in Pastor the middle of the schedule. Mom’s “taxi” seems to always be on the go and we might even get a chance to wave at our parents/children as we are going in and out. We, at the church, have reduced Vacation Bible School to one week and have it at night to help with scheduling. But we’ve added Children’s Camp, Student Life Camp, July 4th Picnic, Anniversary Dinner and Golf Tournament, and at least one Mission Trip to our schedule.
