Peindre Pour Le Cinéma Une Histoire Du Matte Painting Réjane Hamus-Vallée
PU DU SEPTENTRION VIENT DE PARAITRE Peindre pour le cinéma Une histoire du Matte Painting Réjane Hamus-Vallée Présent depuis les débuts du cinématographe et traversant toute l’histoire du cinéma, le Matte Painting permet de combiner en un même plan large un décor réel et son prolongement sous forme d’une peinture, qu’elle soit réalisée avec des pinceaux sur du verre ou créée numériquement. Son agencement avec d’autres plans est si parfait que le spectateur en est rarement conscient. L’illusion est ainsi Peindre pour le cinéma complète pour le serment du Jeu de paume de Napoléon d’Abel Gance (1927), Une histoire du la façade de l’Inquirer de Citizen Kane d’Orson Welles (1940), la visite d’un Matte Painting musée est-berlinois du Rideau déchiré d’Alfred Hitchcock (1965), la forêt du Retour du Jedi (Richard Marquand, 1983) ou celle d’Avatar (James Cameron, Réjane Hamus- Vallée 2008)… Arts du spectacle — Images et sons Cet ouvrage propose une histoire de cette technique, de ses ancêtres directs à ses différentes technologies cinématographiques.

Ainsi, par l’étude du Matte Arts du spectacle - Images et sons Painting, c’est le rôle des effets spéciaux au cinéma qui est questionné, au moment où le numérique renouvelle les enjeux même de l’illusion cinématographique.

43E Festival International Du Film De La Rochelle Du 26 Juin Au 5 Juillet 2015 Le Puzzle Des Cinémas Du Monde
43e Festival International du Film de La Rochelle du 26 juin au 5 juillet 2015 LE PUZZLE DES CINÉMAS DU MONDE Une fois de plus nous revient l’impossible tâche de synthétiser une édition multiforme, tant par le nombre de films présentés que par les contextes dans lesquels ils ont été conçus. Nous ne pouvons nous résoudre à en sélectionner beaucoup moins, ce n’est pas faute d’essayer, et de toutes manières, un contexte économique plutôt inquiétant nous y contraint ; mais qu’une ou plusieurs pièces essentielles viennent à manquer au puzzle mental dont nous tentons, à l’année, de joindre les pièces irrégulières, et le Festival nous paraîtrait bancal. Finalement, ce qui rassemble tous ces films, qu’ils soient encore matériels ou virtuels (50/50), c’est nous, sélectionneuses au long cours. Nous souhaitons proposer aux spectateurs un panorama généreux de la chose filmique, cohérent, harmonieux, digne, sincère, quoique, la sincérité… Ambitieux aussi car nous aimons plus que tout les cinéastes qui prennent des risques et notre devise secrète pourrait bien être : mieux vaut un bon film raté qu’un mauvais film réussi. Et enfin, il nous plaît que les films se parlent, se rencontrent, s’éclairent les uns les autres et entrent en résonance dans l’esprit du festivalier. En 2015, nous avons procédé à un rééquilibrage géographique vers l’Asie, absente depuis plusieurs éditions de la programmation. Tout d’abord, avec le grand Hou Hsiao-hsien qui en est un digne représentant puisqu’il a tourné non seulement à Taïwan, son île natale mais aussi au Japon, à Hongkong et en Chine. -
Ancient Greek Myth and Drama in Greek Cinema (1930–2012): an Overall Approach
Konstantinos KyriaKos ANCIENT GREEK MYTH AND DRAMA IN GREEK CINEMA (1930–2012): AN OVERALL APPROACH Ι. Introduction he purpose of the present article is to outline the relationship between TGreek cinema and themes from Ancient Greek mythology, in a period stretching from 1930 to 2012. This discourse is initiated by examining mov- ies dated before WW II (Prometheus Bound, 1930, Dimitris Meravidis)1 till recent important ones such as Strella. A Woman’s Way (2009, Panos Ch. Koutras).2 Moreover, movies involving ancient drama adaptations are co-ex- amined with the ones referring to ancient mythology in general. This is due to a particularity of the perception of ancient drama by script writers and di- rectors of Greek cinema: in ancient tragedy and comedy film adaptations,3 ancient drama was typically employed as a source for myth. * I wish to express my gratitude to S. Tsitsiridis, A. Marinis and G. Sakallieros for their succinct remarks upon this article. 1. The ideologically interesting endeavours — expressed through filming the Delphic Cel- ebrations Prometheus Bound by Eva Palmer-Sikelianos and Angelos Sikelianos (1930, Dimitris Meravidis) and the Longus romance in Daphnis and Chloë (1931, Orestis Laskos) — belong to the origins of Greek cinema. What the viewers behold, in the first fiction film of the Greek Cinema (The Adventures of Villar, 1924, Joseph Hepp), is a wedding reception at the hill of Acropolis. Then, during the interwar period, film pro- duction comprises of documentaries depicting the “Celebrations of the Third Greek Civilisation”, romances from late antiquity (where the beauty of the lovers refers to An- cient Greek statues), and, finally, the first filmings of a theatrical performance, Del- phic Celebrations. -
The Films of Theo Angelopoulos: a Voyage in Time
The Films of Theo Angelopoulos: A Voyage in Time Evangelos Makrygiannakis Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy The University of Edinburgh 2008 Abstract This thesis provides a critical enquiry into the films of Theo Angelopoulos. Dividing his films into two periods—the one running through the seventies and the other starting with the advent of the eighties—I will examine the representation of history in the first period of Angelopoulos and the metaphor of the journey in his subsequent films. Furthermore, I will trace the development of an aesthetic based on long takes which evokes a particular sense of time in his films. This aesthetic, which is based on the internal rhythm of the shot, inscribes a temporality where past, present, and future coexist in a contemporaneous image. Being free from the requirements of an evolving plot, this image is an autonomous image which allows the passing of time to be felt. Autonomy, which I will define after philosopher Cornelius Castoriadis as an immanent movement towards change, can be also used to describe the process of changing oneself or a given society from within. In exploring the resonances autonomy has, I will make a connection between the social and the cinematic; an attempt which is informed by what Angelopoulos’ films do of their own accord. In this way, I will suggest that Angelopoulos is important not only for the history of film but also for one’s modus vivendi. iii iv Acknowledgements I would like to deeply thank my supervisors, the late Professor Dietrich Scheunemann, Professor Martine Beugnet and Professor John Orr, for all their precious feedback and support throughout the years. -
A Retrospective of Greek Film April 23 - June 14, 1993
The Museum of Modern Art For Immediate Release March 1993 CineMythology: A Retrospective of Greek Film April 23 - June 14, 1993 The first film exhibition to provide an overview of the history of Greek cinema is presented at The Museum of Modern Art from April 23 to June 14, 1993. CineMythology: A Retrospective of Greek Film, composed of forty-five films, reveals a cinema with a strong sense of social awareness. Thematically, it draws on distinctly Greek sources, including mythology and classical drama; questions of national identity, displacement and immigration; and the transformation of an agrarian society into a modern industrial one. During the opening weekend of the exhibition, Melina Mercouri and Irene Papas introduce films in which they star. On Friday, April 23, at 6:00 p.m., Ms. Mercouri and director Michalis Cacoyannis introduce Stella (1955). On Saturday, April 24, at 5:00 p.m., Ms. Papas and Mr. Cacoyannis introduce Electra (1962). On Sunday, April 25, at 2:00 p.m., Ms. Mercouri introduces Never on Sunday (1960). Other programs feature appearances by directors Costas Ferris, Nikos Koundouros, Nicos Papatakis, Pantelis Voulgaris, and Costas Vrettakos. While Greek cinema is clearly a part of a European tradition, it possesses a distinct style with periods of excellence often interrupted by turbulent political events. The early developments of Greek cinema, late in comparison to Europe and the United States, exhibit unique qualities. Social Decay (1931, Stelios Tatasopoulos) is informed by a distinct political and social awareness, and Daphnis and Chloe (1931, Oresits Laskos) is closely tied - more - 11 West 53 Street, New York, N.Y. -
The Colonels' Dictatorship and Its Afterlives
This is a postprint version of the following published document: Antoniou, D., Kornetis, K., Sichani, A.M. and Stefatos, K. (2017). Introduction: The Colonels' Dictatorship and Its Afterlives. Journal of Modern Greek Studies, 35(2) pp. 281-306. DOI: 10.1353/mgs.2017.0021 © 2017 by The Modern Greek Studies Association Introduction: The Colonels’ Dictatorship and Its Afterlives Dimitris Antoniou, Kostis Kornetis, Anna-Maria Sichani, and Katerina Stefatos A half century after the coup d’état of 21 April 1967, the art exhibition docu- menta 14 launched its public programs in Athens by revisiting the Colonels’ dictatorship. The organizers chose the former headquarters of the infamous military police (EAT/ESA) to host the “exercises of freedom,”1 a series of walk- ing tours, lectures, screenings, and performances that examined resistance, torture, trauma, and displacement in a comparative perspective. The initia- tive was met with mixed feelings, and its public discussion raised import- ant questions about the past. Why is it urgent today to revisit the junta as a period of acute trauma? Can we trace the roots of Greece’s current predicament to its non-democratic past? What remains unsaid and unsayable about the dictatorship and its enduring legacies?2 While the junta has been a favorite subject for public history (broadly understood here to include literature, film, personal testimonies, and so on), research on it has remained on the margins. Initially, it was marked by sporadic attempts to respond to the pressing public interest to understand the dictator- ship as a contemporary phenomenon (Tsoucalas 1969; Clogg and Yannopoulos 1972; Poulantzas 1976; Mouzelis 1978) and, most importantly, to explain how the Colonels came to power and why they managed to govern Greece for seven years. -
