Mad Tiger a Film by Jonathan Yi and Michael Haertlein
presents Mad Tiger A film by Jonathan Yi and Michael Haertlein “MAD TIGER promises something much crazier than your average concert documentary, and possibly more endearing, whether or not punk rock is your jam.” - Indiewire “… a super film that comes fully loaded with energy, attitude, and lunacy. Very highly recommended for punk fans and Peelander expats” - JBSpins USA and Japan / 2015 / Documentary / English 82 min / 1.78 / 5.1 and stereo Press Contacts: Emma Griffiths | EMMA GRIFFITHS PR | tel : 917-806-0599 | [email protected] Genevieve Villaflor | Film Movement | tel: (212) 941-7744 x215 | [email protected] Film Movement Theatrical Contact: Clemence Taillandier | tel: (212) 941-7715 | [email protected] Select Press for Mad Tiger “10 Must-See Documentaries at DOC NYC” – Indiewire "This entertaining doc chronicles midlife crises of the hipster variety." – Frank Scheck, The Hollywood Reporter “Fantastic portrait of a band and its leader that works on so many different levels. What I love about the film is that what starts out with a look at a band changes into a look at what it takes to be in a band and how the relationships outside of the band are forced to change because of the dynamics of the band. What’s even better is that as the film goes on it morphs again and becomes Kengo's quest to find himself...or maybe that's what it was about all along. Either way, or anyway it's amazing. It’s so good I can't wait to see it again.” – Steve Kopian, Unseen Film. “The members of Peelander-Z unmask themselves for revealing new doc MAD TIGER.. -

"As we have seen our previous honorees blossom over the years, with just this year Brie Larson and Alicia Vikander both taking home Academy Awards, we know this class has a bright future ahead of them." Added Vice President/Executive Editor of Variety Steven Gaydos, “As the Fall film awards season approaches, there may be questions about which films will ultimately shine as prize winners, but there is no doubt that once again this year's releases feature astounding new talents filled with creative courage and unlimited potential for bright careers. -

Degree awarded December 2017 ii © 2017 Shuo Xu iii THESIS ABSTRACT Shuo Xu Master of Arts School of Journalism and Communication December 2017 Title: The Curious Case of Chinese Film Censorship: An Analysis of Film Administration Regulations The commercialization and global transformation of the Chinese film industry demonstrates that this industry has been experiencing drastic changes within the new social and economic environment of China in which film has become a commodity generating high revenues. However, the Chinese government still exerts control over the industry which is perceived as an ideological tool. They believe that the films display and contain beliefs and values of certain social groups as well as external constraints of politics, economy, culture, and ideology. This study will look at how such films are banned by the Chinese film censorship system through analyzing their essential cinematic elements, including narrative, filming, editing, sound, color, and sponsor and publisher. -

The lyrics’ presence allows filmmakers to digress from sequential imagery through introduction of nonlinear visual elements. I will analyze these surrealist film elements through several post-modern philosophies to better understand how this animated audio-visual synthesis resides in the larger world of art theory and its relationship to the popular music video. -
Journey to the Academy Awards: an Investigation of Oscar-Shortlisted and Nominated Documentaries (2014-2016) PRELIMINARY KEY
Journey to the Academy Awards: An Investigation of Oscar-Shortlisted and Nominated Documentaries (2014-2016) PRELIMINARY KEY FINDINGS By Caty Borum Chattoo, Co-Director, Center for Media & Social Impact American University School of Communication | Washington, D.C. February 2016 OVERVIEW For a documentary filmmaker, being recognized by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts & Sciences for an Oscar nomination in the Best Documentary Feature category is often the pinnacle moment in a career. Beyond the celebratory achievement, the acknowledgment can open up doors for funding and opportunities for next films and career opportunities. The formal recognition happens in three phases: It begins in December with the Academy’s announcement of a shortlist—15 films that advance to a formal nomination for the Academy’s Best Documentary Feature Award. Then, in mid-January, the final list of five official nominations is announced. Finally, at the end of February each year, the one winner is announced at the Academy Awards ceremony. Beyond a film’s narrative and technical prowess, the marketing campaigns that help a documentary make it to the shortlist and then the final nomination list are increasingly expensive and insular, from advertisements in entertainment trade outlets to lavish events to build buzz among Academy members and industry influencers. What does it take for a documentary film and its director and producer to make it to the top—the Oscars shortlist, the nomination and the win? Which film directors are recognized—in terms of race and gender? -
A Film by Kirsten Johnson
presents filmswelike CAMERAPERSON A FILM BY KIRSTEN JOHNSON A Big Mouth Productions and Fork Films production A boxing match in Brooklyn; life in postwar Bosnia and Herzegovina; the daily routine of a Nigerian midwife; an intimate family moment at home: these scenes and others are woven into Cameraperson, a tapestry of footage captured over the twenty-five-year career of documentary cinematographer Kirsten Johnson. Through a series of episodic juxtapositions, Johnson explores the relationships between image makers and their subjects, the tension between the objectivity and intervention of the camera, and the complex interaction of unfiltered reality and crafted narrative. A work that combines documentary, autobiography, and ethical inquiry, Cameraperson is both a moving glimpse into one filmmaker’s personal journey and a thoughtful examination of what it means to train a camera on the world. United States • 2016 • 102 minutes • Color • 1.85:1 aspect ratio • In English, Bosnian, Arabic, Dari, Hausa, and Fur, with English subtitles • Format: DCP Canadian bookings and inquries: mike@filmswelike.com Canadian publicity: mallory@filmswelike.com DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT The joys of being a documentary cameraperson are endless and obvious: I get to share profound intimacy with the people I film, pursue remarkable stories, be at the center of events as they unfold, travel, collaborate, and see my work engage with the world. I experience physical freedom and the chance for artistic expression and discovery every time I hold a camera. No wonder I’ve been doing it for twenty-five years and love my life. And yet, the dilemmas I face while holding my camera are formidable. -
