Then Now Forever
THEN NOW FOREVER TO OUR SHAREHOLDERS he first few months of 2014 have been T characterized by some remarkable achievements for WWE. We launched WWE Network and announced the renewal of key television agreements in the U.K. and Thailand. These business developments represent historic milestones in our effort to realize greater value from our content and to transform our business. As we prepare for the 30th anniversary of our premiere event, WrestleMania, we look forward to celebrating our enduring legacy and ushering in a new era as we blaze new trails in the media industry. During the past year, as we prepared to transform our business, we invested in content production and talent, produced new programming and entered partnerships that enhanced our brand strength. Our 2013 OIBDA results were consistent with management expectations and guidance. We continue to believe that the creation of WWE Network and the renegotiation of key global content agreements will enable us to double or triple our 2012 OIBDA of $63 million by 2015. In 2013, our potential was echoed in the equity markets, where our stock price more than doubled. WWE’s total shareholder return of WrestleMania 29 broke the record for MetLife 116% (including a $36 million dividend payout) Stadium’s highest-grossing entertainment event. exceeded the majority of our entertainment peers and key market benchmarks, such as the S&P 500 and the Russell 2000. BLAZING NEW TRAILS: WWE NETWORK Creating new programs and distributing all of our content in ways that optimize value is our most important strategic imperative. In January 2014, we announced the launch of WWE Network, the first-ever 24/7 streaming network, which represents a key pillar of our plan to drive significant earnings growth. -
First-Run Smoking Presentations in U.S. Movies 1999-2006
First-Run Smoking Presentations in U.S. Movies 1999-2006 Jonathan R. Polansky Stanton Glantz, PhD CENTER FOR TOBAccO CONTROL RESEARCH AND EDUCATION UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA, SAN FRANCISCO SAN FRANCISCO, CA 94143 April 2007 EXECUTIVE SUMMARY Smoking among American adults fell by half between 1950 and 2002, yet smoking on U.S. movie screens reached historic heights in 2002, topping levels observed a half century earlier.1 Tobacco’s comeback in movies has serious public health implications, because smoking on screen stimulates adolescents to start smoking,2,3 accounting for an estimated 52% of adolescent smoking initiation. Equally important, researchers have observed a dose-response relationship between teens’ exposure to on-screen smoking and smoking initiation: the greater teens’ exposure to smoking in movies, the more likely they are to start smoking. Conversely, if their exposure to smoking in movies were reduced, proportionately fewer teens would likely start smoking. To track smoking trends at the movies, previous analyses have studied the U.S. motion picture industry’s top-grossing films with the heaviest advertising support, deepest audience penetration, and highest box office earnings.4,5 This report is unique in examining the U.S. movie industry’s total output, and also in identifying smoking movies, tobacco incidents, and tobacco impressions with the companies that produced and/or distributed the films — and with their parent corporations, which claim responsibility for tobacco content choices. Examining Hollywood’s product line-up, before and after the public voted at the box office, sheds light on individual studios’ content decisions and industry-wide production patterns amenable to policy reform. -

A Cognitive Approach to Gestural Life in Stephen Sondheim's Musical Genres
“MY ARM IS COMPLETE”: A COGNITIVE APPROACH TO GESTURAL LIFE IN STEPHEN SONDHEIM’S MUSICAL GENRES by Diana Louise Calderazzo AB, Smith College, 1999 MA, University of Central Florida, 2005 Submitted to the Graduate Faculty of The Kenneth P. Dietrich School of Arts and Sciences in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of Pittsburgh 2012 UNIVERSITY OF PITTSBURGH DIETRICH SCHOOL OF ARTS AND SCIENCES DEPARTMENT OF THEATRE ARTS This dissertation was presented by Diana Louise Calderazzo It was defended on July 11, 2012 and approved by Marlene Behrmann, Professor, Department of Psychology, Carnegie Melon University Atillio Favorini, Professor, Department of Theatre Arts, University of Pittsburgh Kathleen George, Professor, Department of Theatre Arts, University of Pittsburgh Dissertation Director: Bruce McConachie, Professor, Department of Theatre Arts, University of Pittsburgh ii Copyright by Diana Louise Calderazzo 2012 iii “MY ARM IS COMPLETE”: A COGNITIVE APPROACH TO GESTURAL LIFE IN STEPHEN SONDHEIM’S MUSICAL GENRES Diana Louise Calderazzo, PhD University of Pittsburgh, 2012 Traditionally, musical theatre has been accepted more as a practical field than an academic one, as demonstrated by the relative scarcity of lengthy theory‐based publications addressing musicals as study topics. However, with increasing scholarly application of cognitive theories to such fields as theatre and music theory, musical theatre now has the potential to become the topic of scholarly analysis based on empirical data and scientific discussion. This dissertation seeks to contribute such an analysis, focusing on the implied gestural lives of the characters in three musicals by Stephen Sondheim, as these lives exemplify the composer’s tendency to challenge traditional audience expectations in terms of genre through his music and lyrics. -

There is a subtle difference between “to charm” and “to seduce.” The need for fame, glory, power, money, or other objects of affection drives antagonists so blindly that they’ve no hope of regaining a consciousness about their actions. If and when they do become aware, they infrequently feel remorse. -

From Real Time to Reel Time: the Films of John Schlesinger
From Real Time to Reel Time: The Films of John Schlesinger A study of the change from objective realism to subjective reality in British cinema in the 1960s By Desmond Michael Fleming Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy November 2011 School of Culture and Communication Faculty of Arts The University of Melbourne Produced on Archival Quality Paper Declaration This is to certify that: (i) the thesis comprises only my original work towards the PhD, (ii) due acknowledgement has been made in the text to all other material used, (iii) the thesis is fewer than 100,000 words in length, exclusive of tables, maps, bibliographies and appendices. Abstract The 1960s was a period of change for the British cinema, as it was for so much else. The six feature films directed by John Schlesinger in that decade stand as an exemplar of what those changes were. They also demonstrate a fundamental change in the narrative form used by mainstream cinema. Through a close analysis of these films, A Kind of Loving, Billy Liar, Darling, Far From the Madding Crowd, Midnight Cowboy and Sunday Bloody Sunday, this thesis examines the changes as they took hold in mainstream cinema. In effect, the thesis establishes that the principal mode of narrative moved from one based on objective realism in the tradition of the documentary movement to one which took a subjective mode of narrative wherein the image on the screen, and the sounds attached, were not necessarily a record of the external world. The world of memory, the subjective world of the mind, became an integral part of the narrative. -

Phd Manuscript 190429 Plain Text
The Presence of Performance and the Stakes of Serial Drama: Accrual, Transience, Companionship Elliott Logan MPhil (University of Queensland, 2013) BA, Hons (University of Queensland, 2009) BA (University of Queensland, 2007) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2018 School of Communication and Arts Abstract This thesis shows how performance is a critically neglected but crucial aspect of serial television drama as an art form. One of serial drama’s obvious storytelling attractions is its ability to involve viewers in relationships between characters over long periods of time. Such involvement takes place through a recurring structure of episodes and seasons, whose unfolding reflects the extensive, ongoing history through which interpersonal bonds form and develop, deepen and decay. The characters we watch onscreen are embodied and performed by actors. Television studies, however, has persistently overlooked screen performance, hampering appreciation of serial drama’s affinity with long-term relationships as a resource for aesthetic significance. Redressing such neglect, this thesis directs new critical attention to expressive stylistic relationships between serial form, screen performance, and the subject of companionship in some recent US serial dramas. The focus of that attention is a particular aesthetic quality: the provisional, which emerges through serial drama’s distinctive tension between permanence and transience. In the first chapter, I argue that the provisional is central to an affinity between screen performance, seriality in television drama, and companionship as an aspect of human life. Chapters Two and Three then show how the art of the provisional in particular series has been underappreciated due to television studies’ neglect of performance and expressiveness as dimensions of serial form in television fiction.
