    ANNUAL REPORT 2015 16_A70_TV_Acad_Ad.qxp_Layout 1 7/8/16 11:43 AM Page 1 PROUD MEMBER OF »CBS THE TELEVISION ACADEMY 2 ©2016 CBS Broadcasting Inc. MESSAGE FROM THE CHAIRMAN AND CHIEF EXECUTIVE OFFICER AS THE QUANTITY AND QUALITY OF CONTENT HAVE INCREASED in what is widely regarded as television’s second Golden Age, so have employment opportunities for the talented men and women who create that programming. And as our industry, and the content we produce, have become more relevant, so has the relevance of the Television Academy increased as an essential resource for television professionals. In 2015, this was reflected in the steady rise in our membership — surpassing 20,000 for the first time in our history — as well as the expanding slate of Academy-sponsored activities and the heightened attention paid to such high-profile events as the Television Academy Honors and, of course, the Creative Arts Awards and the Emmy Awards. Navigating an industry in the midst of such profound change is both exciting and, at times, a bit daunting. Reimagined models of production and distribution — along with technological innovations and the emergence of new over-the-top platforms — have led to a seemingly endless surge of creativity, and an array of viewing options. As the leading membership organization for television professionals and home to the industry’s most prestigious award, the Academy is committed to remaining at the vanguard of all aspects of television. Toward that end, we are always evaluating our own practices in order to stay ahead of industry changes, and we are proud to guide the conversation for television’s future generations.

  • Immediation I
    Immediation I Edited by Erin Manning, Anna Munster, Bodil Marie Stavning Thomsen Immediation I Immediations Series Editor: SenseLab “Philosophy begins in wonder. And, at the end, when philosophic thought has done its best, the wonder remains” – A.N. Whitehead The aim of the Immediations book series is to prolong the wonder sustaining philosophic thought into transdisciplinary encounters. Its premise is that concepts are for the enacting: they must be experienced. Thought is lived, else it expires. It is most intensely lived at the crossroads of practices, and in the in-between of individuals and their singular endeavors: enlivened in the weave of a relational fabric. Co-composition. “The smile spreads over the face, as the face fits itself onto the smile” – A. N. Whitehead Which practices enter into co-composition will be left an open question, to be answered by the Series authors. Art practice, aesthetic theory, political theory, movement practice, media theory, maker culture, science studies, architecture, philosophy … the range is free. We invite you to roam it.

  • Homeland Pdf, Epub, Ebook
    HOMELAND PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Fernando Aramburu | 640 pages | 02 Apr 2020 | Pan MacMillan | 9781509858040 | English | London, United Kingdom Homeland PDF Book At eight seasons long, Homeland is already Showtime's second-longest running drama behind Shameless , which premiered nine months before Homeland. Watch on Prime Video included with Prime. With the help of her long-time mentor Saul Berenson Mandy Patinkin , Carrie fearlessly risks everything, including her personal well-being and even sanity, at every turn. Laura Played by Sarah Sokolovic A bright American journalist who works for the same organization as Carrie in Berlin, Laura ends up on the receiving end of some highly classified leaked information that has the potential to devastate U. Trivia Graffiti artists employed to create slogans for a refugee camp in season five actually wrote anti-Homeland slogans such as "Homeland is a joke, and it didn't make us laugh" on the set in protest at the show's portrayal of Muslims. Alex Gansa and Howard Gordon, along with an excellent team of writers, producers, and directors the latter of which was led by the great Lesli Linka Glatter , refused to provide solutions to problems without any. The entire last season, and certainly, the last episode, was geared for those people that have been with the show. The mastermind of an attack on the American Embassy in Islamabad, Pakistan that killed 36 Americans, Haqqani is now the head of the Taliban. Wolf was in the chief role at the department in an acting capacity for 14 months. I mean, it was just beyond emotional.

  • Applying a Rhizomatic Lens to Television Genres
    A THOUSAND TV SHOWS: APPLYING A RHIZOMATIC LENS TO TELEVISION GENRES _______________________________________ A Dissertation presented to the Faculty of the Graduate School at the University of Missouri-Columbia _______________________________________________________ In Partial Fulfillment of the Requirements for the Degree Doctor of Philosophy _____________________________________________________ by NETTIE BROCK Dr. Ben Warner, Dissertation Supervisor May 2018 The undersigned, appointed by the dean of the Graduate School, have examined the Dissertation entitled A Thousand TV Shows: Applying A Rhizomatic Lens To Television Genres presented by Nettie Brock A candidate for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy And hereby certify that, in their opinion, it is worthy of acceptance. ________________________________________________________ Ben Warner ________________________________________________________ Elizabeth Behm-Morawitz ________________________________________________________ Stephen Klien ________________________________________________________ Cristina Mislan ________________________________________________________ Julie Elman ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS Someone recently asked me what High School Nettie would think about having written a 300+ page document about television shows. I responded quite honestly: “High School Nettie wouldn’t have been surprised. She knew where we were heading.” She absolutely did. I have always been pretty sure I would end up with an advanced degree and I have always known what that would involve. The only question was one of how I was going to get here, but my favorite thing has always been watching television and movies. Once I learned that a job existed where I could watch television and, more or less, get paid for it, I threw myself wholeheartedly into pursuing that job. I get to watch television and talk to other people about it. That’s simply heaven for me. A lot of people helped me get here.

  • Characterization of Carrie Mathison in Alex Gansa and Howard Gordon’S the Homeland TV Series (Season One)
    Journal of Literature, Languages and Linguistics www.iiste.org ISSN 2422-8435 An International Peer-reviewed Journal Vol.43, 2018 Characterization of Carrie Mathison in Alex Gansa and Howard Gordon’s the Homeland TV Series (Season One) Vishnu Prabhu K.S. Dr. Laxmi Dhar Dwivedi Department of English, School of Social Sciences and Languages, VIT University, Vellore, T.N. Abstract Carrie Mathison’s powerful role in Alex Gansa and Howard Gordon’s Homeland TV series has evoked a great literary interest in the genre of Crime Drama. Carrie’s ‘omnipresent’ and ‘omniscient’ role in the TV series has indeed been instrumental in ‘Characterization’ in Homeland American television series does play a pivotal role in determining the success of the plot? Through the ‘Metamorphosis’ effect (the change in individual characters), Gansa and Howard the creators of the television series have evidently evoked mixed feelings between various characters and juxtaposed their roles at various instances. Introduction The Homeland TV Series released in 2011 has been for nominated for numerous awards and has importantly won five golden globe awards including the best actress for the female lead being awarded to Claire Danes (Carrie Mathison). It is the construction of this great character armed with a powerful narrative voice that has yielded in the success of the series, which is critically important for its vitality among the overall viewership. According to E.M. Forster (1967) the round characters play an active role in the entire course of the novel or the television series episode. Carrie Mathison’s role as a round character takes center stage in the entire season as it is upon her actions the plot is completely constructed.

Shorter than most television episodes and distributed on online platforms like YouTube, web series both draw on and deviate from traditional TV storytelling strategies. In this thesis, I compare the production and storytelling strategies of "derivative" web series based on broadcast television shows with "original" web series created for the Internet, focusing on the evolution of scripted entertainment content online.
