Issues of Image and Performance in the Beatles' Films
“All I’ve got to do is Act Naturally”: Issues of Image and Performance in the Beatles’ Films Submitted by Stephanie Anne Piotrowski, AHEA, to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English (Film Studies), 01 October 2008. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which in not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. (signed)…………Stephanie Piotrowski ……………… Piotrowski 2 Abstract In this thesis, I examine the Beatles’ five feature films in order to argue how undermining generic convention and manipulating performance codes allowed the band to control their relationship with their audience and to gain autonomy over their output. Drawing from P. David Marshall’s work on defining performance codes from the music, film, and television industries, I examine film form and style to illustrate how the Beatles’ filmmakers used these codes in different combinations from previous pop and classical musicals in order to illicit certain responses from the audience. In doing so, the role of the audience from passive viewer to active participant changed the way musicians used film to communicate with their fans. I also consider how the Beatles’ image changed throughout their career as reflected in their films as a way of charting the band’s journey from pop stars to musicians, while also considering the social and cultural factors represented in the band’s image. -

“Nothing Is Real”: The Beatles as Virtual Performers Oxford Handbooks Online “Nothing Is Real”: The Beatles as Virtual Performers Philip Auslander and Ian Inglis The Oxford Handbook of Music and Virtuality Edited by Sheila Whiteley and Shara Rambarran Print Publication Date: Mar Subject: Music, Music Media 2016 Online Publication Date: Mar DOI: 10.1093/oxfordhb/9780199321285.013.13 2016 Abstract and Keywords The conventional narrative of the Beatles’ history follows the group from their days as young club performers to early retirement from the stage in summer 1966, prompted by their growing dissatisfaction with the constraints of live performance. When, in 2009, the video game The Beatles: Rock Band was released, it seemed the group had been reborn as virtual performers after an absence of several decades. However, this chapter suggests the Beatles had already become virtual performers more than forty years earlier. Close inspection of their activities during the 1960s reveals there were numerous occasions on which the group participated in musical scenarios, through their movies, animated cartoons, and promotional films, that were in fact effective simulations of the conventional performer-audience encounter. The career of the Beatles as virtual performers thus began many years before their rebirth in the world of digital animation. Keywords: mediatization, Beatles, television, movies, simulation, virtual, performance, audiences THE narrative of the Beatles is one of the most familiar in popular music’s history. It tells us that after years of limited success in the clubs of Liverpool and Hamburg, the group became the most influential and successful musical force of the 1960s; its singles and albums were, and remain, the definitive soundtrack of the decade. -
Yellow Submarine George Dunning, 1968
EL SUBMARINO AMARILLO Yellow submarine George Dunning, 1968 LA BANDA DE LOS CORAZONES PSICODÉLICOS El submarino amarillo es un film de animación producido por la King Features como extensión de la serie televisiva The Beatles, emitida en Estados Unidos entre 1965 y 1969. Siguiendo el esquema de la serie, que consistía en coger una canción de la banda y desarrollar cualquier historia sugerida por el título, el argumento del largometraje se compuso en base a dos composiciones de The Beatles. Yellow submarine cuenta la odisea de los cuatro músicos de Liverpool que se embarcan en un submarino amarillo para recorrer mares fantásticos poblados por monstruos y otras amenazas. Fue concebida y desarrollada principalmente por el escritor norteamericano Lee Minoff. Stg. Pepper cuenta la peripecia del grupo tras su llegada a Pimientalandia, donde deben rescatar mediante la música a una población férreamente sometida por un tirano azul. Es el resultado del parcheo, que no colaboración, de un número indeterminado de guionistas. En última instancia, parece que buena parte de las soluciones narrativas surgieron de la improvisación de los dibujantes. La génesis y elaboración del film se explican con más detalle en la segunda parte de este texto, titulada La sombra del submarino. Liberada de la presencia pueril y esperpéntica de los Beatles de carne y hueso, El submarino amarillo es una de las mejores expresiones del arte psicodélico. El término psicodelia es un neologismo compuesto por las raíces griegas ψυχή (psique=alma) y δήλη (dele=manifestación), lo que permite aplicarlo a todo intento de mostrar lo más recóndito de nuestra mente, algo imposible con las palabras y las figuras convencionales. -

Career details to March 2014 Peter prepares to present an award to Ant and Dec at the NTV Award Ceremony at the Al bert Hall, ably assisted by Valerie Singleton and John Noakes Peter Purves Freelance TV Presenter Writer, Producer, Director and Presentation Consultant www.peterpurves.net [email protected] Career to Early 2009 Peter is one of Britain’s most experienced TV presenters of “live” magazine programmes, with literally hundreds of credits to his name. He is probably best known for his work on the BBC TV children’s programme, Blue Peter , which he presented for ten and a half years from 1967 to 1978. As part of what is affectionately known as the “Dream Team” (together with Valerie Singleton and John Noakes) he appeared in more than 850 episodes of what has become the longest continuously running children’s TV programme of all-time. His career began in the theatre, in what was known as weekly rep., with the Renaissance Theatre Company, at Her Majesty’s Theatre, Barrow-in-Furness. It was a time he remembers with great affection, as the best training, the worst paid, the hardest work and the happiest two working years he has ever known. From the early 1960’s he appeared in many of the then current and popular television series for both the BBC and ITV, and in 1965 he joined the original Doctor Who , William Hartnell for a year as his sidekick in the still popular series. He occasionally attends the conventions held around the world for the show’s aficionados. -
