Established on October 24, 1980, it is the responsibility of SBS's television division and is available nationally. In 2018, SBS's share of the audience was 7.9%. History Origins SBS began test broadcasts in April 1979 as SBS Ethnic Television when it showed various foreign language programs on ABV-2 Melbourne and ABN-2 Sydney on Sunday mornings. Full-time transmission began at 6.30 p.m. on 24 October 1980 (United Nations Day) as channel 0/28. At the time, SBS was broadcasting on UHF Channel 28 and VHF Channel 0. Bruce Gyngell, who introduced television to Australia back in 1956, was tasked with introducing the first batch of programs on the new station. The first program shown was a documentary about multiculturalism entitled Who are we? which was organized, produced and directed by renowned Australian journalist Peter Luck. When the show starts during the night, the opening ad will be as follows with Fanfare for the common man Aaron Copeland playing in the background: Welcome to Channel 0/28 multicultural television, Sydney and Melbourne. Section of the Special Broadcasting Service, which transmits to VHF Channel 0 with a 46.25 MHz viewpoint and on UHF Channel 28 with a 527.25 MHz viewpoint. As well as from the Hyatt Kingsgate tower in Kings Cross, Sydney, on UHF Channel 54 with a media frequency of 737.25 MHz. From the 1980s to the 1990s on October 14, 1983, the service expanded to Canberra at UHF28, Cooma and Goulburn on UHF58, while at the same time changing its name to Network 0-28. His new slogan was the long-standing return of peace home. On February 18, 1985, the station changed its name to SBS and began daytime transmission. In June, SBS expanded to Brisbane, Adelaide, Newcastle, Wollongong and the Gold Coast. On January 5, 1986, SBS stopped broadcasting at VHF0. Although many Australians at the time did not have a UHF antenna, the license The VHF was already for a year at this stage, and not all antennas worked well with the low-frequency channel 0 either. After that, on 16 March 1986, SBS began broadcasting in Perth, Mount Gambier, Loxton-Renmark, Port Pirie, Broken Hill, Toowoomba, Townsville, Bendigo, Ballarat, Traralgon and Hobart. Darwin was the last capital to receive the channel, with a local signal launched on May 20, 1994. Other cities that have launched a canal on, between and outside these days included Maryborough/Wide Bay-Burnett, Rockhampton, Mackay, Katherine, Cairns, Bunbury, Albany, Kalgoorlie, Esperance, Geraldton, Alice Springs, Tennant Creek, Mount Isa, Orange, Griffith, Mildura, Swan Hill, Wagga Wagga, Albury-Woung Shepparton was the last city to be launched by SBS in the late 1990s. Although SBS Television began broadcasting as a non-profit television network, in 1991 it began accepting and broadcasting television advertising (a controversial move at the time). They were shown between programs, not interruptions of programs. The 2000s 2001 saw the introduction of digital terrestrial television in Australia with broadcasts available for most SBS television coverage area on January 1, 2001, this was soon followed by the gradual introduction of widescreen programming. The Movie Show hosts David Stratton and Margaret Pomerantz moved to ABC in April 2004 to host a new program called At the Movies. The show was continued by four new hosts, including Megan Spencer, Jamie Leonarder, Fenella Kernebone and Mark Fennell. The final episode of The Movie Show aired in June 2006, after the show was axed. In the same month, SBS announced that it would begin showing ads during programs, unlike previous practices where ads were shown only between programs. In 2007, The Movie Show returned with a new interactive ten-minute format presented by Lisa Hensley and Michael Adams. On June 1, 2009, SBS TV was renamed SBS ONE to coincide with the launch of SBS TWO's home channel, and later that year SBS switched from the Supertext logo to the universal closed logo signature. 2010s As of December 10, 2013, SBS no longer broadcasts on analogue television and is now only available through digital TELEVISION or digital TV.

  • The Voice of China: Interactive Television and Participatory Audiences in Mainland China
    The Voice of China: Interactive Television and Participatory Audiences in Mainland China Xin Yao Thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy University of East Anglia School of Art, Media and American Studies March 2017 ©This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that no quotation from the thesis, nor any information derived there from, may be published without the author’s prior, written consent. Abstract In 2012, the most popular reality TV show in China was The Voice of China (TVoC). It is an adaptation of The Voice of Holland, the format of which has been traded to many countries. Unlike its international versions, audiences cannot vote in TVoC due to government regulations. This research focuses on audience engagement with TVoC (2012), in light of this crucial difference. To investigate how audiences engage and make meanings with the show, this thesis is the first study approaches audience engagement in China by examining the tensions between government media policies, industry strategies and audience reception. Building on existing literature on media convergence and participatory culture in the West, this thesis argues that Internet technologies alongside social media enable and stimulate individual critical thinking and creativities which resist structural constraints such as censorship and commercialisation. Although direct online political participation is censored in China, audiences express and negotiate power as ways to construct political values. These online engagements bring new perspectives to understand participatory culture and ‘empowerment’ of audiences. Using political economy frameworks, this thesis highlights the power of government media policies in shaping TV industry and media content.

    Anzac Day in Glebe, 2006 April/May 3/2006 Wreath-laying in the rain. Photo: Edwina Doe Each Anzac Day since 1994, there has been a ceremony at the Diggers’ Memorial in Foley Park. This year was no exception. About 60 people, much the same number as last year, attended this year’s service which was led by Rev Ken Cornwell, Minister and Past Moderator of the Uniting Church in Australia and a former Army chaplain. The address was given, as usual, by Glebe historian Max Solling, who stood beside a red and yellow banner, the Regimental Colours of the 55th/53rd Batallion, Royal Australian Regiment in World War II. The banner is usually kept at the back of St John’s church, together with the very fragile World War I Colours. Much-needed rain arrived a little too soon - about 10 minutes before the end of the service. But luckily we were able to dry out inside St John’s Church, where we gathered for morning tea, which was served by Louise Graber and with scones made by Robyn Solling. - Edwina Doe Max Solling’s speech at Glebe ANZAC Day Service War memorials are as old as conflicts between completed his long journey to each and every peoples.

  • Aesthetic Proximity
    volume 5 issue 9/2016 AESTHETIC PROXIMITY THE ROLE OF STYLISTIC PROGRAMME ELEMENTS IN FORMAT LOCALISATION Jolien van Keulen Vrije Universiteit Brussel Pleinlaan 9, 4th floor 1000 Brussels Belgium [email protected] Abstract: Implications of the transnationalisation of television are often studied by focusing on the localisation of the content of formatted programmes. Although television is essentially an audio-visual medium, little attention has been paid to the aesthetic aspects of television texts in relation to transnationalisation and formatting. Transnationalisation of production practices, such as through formatting, implies a transnational aesthetic. At the same time, aspects of style are specific to place, culture or audience. In this article, the localisation of stylistic programme elements is explored using a comparison of two reality format adaptations. It is argued that style plays an important role in the expression of the local in a transnational industry. Keywords: aesthetics, style, TV formats, transnationalisation, localisation, proximity 1 Introduction: TV Formats and Aesthetics Over the last few years, the scholarly attention to television formats has intensified. The focus has been mainly on the flows of formats, and on the industry and economy of the format trade.1 Recently, there has been a growing interest in the content of formats, on localisation and the cultural specificity of adaptations.2 Formats are often connected to questions of globalisation, cultural homogenisation or hybridisation. Although television is characteristically a visual medium with a unique televisual cinematography, little attention has been paid to the aesthetic aspects of television texts in relation to the transnationalisation of the medium and the rise of formats.3 In this article, television aesthetics 1 Jean K.

  • Bipolar (Un)Patriots: National Identity, Ethnic Identity and the 2006 FIFA World Cup by Jessica Carniel
    Bipolar (Un)patriots: national identity, ethnic identity and the 2006 FIFA World Cup by Jessica Carniel Introduction: when Australia went soccer-mad and mad about soccer Few would disagree with Richard Cashman’s (vii) observation, “For better or worse, sport is central to the business of being Australian and appeals to many Australians.” Almost one- third of the adult population are involved in sports or physical activities affiliated with a club or association (ABS, Participation in Sport and Physical Activities, Australia, 2002 [online]). Swimmers, athletes and football players are lauded as role models, icons and heroes for the admiration of fellow Australians. The ‘Prime Minister’s eleven’ is not a special parliamentary cabinet, but rather a cricket team. An international sporting event, specifically the Sydney 2000 Olympics Games, is remembered as one of the most significant cultural events the country has known, and marks Australia’s coming-of-age on an international scale more so than its celebration of federation in the following year. Furthermore, as Tara Madgalinski (309) argues, “the Olympic Games provided a useful cultural focal point around which images of the Australian nation could be generated.” It could thus be concluded that sport in Australia provides a clear and safe rallying point for patriotic and nationalist feeling. An interesting counterpoint to this can be seen in discussions surrounding Australia’s participation in the 2006 FIFA World Cup. Qualifying for the first time since its World Cup debut in 1974, this international soccer tournament generated an unprecedented level of excitement amongst Australians. Bookstores, particularly the larger chain stores, featured large displays of World Cup and soccer related books, dvds and cds (a ‘soundtrack’ to the World Cup is released each tournament year, featuring songs penned in support of each of the competing teams).

Towards a Taxonomy of Functions Jakob Isak Nielsen, Århus, Institute of Information and Media Studies, 2007, 321 p., Ph.D. Thesis. The dissertation is a work of film research but it recalls an academic tradition that originated in art history and musicology. Just like art historians have focused on e.g. composition or lighting, this dissertation takes a single stylistic parameter as its object of study. Within film studies this localized avenue of middle-level research has become increasingly viable under the aegis of a perspective known as ‘the poetics of cinema.’ Two branches of research within this perspective are stylistics and historical poetics (stylistic history). Rather than discussing the relationship of cinema to theories of culture, language and psychology, stylistics and historical poetics engage with localized problems of film form. This disserta- tion takes as its object of study a single stylistic device: camera movement. The thesis takes on three questions in relation to camera movement: the literature on camera movement, the history of camera movement itself within narrative cinema, and a proposal for a functional taxonomy for camera movement in narrative cinema.
