  • Las Aportaciones Al Cine De Steven Spielberg Son Múltiples, Pero Sobresale Como Director Y Como Productor
    Steven Spielberg Las aportaciones al cine de Steven Spielberg son múltiples, pero sobresale como director y como productor. La labor de un productor de cine puede conllevar cierto control sobre las diversas atribuciones de una película, pero a menudo es poco más que aportar el dinero y los medios que la hacen posible sin entrar mucho en los aspectos creativos de la misma como el guión o la dirección. Es por este motivo que no me voy a detener en la tarea de Spielberg como productor más allá de señalar sus dos productoras de cine y algunas de sus producciones o coproducciones a modo de ejemplo, para complementar el vistazo a la enorme influencia de Spielberg en el mundo cinematográfico: En 1981 creó la productora de cine “Amblin Entertainment” junto con Kathleen Kenndy y Frank Marshall. El logo de esta productora pasaría a ser la famosa silueta de la bicicleta con luna llena de fondo de “ET”, la primera producción de la firma dirigida por Spielberg. Otras películas destacadas con participación de esta productora y no dirigidas por Spielberg son “Gremlins”, “Los Goonies”, “Regreso al futuro”, “Esta casa es una ruina”, “Fievel y el nuevo mundo”, “¿Quién engañó a Roger Rabbit?”, “En busca del Valle Encantado”, “Los picapiedra”, “Casper”, “Men in balck”, “Banderas de nuestros padres” & “Cartas desde Iwo Jima” o las series de televisión “Cuentos asombrosos” y “Urgencias” entre muchas otras películas y series. En 1994 fundaría con Jeffrey Katzenberg y David Geffen la productora y distribuidora DreamWorks, que venderían al estudio Viacom en 2006 tras participar en éxitos como “Shrek”, “American Beauty”, “Náufrago”, “Gladiator” o “Una mente maravillosa”.

SI: Thank you very much for sitting for this interview today. Arnold Spielberg: My pleasure. SI: To begin, could you tell us where and when you were born? AS: I was born February 6, 1917, in Cincinnati, Ohio. SH: Could you tell us a little bit about your father and how his family came to settle in Cincinnati, Ohio? AS: Okay. My father was an orphan, born in the Ukraine, in a little town called Kamenets- Podolski, in the Ukraine. … His parents died, I don’t know of what, when he was about two years old and he was raised by his uncle. His uncle’s name was Avrahom and his father’s name was Meyer Pesach, and so, I became Meyer Pesach Avrahom. So, I was named after both his uncle and his father, okay, and my father came to this country after serving six years in the Russian Army as a conscript. That is usually what happens to people. … Also, when he was raised on his uncle’s farm, he rode horses and punched cattle. So, he was sort of a Russian cowboy.

    View metadata, citation and similar papers at core.ac.uk brought to you by CORE provided by Surugadai University Academic Information Repository Steven Spielberg's Early Career as a Television Director at Universal Studios 著者名(英) Tomohiro Shimahara journal or 駿河台大学論叢 publication title number 51 page range 47-61 year 2016-01 URL http://doi.org/10.15004/00001463 Steven Spielberg’s Early Career as a Television Director at Universal Studios SHIMAHARA Tomohiro Introduction Steven Spielberg (1946-) is one of the greatest movie directors and producers in the history of motion picture. In his four-decade career, Spielberg has been admired for making blockbusters such as Jaws (1975), Close Encounters of the Third Kind (1977), E.T.: the Extra-Terrestrial (1982), Indiana Jones series (1981, 1984, 1989, 2008), Schindler’s List (1993), Jurassic Park series (1993, 1997, 2001, 2015), Saving Private Ryan (1998), Lincoln (2012) and many other smash hits. Spielberg’s life as a filmmaker has been so brilliant that it looks like no one believes that there was any moment he spent at the bottom of the ladder in the movie industry. Much to the surprise of the skeptics, Spielberg was once just another director at Universal Television for the first couple years after launching himself into the cinema making world. Learning how to make good movies by trial and error, Spielberg made a breakthrough with his second feature-length telefilm Duel (1971) at the age of 25 and advanced into the big screen, where he would direct and produce more than 100 movies, including many great hits and some commercial or critical failures, in the next 40-something years.

  • Steven Spielberg Scrive E Dirige Il Suo Primo Lungometraggio Amatoriale, Firelight (1964), Che Sarà Proiettato in Un Cinema Cittadino
    ESORDI DI UNA CARRIERA MOLTO PROMETTENTE • Dopo vari mediometraggi, appartenenti ai generi più disparati (western, noir, avventura), il diciassettenne Steven Spielberg scrive e dirige il suo primo lungometraggio amatoriale, Firelight (1964), che sarà proiettato in un cinema cittadino. Il budget del film è di 500 dollari . • Qui, per la prima volta, Spielberg si confronta con il genere della fantascienza . Il tema di Firelight sarà ampiamente ripreso e approfondito nel successivo Incontri ravvicinati del terzo tipo (Close Encounters of the Third Kind , 1977 ). • È lo stesso Spielberg a comporre la colonna sonora di Firelight , con il suo clarinetto, mentre la madre, Leah , un tempo promettente pianista, aggiunge un brano al piano. La Arcadia High School , la scuola pubblica frequentata da Steven e dalle sorelle a Phoenix , ha poi ricreato l’intera colonna sonora. • Il film è realizzato durante i week-end . Molte scene saranno girate a casa di Spielberg e nel suo garage. • Nel cast, compare anche la sorella del futuro regista, Nancy Spielberg. Oggi, Firelight è purtroppo considerato un film perduto. • O meglio, ci sono rimasti soltanto alcuni frammenti dell’intera pellicola. Tali estratti testimoniano già un precoce, seppure ancora grossolano, talento visivo da parte dell’esordiente regista . Firelight (1964) • Il giovane Spielberg attende l’inizio della premiere del suo primo lungometraggio . • Circa 500 persone assisteranno alla prima del film. Il costo del biglietto sarà di un dollaro. Alcune immagini dal film… • Durante il periodo trascorso in Arizona a causa del lavoro di Arnold, l’unione tra i coniugi Spielberg si deteriora . In un tentativo di salvare il matrimonio dal naufragio, la famiglia decide di trasferirsi a Saratoga, in California .
