Unlike other short book series, Wiley-Blackwell Studies in Film and Television works from a broad field of prospective film and television programs, selected less for their adherence to defi- nitions of “art” than for their resonance with audiences. From Top Hat to Hairspray, from early sitcoms to contemporary forensic dramas, the series encompasses a range of film and television material that reflects diverse genres, forms, styles and periods. The texts explored here are known and recognized worldwide for their ability to generate discussion and debate about evolving media indus- tries as well as, crucially, representations and conceptualizations of gender, class, citizenship, race, consumerism, and capitalism, and other facets of identity and experience. This series is designed to communi- cate these themes clearly and effectively to media studies students at all levels while also introducing groundbreaking scholarship of the very highest caliber. These are the films and shows we really want to watch, the new “teachable canon” of alternative classics that range from silent film to CSI. 99781405178112_1_pretoc.indd781405178112_1_pretoc.indd iiii 111/4/20091/4/2009 33:26:18:26:18 PPMM MIAMI VICE JAMES LYONS A John Wiley & Sons, Ltd., Publication 99781405178112_1_pretoc.indd781405178112_1_pretoc.indd iiiiii 111/4/20091/4/2009 33:26:18:26:18 PPMM This edition first published 2010 © 2010 James Lyons Blackwell Publishing was acquired by John Wiley & Sons in February 2007.

Calderone is already under investiga- tion by the Miami-Dade police department’s organized crime bureau vice unit (aka Miami Vice). The lead investigator is James “Sonny” Crockett (Don Johnson), who loses his partner Eddie Rivera (Jimmy Smits) in a car bomb. Tubbs, masquerading initially as his dead brother Rafael, is cajoled into working with Crockett by bureau Lieutenant Lou Rodriguez (Gregory Sierra). Rodriguez is subsequently shot dead and replaced by Lieutenant Martin Castillo (Edward James Olmos). In contrast to the sharp-suited Tubbs, Crockett adopts an unshaven, fashionably disheveled appearance, part of his disguise as drug runner Sonny Burnett. A former college football star and a Vietnam vet, Crockett is recently separated from his wife and child and lives undercover on his boat, The St Vitus Dance, together with his pet alligator, Elvis. The other key members of the vice bureau are detective pairings Gina Calabrese (Saundra Santiago) and Trudy Joplin (Olivia Brown), and Stan Switek (Michael Talbott) and Larry Zito (John Diehl), who work principally to support investigations led by Crockett and Tubbs. Early episodes also 99781405178112_4_000.indd781405178112_4_000.indd 1 111/4/20091/4/2009 55:57:08:57:08 PPMM 2 INTRODUCTION include Lester Kosko (Julio Oscar Mechoso) as a surveillance and electronics expert. The major recurring characters are Izzy Moreno (Martin Ferraro) and Neville “Noogie” Lamont (Charlie Barnett) as small-time crooks/conmen/informers. Taking advantage of a law that allows bureau officers to appropriate seized criminal possessions, Crockett and Tubbs (the latter undercover as Rico Cooper) furnish themselves with the fast car and designer attire necessary to mix in wealthy crime circles. “Burnett” and “Cooper,” aided by knowledge gleaned from informants, move through the criminal underworld, working to inveigle traffickers of vice (drugs, arms, prostitution) into incriminating themselves, thus effecting seiz- ures and arrests. Gina and Trudy also undertake undercover work, most typically as prostitutes, gaining the trust of victims and felons. Miami Vice debuted on US television in September 1984, supported by a trailer boasting that “the cop show has just graduated to the 1980s.” Trailers are by design exercises in hubris, but, at least on this occasion, the show lived up to the hype; few shows have updated so radically the look and sound of broadcast television in the way that Miami Vice did in its first season on NBC. Additionally, few shows have been identified more closely with the spirit of the decade; Miami Vice is an iconic product of the 1980s, as much a part of the cultural fabric of the period as the Rubik’s cube, Pac-Man, E.T., or Michael Jackson’s Thriller. Miami Vice caught the popular imagination to become a cultural phenomenon, making stars out of lead actors Don Johnson and Philip Michael Thomas, and exerting a considerable influence on men’s fashion and apparel, as the “Miami Vice look” stretched from couture to mainstream trends in fabrics, cuts, and colors, to the sales of Ray-Ban sunglasses and the sporting of “designer stubble.” The show also impacted upon popular music, with record- breaking best-selling TV soundtrack albums, and with songs featured on the show invariably storming to the top of the charts.

NEW ANGLE - AN RV Is speeding smack-dab through the pasture, no road in sight. A bit out of place, to say the least. It's an old 70's era Winnebago with chalky white paint and Bondo spots. A bumper sticker for the Good Sam Club is stuck to the back. The Winnebago galumphs across the landscape, scattering cows. It catches a wheel and sprays a rooster tail of red dirt. INT.

  • THE VIDEO GAME INDUSTRY the Video Game Industry (Often
    THE VIDEO GAME INDUSTRY The video game industry (often referred to as interactive entertainment) is the economic sector involved with the development, marketing and sales of video games. It encompasses dozens of job disciplines and employs thousands of people worldwide. Game industry value chain The game industry value chain is made up of six connected and distinctive layers: 1. Capital and publishing layer: involved in paying for development of new titles and seeking returns through licensing of the titles. 2. Product and talent layer: includes developers, designers and artists, who may be working under individual contracts or as part of in-house development teams. 3. Production and tools layer: generates content production tools, game development middleware, customizable game engines, and production management tools. 4. Distribution layer: or the "publishing" industry, involved in generating and marketing catalogs of games for retail and online distribution. 5. Hardware (or Virtual Machine or Software Platform) layer: or the providers of the underlying platform, which may be console-based, accessed through online media, or accessed through mobile devices such as the iPhone. This layer now includes non-hardware platforms such as virtual machines (e.g. Java or Flash), or software platforms such as browsers or even further Facebook, etc. 6. End-users layer: or the users/players of the games.[2] [edit]Disciplines Latest trends in the game industry A fairly recent practice, since the mid-1990s, of the video game industry is the rise of game players as developers of game content. The rise of video game players as fourth-party developers of game content allows for more open source models of game design, development and engineering.

PUB TYPE Speeches/Conference Papers (150) -- Reports - Research /Technical (143) EDRS PRICE MF01/PC01 Plus Postage. DESCRIPTORS *Acquired Immune Deficiency Syndrome; *Commercial Television; Cultural Context; *Homosexuality; *Mass Media Role; Stereotypes; Television Research IDENTIFIERS *Miami Vice (Television Series); Prime Time Television; Television Criticism ABSTRACT In "God's Work," an episode of the "Miami Vice" television series in which a gay character comes home to reunite with a childhood friend and ex-lover who is dying of AIDS, the show is at odds with itself over the issue of sexuality and AIDS. At one level, that of the "coming-out" story of the main character, it presents the gay character in a positive light, and sets him up for a positive reception through a number of narrative and gender-related codes. In contrast, through its use of production related codes, it presents his relationship els incomplete, and his sexuality as a priscn, with the final moral message being that the price of virtue is solitude. These same production codes present persons with AIDS as being stigmatized aliens who cannot be approached closer than at arm's length, while at the same time arguing through the narrative for sympathy and understanding for persons with AIDS.
