  • Constructing, Programming, and Branding Celebrity on Reality Television
    UNIVERSITY OF CALIFORNIA Los Angeles Producing Reality Stardom: Constructing, Programming, and Branding Celebrity on Reality Television A dissertation submitted in partial satisfaction of the Requirements for the degree Doctor of Philosophy in Film and Television by Lindsay Nicole Giggey 2017 © Copyright by Lindsay Nicole Giggey 2017 ABSTRACT OF THE DISSERTATION Producing Reality Stardom: Constructing, Programming, and Branding Celebrity on Reality Television by Lindsay Nicole Giggey Doctor of Philosophy in Film and Television University of California, Los Angeles, 2017 Professor John T. Caldwell, Chair The popular preoccupation with celebrity in American culture in the past decade has been bolstered by a corresponding increase in the amount of reality programming across cable and broadcast networks that centers either on established celebrities or on celebrities in the making. This dissertation examines the questions: How is celebrity constructed, scheduled, and branded by networks, production companies, and individual participants, and how do the constructions and mechanisms of celebrity in reality programming change over time and because of time? I focus on the vocational and cultural work entailed in celebrity, the temporality of its production, and the notion of branding celebrity in reality television. Dissertation chapters will each focus on the kinds of work that characterize reality television production cultures at the network, production company, and individual level, with specific attention paid to programming focused ii on celebrity making and/or remaking. Celebrity is a cultural construct that tends to hide the complex labor processes that make it possible. This dissertation unpacks how celebrity status is the product of a great deal of seldom recognized work and calls attention to the hidden infrastructures that support the production, maintenance, and promotion of celebrity on reality television.

  • Arturo Toscanini and Don Gillis in Rehearsal, Don Gillis Collection, University of North Texas
    Arturo Toscanini and Don Gillis in rehearsal, Don Gillis Collection, University of North Texas. Reproduced with permission. MARK MCKNIGHT, SUSANNAH CLEVELAND Rediscovering “Toscanini: The Man Behind the Legend” The following article is based on the authors’ presentation at the ARSC Conference in Austin, TX, April 2005. The focus is on the Don Gillis Collection, which the University of North Texas (UNT) Music Library acquired after Gillis’s death in 1978. Gillis, a longtime associate of Arturo Toscanini, served as the conductor’s assistant and the producer for the NBC Symphony broadcast concerts from 1944 until they ended ten years later. The photographs that illustrate this article are from the collection and are reproduced with permission. __________________________________________________________________________________ he story of Arturo Toscanini’s rise to fame as one of history’s most celebrated con- ductors is well known. Having spent the first several years of his professional life in T the opera pit, Toscanini then gained a reputation for his symphonic conducting, serving as principal conductor of the New York Philharmonic from 1929 to 1936. When he left that post and retired to his native Italy, his American fans believed they would never again see the maestro conduct here. At the age of 70, however, when most individuals are happily settled into retirement, Toscanini returned to the podium, this time in a completely new and, in some ways controversial, forum, as head of the recently organized NBC Symphony. He would remain with the orchestra until his final departure in 1954. Toscanini died three years later in New York, just two months before his ninetieth birthday.

    `1 | P a g e "The History of NBC New York Television Studios, 1935-1956" Volume 1 of 2 By Bobby Ellerbee And Eyes Of A Generation.com Preface and Acknowledgement This is the first known chronological listing that details the conversions of NBC’s Radio City studios at 30 Rockefeller Plaza in New York City. Also included in this exclusive presentation by and for Eyes Of A Generation, are the outside performance theaters and their conversion dates to NBC Television theaters. This compilation gives us the clearest and most concise guide yet to the production and technical operations of television’s early days and the network that pioneered so much of the new medium. As you will see, many shows were done as “remotes” in NBC radio studios with in-house mobile camera units, and predate the official conversion date which signifies the studio now has its own control room and stage lighting. Eyes Of A Generation, would like to offer a huge thanks to the many past and present NBC people that helped, but most especially to Frank Merklein (NBC 1947-1961) Joel Spector (NBC 1965-2001), Dennis Degan (NBC 2003 to present), historian David Schwartz (GSN) and Gady Reinhold (CBS 1966 to present), for their first hand knowledge, photos and help.
