Macciomei: Co-optation of the American Dream Independent cinema has been an aspect of the American film industry since the inception of the art form itself. The aspects and perceptions of independent film have altered drastically over the years, but in general it can be used to describe American films produced and distributed outside of the Hollywood major studio system. But as American film history has revealed time and time again, independent studios always struggle to maintain their freedom from the Hollywood industrial complex. American independent cinema has been heavily integrated with major Hollywood studios who have attempted to tap into the niche markets present in filmgoers searching for theatrical experiences outside of the mainstream. From this, we can say that the American independent film industry has a long history of co-optation, acquisition, and the stifling of competition from the major film studios present in Hollywood, all of whom pose a threat to the autonomy that is sought after in these markets by filmmakers and film audiences.

  • Etiek En Toeskouerskap Deur Die Lens Van Michael Haneke Se Amour
    LitNet Akademies Jaargang 15, Nommer 2, 2018, ISSN 1995-5928 Verantwoordelike rolprentvervaardiging: etiek en toeskouerskap deur die lens van Michael Haneke se Amour Dian Weys Dian Weys, onafhanklike navorser Opsomming Aangesien ons moderne samelewing deur die media oorweldig word, stel Michael Haneke voor dat filmmakers ‘n verantwoordelikheid het om gehore aan te moedig om aan ‘n film se betekenisskeppingproses deel te neem, veral wanneer dit kom by die uitbeelding van geweld. Wat behels hierdie verantwoordelikheid? Stanley Cavell verduidelik dat, omdat toeskouers tydens die filmkykproses onsigbaar is, film ‘n beroep op ons moderne begeerte doen, nie vir mag oor die wêreld nie, maar eerder die wens om nie mag nodig te hê nie en om nie die laste van ‘n ander te dra nie. Dit is ‘n probleem, glo ek, veral wanneer iemand anders se werklike swaarkry en lyding as bronmateriaal gebruik word, omdat filmmakers dié werklike ervaring wederregtelik in besit neem vir vermaaklikheidsonthalwe. Indien die filmkykproses ons kwytskeld daarvan om die laste van die wêreld te dra en dus verligting bied van die opneem van verantwoordelikheid, argumenteer ek dat ons nie mag wens om nie die laste van iemand anders te dra nie. Ons is, soos Emmanuel Levinas argumenteer, verantwoordelik vir mekaar. Hoe poog Haneke om, tegnies gewys, sy gehore bewus te maak van hierdie verantwoordelikheid? Judith Butler sê dat ‘n begrip van verantwoordelikheid net bereik kan word wanneer ‘n ek-heid die perke van selfkennis erken. Daarom, indien ons, soos Butler sê, net bewus kan raak van die ondeursigtigheid eie aan ons menswees wanneer ons gekonfronteer word met die ondeursigtigheid van ‘n ander, argumenteer ek dat Haneke, deur sy fragmentariese aanslag ten opsigte van die beeld, redigering en klank, sy gehoor in verwantskap plaas met ‘n film wat hul met die perke van hul selfkennis konfronteer.

My own team at Apple includes many RCA alumni, all of whom embody the fundamental values of the College.

Film encompasses all of these disciplines, and it was that unique environment that taught me to make films that were visually compelling. Of the films that I’ve subsequently made, all of them somehow link back to what I learnt at the RCA.’ Asif Kapadia (MA Film & Television, 1997) Asif Kapadia is an Academy Award and four time Bafta-winning writer/director. Following his debut feature The Warrior (2001) and Far North (2007), international box office hit Senna (2012) established Kapadia as a vital name in documentary film. This success was triumphantly surpassed by Amy (2015), the moving documentary about singer Amy Winehouse, which won an Academy Award and is now the highest grossing UK documentary of all time.
