Die blunder maakt pijnlijk duidelijk hoezeer de organisatie achter de feiten aanloopt. Reden voor de dis- kwalificatie is in beide gevallen dat er te veel Engels wordt gesproken in de films, ook al heet de categorie officieel niet meer de Best Foreign Language Oscar. Lionheart van Genevieve Nnaji was de eerste Nigeriaanse inzending ooit voor de Oscars. De film gaat over een vrouw in een door mannen gedomineerde wereld die haar vaders bedrijf voor de ondergang probeert te behoeden. Per- sonages spreken afwisselend Igbo, een van de drie meest gesproken talen in Nigeria, en dan weer Engels, de officiële taal van het land. In Joy, over een Nigeriaanse vrouw die in Wenen het slachtoffer wordt van vrouwenhandelaren, wordt een mix van Duits en Engels gesproken. De regie is van Sudabeh Mortezai, een Oosten- rijkse filmmaker met een Duits-Iraanse achter- grond. De Amerikaanse regisseur Ava DuVernay rea- geerde op Twitter verbolgen op de uitsluiting van Lionheart: “Zullen we landen gewoon eens de kans geven de film in te sturen waarvan zij vinden dat het hun belangrijkste film van het afgelopen jaar is?” De eis dat er niet overwegend Engels mag worden gesproken in de films uit zo ongeveer alle landen van de wereld, is ouderwets en ach- terhaald. Het sluit namelijk al die personages en verhalen van mensen uit die niet de taal spre- ken van het land waarin ze leven. Dan kun je dus nooit een Oscar winnen met een verhaal over vrouwenhandel in Wenen, want de slachtoffers van vrouwenhandel zullen nooit overwegend van Oostenrijkse afkomst zijn. Het idee achter de bepaling dat er niet over- wegend Engels mag worden gesproken, was oorspronkelijk om de vaak kleinere films uit de rest van de wereld te beschermen tegen de omvangrijke filmindustrie en de films met gro- tere budgeten uit het Verenigd Koninkrijk. Maar de realiteit is complexer geworden. Films uit een bepaald land zouden niet verplicht in de moedertaal van dat land gemaakt moeten wor- den. Mag wel. Moet niet. Ook al dromen som- mige mensen nog steeds van een mythisch wit avondland waar mannen zwaarden uit stenen trekken en vrouwen de hele dag liggen te baren, “De beste datingtruc sinds de begindagen van de cinema.” de realiteit is dat we in een geglobaliseerde wereld leven die godzijdank dichter bij de cultu- rele mix van Blade Runner ligt dan bij de mono- cultuur van, zeg, de smurfen. Taal is niet meer Marriage Story 4 18 gebonden aan grond en grenzen. De Academy zou over die realiteit na moeten denken. Het is simpel. Hou de categorie in stand. Schrap de taaleis.

  • Return from Exile: How Extreme Metal Culture Found Its Niche with Dethklok and Postnetwork TV
    Journal of Popular Music Studies, Volume 27, Issue 2, Pages 163–183 Return from Exile: How Extreme Metal Culture Found Its Niche with Dethklok and Postnetwork TV Joe Tompkins Allegheny College In the premiere episode of Metalocalypse, an original animated series entering its fifth season on the Adult Swim channel,1 300, 000 metalheads travel to the Artic Circle to witness Dethklok, “the world’s greatest cultural force,” as they perform a coffee jingle for the Duncan Hills Coffee Corporation. Despite adverse conditions and a mere single song set list, thousands of fans risk life and limb for the chance to witness the legendary death metal band as they perform a raucous musical ode to the virtues of “ultimate flavor.” As one reporter on the scene observes, “Never before have so many people traveled so far for such a short song.” In a further testament to the band’s outstanding popularity and market value, concertgoers eagerly sign “pain waivers” excusing Dethklok from legal liability in the all too likely event they are somehow “burned, lacerated, eaten alive, poisoned, de-boned, crushed, or hammer-smashed” during the show. Meanwhile, the performance launches the international coffee mogul Duncan Hills to monopoly status, “obliterating” the competition. When asked by news reporters if such an act of corporate sponsorship means that Dethklok is “selling out,” frontman Nathan Explosion growlingly rejoins: “We are here to make coffee metal. We will make everything metal. Blacker than the blackest black . times infinity.” Touting “the biggest

Using a mix of actors and non-actors, the small crew used documentary techniques to give the experience of a true story unfolding in real time. Often filming in four to five locations a day and using a script in which specific dialogue was scarce but the intention for each scene was detailed, actors improvised fully in the moment to allow their characters to develop naturally. What resulted was a team in-sync and fully ready to capture the chaotic world around them. 49 west 27th street 7th floor new york, ny 10001 tel 212 924 6701 fax 212 924 6742 www.magpictures.com 1.

September 2021 Mehr Informationen zum Buch gibt es auf www.penguinrandomhouse.de Inhalte Buch lesen Mehr zum Autor Zum Buch "Chas's stunning photos bring back the experience." —Francis Ford Coppola</w:p><w:p><w:pPr><w:pStyle w:val="ds12f" /></w:pPr>Hired in 1976 by Francis Ford Coppola as the still photographer for his masterpiece Apocalypse Now, Chas Gerretsen’s private archive of hundreds of photographs propels readers immediately into the chaos and drama surrounding one of the most important movies ever made. Gerretsen was a renowned freelance photographer who had previously worked in Chile and Vietnam when he got the call from Coppola, who was looking for a combat photographer for a war movie. Given unprecedented access to the film’s stars, extras, crew, and legendary behind-the-scenes drama he spent six months in the Philippines, shooting thousands of images. Culled from that archive, these full-color photographs offer an intimate glimpse of the turmoil and excitement of a Hollywood spectacle rising out of the unpredictable climate of the Philippine rainforest. Capturing the star power of Marlon Brando, Martin Sheen, and Dennis Hopper, as well as the sprawling sets, he takes us into the beauty of the Southeast Asian jungle and shows us how its inhabitants were incorporated into the filming. Throughout the book, Gerretsen’s astute reflections of his experience on set are as fascinating as his photography. While Apocalypse Now remains one of the most critically acclaimed movies of all time, the making of the film is equally legendary.

Viaceré z nich vzbudili záujem po celom svete a prostredníctvom licencií boli predané do rozličných krajín. Hoci bolo nevyhnutné dodržiavať základné rysy formátu, každá jedna národná adaptácia sa v niečom musela prispôsobiť publiku, prípadne dala programu iný ráz.

Annotation Reality show is a television genre which includes various broadcasts. Many of them excited worldwide interest and were sold to diverse countries. Even thought it’s inevitable to respect the basic format, every country had to adapt to their own spectators or modified the character of a TV show in some way. This thesis deals with the slovakian versions of selected foreign reality show formats. Concretely it refers to Farmer Wants a Wife, Who Wants to Marry My Son, Anno (The Visitors in slovak) and Survivor (The Island in slovak).

  • Increasing Contribution of News Photo Agencies Into Journalism by Evolving Technology
    The Online Journal of Communication and Media – April 2015 Volume 1, Issue 2 INCREASING CONTRIBUTION OF NEWS PHOTO AGENCIES INTO JOURNALISM BY EVOLVING TECHNOLOGY Assist.Prof. Dr. Kerim KARAGÖZ1, Prof.Dr. Özer KANBUROĞLU2 1,2Kocaeli University, Turkey [email protected],[email protected] Abstract:The publication of news photos in the journals directly begun in the beginning of 20th Century although news photos had emerged as a profession in the last quarter of 19th century. At the same time, the photos taken immediately distributed among and used in different media organs. In the beginning, the news were distributed by using a specific technique in the emerging agencies, before the photos. The economic reasons were determining factors at establishment of the news agencies in different European countries and in Northern America. Before that, hand-written commercial news letters were disseminated by copying them again by hand-writing. The qualified news coming on time in commercial and capitalist system became important as much as production. Thus, the new circles and groups emerged which were ready to pay for reaching quickly to news. When those increased in numbers, it was realized that the dissemination of news to large areas could be a profitable job. Consequently, the ‘news agencies’ as institutions emerged as a response to a rising need. Today, the news agencies with specific responsibilities in the global communication network just transmit the news and visual material. But some agencies only work on the photos. These agencies transmit photos to all news centers in a short time by connecting with a contracted photographer in that region, or in a region close to the event.

    Ladder to Damascus a film by Mohamad Malas سلم إلى دمشق (Ladder to Damascus (Sulam Ila Dimashq Content Ghalia is possessed by Zeina’s spirit. Haunted by the life of a girl, who drowned the day she was born, Ghalia travels to Damascus, where she studies acting. There, she meets Fouad, an aspiring film-maker who becomes fascinated by Ghalia's duality. He takes her under his wing and helps her find a place to live.

  • 1 Cinematic Friendships: Intercessors, Collectives, Perturbations
    1 Cinematic Friendships: Intercessors, Collectives, Perturbations Independent and experimental cinema in Arabic-speaking countries, as elsewhere, often arises from affinities, shared interests, and temporary collaborations, character- ized by fluidity and adaptability. Friendship is a useful way to think about the flexible and sometimes nonlocal relationships in which experimenting cinema and media art get made, similar to the term hubs that Thomas Burkhalter uses to analyze the Beirut music scene’s local-transnational networks.1 This chapter cannot survey all the sites for training, production, exhibition, distri- bution, and archiving of experimental media art, in the broad sense this book under- stands, for there are so many organizations. Instead I present some case studies of cinematic friendships, grounded in concepts of self-organization, metastability, pertur- bation, and individuation. The guiding question is, “Looking at the various kinds of infrastructures for experiments in Arab cinema, how can we tell which ones best sup- port and sustain an experimental and creative practice?” It’s practically a truism that top-down institutional structures are bad for creativity.
