  • DECEMBER 2016 Fran Wakefield Hunter Inducted Into the Socal Sr
    DECEMBER 2016 Fran Wakefield Hunter Inducted into the SoCal Sr. Hall of Fame The sport of tennis encompasses so many different aspects from players to organizers, team captains, officials, tournament directors, media specialists, ath- letic trainers, ball kids, manufacturing reps and many more. Most people in- volved in the “sport of a lifetime,” at one time or another, played at some level of tennis and eventually fell in love with the game, despite the inevitable highs and lows. As competitive players, some people reach a very high level and con- tinue on to the pros. Others play high school, college and maybe try the pros, yet only a few make it to the top of the tennis pinnacle. Some become good recrea- tional players and perhaps get involved with league tennis and possibly win a sectional or league championship. Overall, tennis offers many paths to success. Yet in the end, what is tennis achievement all about? BTC member Fran Wakefield Hunter knows as she was recently inducted into the Southern Califor- nia Senior Hall of Fame for her lifetime dedication to tennis in many areas. At Balboa Tennis Club, Fran has been a regular competitor on the courts even into SCTA Sr. Hall of Fame inductee Fran Wakefield Hunter her eighties and along the way, has never stopped giving back to the game. Throughout a span of 40 continuous years, Fran was a USTA Circuit Chair, San Diego District Executive Board Member, USTA League Captain, Tournament Desk Coordinator and SCTA Wom- en’s Intersectional Organizer on all levels, where she was a pioneer in bringing about the gold, silver and bronze ball award system to senior tennis.

We had decided on a tour of inspection of our holdings to see what damage the storm had wrought. And the creek was still there, still wandering its earnest, four-foot-wide way through the meadow, which was spongy underfoot with the gray-green, dead-alive promise of what would soon be grass. The rocks had not been harmed, we noted with satisfaction, and the pool beside the willow was still a pool, despite what must have been a temptation to go and join the sea.

  • Embodying Character: Psychological and Bodily Performance and the Cinematic Construction of the Character in Goal-Driven Narrative Cinema
    Embodying Character: Psychological and Bodily Performance and the Cinematic Construction of the Character in Goal-Driven Narrative Cinema Sebastian Byrne 15974381 February, 2011 University of Western Sydney 'A creative doctorate submitted to the University of Western Sydney as partial fulfilment for the degree of Doctor of Creative Arts (DCA)'. Kung Fu Dunk (2008), Dir. Yen-Ping, C. Shanghai Film Group. Sebastian Byrne15974381 Embodying Character STATEMENT OF ORIGINALITY 'This work has not previously been submitted for a degree or diploma in any university. To the best of my knowledge and belief, the creative doctorate contains no material previously published or written by another person except where due reference is made in the creative research itself.' i Sebastian Byrne15974381 Embodying Character ABSTRACT This exegesis looks at how the character in goal-driven narrative cinema is cinematically constructed through the unfolding of events within the plot. While screenwriting manuals often separate plot from character, by collapsing action into a focus on the character's psychology, I argue that it is the psychology of the character and the bodily performance of the actor that motivate plot development. A closer analysis of how the character operates within the plot could be of particular relevance to film criticism when discussing the spectacle sequences contained in sports and action films, in which the body of the actor is more heavily foregrounded than in conventional narrative scenes. Through an analytical case study of the sports film Wimbledon, the exegesis demonstrates how the film privileges a focus on the psychology of the main protagonist, and the narrative, at the expense of a closer investigation into the ways in which their body operates within the tennis sequences.
