It has been accepted for inclusion in Dissertations - ALL by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract When Netflix launched in April 1998, Internet video was in its infancy. Eighteen years later, Netflix has developed into the first truly global Internet TV network. Many books have been written about the five broadcast networks – NBC, CBS, ABC, Fox, and the CW – and many about the major cable networks – HBO, CNN, MTV, Nickelodeon, just to name a few – and this is the fitting time to undertake a detailed analysis of how Netflix, as the preeminent Internet TV networks, has come to be. This book, then, combines historical, industrial, and textual analysis to investigate, contextualize, and historicize Netflix's development as an Internet TV network. The book is split into four chapters. The first explores the ways in which Netflix's development during its early years a DVD-by-mail company – 1998-2007, a period I am calling "Netflix as Rental Company" – lay the foundations for the company's future iterations and successes. During this period, Netflix adapted DVD distribution to the Internet, revolutionizing the way viewers receive, watch, and choose content, and built a brand reputation on consumer-centric innovation.

STAY SAFE AND OBSERVE SET ETIQUETTE POST-PRODUCTION (2 guides) EXHIBITION AND DISTRIBUTION (2 guides) PRODUCTION MASTER THE CAMERA Master the camera (camera shots, angles and movements) Top Tip Before you begin making your film, have a play with your camera: try to film something! A simple, silent (no dialogue) scene where somebody walks into the shot, does something and then leaves is perfect. Once you’ve shot your first film, watch it. What do you like/dislike about it? Save this first attempt. We’ll be asking you to return to it later. (If you have already done this and saved your films, you don’t need to do this again.) Professional filmmakers divide scenes into shots. They set up their camera and frame the first shot, film the action and then stop recording. This process is repeated for each new shot until the scene is completed. The clips are then put together in the edit to make one continuous scene. Whatever equipment you work with, if you use professional techniques, you can produce quality films that look cinematic. The table below gives a description of the main shots, angles and movements used by professional filmmakers. An explanation of the effects they create and the information they can give the audience is also included.

Instructor: Nils Osmar Email: [email protected] For a full list of classes, visit: www.classesandworkshops.com __________________________________________________________ Movies have two components: video and audio. Movies are primarily a visual medium, but the quality of the audio is extremely important in the perceived quality of the final product. Good audio can save a bad movie. Poor audio can ruin a good one. Sound conveys emotion. Video conveys information. (If you listen to a movie with the sound off, you won’t be emotionally involved in it.) (If you're scared of horror films, try watching them with the sound off; they won't scare you at all.) __________________________________________________________ Key points to remember: • The audio track in a movie is made up of several different components mixed together. The components include: - voices - room tone - sound effects and foley - music • Some audio is recorded in the field (on location) on the day of filming. Some is recorded later on in studio. Then it's treated and mixed in studio. • If your goal is to record high quality audio, all of these components need to be of high quality: - your microphone - your microphone holder - the cable connecting it to the recording device - the camcorder or other recording device the microphone is hooked up to. • The connections between the components have to be secure. Audio is only as strong as its weakest link. (A great microphone won't sound good if its connection to the camera has a problem.) The better your movie's soundtrack, the less your audience will be consciously aware of it.
