    JMAD Media Ownership Report

    JMAD New Zealand Media Ownership Report 2014 Published: 2014 December 5 Author: Merja Myllylahti This New Zealand Ownership Report 2014 is the fourth published by AUT’s Centre for Journalism, Media and Democracy (JMAD). The report finds that the New Zealand media market has failed to produce new, innovative media outlets, and that all the efforts to establish non-profit outlets have proved unsustainable. The report confirms the general findings of previous reports that New Zealand media space has remained highly commercial. It also confirms the financialisation of media ownership in the form of banks and fund managers. The report also observes that in 2014 convergence between New Zealand mass media and the communications sector generally was in full swing. Companies, such as Spark (former Telecom NZ), started to compete head-to-head with the traditional broadcasters on the online on-demand video and television markets. The American online video subscription service Netflix is entering the NZ market in March 2015. Additionally, the report notes evidence of uncomfortable alliances between citizen media, politicians, PR companies and legacy media. As Nicky Hager’s Dirty Politics book revealed, the National Party and PR practitioners used the Whale Oil blog to drive their own agendas. Also, events related to Maori TV, TVNZ and Scoop raise questions about political interference in media affairs. It is now evident that the boundaries between mainstream media, bloggers, public relations practitioners and politicians are blurring. Key events and trends concerning New Zealand media Financialisation of mass media ownership confirmed Substantial changes in Fairfax, APN and MediaWorks ownership Competition heats up in online television and video markets Turbulence at Maori TV Blurred lines among politicians, bloggers, journalists and PR practitioners The JMAD New Zealand media ownership reports are available here: http://www.aut.ac.nz/study- at-aut/study-areas/communications/media-networks/journalism,-media-and-democracy-research- centre/journalists-and-projects 1 1.

A THESIS SUBMITTED IN PARTIAL FULFILLMENT OF THE REQUIREMENTS FOR THE DEGREE OF DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY IN MEDIA AND COMMUNICATION. UNIVERSITY OF CANTERBURY 2018 DEDICATION I dedicate this thesis to the God that makes all things possible. Also, to my awesome and loving Wife and Daughter, Marissa and Enïola. i | P a g e ACKNOWLEDGEMENT I heartily acknowledge the support, unrelentless commitment and dedication of my supervisors, Dr. Zita Joyce and Dr. Babak Bahador who both ensured that these thesis meets an international level of academic research. I value their advice and contributions to the thesis and without their highly critical reviews and feedback, the thesis will be nothing than a complete recycle of existing knowledge. I also appreciate the valuable contributions of my Examiners, Professor Jock Given of the Swinburne University of Technology, Australia and Assistant Professor Gregory Taylor of the University of Calgary, Canada. The feedback and report of the Examination provided the much needed critical evaluation of my research to improve my research findings. I also appreciate Associate Professor Donald Matheson for chairing my oral examination. I also appreciate the University of Canterbury for providing me with various opportunities to acquire valuable skills in my course of research, academic learning support, teaching and administrative works. Particularly, I appreciate Professor Linda Jean Kenix, who gave me an opportunity as a research assistant during the course of my research. I value this rare opportunity as it was my first major exposure to academic research and an opportunity to understand the academia beyond my research topic.
  • Can Web Series Destabilise Traditional Notions of Script Development?

    Can Web Series Destabilise Traditional Notions of Script Development?

    Australian Screen Production Education & Research Association “It’s the Wild West out there”: Can web series destabilise traditional notions of script development? Annual Conference Refereed Paper ASPERA Annual Conference 2015: “What’s This Space? Screen Practice, Audiences and Education for the Future Decade” Stayci Taylor RMIT University [email protected] Abstract This paper proposes that the concept of ‘script development’—already an ambiguous and arguably unexamined term—is further complicated by the rise of the ‘webisode’, drawing from existing discourse and scholarship on web series, much of which focuses upon (and/or problematises) an assumed amateur/professional binary that would cast online media as ‘other’. But, as this paper argues, while this distinction is being debated, a space opens up within which web series creators are making their own rules. In other words, ‘the Wild West’ landscape of web series, where ‘both the newbie and the veteran can create their own shows without permission from, or the approval of, traditional electronic media networks and studios which historically served as gatekeepers’ (LA Web Fest Founder Michael Ajakwe, quoted in Liang 2013), might be facilitating new practices of script development which, given the crossover success of many web series creatives, might be infiltrating those of the mainstream. Acknowledging the multiple meanings attached to the notion of ‘web series’, this paper wonders how previous ideas of script development are challenged when ‘Audiences can now watch what they want, when they want, which, in turn, means that [television] shows no longer have to be packaged in 30- or 60-minute instalments’ (Brown 2011).
