All, Our Principal Source of Revenue and Our Most Effective Way of Telling the World What We're About FRO M THE PRESIDENT The Academy Awards telecast is probably the most-watched annual program in the world. That fact notwithstanding, the Board of Governors spent a lot of time during the second quarter of this year, trying to set policies that will help the downward-ticking ratings of our broadcast. It is, after all, our principal source of revenue and our most effective way of telling the world what we're about. The Awards Review Committee, chaired by Public Relations Branch Governor Marvin Levy, spent three long meetings discussing the show and how to shorten it; the Awards Rules Committee, chaired by Music Branch NARRATIVE GOLD MEDAL WINNER JESSICA SHARZER Governor Charles Bernstein, spent equally MAKES HER WAY TO HER SEAT IN THE GOLDWYN THEATER long hours pursuing the same goal, particu­ larly by reducing the number of special awards such as the Thalberg and Hersholt E leven film students from eight U.S. universities presented on recent shows. took home Saul Bass-designed Student Academy At the June meeting the Board accepted Awards at the 29th annual competition in June. three major changes that will, we hope, have Arriving in Los Angeles on a Wednesday, the win­ a salutary effect. ners spent the rest of the week meeting each other and First, the Board voted to require the pro­ Academy staff, chatting with cinematographers at the ducer of the show to bring it to a close ASC and directors at the DGA, and meeting Academy before midnight on the East Coast.

One organization that might not have so been happy was the Screen Actors Guild. After all, it's not easy to get digital actors to pay their yearly dues. And make no mistake about it, The Phantom Menace is chock full of non-union thespians. The movie swarms with them—from humanoids to droids to alien swamp creatures. Notwithstanding prominent CG life forms such as Jar Jar Binks and Boss Nass (the subject of last month's in-depth character study), most of the film's artificial actors appear in crowd scenes. Concocted by the ingenious team at Industrial Light & Magic (ILM), these sequences present an utterly convincing cast of thousands, even when the actual number of flesh-and-blood actors onscreen is no more than a dozen, and sometimes none at all. How did they pull it off? In more ways than you can shake a light saber at. Some didn't even involve computers, such as the attentive audience of painted Q-Tips that fill the stadium bleachers during the pod race on the planet Tattooine. Digital technology did fill the stadium grounds and aisles, however, where a throng of animated human and alien figures was emitted by a Maya-based particle system that calculated their paths on the fly using artificial intelligence.

  • Transcript (Reprinted with Permission PBS.Com) Narrator: It Was The
    Transcript (reprinted with permission PBS.com) Narrator: It was the golden age of silent film and the most famous actress, the most adored woman in the world was America's Sweetheart, Mary Pickford. Eileen Whitfield, Biographer: Mary Pickford was the first modern celebrity, the first celebrity to be created through moving images. Tino Balio, Film Historian: She invented acting for film. Eileen Whitfield: She was the first person to get out there and show everyone how to do it. Narrator: In a fairytale romance, she married Hollywood's leading man Douglas Fairbanks. Together they invented the myth of Hollywood come true. With Charlie Chaplin, she and Fairbanks began United Artists and changed movie history. Tino Balio: She was a woman in a man's world and she played the game of business and beat the moguls at their own game. Scott Eyman, Biographer: She set the parameters for movie stardom. And she also was the first to pay the price for movie stardom. And it's a terrible price. Narrator: In a handful of years she lost it all. The fans forgot her, forgot the glow of her image, and the magical presence of the world's first superstar. She began as plain Gladys Smith. At fifteen she dreamed of stardom, of glamour, of a career on the Broadway stage. Jeanine Basinger, Film Historian: She wanted to better herself. So her sights were set on working for the great and famous impresario, David Belasco. Robert Cushman, Film Historian: She began to haunt David Belasco's office. She would go everyday, wait all day, only to be told to come back tomorrow.

  • Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Mary Pickford Rediscovered by Kevin Brownlow Mary Pickford Rediscovered by Kevin Brownlow
    Read Ebook {PDF EPUB} Mary Pickford Rediscovered by Kevin Brownlow Mary Pickford Rediscovered by Kevin Brownlow. "Mary Pickford Rediscovered: Rare Pictures of a Hollywood Legend" by Kevin Brownlow (Henry N. Abrams, Inc., 1999, 256 pages.) Anytime a Kevin Brownlow book is published, there's a "buzz" among silent film enthusiasts, and there's plenty of reason for it with this new book. First of all, it's a beautiful book - 9 1/4" x 12", slick, glossy, high quality paper, and photographs reproduced in the same high quality manner as they were in Hollywood, The Pioneers . The contents - a brief forward by the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences - a lengthy introduction (about 16 pages) by Robert Cushman who is curator of the Academy's photographic stills archive - How the Mary Pickford Collection Came to the Academy Library by Cushman - The Search for Mary Pickford by Brownlow which is an absorbing personal account of his early experiences in "finding" Mary Pickford - and finally something silent film collectors have needed for a long time. a film by film rundown with commentaries, and who better to do those commentaries than Brownlow. Don't be mislead by the title - this is NOT just a picture book. Yes, it has 232 pictures, but it also has plenty of great text, too. This book is everything a Mary Pickford fan could want and certainly won't disappoint. Rediscovered Lost Girl of the Week: Presenting Mary Pickford. Kevin Brownlow was a guest at the University of Antwerp last week. He gave a charming and inspiring talk about his career in silent film at Cinema Zuid.
