  • WTC SUMMER HOMEWORK Read Charting the History of British Music Video (MM66), by Emily Caston. (BELOW) Answer the Following Quest
    WTC SUMMER HOMEWORK Read Charting the History of British Music Video (MM66), by Emily Caston. (BELOW) Answer the following questions, drawing on the article for information and ideas. 1. According to the article’s writer, Emily Caston, how significant was MTV in the development of British music video production? 2. What criteria did Emily Caston and her team use for selecting music videos for their 6-DVD box set? What are your thoughts about the criteria? What music videos do you know that you would include in such a selection? 3. Bohemian Rhapsody is often quoted as being the first British music video. The article argues otherwise. Why is that? Why was ‘Bo-Rhap’ not included in the box set? 4. The box set is made up of six different categories: performance; concept; dance; stories; wit; portraits. If you were putting together a selection of videos, what categories would you choose to use? 5. The article ends by noting that videos are now consumed by millions globally, ‘uncurated on mobile platforms’. What might be the significance of a curated collection in light of these consumption patterns? Curating your own collection Imagine that you have been given the chance to curate a selection of music videos to represent your experience of secondary school, from the moment you joined until the end of Year 11. Select five videos that you want to include in your selection. Outline in writing what is significant about each video, both as an art form in its own right, and in relation to your time at secondary school.

Simon Anten- Head of Media - [email protected] Catherine Strong- Media Teacher - [email protected] Music Video From its beginnings, music video has been an innovative and experimental form. Many a successful film director has either made their name as a music video director or still uses the form to experiment with editing, photography and post production effects. Watch the following two videos by British film directors: Radiohead’s “Street Spirit” (Jonathan Glazer 1995) and FKA Twigs’ “tw-ache” (Tom Beard 2014). What are your thoughts about both videos? In what ways might they be seen as experimental (as well as weird, intriguing and exciting)? How do they create an impact? How do they complement or challenge the music? Who is the target audience for each video? (It can be useful to read the comments on YouTube to get a sense of people’s reactions to them, but don’t do this if you’re sensitive to bad language!) Is there anything distinctly British about either or both of them? Comparing a director’s video and film output Jonathan Glazer directed Radiohead’s “Street Spirit” just a few years before directing his first feature, the brilliant Sexy Beast (2000), starring Ben Kingsley and Ray Winstone.

  • Empathy and Becoming Human in Jonathan Glazer's Under the Skin
    Special Issue – Philosophy of Film Without Theory ‘The flesh is weak.’ Empathy and becoming human in Jonathan Glazer’s Under the Skin Author Affiliation Colin Heber-Percy United Kingdom Abstract: Jonathan Glazer’s 2013 film Under the Skin offers an unsettling med- itation on humanness through the eyes of an alien predator. This essay reflects on Glazer’s film by drawing it into conversation with the later phenomenology of Maurice Merleau-Ponty, with Heidegger, Martin Buber, and with a number of earlier Greek thinkers who together point us towards a more complex and shared definition of ‘contemplation’ or theory. The paper asks: do films watch us as much as we watch films? Through an ex- ploration of the notion of the mask as a means both of disguise and of disclosure, the paper questions to what extent all human relations are masked, screened. So, Glazer’s film can be viewed as an exercise in re-imagining the role of the screen, © Aesthetic Investigations Vol 3, No 2 (2021), 347-364 ‘The flesh is weak.’ turning us from viewers to viewed. This implication of the audience in the film’s scope leads to a concluding focus on empathy as the essential sharedness of human (and therefore of cinematic) experience. In 1909 in Paris, a poet and artist by the name of Max Jacob struggles to make ends meet by giving piano lessons, earning just enough to make the rent and buy bread. Max attends classes at the École Coloniale where the other students mistake him for someone who comes there to sell pencils.

  • A Blend of Sound and Image-The Music Video
    DOI: 10.2478/v10319-012-0002-2 A BLEND OF SOUND AND IMAGE- THE MUSIC VIDEO ELIZA CLAUDIA FILIMON University of Timişoara Email: [email protected] Abstract: The focus of this paper is first of all the issue of authorship in music videos, with reference to the division of tasks between the musician and the director. Secondly, a non-narrative musical piece in analysed - The Chemical Brothers’ Star Guitar - in relation to the narrative video created by Michel Gondry to enrich its meanings and better convey the intended message of the musicians. Keywords: authorship, musical message, video message 1. Introduction Literary critical studies have constantly been holding authorship theories under scrutiny, from voices hailing the paramount role an author has to theoretical studies committing the author to invisibility. Roland Barthes boldly denounced the limiting status of the author in the interpretation of a text, stating the necessity of abandoning the creative voice entirely: “The birth of the reader must be at the cost of the death of the Author” (qtd. in Caughie 1981:213). Michael Foucault distinguished himself from Barthes by tackling the problem from another angle. By separating the indicative and designative functions of the author’s name, he investigated the discourses surrounding and attached to the author’s name. Extending his theories of discourses from The Order of Things and The Archaeology of Knowledge, Foucault considered author as a product of discursive practices, instead of a creative subject. “In undertaking an internal and architectonic analysis of a work and in delimiting psychological and biographical references, suspicions arise concerning the absolute nature and creative role of the subject.” (qtd.

Just search for ‘The Fall Jonathan Glazer’. Before you watch the film, please read this extract from a newspaper article about its unusual release. The Americas with Simon Reeve is an amiable travelogue in which a dishy documentarian gads about the US. This Sunday night he was in California, examining giant redwoods and Beyoncé’s mansion. At 10pm, the credits rolled and, abruptly, BBC Two plunged us into hell. For five minutes before the start of Live at the Apollo, the channel screened a new short film in which a masked mob hang a man in a forest.

  • Bamcinématek Presents a Three-Film Retrospective of Jonathan Glazer, Apr 1—3
    MEDIA ALERT BAMcinématek presents a three-film retrospective of Jonathan Glazer, Apr 1—3 Glazer in person for a sneak preview of his newest film, Under the Skin The Wall Street Journal is the title sponsor for BAMcinématek and BAM Rose Cinemas. Brooklyn, NY/Mar XX, 2014—From Tuesday, April 1 through Thursday, April 3, BAMcinématek presents a three-film retrospective of Jonathan Glazer. After a nine-year break from the big screen, the British director—who went from commercial and music video visionary (Massive Attack, Blur, Radiohead, and Jamiroquai, to name a few) to gutsy iconoclast—returns this spring with his most audacious movie yet. His films reveal a master of style and mood who is unafraid to go bold. Opening the series on Tuesday, April 1 at 7:30pm is a sneak preview of Glazer’s anticipated new film Under the Skin (2014) based on the acclaimed science fiction novel by Michel Faber (The Crimson Petal and the White). Starring Scarlett Johansson as an alien seductress on a corporate- led mission to eliminate hitchhikers, this “hypnotically beautiful” (Jon Frosch, The Atlantic), moody thriller will be followed by a Q&A with Jonathan Glazer. Also screening as part of the program is Glazer’s stylish take on the gangster crime drama, Sexy Beast (2001—Apr 2 at 4:30, 7, 9:30pm), an “immensely pleasurable, genre-defying first feature” (Amy Taubin, The Village Voice) that garnered Ben Kingsley an Oscar nomination for Best Supporting Actor. Closing the series is the controversial Birth (2004—Apr 3 at 4:30, 7, 9:30pm), about a woman (Nicole Kidman) who is convinced that her deceased husband has returned as a 10-year-old boy.

  • Spike Jonze Cast: Joaquin Phoenix
    1Her (2013) “Anybody who falls in love is a freak.” Major Credits: Writer and Director: Spike Jonze Cast: Joaquin Phoenix (Theodore Twombly), Scarlett Johansson (Samantha), Amy Adams (Amy), Rooney Mara (Catherine),Olivia Wilde (Blind Date), Portia Doubleday (Isabella) Cinematography: Hoyte Van Hoytema Production Design: K.K. Barrett Music: Arcade Fire, Karen O, The Breeders Production Background: Following the themes of his first two movies—the nature of human consciousness and the necessity of change—Her is the first film Jonze wrote on his own. (His third feature, Where the Wild Things Are, was co-written with Dave Eggers). It is an excellent example of global cinema, having been shot in Los Angeles and Shanghai and employing a digitally constructed environment that is a mélange of the two cities. Her belongs to the tradition of science fiction but is set in the near future and is relatively unique in being neither utopian nor dystopian in its representation of life perhaps twenty years from now. In fact, much of its success can be attributed to how familiar this future world seems. Her owes as much to the genre of romantic comedy as it does to science fiction. Samantha is a “rebound” girlfriend, a fill-in for Theo’s true love Catherine, and perhaps a transition to his “gal pal” Amy. Reviewers have yet to notice how much the film is indebted to Woody Allen’s Annie Hall (1977): the opening close-up of Phoenix directly addressing the camera; his occupation as a writer, his people-watching observations to Samantha in the mall; her eagerness for new experiences that provoke his jealousy; the theme that “love fades.” Jonze shot the entire film with Samantha Morton as the voice of OS1.
