  • The Making of Hollywood Production: Televising and Visualizing Global Filmmaking in 1960S Promotional Featurettes
    The Making of Hollywood Production: Televising and Visualizing Global Filmmaking in 1960s Promotional Featurettes by DANIEL STEINHART Abstract: Before making-of documentaries became a regular part of home-video special features, 1960s promotional featurettes brought the public a behind-the-scenes look at Hollywood’s production process. Based on historical evidence, this article explores the changes in Hollywood promotions when studios broadcasted these featurettes on television to market theatrical films and contracted out promotional campaigns to boutique advertising agencies. The making-of form matured in the 1960s as featurettes helped solidify some enduring conventions about the portrayal of filmmaking. Ultimately, featurettes serve as important paratexts for understanding how Hollywood’s global production work was promoted during a time of industry transition. aking-of documentaries have long made Hollywood’s flm production pro- cess visible to the public. Before becoming a staple of DVD and Blu-ray spe- M cial features, early forms of making-ofs gave audiences a view of the inner workings of Hollywood flmmaking and movie companies. Shortly after its formation, 20th Century-Fox produced in 1936 a flmed studio tour that exhibited the company’s diferent departments on the studio lot, a key feature of Hollywood’s detailed division of labor. Even as studio-tour short subjects became less common because of the restructuring of studio operations after the 1948 antitrust Paramount Case, long-form trailers still conveyed behind-the-scenes information. In a trailer for The Ten Commandments (1956), director Cecil B. DeMille speaks from a library set and discusses the importance of foreign location shooting, recounting how he shot the flm in the actual Egyptian locales where Moses once walked (see Figure 1).

  • HBO: Brand Management and Subscriber Aggregation: 1972-2007
    1 HBO: Brand Management and Subscriber Aggregation: 1972-2007 Submitted by Gareth Andrew James to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English, January 2011. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. ........................................ 2 Abstract The thesis offers a revised institutional history of US cable network Home Box Office that expands on its under-examined identity as a monthly subscriber service from 1972 to 1994. This is used to better explain extensive discussions of HBO‟s rebranding from 1995 to 2007 around high-quality original content and experimentation with new media platforms. The first half of the thesis particularly expands on HBO‟s origins and early identity as part of publisher Time Inc. from 1972 to 1988, before examining how this affected the network‟s programming strategies as part of global conglomerate Time Warner from 1989 to 1994. Within this, evidence of ongoing processes for aggregating subscribers, or packaging multiple entertainment attractions around stable production cycles, are identified as defining HBO‟s promotion of general monthly value over rivals. Arguing that these specific exhibition and production strategies are glossed over in existing HBO scholarship as a result of an over-valuing of post-1995 examples of „quality‟ television, their ongoing importance to the network‟s contemporary management of its brand across media platforms is mapped over distinctions from rivals to 2007.

  • In It to Win: Jack & Overconfidence Bias
    In It To Win: Jack & Overconfidence Bias In It To Win: Jack & Overconfidence Bias introduces the concept of the overconfidence bias, which refers to the tendency of people to be more confident than is objectively justified in their abilities and characteristics, including in their moral character and their ability to act ethically. If people are overconfident in their own ethicality, they may make decisions that indicate very little moral insight. Questions for classroom discussions: In It to Win: Jack & Overconfidence Bias 1) Can you explain overconfidence bias in your own words? How does it affect moral decision-making? 2) How does overconfidence bias apply to Jack Abramoff? What examples from his story can you cite to support your argument? 3) Can you think of an example from your own life where you or someone else fell victim to overconfidence bias? 4) How might you anticipate and/or mitigate the effects of overconfidence bias in your own life or decision-making? 1 Additional Teaching Note The instructional resources in this series include a feature documentary, In It To Win: The Jack Abramoff Story (25 minutes), and six short videos (approx. 5 minutes each) that concentrate on specific decision-making errors people tend to make, as illustrated by Jack Abramoff’s story. These decision-making errors are part of a new field of study known as behavioral ethics, which draws on behavioral psychology, cognitive science, and related fields to determine why people make the ethical decisions, both good and bad, that they do. A detailed article with extensive resources for teaching behavioral ethics is Prentice, Robert.

  • Alexander Mackendrick: Filmmaker, Teacher & Theorist a Centennial Celebration
    FILM AT REDCAT PRESENTS Wed Feb 6 | 8:30 pm | Jack H. Skirball Series $10 [students $8, CalArts $5] Alexander Mackendrick: Filmmaker, Teacher & Theorist A Centennial Celebration The esteemed director of Sweet Smell of Success (1957) and The Ladykillers (1955), Alexander Mackendrick (1912–1993) was a pivotal figure in the history of CalArts, and his work and writings remain a major influence on contemporary narrative directors and screenwriters. For this celebration of the artist’s multifaceted contributions, Paul Cronin (editor of Mackendrick’s seminal book On Film-Making) is joined by two CalArts alums, director James Mangold and author and filmmaker F.X. Feeney. Together they honor the man who, as Dean of the School of Film/Video at CalArts and throughout his nearly 25 years of teaching, shaped an institution and inspired generations of filmmakers. This lively discussion reveals Mackendrick through personal reminiscences, film clips and critical observations on his work as a filmmaker, teacher and theorist. In person: Paul Cronin, F.X. Feeney and James Mangold “ ‘Process, not product’ was [Mackendrick’s] mantra to his students. The creative process—not the creative method, or the creative system. The process. Which never stops.” —Martin Scorsese One of the most distinguished directors ever to emerge from the British film industry, Alexander “Sandy” Mackendrick was born in the US to Scottish parents. Raised in Scotland, Mackendrick studied at the Glasgow School of Art. Afterward, he worked as a commercial illustrator, soon gravitating to making films, the first being animated advertisements followed by numerous live action short documentaries. Mackendrick’s feature debut was the Ealing Studios comedy classic Whisky Galore (1949).
