  • 'The Enduring Relevance of Newspapers Speech to the Society of Editors
    ‘The Enduring Relevance of Newspapers Speech to the Society of Editors - Tuesday 20 October 10am. David Dinsmore, Chief Operating Officer, News UK CHECK AGAINST DELIVERY Good morning. I have a confession to make. I’m in therapy. It has been about 40 hours now since I witnessed Scotland lose to Australia in the dying moments on Sunday. I’ve no idea what it was like to be a neutral, but it is many years since I have heard the whole of Murrayfield chanting Scotland Scotland as one – and I don’t think we’ve ever heard that particular roar at Twickenham. For 80 glorious minutes, those bloody chariots were impounded in a secure facility somewhere off the M4. It was a magnificent day. It was an incredible story. For a moment we dreamed: were off to face Argentina in the semis…we could have them…and then you’re just a noravirus outbreak in the All Black dressing room from winning the World Cup. It was not to be. But what a day. What a story. And after tuning into non-stop abuse on social media, I quickly graduated to newspapers and their websites. What were the pundits saying? Why had the South African referee Craig Joubert got it so wrong? Why hadn’t he used the TMO (turns out he was right not to, but I needed a newspaper to clear it up for me), why had he run off the pitch like a scalded cat, not shaking a single player’s hand in the process? Why is it so hard being Scottish? Then I came across this snippet of brilliance from my colleagues on The Daily Telegraph in Sydney – the cheeky bastards had made Joubert man of the match.

Credit: BFI National Archive Friday 24th July 2015, London. Sir Alan Parker, one of Britain’s most distinguished filmmakers has donated his entire working archive to the BFI National Archive. The collection covers over 45 years of filmmaking, from his early work as a commercials director for television, through to his career as an internationally renowned, award-winning director of some of the finest films of the period, from Bugsy Malone (1976) and Midnight Express (1978) to Mississippi Burning (1988) and Angela’s Ashes (1999) interspersed with a string of hugely popular musicals including Fame (1980), Pink Floyd - The Wall (1982), The Commitments (1991) and Evita (1996). To celebrate the donation, BFI Southbank will host a Focus On Sir Alan Parker from 24 September to 4 October, including a special on stage event, Sir Alan Parker and Lord Puttnam Unplugged, on 24 September, and an exhibition of his work. The Sir Alan Parker archive covers every period of his career, starting with his work as an advertising copywriter. All of his features are represented, with a wealth of scripts, production papers, promotional materials, posters and Parker’s own filmmaking diaries, offering a hugely important resource for students of film and television. The archive also includes a particularly rich collection of photographs and production stills, by photographers including Greg Williams, Mary Ellen Mark, Terry O'Neill and David Appleby, documenting his films to an exceptional degree.

  • Culture Wars in the Media
    Culture Wars in the Media Mr Dean, ladies and gentlemen. Thank you for your kind introduction and your invitation to join such an august line of guest speakers. What a pleasure it is to be here this evening, though it is a pleasure tinged with trepidation. I worry that those who work in the media have quite enough opportunity to be heard without being granted this storied platform further to inflict their views on others. I’m conscious – as we meet here this evening in a forum of ethical discussion - that journalists tend to rush for the story rather than pause too long to consider its ramifications. And, amid this accelerated news cycle, I am slightly worried that we may be losing another prime minister as we sit here. But as I stared at the big quote in a Guardian article, I was reminded that there is a conversation that needs to be addressed. “I’ve given up watching the news,” said a 60-something man in the Guardian piece. “It’s all lies.” Oh, come on. Given up? Really? Stopped when we have moved from all that theoretical stuff to pure theatrical drama? Stopped in the middle of the fallout from the Supreme Court decision. Stopped with a beleaguered prime minister on both the wrong side of the Atlantic and the wrong side of the law? We’ve always had room for different interpretations of the news. A divergence of political view is manifest in the reaction to almost every news story. Observers have always interpreted things in accordance with their underlying philosophy.

  • Media Education Journal – Autumn/Winter 2004/5 ‘Invisible Journalists’ by Jenny Mckay, University of Stirling [email protected]
    Media Education Journal – Autumn/Winter 2004/5 ‘Invisible Journalists’ by Jenny McKay, University of Stirling [email protected] If you go into a newsagent to buy a magazine you’re likely to find around 450 titles to choose from. If you shop at one of the bigger supermarkets there might even be as many as 800. Yet this still represents only a small selection of the total number of magazines published in the UK. That figure is about 8,500 and can’t be precise because every year another 500 or so titles are launched. Some disappear too but the fact is that the UK has a large and lively periodicals industry publishing a huge range of titles to expanding audiences at home and abroad. These audiences tend to trust what they read in their magazines more than they trust their newspapers. Millions of magazines are sold weekly and almost everyone reads or buys one, or more likely several, at least on an occasional basis. This year saw the birth of two magazines which additionally represent the birth of a sector. Zoo and Nuts have found their young male readers and look set to thrive thanks, partly, to their multi-million pound launch budgets (£8.5m and £8m respectively) but also to the skill of their publishers in manipulating consumers into changing their behaviour. So now the UK has a men’s weekly magazine market that didn’t exist before, and that is ‘bursting with potential’ according to Sylvia Auton, chief executive of IPC Media which publishes Nuts.

    Written evidence submitted by Professor Robert Beveridge FRSA The Digital Culture, Media and Sport Select Committee Inquiry into the Impact of Covid-19 on the DCMS Sector 1 What has been the immediate impact of Covid-19 on the sector? Devastating: especially in relation to the live creative arts, festivals, theatres, classical music etc. To quote the motto of the English monarch Edward III, ‘it is as it is’ but the sight of theatres going into administration eg the Leicester Haymarket and the Southampton Nuffield is a harbinger of worse to come. Who knows what will happen to venues and concert halls such as the Usher Hall in Edinburgh? If there is one area in which the UK can truly be said to have punched above it’s weight and established and maintained world class excellence, both critically and commercially, it is in the creative industries. This internationally recognised success –economic, cultural and artistic is now at severe risk. HMG has invested, (who knows how much?) in maintaining employment in the car industry in the North East of England so that Nissan can stay there. The creative industries deserve no less, indeed much more and investment now will secure many more jobs across the UK with wider benefits well beyond the economic. Taking the long view will produce future income in taxation from the many other businesses which benefit from having such a vibrant sector: hotels, restaurants, transport etc. Edinburgh hosts the largest are festival in the world, by some margin and it will not take place in 2020. The analysis provided by the Creative Industries Federation indicates the scale of current crisis.

    Alison Phillips Editor, Daily Mirror Media Masters – September 26, 2018 Listen to the podcast online, visit www.mediamasters.fm Welcome to Media Masters, a series of one to one interviews with people at the top of the media game. Today, I’m here in Canary Wharf, London, and at the offices of the Daily Mirror, joined by their editor in chief, Alison Phillips. Previously in charge of the Sunday Mirror and Sunday People, she was also launch editor of New Day, the short-lived newspaper, in 2016. She also leads on addressing gender imbalance at Mirror publisher Reach, heading up their Women Together network, and is this year’s Society of Editor’s popular columnist of the year. Alison, thank you for joining me. Hi. Alison, you were appointed in March. It must have been an incredibly proud moment for you, how is it going? It’s going really well, I think. I hope. It’s been a busy few months, because obviously Reach has bought the Express as well, so there have been a lot of issues going on. But in terms of the actual paper at the Mirror, I hope, I feel, that we’re reaching a point of sustained confidence, which is so important for a paper. We’ve had some real success on campaigns, which I think is really our lifeblood. And I think we’re managing to energise the staff, which is absolutely essential for a well-functioning newspaper. Is it more managerial at the moment with the organisational challenges that you’ve been dealing with? Because you must, as the leader of the business, as the editor, you’ve got so many things you could be doing, you’ve got to choose, having to prioritise.

  • Introduction
    INTRODUCTION This study guide attempts to trace the production process o1 the forthcoming film War of the Buttons' from its Conception to its release in the cinema. In tracing this route students are asked to carry out a number of tasks, many of which relate directly to decisions which have to be made during film production. Following the development of this one film we have tried to draw conclusions about the mainstream film making process. However, it is important to bear one thing in mind. As the production accountant for 'War of the Buttons', John Trehy points out: "Each and every feature film I've worked on is completely different from every other, and can only be looked on a as prototype. The production process is always difficult when you're dealing with prototypes and this often explains why so many films exceed their original budgets. 'How can you be a million or two dollars over?' - is a question that is often asked. The reason is that certain kinds of films are unique and the production team must do things that have never been done before." Thus, whilst many of the processes which are dealt with in this guide could well hold good for other films, there are certain aspects which are unique. The guide examines both areas and encourages students to use their own experience of film viewing and cinema-going to explore both the generalities and the uniqueness. There is no attempt to show 'the wonderful world of filmmaking'; rather the guide reveals an industrial process, one in which the time spent on preparing for the film to be shot far outweighs the amount of time actually spent shooting.
