  • Role of the Archives in the Future
    … You can fool all the people some of the time, and some of the people all the time, but you cannot fool all the people all the time…” Abraham Lincoln ( 1809 – 1865 ) FACTS AND FICTION- ARCHIVAL FOOTAGE HISTORICAL EVENTS AND TELEVISION AND FILM PRODUCTIONS Media Archeology Movies and television productions are released and transmitted each year dealing with historical events or public personalities like politicians , military leaders, revolutionaries, and people with a record of special achievemments. The aim of my presentation is to make you aware of different possibilities in reusing archival footage in movies. It is my intention to inform you about the importance of the audiovisual archives and how to reuse transmitted programmes or real shots of life in new productions. It is not my intention to evaluate real shots in historical movies and to report about facts and fiction in those films. The subject is dealt with in the book called: PAST IMPERFECT. History According to the Movies. 1995, and my own paper on the same subject: HISTORY AND MOVIES: An evaluation of the information of historical events, of international known personalities and of famous sites and buildings describes in movies. External links: ( Contact: http://www.baacouncil.org/ or [email protected] for copy of the paper) Television companies should be proud of their collections of transmitted programmes. Because I have worked for televison archive for about 29 years I have viewed a lot of television programmes and movies. Some years ago I started to question the reuse of transmitted television programmes and also the active reuse of news in new productions.

  • FILMOGRAFIA (A Cura Di Bear EAF51 – Aggiornamento Luglio 2020)
    FILMOGRAFIA (a cura di Bear_EAF51 – Aggiornamento Luglio 2020) Quello che segue è un puro elenco, per argomento ed in ordine alfabetico, di film di argomento bellico o aeronautico. Non si tratta quindi di vere e proprie recensioni: questa filmografia nasce con l’intento di fornire una sorta di orientamento agli interessati. Molti dei film sono reperibili in rete (streaming o download) o in DVD. Alcuni sono disponibili solo in lingua originale. Altri ancora sono purtroppo introvabili perché esauriti da tempo. Per ogni film ho cercato di indicare il titolo in Italiano, il titolo originale, l’anno di realizzazione, e una breve descrizione del contenuto o della trama. Ho classificato i titoli in ordine alfabetico. Se il titolo inizia con un articolo l’ordine alfabetico non ne tiene conto, e considera la prima parola dopo l’articolo (esempio: “I lunghi giorni delle Aquile” è catalogato come “Lunghi Giorni delle Aquile”. L’articolo è anteposto al titolo, tra parentesi) Per rendere più facile la consultazione per genere, ho diviso i titoli in nove sezioni: 1. Aerei, Prima e Seconda guerra mondiale 2. Aerei, Post WW2 & Jets 3. Aerei o quasi (altri film dove l’aereo in genere è solo di contorno) 4. Techno-Thriller 5. War Movies (Film bellici) 6. Film a sfondo militare 7. Serie TV di guerra o di argomento militare 8. War-Fanta-Horror-Movies (Film horror e fantascientifici a sfondo bellico) 9. Documentari Ho aggiunto anche valutazioni del tutto personali, non per forza condivisibili. Ad ogni film ho attribuito un punteggio, espresso in numero di asterischi con una scala da uno a cinque, che rispecchia esclusivamente quanto il film è piaciuto a me.

    THE BEST OF VISEGRAD CINEMA 22 > 27 March 2011 Cinema Vendôme - Brussels PRESS KIT www.filmcenter.cz/visegrad www.cinema-vendome.be CONTENTS EDITORIAL p. 03 PRESENTATION p. 04 PROGRAMME p. 05 CZECH FILMS p. 06 SLOVAK FILMS p. 10 POLISH FILMS p. 15 HUNGARIAN FILMS p. 20 SCHEDULE p. 25 ORGANISATION p. 26 GUESTS p. 27 PRACTICAL INFO p. 28 - 2 - EDITORIAL In 1991, the royal castle of Visegrád, rising above the Hungarian part of the Danube, hosted the summit of the highest representatives of three Central European countries – Czechoslovakia, Hungary and Poland – coming together in the aim of finding ways of strengthening their newly acquired freedom. The result of this meeting was the formation of the Visegrad Goup, and in the twenty years of its existence it has significantly contributed to making the Central European region a place where the spirit of cooperation and stability prevail. Given the farfrom-simple history of the region, this achievement is certainly not negligible. In 2011, the Visegrad Group celebrates its 20th birthday. It would be no celebration if neither family members nor close friends were invited. This impulse led us to the idea to locate a part of the celebrations in the heart of the European Union. As we reflected on what to offer to our guests on behalf of the International Visegrad Fund, Visegrad film came to mind. No matter what form it takes, the cinematic achievements of these countries always present a wide range of interesting testimonies on both the present and the past. We would like to offer you a representative sample of such testimonies on our times and on current Visegrad film.

  • Welcome from the Rector of Palacký University
    1 WELCOME FROM THE RECTOR OF PALACKÝ UNIVERSITY Since its foundation in 1573, the university in Olomouc has always recruited students and academics from many European countries. Given the large number of foreign students we receive, our university has gradually evolved into a genuinely multilingual academy with Latin, German and Czech being the dominant tongues. Despite the challenges of history and dramatic discontinuities of the past, our university still believes in the twenty-first century that internationalization renders endless potential to enhance scientific excellence as well as the quality of research and academic training. Under my guidance, Palacký University has strong ambition to become the most international academy in Central Europe in terms of cutting-edge research collaboration, joint- and double-degree study programs and in the number of foreign students. However, internationalization does not only involve headhunting and recruiting students across the globe. In doing so, we also receive important side benefits, namely cultural diversity, plurality of judgments and, above all, much needed dialogue and tolerance. I very much hope that in Palacký University you will find a friendly institution, supportive tutors and an intellectually stimulating academic environment. Jaroslav Miller, Rector of Palacký University 2 TABLE OF CONTENTS Welcome from the Rector of Palacký University ................................................................... 2 PART 1: CZECH REPUBLIC, OLOMOUC, PALACKÝ UNIVERSITY ................................................
