  • Steinhart Runaway Hollywood Chapter3
    Chapter 3 Lumière, Camera, Azione! the personnel and practices of hollywood’s mode of international production as hollywood filmmakers gained more experience abroad over the years, they devised various production strategies that could be shared with one another. A case in point: in May 1961, Vincente Minnelli was preparing the production of Two Weeks in Another Town (1962), part of which he planned to shoot in Rome. Hollywood flmmaker Jean Negulesco communicated with Minnelli, ofering some advice on work- ing in Italy, where Negulesco had directed portions of Tree Coins in the Fountain (1954) and Boy on a Dolphin (1957) and at the time was producing his next flm, Jessica (1962): I would say that the most difcult and the most important condition of mak- ing a picture in Italy is to adapt yourself to their spirit, to their way of life, to their way of working. A small example: Tis happened to me on location. As I arrive on the set and everything is ready to be done at 9 o’clock—the people are having cofee. Now, your assistant also is having cofee—and if you are foolish enough to start to shout and saying you want to work, right away you’ll have an unhappy crew and not the cooperation needed for the picture. But if you have cofee with them, they will work for you with no time limit or no extra expense.1 Negulesco’s letter underscores a key lesson that Hollywood moviemakers learned overseas when confronted with diferent working hours, production practices, and cultural customs.

  • An Eye-Tracking Study on How Viewers Make Dubbing Work Pablo Romero-Fresco, University of Vigo and University of Roehampton
    The Journal of Specialised Translation Issue 33 – January 2020 The dubbing effect: an eye-tracking study on how viewers make dubbing work Pablo Romero-Fresco, University of Vigo and University of Roehampton ABSTRACT Although dubbing is regularly criticised for its artifice and its manipulation of film sound, it has proved to be the preferred modality of audiovisual translation for millions of viewers. Research in this area has explored at length the way in which the professionals involved in dubbing make it work. What has been overlooked so far is the cognitive process undergone by the viewers to make it work. In order to explore this issue, this paper starts with a discussion of several aspects that may be relevant to the perception and overall reception of dubbing, including cultural arguments on habituation, psychological and cognitive notions of suspension of disbelief and perceptual phenomena such as the McGurk effect. It then goes on to compare, with the help of eye-tracking technology, the eye movements of a group of native Spanish participants watching a clip dubbed into Spanish featuring close- ups with (a) the eye movements of a group of native English participants watching the same clip in English and (b) the eye movements of the Spanish participants watching an original (and comparable) clip in Spanish. This analysis is complemented by data on the participants’ comprehension, sense of presence and self-perception of their eye movements when watching these clips. The findings obtained point to the potential existence of a dubbing effect, an unconscious eye movement strategy performed by dubbing viewers to avoid looking at mouths in dubbing, which prevails over the natural way in which they watch original films and real-life scenes, and which allows them to suspend disbelief and be transported into the fictional world.

  • The Life and Death of 9413: a Hollywood Extra
    The Life and Death of 9413: A Hollywood Extra By Brian Taves Robert Florey, who came to the United States in 1921 as a reporter for French film journals, quickly had the idea for a short picture based on the impressions of an "everyman" actor with futile dreams of becoming a star. A few years later, attending a performance of George Gershwin's "Rhapsody in Blue," Florey was inspired, as he recalled, to write a "continuity in musical rhythm of the adventures of my extra in Hollywood, the movements and attitudes of which appeared to synchronize themselves with Gershwin's notes." The script was worked out in precise detail, shot by shot, determining the precise footage needed, a necessity be- A frame enlargement from the film depicts an auditioning actor cause the $97 budget was coming entirely out of who has donned a sinister mask.
