Six large motion picture making companies lost $100»000,000 for the fiscal year 1969 and the portion of the film industry's recrea­ tional dollar has dropped twenty-four percent since 1946. Nevertheless, certain motion pictures are making money, many of which are being created on low budgets by generally unknown individuals. Commercial films are made either by a large corporation or a few individuals. Neither system seems compatible with the other! Thus a conflict has arisen between two methods of film making. It is the purpose of this thesis to study the eco­ nomic history and financial structure of these two systems in order to discern the future trend of the motion picture industry. As well, in order to determine the economic, operational, and practical differences between these systems, two motion pictures are examined; Lilies of the Field, the prototype of the independent film, and Hawaii, a representative of the large motion picture. vii CHAPTER I ECONOMIC BACKGROUND OF THE MOTION PICTURE INDUSTRY. Motion Pictures Is a photographic technique whereby a sequence of still pictures In black and white or color is projected In rapid succession onto a screen to give the illusion of motion.^ Through this simple concept has developed a whole society?s subculture. Because of the complexity of the motion picture industry certain terms need definition. 'Nomenclature ef'the Motion Picture Industry Commercial motion pictures, movies, or film as it is commonly called in the United States, can be broken down into three major areas; production, distribution, and exhibition. Production covers all elements of the physical acts of making a movie. Included in production is the research of social feeling to determine audience desire which may be done scientifically through marketing analysis procedures or emotionally through personal intuition, whim, or feeling. Once audience desire Is determined, the writing or buying of an existing script is generally, the next step. ^Arthur Knight, Motion Pictures,11 Funk &. Wagnails Standard Reference Encyclopedia (1959)» XVII, ^3. The script may come, for example, from an idea casually mentioned to its creator, or from a best-selling novel. Whatever its source, the script, will serve as the basic unit from which the film will grow. Production then concerns itself with the acquiring and budgeting of all facilities including equipment, time, and location. While gathering facilities, production also acquires talent that will, work both in a technical capacity behind the camera and in an acting capacity in front of it. Once all these items have been gathered and contracts nego­ tiated, the screen play is recorded on film. After the film has been processed, it is edited to hopefully create a desired story flow. Finally, a negative print is developed which represents the script in its final filmed 2 form. The cost of this film is known as the negative, print cost and it represents the primary investment and total effort of production. Distribution, the second area of the film making . industry, covers all the elements from acquiring the nega­ tive print to selling the use of a positive print copy to an exhibitor for public viewing. Though ownership and physical control of this negative print are generally kept A negative print is used during filming rather than a positive print (one that will transfer a positive image on a screen when projected) because negative prints enable the making o f .many positive.copies which are shown to the public. 3 by production, it is part of the function of distribution to determine how many positive prints will be necessary to be made for release to the public. Several ways of deter­ mining the number of positive prints are in effect today: sneak previews, road shows, and first successive runs. In order to do this, distribution must decide what type of release program or run, the successive.exhibition of a feature for a given area, will have.^ Preview showing or sneak preview releases the film to the public at certain set locations. The picture is shown from one to three.weeks, and then is drawn off the market for six to eight months. The sneak preview, not advertised, but generally shown along with another movie, is used to test audience reaction to a certain idea or type, of film. It is not uncommon for the film to be re-edited after audience reaction is determined. In the road show method, a limited number of prints are made but in this case they are scheduled.into different specially selected, movie houses at premium prices, usually between $3.50 and $4.50 for a reserved seat.

  • Beyond Westworld
    “We Don’t Know Exactly How They Work”: Making Sense of Technophobia in 1973 Westworld, Futureworld, and Beyond Westworld Stefano Bigliardi Al Akhawayn University in Ifrane - Morocco Abstract This article scrutinizes Michael Crichton’s movie Westworld (1973), its sequel Futureworld (1976), and the spin-off series Beyond Westworld (1980), as well as the critical literature that deals with them. I examine whether Crichton’s movie, its sequel, and the 1980s series contain and convey a consistent technophobic message according to the definition of “technophobia” advanced in Daniel Dinello’s 2005 monograph. I advance a proposal to develop further the concept of technophobia in order to offer a more satisfactory and unified interpretation of the narratives at stake. I connect technophobia and what I call de-theologized, epistemic hubris: the conclusion is that fearing technology is philosophically meaningful if one realizes that the limitations of technology are the consequence of its creation and usage on behalf of epistemically limited humanity (or artificial minds). Keywords: Westworld, Futureworld, Beyond Westworld, Michael Crichton, androids, technology, technophobia, Daniel Dinello, hubris. 1. Introduction The 2016 and 2018 HBO series Westworld by Jonathan Nolan and Lisa Joy has spawned renewed interest in the 1973 movie with the same title by Michael Crichton (1942-2008), its 1976 sequel Futureworld by Richard T. Heffron (1930-2007), and the short-lived 1980 MGM TV series Beyond Westworld. The movies and the series deal with androids used for recreational purposes and raise questions about technology and its risks. I aim at an as-yet unattempted comparative analysis taking the narratives at stake as technophobic tales: each one conveys a feeling of threat and fear related to technological beings and environments.

  • ASC Founders
    The 15 Founders of the American Society of Cinematographers Biographies By Robert S. Birchard The American Society of Cinematographers succeeded two earlier organizations — the Cinema Camera Club, started by Edison camerapersons Philip E. Rosen, Frank Kugler and Lewis W. Physioc in New York in 1913; and the Static Club of America, a Los Angeles–based society first headed by Universal cameraperson Harry H. Harris. From the beginning, the two clubs had a loose affiliation, and eventually the West Coast organization changed its name to the Cinema Camera Club of California. But, even as the center of film production shifted from New York to Los Angeles — the western cinematographers’ organization was struggling to stay afloat. Rosen came to Los Angeles in 1918. When he sought affiliation with the Cinema Camera Club of California, president Charles Rosher asked if he would help reorganize the faltering association. Rosen sought to create a national organization, with membership by invitation and with a strong educational component. The reorganization committee met in the home of William C. Foster on Saturday, December 21, 1918 and drew up a new set of bylaws. The 10-member committee and five invited Cinema Camera Club member visitors were designated as the board of governors for the new organization. The next evening, in the home of Fred LeRoy Granville, officers for the American Society of Cinematographers were elected — Philip E. Rosen, president; Charles Rosher, vice president; Homer A. Scott, second vice president; William C. Foster, treasurer; and Victor Milner, secretary. The Society was chartered by the State of California on January 8, 1919.

KONZERTSAAL «The Pink Panther» is a trademark of Metro-Goldwyn-Mayer Studios Inc. All Rights Reserved. CLC_PINKPANTHER_PROGRAMM_AW_F1.indd 1 04.12.18 17:03 Wir freuen uns, Ihnen den Komödien- klassiker «The Pink Panther» von Regisseur Blake Edwards mit der legendären Filmmusik von Henry Mancini als Europapremiere und zugleich als Auftakt unserer Konzertreihe „Silver Screen Classics in Concert“ präsentieren zu dürfen. Im Jahr 1963 jagte Inspektor Jacques Clouseau (Peter Sellers) erstmals über die Kinoleinwände. Die Kombination aus Detektivgeschichte, Slap- stick-Komödie und Romantik zog das Publikum von Beginn an in seinen Bann. Zahlreiche Spielfilme und eine Zeichentrickserie folgten diesem Kinodebüt des „Pink Panthers“. Der elfte und jüngste Film dieses Fran- chise wurde 2009 in den Kinos gezeigt. Ebenso legendär wie der „Pink Panther“-Diamant sind auch die Figur Jacques Clouseau und die ikonische Filmmusik von Komponist Henry Mancini. Es gibt kaum jemanden, der sei- ne Melodie, angeführt vom tapsigen Spiel des Tenorsaxophons, nicht kennt. «The Pink Panther», besetzt mit illustren Namen wie David Niven, Peter Sellers, Robert Wagner, Capucine und Claudia Cardinale, erzählt von Inspector Clouseaus Bemühungen, einen berüchtigten Juwelendieb zu jagen, der schlicht als „Phantom“ bezeichnet wird. Der Dieb soll es auf einen be- sonders seltenen Schatz abgesehen haben: den aussergewöhnlichen «Pink Panther», der sich im Besitz von Prinzessin Dala befindet. Auf den Spuren des „Phantoms“ reist Clouseau von Cortina d‘Ampezzo nach Rom und tritt dabei gekonnt in zahlreiche Fettnäpfchen. Das heutige Konzert, eine Co-Produktion von Schirmer Theatrical und dem Mancini Family Trust, lässt diesen Klassiker der Krimikomödien in einer fein ausgearbeiteten Live-Version der kompletten Filmmusik von Henry Mancini in neuer Pracht erstrahlen.
