Box 1562 Houston, Texas 77251-1562 Telephone – Dial 311 www.houstontx.gov April 8, 2016 Greetings! As Mayor of Houston, I extend a special welcome to all attending the 49th Annual WorldFest- Houston International Film Festival. Houston is proud to host this exciting celebration of the art of making independent films and to welcome international filmmakers from all over the world to our great city. Houston has emerged as one of the most dynamic film and video production centers in North America. Our remarkably unique locations, from city towers to sleepy bayous, attract hundreds of productions including feature films, music videos, corporate films as well as international television commercials. Houston offers an array of location settings, highly trained production crews, a wealth of multi-talented performing artists and helpful Houston Film Commission staff. This year, WorldFest is presenting Panorama China, a major premier presentation of new films and directors from China. WorldFest-Houston, founded in 1961, is the longest running film festival in the world and the third oldest international film festival in North America. This year, WorldFest-Houston continues to honor the independent filmmaker with 150 new indie films and introduce students to the world of film and television with WorldFest Master Classes, workshops and seminars. I am confident that this momentous occasion will enrich our city culturally and continue to be a remarkable showcase of talent and dedication. Thank you for being a part of WorldFest-Houston, the International Film Festival in an international city. We hope your stay is memorable and rewarding and we look forward to seeing you again soon.

  • Television in Singapore: a Brief Introduction to Its Television Industry
    -Journal of Arts, Science & Commerce ■E-ISSN2229-4686■ISSN2231-4172 TELEVISION IN SINGAPORE: A BRIEF INTRODUCTION TO ITS TELEVISION INDUSTRY Aaron Rao, Lecturer, School of IT, Digital Media & Mass Communication, TMC Academy, Singapore. ABSTRACT TV arrived in Singapore on 15 February 1963 and since its inaugural launch Singapore’s TV industry has undoubtedly developed over the years. In the context of the four theories of the press, it can be quickly concluded that Singapore’s TV industry is Authoritarian by its regulative nature. Despite being a democratic country, the freedom to express freely what is on one’s mind through the use of TV as a medium is still extremely restrictive. As a result, there are many reasons as to why Singapore’s TV industry is still moderately unadventurous, especially where censorship is concerned. As the TV industry in Singapore is operated and fully controlled by the government, the content that appears on TV is usually highly censored, scripted to precision in accordance with the MDA guidelines, non-offensive and contain the usage of propaganda. This paper seeks to give a brief insight into not only the history and transformation of Singapore’s television (TV) industry to what it is today, but also to better understand how the said country’s TV industry currently operates, and how their content is produced as well as the impacts it has around the region. Keywords: Singapore, Television, Ownership, Censorship, Regulation. International Refereed Research Journal ■www.researchersworld.com■Vol.–V, Issue – 3, July 2014 [56] -Journal of Arts, Science & Commerce ■E-ISSN2229-4686■ISSN2231-4172 INTRODUCTION: In the context of the four theories of the press, it can be quickly concluded that Singapore’s TV industry is Authoritarian by its regulative nature.
