  • The Art of the Episode - Beginning of the Fifth Act
    The art of the episode - beginning of the fifth act. The eighth and final season of Game of Thrones has begun. As a reminder: Dramaturgically speaking, this series is rather a long epic feature film and follows the corresponding rules. This structural structure is complemented by a historical drama in the tradition of Shakespeare. Therefore, Game of Thrones doesn't follow the rules of a series in which each episode must have a dramatic climax on the vertical narrative level. With this series of weekly comments on this series I complete the book "Game of Thrones sehen", published in 2017. With this eighth season the fifth act begins. Accordingly, the art of the first episode of this last season is not only to recall important aspects of the previous action after the long production and waiting period, but also to organize the necessary explicit action for the decisive fifth act. References to previous events must be included, especially to those of the first act, in this case the first and second season, which corresponds to the dramaturgical requirements of a last act of a feature film. This referential level is already established in the first scene when we observe a boy (Felix Jamieson) walking through the crowd to climb a tree to better observe the approaching troops. This scene reflects on the one hand the scene from the first season, in which Bran spotted the approaching caravan of King Robert from the lookout at Winterfell Castle. The boy's about the same age as Bran was in the first season.

  • That Thing You Do That Thing You Do
    That Thing You Do 1. The scene in the movie when they first hear their song on the radio demonstrates beautifully the importance of radio airplay in making artists popular during that era. What sort of role does radio play in music today? How do non-radio musical outlets of today compare to those of yesteryear (P2P networks, Internet radio, podcasts, etc.). Are they better or worse? 2. By the early 1960s music was being mass produced for the widest ranging audience possible by ”hit factory” song writers or “cubicle” artists whose full time job, 9-5, was to make hit songs. The Beatles helped to change this and establish the trend of rock acts writing and performing their own music. As an artist of this new era, Jimmy, the lead singer/songwriter of the Oneders, is hesitant to sign a contract or involve money as it relates to his music. Why do you think he hesitates? What do you think the effect of money is on the music and the artist? What about on the artists themselves? Can money and musical success ever be separated? 3. How important is “image” in the commercialization of rock? Consider how Mr. White (Tom Hanks) crafts theirs. What is he trying to convey to the general public? Does the artist make the image or does the image make the artist? 4. Think about some examples of commercialism in music today. Has it changed since the 50s and 60s? Do you think artists are keeping more or less of their money? Has “the man” figured out new and/or better ways of making money off of musicians? 5.
