February 26, 2021 Amazon Warehouse Workers In
February 26, 2021 Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer, Alabama are voting to form a union with the Retail, Wholesale and Department Store Union (RWDSU). We are the writers of feature films and television series. All of our work is done under union contracts whether it appears on Amazon Prime, a different streaming service, or a television network. Unions protect workers with essential rights and benefits. Most importantly, a union gives employees a seat at the table to negotiate fair pay, scheduling and more workplace policies. Deadline Amazon accepts unions for entertainment workers, and we believe warehouse workers deserve the same respect in the workplace. We strongly urge all Amazon warehouse workers in Bessemer to VOTE UNION YES. In solidarity and support, Megan Abbott (DARE ME) Chris Abbott (LITTLE HOUSE ON THE PRAIRIE; CAGNEY AND LACEY; MAGNUM, PI; HIGH SIERRA SEARCH AND RESCUE; DR.

Bab I Pendahuluan
BAB I PENDAHULUAN 1.1 Latar Belakang Masalah Cangara 2002 dalam Wahyuningsih 2019 menjelaskan bahwa Film dalam arti sempit adalah penyajian gambar melalui layar lebar. Sedangkan perngertian luasnya film diartikan sebagai gambar yang disiarkan melalui televisi (TV) dapat pula dikategorikan sebagai film. Gambel 1986 dalam Wahyuningsih 2019 mengartikan film sebagai sebuah rangkaian gambar statis yang direpresentasikan dihadapan mata secara berturut-turut dalam kecepatan yang tinggi. Jean Luc Godard, sineas new wave yang berasal dari Perancis, memiliki pengertian berbeda, Jean mengartikan film sebagai ―papan tulis‖, ia berpendapat bahwa sebuah film yang revosioner dapat menunjukkan bagaimana perjuangan senjata dapat dilakukan.1 Sejarah menunjukkan perkembangan film berawal dari abad ke-19 ketika ditemukannya pita seluloid. Pada saat itu film muncul dengan sajian visual tampa warna (hitam-putih) dan sajian film dalam bentuk suara. Film dengan sajian visual dan suara (film bersuara) mulai dikenal pada akhir 1920-an, dan mengalami perkembangan menjadi film berwarna pada tahun 1930-an. Sumarno 1996 dalam Wahyuningsih 2019 mengatakan evolusi film dari masa-kemasa didukung oleh peralatan produksi film yang turut berkembang seiring perkembangan zaman sehingga film masih layak menjadi tontonan yang menarik bagi khalayak luas sampai saat ini.

HBO: Brand Management and Subscriber Aggregation: 1972-2007
1 HBO: Brand Management and Subscriber Aggregation: 1972-2007 Submitted by Gareth Andrew James to the University of Exeter as a thesis for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in English, January 2011. This thesis is available for Library use on the understanding that it is copyright material and that no quotation from the thesis may be published without proper acknowledgement. I certify that all material in this thesis which is not my own work has been identified and that no material has previously been submitted and approved for the award of a degree by this or any other University. ........................................ 2 Abstract The thesis offers a revised institutional history of US cable network Home Box Office that expands on its under-examined identity as a monthly subscriber service from 1972 to 1994. This is used to better explain extensive discussions of HBO‟s rebranding from 1995 to 2007 around high-quality original content and experimentation with new media platforms. The first half of the thesis particularly expands on HBO‟s origins and early identity as part of publisher Time Inc. from 1972 to 1988, before examining how this affected the network‟s programming strategies as part of global conglomerate Time Warner from 1989 to 1994. Within this, evidence of ongoing processes for aggregating subscribers, or packaging multiple entertainment attractions around stable production cycles, are identified as defining HBO‟s promotion of general monthly value over rivals. Arguing that these specific exhibition and production strategies are glossed over in existing HBO scholarship as a result of an over-valuing of post-1995 examples of „quality‟ television, their ongoing importance to the network‟s contemporary management of its brand across media platforms is mapped over distinctions from rivals to 2007.
