Arts Council England’s mission is 'great art and culture for everyone'. We work to achieve this by championing, developing and investing in arts and cultural experiences that enrich people's lives. 2. As the national development agency for the arts, museums and libraries, we support a range of activities from theatre to music, reading to dance, photography to digital art, carnival to crafts. We support and invest in high quality arts practice and the best emerging practitioners that represent the backbone of our cultural infrastructure and contribute to the future of the UK’s dynamic creative economy. 3. The Arts Council directly invests between £4- 5m each year in public service content initiatives, distributed both online and on television. We work closely with Channel 4, BBC, Sky, Google and others to support innovation in the accessibility and the growth of great arts and culture digitally.1 In addition Arts Council funded organisations are increasingly producing work of this nature as part of their creative mission. This includes companies across England like the National Theatre, Miracle Theatre in Cornwall, BALTIC Centre for Contemporary Art in Newcastle Gateshead, Royal Opera House, and Norfolk Museums. 4. Our response to the Select Committee focusses on Channel 4 Corporation’s (C4C) engagement with arts and culture. This includes its investment in arts, music and specialist factual programming as well as its important role within the wider cultural ecology and creative industries. 5. The Arts Council believes that: A strong Channel 4 with a continued Public Sector Broadcasting (PSB) remit is critical to the UK’s art, culture and creativity. Channel 4’s innovative arts, music and specialist factual programming makes an essential contribution to current and future PSB plurality. As the main creative competitor to the BBC, it delivers public benefit through increasing audience choice, driving up quality and achieving mass impact and reach. This also impacts on wider public engagement in arts and culture As well as extending broadcast and online output for the arts, Channel 4 is also plays an important role nurturing new voices, talent and diversity within the wider cultural and creative industries. Any consideration of the future sustainability of C4C should consider how it will maintain and strengthen both its current investment in arts and cultural 1 The Arts Council’s Creative Media policy http://www.artscouncil.org.uk/document/creative-media-policy 1 Arts Council England – written evidence (SCF0016) programming and its successful collaborations with arts and cultural organisations Channel 4 could expand delivery of its arts and cultural remit by sharing its expertise, data and platforms with cultural organisations for public benefit. They could do this is by developing and commissioning a new wave of regional independent producers from the arts and culture sector. Any changes to C4C’s business model must ensure its existing public benefit is protected and fulfilled at a minimum. Changes which might lead to reduced PSB remit and reduced original content investment across key genres such as the arts should be avoided. Funding Is C4C financially sustainable? Is the revenue provided by advertising sufficient to make Channel 4 Corporation (C4C) sustainable? 6. Recent independent economic analyses by Ofcom2, Ernst and Young 3 and Enders Analysis4 suggest C4C is financially sustainable. These three reports consider C4C’s place within the wider current and future market, and its resilience to address the impact of digital disruption. Ofcom states that it re-licenced C4C until 2024 on the basis of its current model. 7. Any consideration of the future sustainability of C4C must demonstrate that it is able to continue to balance its commercial sustainability with successful delivery of its public service obligations. Since 2008 there has been a steep 25% reduction in arts and music original content across the PSB compact.5 It would be concerning if the current investments in C4C arts and music genre programming were to further decline. At present C4C has a broad cultural offer reaching a diverse audience, and the potential to reach niche markets not served by other broadcasters. This offer would likely be reduced and narrowed. Are there any other commercial/non-commercial revenue streams which could/should be explored? 8. Channel 4 is an important source of public investment in the arts and through its specialist factual output, in history, science and ideas that support our knowledge economy. 2 “In relicensing the core C4 service for ten years in 2014, we made it clear that we believed that the current funding model for that channel was sustainable.” From Public Service Content in a Connected Society, Ofcom’s third review of public service broadcasting (Dec 2014) http://stakeholders.ofcom.org.uk/broadcasting/reviews-

  • A Quiet Revolution
    A quiet revolution The moral economies shaping journalists’ use of NGO-provided multimedia in mainstream news about Africa Katherine Wright Goldsmiths, University of London A thesis submitted for the degree of PhD in Media and Communications 2014 1 Declaration I hereby declare that this submission is my own work and that, to the best of my knowledge and belief, it contains no material previously published or written by another person, nor material which has been accepted for the award of any other degree or diploma of the university or other institute of higher learning, except where due acknowledgement has been made in the text. 2 Acknowledgements With grateful thanks to my study participants for their time, trust and candour - without you there would be no study. I also want to thank my supervisor, Natalie Fenton, who manages to combine the sharpest of minds with the warmest of hearts. Your support has meant so much to me over the past few years. The encouragement and constructive criticism of others at Goldsmiths has also been invaluable, especially Aeron Davis, Des Freedman and Gholam Khiabany, who all kindly read drafts of chapters for me. Next, I want to note my debt to my dear colleagues in Journalism at the University of Roehampton. I especially want to thank Ros Coward, whose passionate belief that practitioners should ‘get into’ research started me off down this route in the first place. In addition, the words of advice and support from colleagues at other institutions have been really helpful, especially those of Mel Bunce, Lilie Chouliaraki, Glenda Cooper, Nick Couldry, Shani Orgad, Chris Paterson, Martin Scott, Helen Yanacopulos and Silvio Waisbord.

  • Ebook Download City of Lies: Love, Sex, Death and the Search for Truth in Tehran Ebook
    CITY OF LIES: LOVE, SEX, DEATH AND THE SEARCH FOR TRUTH IN TEHRAN PDF, EPUB, EBOOK Ramita Navai | 320 pages | 11 Jun 2015 | Orion Publishing Co | 9781780225128 | English | London, United Kingdom City of Lies: Love, Sex, Death and the Search for Truth in Tehran PDF Book Survival there depends on dodging the fatwas of Iran's medieval theocratic regime. Navai slips effortlessly into the boots of earthy, urban writer to tour Tehran's ripped backsides in this intimate, grand guignol debut. It's a bit like Guy Fawkes night, in England. Navai paints an intimate portrait of those discreet recesses in a city where the difference between modesty and profanity, loyalty and betrayal, honor and disgrace is often no more than the believability of a lie. If you have a problem, or a moral question, you can look them up. I didn't write them to shock. It's a microcosm of the city. And the lies that are necessary to lead a life that is more in keeping with one's own ideas and has less in common with those of the nation's rulers, without coming to the attention of religious leaders, the morality police or the intelligence agency. It is an instrument of power or a way of rebelling — and in addition for many women the only way to lead a reasonably independent life. You chose, as your focus, one street in Tehran— Vali Asr Street. Two of them are reading it now, though they're not in the country at the moment. Their sense of humor.

  • Diamond Technical Account and Methodology
    Diamond Technical Account and Methodology What is Diamond? Diamond is designed to answer two questions: - Does the workforce on UK productions, both on and off-screen, reflect the diversity of the UK population? - Are audiences seeing themselves reflected on-screen. With the support of production companies, Diamond collects diversity data directly from cast and crew working on TV programmes (actual data), as well as information about how those on-screen might be perceived by viewing audiences (perceived data). Diamond data collection Scope Diamond is collecting data from: UK original productions commissioned by BBC, ITV, Channel 4, C5/ViacomCBS and Sky. All genres (although we do not currently report on film, sport and news) A large number of on and off-screen TV production roles (see Appendix 2) Programmes broadcast across the following channels BBC One, BBC Two, BBC Scotland, CBBC, CBEEBIES, CITV, GMTV1, GMTV2, ITV Encore, ITV1, ITV2, ITV3, ITV4, ITVBe, 4seven, Channel4, E4, Film Four, More 4, 5 Star, Channel5, Challenge TV, Paramount Network, Pick TV, Real Lives, Sky Arts, Sky Atlantic, Sky One, Sky Two, Sky Witness1 Data about 6 diversity characteristics: gender, gender identity, age, ethnicity, disability and sexual orientation. Diamond is not collecting data about: Programmes which have not been commissioned by the five Diamond broadcasters People working across broadcasting more generally, outside of production (our data are not overall workforce statistics). People who are not making a significant contribution to a programme (for example part of a crowd scene) More information about what is and isn’t collected can be found in the guidance notes issued to producers.
