  • 2014 BAFTA Breakthrough Brits, in Partnership with Burberry
    2014 BAFTA Breakthrough Brits, in partnership with Burberry Jonathan Asser - Writer Jonathan Asser, 50, grew up in Tadmarton, Oxfordshire and now lives in Camden, north London. His first ever script became 2013’s powerful and visceral prison drama Starred Up. For the film, Asser was named Best British Newcomer award at the 2013 BFI London Film Festival and was nominated in Best Screenplay category at the British Independent Film Awards. The film drew on Asser’s own experience of working as a psychotherapist within the prison system, where he developed a new therapeutic way to help violent criminals called Shame/Violence Intervention. Asser said: “I feel proud to have been named as a BAFTA Breakthrough Brit. It feels like an honour and it’s also humbling to be associated with such a talented group of much younger people. It means a lot to me and to my future.” Mike Brett & Steve Jamison - Producer/Directors Mike Brett, 33, grew up in Haywards Heath, Sussex and now lives in Tufnell Park, north London. Steve Jamison, 33, grew up in Saddleworth, Greater Manchester and now lives in Hackney, east London. Brett and Jamison have taken a circuitous route into filmmaking, with past careers between them including teaching, journalism, advertising agency scriptwriting, and as an artist. In 2008 they set up their production company, Archer’s Mark. Their debut documentary feature, Next Goal Wins, about the American Samoan soccer team, reportedly the worst football team in the world, was released earlier this year to critical acclaim. As well as directing their own films, both factual and fictional, Brett and Jamison are also keen to support other new filmmakers with the production and release of their features.

  • Watching the Asian Body on Western Screens and but the Girl
    INVENTORY OF PAIN: WATCHING THE ASIAN BODY ON WESTERN SCREENS and BUT THE GIRL Jessica Yu 0000-0002-9570-2667 Submitted in total fulfilment of the requirements of the degree of Doctor of Philosophy (by creative work and dissertation) November 2019 The School of Culture and Communication The University of Melbourne ABSTRACT The title of this thesis, “Inventory of Pain,” draws on Edward Said’s idea that Orientalism was an attempt to “inventory the traces upon me [him], the Oriental subject, of the culture whose domination has been so powerful a factor in the life of all Orientals” (25). In this thesis, I make an inventory of the painful traces upon me and others like me from being constructed both vaguely and specifically as an “Asian” body in Australia. In my work, being constructed as an Asian body is not taken as an abstract or theoretical idea. Rather, it is described as a material and mundane, sticky and violent, lived and living experience. I use mainstream Australian and American films and television shows as case studies to discuss the implications of not just these Othering texts but of being seen and of seeing oneself as “Other” through them. I focus on mainstream screen texts because of the way that the racially inscribed film and media stereotypes they frequently deal in become part of our cultural memories. While such stereotypes are not determinative they still have what Kent Ono and Vincent Pham call a “controlling social power”; in a recent study, Chyng Sun et al. found that while stereotypes of Asian characters on screen were seen as accurate by many of those surveyed and for Asian-Americans these stereotypes evoked a sense of pain.

I had always been enthralled about stories regarding fantastical worlds, and Rowling’s stories are so remarkably thought-out, that the Latin-based Incantations to even minor character’s name contain a deeper subliminal meaning. That is, until we look at Harry’s first love interest, Cho Chang. It appears that many readers are absolutely perplexed about Cho Chang’s ethnicity. Her name indicates an Asian ethnic origin, but this distinction stops there. There are partial interpretations of her name within Japanese and Chinese languages, however, the full name does not make complete sense in either language.

  • Sir Ian Mclellan in Shakespeare
    'ACTING GOOD PARTS WELL': SIR IAN McKELLEN IN SHAKESPEARE by HILARY EDITH W. LONG A thesis submitted to the Faculty of Arts of the University of Birmingham for the degree of DOCTOR OF PHILOSOPHY The Shakespeare Institute School of English Faculty of Arts The University of Birmingham March 2000 University of Birmingham Research Archive e-theses repository This unpublished thesis/dissertation is copyright of the author and/or third parties.

Any use made of information contained in this thesis/dissertation must be in accordance with that legislation and must be properly acknowledged. Further distribution or reproduction in any format is prohibited without the permission of the copyright holder. SYNOPSIS This thesis examines the performances which have earned Sir lan McKellen a reputation as one of the foremost Shakespearean actors of the day. His reputation has been built on five major performances: Richard II, Macbeth, Coriolanus, lago and Richard III. His performances as Hamlet, Romeo, Leontes and Kent were only limited successes. This thesis places McKellen's performances in these roles in the specific context of the production as a whole. Where it is relevant it assesses the significance of the casting of other roles, the influence of the personality, style and interests of the director, the policy of the theatre company and the impact of the performance space. This thesis identifies patterns in McKellen's work determined by his own personality and sexuality, the Cambridge education he shares with Sir Peter Hall, John Barton and Trevor Nunn, and his relationships with other actors.
