  • Cutting Patterns in DW Griffith's Biographs
    Cutting patterns in D.W. Griffith’s Biographs: An experimental statistical study Mike Baxter, 16 Lady Bay Road, West Bridgford, Nottingham, NG2 5BJ, U.K. (e-mail: [email protected]) 1 Introduction A number of recent studies have examined statistical methods for investigating cutting patterns within films, for the purposes of comparing patterns across films and/or for summarising ‘average’ patterns in a body of films. The present paper investigates how different ideas that have been proposed might be combined to identify subsets of similarly constructed films (i.e. exhibiting comparable cutting structures) within a larger body. The ideas explored are illustrated using a sample of 62 D.W Griffith Biograph one-reelers from the years 1909–1913. Yuri Tsivian has suggested that ‘all films are different as far as their SL struc- tures; yet some are less different than others’. Barry Salt, with specific reference to the question of whether or not Griffith’s Biographs ‘have the same large scale variations in their shot lengths along the length of the film’ says the ‘answer to this is quite clearly, no’. This judgment is based on smooths of the data using seventh degree trendlines and the observation that these ‘are nearly all quite different one from another, and too varied to allow any grouping that could be matched against, say, genre’1. While the basis for Salt’s view is clear Tsivian’s apparently oppos- ing position that some films are ‘less different than others’ seems to me to be a reasonably incontestable sentiment. It depends on how much you are prepared to simplify structure by smoothing in order to effect comparisons.

  • Kinetoscope Ao Kinetoscópio: Variações Sobre O Mesmo Tema
    1 DO KINETOSCOPE AO KINETOSCÓPIO: VARIAÇÕES SOBRE O MESMO TEMA JOSÉ INACIO DE MELO SOUZA1 RESUMO: Revisão bibliográfica e analítica sobre a apresentação do kinetoscópio na cidade de São Paulo em 1895. PALAVRAS-CHAVE: kinetoscópio; kinetoscope; Frederico Figner; Professor Kij; Thomas Alva Edison ABSTRACT: Review of the literature and analytical survey about the Edison’s Kinetoscope in the city of São Paulo in 1895. KEYWORDS: Kinetoscope, Frederico Figner; Professor Kij; Thomas Alva Edison No final da década de 1970, Maximo Barro, como declarou em 1987, conseguiu publicar sua pesquisa sobre a primeira sessão de projeções na tela com ingresso pago na cidade de São Paulo, realizada pelo fotógrafo de profissão Georges Renouleau.2 Logo depois, em 1981, foi a vez de Vicente de Paula Araújo lançar ao público o seu trabalho sobre o mesmo tema, Salões, circos e cinemas de São Paulo, editada pela Perspectiva, casa que lançara seu primeiro livro, tratando do cinema dos primórdios no Rio de Janeiro. O projeto historiográfico de ambos era eminentemente cronológico porém, para infelicidade de Araújo, o seu começava, em 1897, com o Vitascope (Vitascópio), inventado nos laboratórios de Thomas Alva Edison, e apresentado aos paulistanos pelo professor Kij. O engano de abordagem cometido por Araújo derivava de dois fatores. De um lado, os historiadores, naquele momento, tinham uma carência de documentação confiável, fosse aquela ainda dispersa pelos arquivos de particulares ou, se organizada, de difícil acesso, como acontecia com os ricos acervos cariocas de Adhemar Gonzaga e Pedro Lima, ou do distante Peri Ribas, em Pelotas, fosse pela falta de estrutura das cinematecas (Brasileira e do MAM), em fase de constituição dos seus arquivos filmográficos e bibliográficos.

  • The Uses of Animation 1
    The Uses of Animation 1 1 The Uses of Animation ANIMATION Animation is the process of making the illusion of motion and change by means of the rapid display of a sequence of static images that minimally differ from each other. The illusion—as in motion pictures in general—is thought to rely on the phi phenomenon. Animators are artists who specialize in the creation of animation. Animation can be recorded with either analogue media, a flip book, motion picture film, video tape,digital media, including formats with animated GIF, Flash animation and digital video. To display animation, a digital camera, computer, or projector are used along with new technologies that are produced. Animation creation methods include the traditional animation creation method and those involving stop motion animation of two and three-dimensional objects, paper cutouts, puppets and clay figures. Images are displayed in a rapid succession, usually 24, 25, 30, or 60 frames per second. THE MOST COMMON USES OF ANIMATION Cartoons The most common use of animation, and perhaps the origin of it, is cartoons. Cartoons appear all the time on television and the cinema and can be used for entertainment, advertising, 2 Aspects of Animation: Steps to Learn Animated Cartoons presentations and many more applications that are only limited by the imagination of the designer. The most important factor about making cartoons on a computer is reusability and flexibility. The system that will actually do the animation needs to be such that all the actions that are going to be performed can be repeated easily, without much fuss from the side of the animator.

  • Film and Politics
    Politics and Film PS 350 – Spring 2015 Instructor: Jay Steinmetz – [email protected] Office hours and location: Wednesdays – 3 to 5, PLC 808 GTFs: TBD Culture constitutes shared signs and expressions that can reveal, determine, and otherwise influence politics. The film medium is perfectly tailored for this: the power of moving image with sound, reflected in public spaces, produces politically charged identities and influences the way spectators see themselves and their shared communities. Moreover, the interwoven nature of the economic and social in cinema makes it an especially intriguing site for observing change of political culture over time. The economic commodity of the cinema is necessarily social—a nexus of public and shared images of the world. Conversely, the social constraints (ie moral regulation or censorship of film content) is necessarily shaped by economic factors. The “Dream Machine” of Hollywood is a potent meaning-making site not just for Americans but across the world (today, roughly half of a Hollywood film’s revenue often comes from overseas), and so this course will pay close attention to Hollywood film texts and contexts in a global setting. The second half of the term (starting in Week 5) will shift to a comparative approach, contrasting American and Italian film styles, industries, regulatory concerns, and economic strategies. Analytic comparison is a crucial aspect of this course—be it comparisons across genres, time periods, films, or industries—and will culminate in a comparative research paper due on Week 10. There will be one film screening in class every week. Please note: Attendance to these screenings is part of your class responsibilities.

  • Pixar's 22 Rules of Story Analyzed
    PIXAR’S 22 RULES OF STORY (that aren’t really Pixar’s) ANALYZED By Stephan Vladimir Bugaj www.bugaj.com Twitter: @stephanbugaj © 2013 Stephan Vladimir Bugaj This free eBook is not a Pixar product, nor is it endorsed by the studio or its parent company. Introduction. In 2011 a former Pixar colleague, Emma Coats, Tweeted a series of storytelling aphorisms that were then compiled into a list and circulated as “Pixar’s 22 Rules Of Storytelling”. She clearly stated in her compilation blog post that the Tweets were “a mix of things learned from directors & coworkers at Pixar, listening to writers & directors talk about their craft, and via trial and error in the making of my own films.” We all learn from each other at Pixar, and it’s the most amazing “film school” you could possibly have. Everybody at the company is constantly striving to learn new things, and push the envelope in their own core areas of expertise. Sharing ideas is encouraged, and it is in that spirit that the original 22 Tweets were posted. However, a number of other people have taken the list as a Pixar formula, a set of hard and fast rules that we follow and are “the right way” to approach story. But that is not the spirit in which they were intended. They were posted in order to get people thinking about each topic, as the beginning of a conversation, not the last word. After all, a hundred forty characters is far from enough to serve as an “end all and be all” summary of a subject as complex and important as storytelling.
