DO Presskit.Pdf Logline On her first day in Afghanistan, an interpreter for the US Army is forced to deliver the child of an enemy bomb-maker. Short Synopsis Inspired by a true story, an Afghan-American woman on the heels of a divorce joins the US Military as an interpreter. On her first day of deployment in Afghanistan, her unit searches out the remote house of a bomb-maker. When the bomb-maker's pregnant wife goes into labor, the interpreter must go beyond the call of duty to deliver her breech child. Long Synopsis No husband, no job, no future: Feda, a recently divorced thirty-year-old Afghan-American woman, has been ostracized by her conservative Muslim community. Intent on reclaiming control of her life, she makes the bold decision to return to her birthplace as an interpreter for US forces in Afghanistan. On Feda’s first day in country, her unit raids the house of an enemy bomb-maker, his pregnant wife and their little girl. When the pregnant woman is accidentally knocked over and goes into labor, Feda must deliver her breech child, as local custom forbids the soldiers from entering the room. DAY ONE is a story of humanity in the theater of war -- the miracle of birth bridging the chasm, even if only for a moment, between two cultures at war. In 2009, the director served his second tour of duty in Afghanistan as a Captain in the US Army. This story is inspired by the interpreter with whom he served. 2/20 Team Bios Henry Hughes Michael Steiner WRITER/DIRECTOR PRODUCER Michael Steiner grew up in Boulder, Colorado.

  • Phd Manuscript 190429 Plain Text
    The Presence of Performance and the Stakes of Serial Drama: Accrual, Transience, Companionship Elliott Logan MPhil (University of Queensland, 2013) BA, Hons (University of Queensland, 2009) BA (University of Queensland, 2007) A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy at The University of Queensland in 2018 School of Communication and Arts Abstract This thesis shows how performance is a critically neglected but crucial aspect of serial television drama as an art form. One of serial drama’s obvious storytelling attractions is its ability to involve viewers in relationships between characters over long periods of time. Such involvement takes place through a recurring structure of episodes and seasons, whose unfolding reflects the extensive, ongoing history through which interpersonal bonds form and develop, deepen and decay. The characters we watch onscreen are embodied and performed by actors. Television studies, however, has persistently overlooked screen performance, hampering appreciation of serial drama’s affinity with long-term relationships as a resource for aesthetic significance. Redressing such neglect, this thesis directs new critical attention to expressive stylistic relationships between serial form, screen performance, and the subject of companionship in some recent US serial dramas. The focus of that attention is a particular aesthetic quality: the provisional, which emerges through serial drama’s distinctive tension between permanence and transience. In the first chapter, I argue that the provisional is central to an affinity between screen performance, seriality in television drama, and companionship as an aspect of human life. Chapters Two and Three then show how the art of the provisional in particular series has been underappreciated due to television studies’ neglect of performance and expressiveness as dimensions of serial form in television fiction.

  • So You Want a Job in Film and Television? There Are Huge Numbers of Young People Competing for Very Few Jobs. It Is Difficult To
    So you want a job in film and television? There are huge numbers of young people competing for very few jobs. It is difficult to stress exactly how competitive film and television work is, but a good guide is that 9 out of 10 actors are out of work at any given time. Up until recently you had to be a member of the actor’s union Equity to get a professional acting job– and you were allowed an Equity Card only after you had worked professionally for some time. Thankfully this catch 22 situation no longer exists, although the film and television industry remains a very closed shop to all but the most dedicated and well connected. Only 6% of actors earn more than £30,000 per year. A recent survey found that nearly half of those working in the UK film and television industry earned less than £6,000 a year from the profession. Many actors and film makers work for very little, especially at the beginning of their careers. Most jobs are short term. Many experienced actors and film makers need to do other work to supplement their income. If you are you still interested in film and television work after reading the above information, then you clearly have the strong commitment necessary to begin a career in film and TV. However, commitment on its own is not enough. How can I get a career in film and television? You need specific training and experience in film and TV. Most of the careers below require formal training, usually in the form of academic courses.
