Son inventaire s’étend du trucage le plus simple – un écran de fumée, par exemple (40-43) – aux effets spéciaux les plus élaborés, comme l’animation image par image (108-109) ou la construction de maquettes animées complexes (89, 146, 152). Le livre de Clark se veut un exposé technique, sans parti pris, et appuyé sur une solide connaissance pratique du métier de concepteur d’effets spéciaux.

  • The Arrival of the First Film Sound Systems in Spain (1895-1929)

Edison and the Lumière brothers worked assiduously to find a way to preserve and reproduce sound and images. The numerous inventions conceived in this period such as the Kinetophone, the Vitascope and the Cinematograph are testament to this and are nowadays consid- ered the forerunners of cinema. Most of these new technologies were presented at public screenings which generated a high level of interest. They attracted people from all social classes, who packed out the halls, theatres and hotels where they were held. This paper presents a review of the newspa- per and magazine articles published in Spain at the turn of the century in order to study the social reception of the first film equip- ment in the country, as well as to understand the role of music in relation to the images at these events and how the first film systems dealt with sound.

In this ground-breaking book, Derek B. Scott examines the cultural transfer of operetta from the German stage to Britain and the USA and offers a historical and critical survey of these operettas and their music. In the period 1900–1940, over sixty operettas were produced in the West End, and over seventy on Broadway. A study of these stage works is important for the light they shine on a variety of social topics of the period – from modernity and gender relations to new technology and new media – and these are investigated in the individual chapters. This book is also available as Open Access on Cambridge Core at doi.org/10.1017/9781108614306. derek b. scott is Professor of Critical Musicology at the University of Leeds.

They began working in the early 1900s, at the same time as Walt Disney, but while Disney went on to become a household name, the Fleischers are barely remembered. Our film will change this, introducing a wide national audience to a family of brothers – Max, Dave, Lou, Joe, and Charlie – who created Fleischer Studios and a roster of animated characters who reflected the rough and tumble sensibilities of their own Jewish immigrant neighborhood in Brooklyn, New York. “The Fleischer story involves the glory of American Jazz culture, union brawls on Broadway, gangsters, sex, and southern segregation,” says advisor Tom Sito. Advisor Jerry Beck adds, “It is a story of rags to riches – and then back to rags – leaving a legacy of iconic cinema and evergreen entertainment.” BUDGET Outright Request 600,000.00 Cost Sharing 90,000.00 Matching Request 0.00 Total Budget 690,000.00 Total NEH 600,000.00 GRANT ADMINISTRATOR Ms.

  • Lacon 1 Film Program
    BY WAY OF INTRODUCTION This film program represents for the most part an extremely personal selection by me, Bill Warren, with the help of Donald F. Glut. Usually convention film programs tend to show the established classics -- THINGS TO COME, METROPOLIS, WAR OF THE WORLDS, THEM - and, of course, those are good films. But they are seen so very often -- on tv, at non-sf film programs, at regional cons, and so forth -- that we decided to try to organize a program of good and/or entertaining movies that are rarely seen. We feel we have made a good selection, with films chosen for a variety of reasons. Some of the films on the program were, until quite recently, thought to be missing or impossible to view, like JUST IMAGINE, TRANSATLANTIC TUNNEL, or DR JEKYLL AND MR. HYDE. Others, since they are such glorious stinkers, have been relegated to 3 a.m. once-a-year tv showings, like VOODOO MAN or PLAN 9 FROM OUTER SPACE. Other fairly recent movies (and good ones, at that) were, we felt, seen by far too few people, either due to poor distribution by the releasing companies, or because they didn't make enough money to ensure a wide release, like TARGETS or THE DEVIL'S BRIDE. Still others are relatively obscure foreign films, a couple of which we took a sight-unseen gamble on, basing our selections on favorable reviews; this includes films like THE GLADIATORS and END OF AUGUST AT THE HOTEL OZONE. And finally, there are a number of films here which are personal favorites of Don's or mine which we want other people to like; this includes INTERNATIONAL HOUSE, MAD LOVE, NIGHT OF THE HUNTER, RADIO RANCH, and SPY SMASHER RETURNS.

Bushman as Messala, the villain of the piece, and Ramon Novarro, the hero, in " Ben Hut." PICTURESQUE PERSONALITIES OF THE PICTURES—PAST AND PRESENT ALTHOUGH the cinema as we know it now—and by that I mean plays made by moving pictures—is only about eighteen years old (for it was in the Wallace spring of 1908 that D. W. Griffith started to direct for Reid, the old Biograph), its short history is packed with whose death romance and tragedy. robbed the screen ofa boyish charm Picture plays there had been before Griffith came on and breezy cheer the scene. The first movie that could really be called iness that have a picture play was " The Soldier's Courtship," made by never been replaced. an Englishman, Robert W. Paul, on the roof of the Alhambra Theatre in 18% ; but it was in the Biograph Studio that the real start was made with the film play. Here Mary Pickford started her screen career, to be followed later by Lillian and Dorothy Gish, and the three Talmadge sisters. Natalie Talmadge did not take as kindly to film acting as did her sisters, and when Norma and Constance had made a name and the family had gone from New York to Hollywood Natalie went into the business side of the films and held some big positions before she retired on her marriage with Buster Keaton.

  • Mabel Normand
    Mabel Normand Also Known As: Mabel Fortescue Lived: November 9, 1892 - February 23, 1930 Worked as: co-director, comedienne, director, film actress, producer, scenario writer Worked In: United States by Simon Joyce, Jennifer Putzi Mabel Normand starred in at least one hundred and sixty-seven film shorts and twenty-three full- length features, mainly for Mack Sennett’s Keystone Film Company, and was one of the earliest silent actors to function as her own director. She was also one of the first leading performers to appear on film without a previous background in the theatre (having begun her career in modeling), to be named in the title of her films (beginning with 1912’s Mabel’s Lovers), and to have her own studio (the ill-fated Mabel Normand Feature Film Company). That her contributions to early film history are not better known is attributable in part to her involvement in the Hollywood scandals of the 1920s, and in part to our reliance on the self-interested memoirs of her better-known colleagues (especially Sennett and Charlie Chaplin) following her death at age thirty-eight. It is hard to get an accurate picture from such questionable and contradictory recollections, or from interviews with Normand herself, filtered as they often were through a sophisticated publicity operation at Keystone. Film scholars who have worked with these same sources have often proved just as discrepant and unreliable, especially in their accounts of her directorial contributions. Normand’s early career included stints at the Biograph Company, working with D. W. Griffith, and at the Vitagraph Company, yet it was her work at Keystone that solidified her image as slapstick comedienne.

  • Prólogo La Figura Del Gran Buster Keaton Está Actualmente Un Poco
    Prólogo La figura del gran Buster Keaton está actualmente un poco olvidada ya que las últimas genera- ciones de espectadores no es demasiado cinéfila y está más acostumbrada al cine (?) de la última hornada. El cinéfilo refinado, sibarita, está en crisis y los amantes del cine mudo pade- cen de sequía en los “video-clubs”, donde muy rara vez y con cuentagotas se encuentran aque- llos títulos míticos que tanto nos interesan. Años atrás, sobretodo a partir de los años 30, Kea- ton sufrió un eclipse debido al culto excesivo que se hacía entonces al gran Charles Chaplin. Por si fuera poco, en España, se le conocía por un horrible apodo, “Pamplinas”, del cual prefie- ro no hablar por que lo considero sumamente vulgar. Después están los falsos mitos que siempre han rodeado la filmografía de Buster Keaton. Por ejemplo, que estuvo encerrado varios años en un manicomio lo cual es completamente falso. Si es cierto que tenía una excesiva afición al juego y a la bebida que terminaron por destruir su reputación y su carrera. Puesto en la “lista negra” por Louis B.Mayer, ningún estudio quería darle trabajo condenándolo a un ostracismo injusto. Aquí se ha escrito mucha (mala) literatura al respecto. Mayer y Keaton tuvieron problemas personales y diferencias respecto a lo que debía ser un buen film cómico sonoro. El tiempo le ha dado la razón a éste, porque los cómicos que el zar Mayer aupó hoy no son más que un recuerdo. ¿Quién se acuerda hoy de Eddie Cantor o de Jimmy Durante por citar a alguien? Al llegar el sonoro a Keaton le reprocharon tener una voz ronca, muy grave, y Mayer le quiso marginar para proteger a Jimmy Durante, quién tenía una voz aún más ronca, y pretendieron encerrarle en las comedias de boulevard importadas desde Broadway en vez de desarrollar películas más estrictamente cinematográficas que los talkies de aquella década.
