Abstract:
In the American silent movie era, women were not associated with the ability to perform stunt work, drive an automobile without a man present, or be much more than a supporting face in a film, despite the fact that there were more female film writers, directors and producers than male in that era, the importance of “automotive citizenship,” and the added difficulty of women’s stunt work (women performed high risk stunts like jumping from buildings, etc., but they had to do it in gowns, and bikinis); today, women and minorities are highly under-represented in boardrooms, director’s chairs, and

Abstract:
IntroductionThis paper argues that the industrial contexts of re-imagining, or transforming, literary icons deploy the promotional strategies that are associated with what are usually seen as lesser, or purely commercial, genres. Promotional paratexts (Genette Paratexts; Gray; Hills) reveal transformations of content that position audiences to receive them as creative innovations, superior in many senses to their literary precursors due to the distinctive expertise of creative professionals. This interpretation leverages Matt Hills’ argument that certain kinds of “quality” screened drama are d

 Having been called upon to provide a contribution to a publication dedicated to “Techne”, I feel it is fitting to start from the theme of technique, given that for too many years now, we have fruitlessly attempted to understand the inner workings of cinema whilst disregarding the element of technique. And this has posed a significant problem in our field of study, as it would be impossible to gain a true understanding of what cinema is without immersing ourselves in the technical and industrial culture of the 19th century.

Abstract:
Since the first days of the World Wide Web, artists like myself have been exploring the new possibilities of network interactivity. Some good tools and languages have been developed and made available free for the public to use. This has empowered individuals to participate in the media in ways that are quite remarkable. Nonetheless, the future of independent media is clouded by legal, regulatory, and organisational challenges that need to be addressed. It is not clear to what extent independent content producers will be able to build upon the successes of the 90s – it is yet to be seen whethe

Abstract:
Introduction “Unboxing the New Barbie” explores Barbie’s new image in Greta Gerwig’s 2023 film, Barbie, where Barbie appears initially in a perfect shape and enjoys her ideal life in Barbie Land. The film presents Barbie Land as a female-dominated space with Barbies at the centre of authority, with a utopic lifestyle of freedom and joy. However, the film immediately troubles this utopia through a set of cinematic devices. First, the stereotypical Barbie’s life appears as a series of monotonous routines within the pink plastic structures, and later, her utopic body image and Barbie Land are dis

Abstract:
Abstract In 1914, when his path crossed that of Thomas Dixon Jr. for the second time in their lives, David Wark Griffith was already a commanding figure in American cinema. The principal director for the Biograph company since 1908, Griffith had produced more than four hundred motion pictures before quitting Biograph in late 1913 to produce longer films. Griffith’s interest in using Dixon’s story of The Clansman as the basis for a film was to lead to the release of The Birth of a Nation. It was also in many ways to transform the American film industry. To appreciate Griffith’s part in making T

Abstract:
This is not a book about Pontius Pilate. Not really. It is a book, instead, about what Pilate means, and has meant, on film and television. While this means looking to the religious and historical significance of the Roman prefect, there are a host of other issues I hope to unpack in this volume. Among these matters is the political context in which any given film was produced, as well as the “office politics” which often require archival exploration to uncover. In the yellowing memoranda and hand-written notes as well as the email records of newer films, one sees just how much behind-the-scen
