The experimental art of Arthur and Corinne Cantrill.

Mikhail, Samia, fasisami@netspace.net.au January 2006 (has links)
This thesis analyses the effect of the personal history of Arthur and Corinne Cantrill, two Australian independent filmmakers, on their style of filmmaking. It analyses their representation of film-form experimentation within national Australian art in a range of independent film works. It reflects on their cultural relation to the general history of independent filmmaking in Australia, America and Europe. It studies the circumstances tat resulted in the appearance of the Cantrills' experimental film and their relation to international art theories and film experimentation. This thesis will examine how the Cantrills' film works, which were often critical of conventional filmmaking styles, and their critical writing, statements and promotion of their independent and experimental film work contributed significantly to theoretical discussion and argument about the physical nature of film within Australia. This examination is explored through asking and answering the central question: The work of Aurtheur and Corinne Cantrell is theoretically drawn from a tradition of European arts and visually drawn from Australian landscape and urban culture; can their work be identified and undertood as Australian art?

A dark new world : anatomy of Australian horror films

Ryan, Mark David January 2008 (has links)
After experimental beginnings in the 1970s, a commercial push in the 1980s, and an underground existence in the 1990s, from 2000 to 2007 contemporary Australian horror production has experienced a period of strong growth and relative commercial success unequalled throughout the past three decades of Australian film history. This study explores the rise of contemporary Australian horror production: emerging production and distribution models; the films produced; and the industrial, market and technological forces driving production. Australian horror production is a vibrant production sector comprising mainstream and underground spheres of production. Mainstream horror production is an independent, internationally oriented production sector on the margins of the Australian film industry producing titles such as Wolf Creek (2005) and Rogue (2007), while underground production is a fan-based, indie filmmaking subculture, producing credit-card films such as I know How Many Runs You Scored Last Summer (2006) and The Killbillies (2002). Overlap between these spheres of production, results in ‘high-end indie’ films such as Undead (2003) and Gabriel (2007) emerging from the underground but crossing over into the mainstream. Contemporary horror production has been driven by numerous forces, including a strong worldwide market demand for horror films and the increasing international integration of the Australian film industry; the lowering of production barriers with the rise of digital video; the growth of niche markets and online distribution models; an inflow of international finance; and the rise of international partnerships. In light of this study, a ‘national cinema’ as an approach to cinema studies needs reconsideration – real growth is occurring across national boundaries due to globalisation and at the level of genre production rather than within national boundaries through pure cultural production. Australian cinema studies – tending to marginalise genre films – needs to be more aware of genre production. Global forces and emerging distribution models, among others, are challenging the ‘narrowness’ of cultural policy in Australia – mandating a particular film culture, circumscribing certain notions of value and limiting the variety of films produced domestically.

No. of bitstreams: 1 Arquivototal.pdf: 3391668 bytes, checksum: 5bfbc005d4bd77755a693aa1e263e444 (MD5) Previous issue date: 2017-06-12 / Coordenação de Aperfeiçoamento de Pessoal de Nível Superior - CAPES / In the midst of both technological evolution and democratization of the means for audiovisual production within the 21st century, we are experiencing a moment of effervescence in Cinema with new possibilities for independent film-making through the creative employment of digital technologies. Both the attempt at finding alternative strategies in Brazilian cinema and the arising of novel models for audiovisual production provide an advantageous field for academic studies on social and economic contexts and ways of organization within film-making. I intend to reflect about the recent production process in the Brazilian cinema by observing experiences that seek for solutions that are different from the hegemonic industrial model and that appear as a cornerstone for cinema in the digital era. The study here presented considers the following elements as a tripod for audiovisual production: equipaments, funding, and the team. I suggest that the technical, the economic, and the affective fields are crucial for understanding the above mentioned elements within independent cinema. Within this scenario, the thesis examines modes of production in contemporary cinema by taking the model undertaken by Cooperativa Filmes a Granel from Paraíba state - which is part of what we call the Digital Phase of cinema in Paraíba - as a case study. / Frente ao processo de evolução tecnológica e à democratização dos meios de produção audiovisual no século XXI, vivenciamos um momento de efervescência com as possibilidades de realização independente, através da utilização criativa das tecnologias digitais. A busca por estratégias alternativas no cinema brasileiro e o surgimento de novos modelos de produção audiovisual oferecem um terreno profícuo para estudos acadêmicos sobre o contexto socioeconômico e as formas de organização no fazer fílmico. Pretendemos refletir sobre a produção recente, a partir da observação de experiências que buscam soluções diferentes do modelo hegemônico industrial e que constituem em uma mola propulsora para o cinema na era digital. A pesquisa aqui proposta considera como tripé de sustentação para uma produção audiovisual os seguintes elementos: os equipamentos, os recursos financeiros e a equipe. Sugerimos os campos técnico, econômico e afetivo para compreender tais pontos no cinema independente. Diante deste cenário, essa dissertação versa sobre modos de produção no cinema contemporâneo, tendo como estudo de caso o modelo paraibano da Cooperativa Filmes a Granel, que se insere no que chamamos de Fase Digital do cinema na Paraíba.

A people's director: Jia Zhangke's cinematic style

Luo, Yaxi 01 August 2017 (has links)
As a leading figure of “The Six Generation” directors, Jia Zhangke’s films focus on reality of contemporary Chinese society, and record the lives of people who were left behind after the country’s urbanization process. He depicts a lot of characters who struggle with their lives, and he works to explore one common question throughout all of his films: “where do I belong?” Jia Zhangke uses unique filmmaking techniques in order to emphasize the feelings of people losing their sense of home. In this thesis, I am going to analyze his cinematic style from three perspectives: photography, musical scores and metaphors. In each chapter, I will use one film as the main subject of discussion and reference other films to complement my analysis. / Graduate

Conditional Truths: Remapping Paths To Documentary 'Independence'

Lang, Ian William, n/a January 2003 (has links)
(Synopsis to introductory statement): An introductory statement to five documentary films made by Ian Lang in Australia between 1981 and 1997 exemplifying  a 'democratising' model of sustainable and ethical documentary film production. This document critically reflects on the production process of these films to accompany their submission for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy by Publication at Griffith University. It finds that a contemporary tendency towards 'post-industrial' conditions allows an observational film-maker to negotiate a critical inter-dependence rather than a romantically conceived 'independence' traditional to the genre. [Full thesis consists of introductory statement plus six DVD videodiscs.]
