Belton (14) Hollywood in the Age of Television
Here are some key points about Hollywood blockbusters from the 1950s-60s and more recently:
- Epic historical dramas and biblical stories were very popular in the 1950s-60s blockbusters, appealing to a wide audience. Films like Ben-Hur and The Ten Commandments told grand stories on a massive scale.
- Spectacle and visual effects were highly emphasized, from large sets and battle scenes to VistaVision and Cinerama. This gave audiences an experience that couldn't be found on television.
- More recent blockbusters often rely on popular existing properties (superheroes, remakes), digital effects, and 3D to provide visual thrills and draw audiences back to theaters. Films like
Fall 2011 the emergence of cinema as an institution
The motion picture industry emerged as a powerful social and economic institution in the United States from the early 1900s to the mid-20th century. Movies became a popular weekly leisure activity for most Americans, resembling a social institution like church or clubs. The industry grew from Edison's early one-person kinetoscope exhibits to massive movie palaces that hundreds of thousands flocked to for entertainment and escape from daily life. Technological innovations, the rise of the star system, and focus on complex narratives transformed movies into a mainstream form of mass media.
Belton Chapter 1 The Emergence of Cinema as an Institution
The cinema emerged as a major American institution in the early 20th century. Movies became the most popular form of entertainment, with 80-90 million Americans attending weekly in lavish movie palaces resembling cathedrals. The development of narrative films and star system transformed cinema into a unifying national pastime. By the 1950s, cinema had evolved into a mature institution catering to changing audiences in the modern era.
The roots of working class representation in british
This document discusses the representation of the working class in British popular film and television from the 1960s onward. It notes that films from this era, like Room at the Top and Saturday Night and Sunday Morning, drew on existing tropes and stereotypes of northern working class life involving cobbled streets, terraced houses near factories. While the working class was previously marginalized, these "angry young man" films provided more realistic depictions that challenged norms. However, female and working class characters were often depicted negatively or stereotypically. Television shows like Coronation Street also drew from these film conventions but provided a more sympathetic portrayal of working class life.
A Brief History of the Peabody Awards
Keith Clinkscales, a dedicated media executive who has worked for companies that include ESPN and REVOLT Media, relies on his extensive experience in media to lead Shadow League Digital as founder and CEO. Over the course of his career, Keith Clinkscales has accumulated more than 40 credits as the executive producer of documentaries and films and is a two-time winner of the Peabody Award.
Given to filmmakers and journalists who share stories that impact all types of communities, the Peabody Awards trace their roots back to the late 1930s. At that time, the National Association of Broadcasters wanted to establish an award for prestigious radio shows due to the rising popularity of the media form.
As the award was being formulated, John Drewey, the dean of the Grady School of Journalism at the University of Georgia, was asked to be a sponsor of the awards. Drewey agreed, and his involvement prompted a committee to name the new accolade after George Foster Peabody, an investment banker and Georgia native who supported the University of Georgia.
With a name and sponsorship lined up, the first Peabody Awards were given in 1941 in recognition of radio programs released in 1940. The awards have since grown to recognize outstanding broadcasting in a wide range of media, including network, cable, and streaming programs. This continuing evolution of the awards resulted in the first website winner in 2003 and the first blog winner in 2012.
Britishness and Collective Identity
This document provides an overview of British cinema from the 1930s to 2000s. It begins by outlining the categories used to define British films from A to E based on factors like funding, personnel, and cultural content. It acknowledges that the British film industry has struggled due to the major influence and commercial success of Hollywood. However, it then lists examples of critically and commercially successful British films from each decade from the 1930s to 2000s and provides discussion questions and tasks for students to analyze two films from an assigned decade and the overall state of the British film industry during that time period. Useful websites for research are also listed.
Ciandwcrep
This document discusses the representation of the working class in British cinema and television from the 1950s to present day. It notes that historically, the working class were marginalized on screen but this changed with "kitchen sink" films of the 1960s that depicted working class life in a gritty, realistic manner. However, it also discusses how more popular films and television shows have portrayed the working class through stereotypical tropes and icons for mass market appeal. More recently, some critics argue that some reality television programs exploit and demonize the working class for entertainment purposes, though audience research also shows people interpret media in varied, complex ways.
What is Postmodernism? Postmodernism in video games.
Postmodernism refers to mixing old ideas with modern culture. In video games, postmodernism is shown through blurring fiction and reality boundaries, influences from other works, and lack of new ideas. The Call of Duty franchise exemplifies postmodernism with its hyperrealistic first-person shooter gameplay, incorporation of real weapons and military operations into fictional storylines, and rejection of a single overarching narrative through different game modes and sequels set in various time periods.

Metrosexual
The document discusses how media like the TV show "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy" and magazine Esquire help cultivate and promote the image of the metrosexual man through their portrayal of fashion, grooming, and consumer lifestyles. It analyzes how repeated exposure to these portrayals through media channels shapes audiences' perceptions of masculinity and gender identities according to cultivation theory. The case studies demonstrate how both visual and textual elements in media help normalize and sell an idealized lifestyle to audiences.
Task 1
This document provides guidance on researching and analyzing significant practitioners in one's field for a final major project (FMP). It instructs the reader to research at least three influential graphic designers, filmmakers, fashion designers, artists, photographers, authors or journalists.

The reader should include images and explore each practitioner in detail.
Hollywood vs national representations of Britishness
This document discusses Stuart Hall's encoding/decoding model of media reception theory. It explains that Hall extended the concept of an active audience by arguing that individuals receive and interpret media texts based on their own circumstances and perspectives. It notes that the encoding of a text by its producer may lead to very different decodings by audience members depending on factors like gender, class, age, and ethnicity. The document also contains learning objectives and questions related to analyzing the portrayal of Britishness in different films from Hollywood and the UK.
Identity and Film
The document discusses media representations of collective identities and how they have changed over time. It addresses how media currently portrays social groups, how these representations differ from historical depictions, and the effects of certain media portrayals on society. The document also mentions how people can use media to actively form collective identities and debates around whether identities are increasingly shaped by media.
Hobbfc
The BBFC was founded in 1912 by the film industry to apply consistent censorship standards across the UK. In 1984, the Video Recordings Act expanded the BBFC's role to classify videos. Throughout its history, the BBFC has adapted its guidelines and classification system in response to social changes and public feedback, introducing concepts like an "adults only" rating in the 1950s. Key figures like T.P. O'Connor and Arthur Watkins helped shape the BBFC's approach over the decades.
Is There Any Such Thing As Britishness
This document discusses different interpretations of British national identity over time and how it has become more diverse.

A new semiotics age
- Historically, contemporary art and media that will shape the future must accurately describe the times using empirical and realistic parameters through an innovative visual language. This new iconography should universally allow the observer to recognize reflections of past, present, and future mankind and their everyday lives.
- Communication strategies developed over 50 years ago and later with new technology are becoming obsolete and ineffective. The same goes for most contemporary art made for decoration, shock, or aesthetic pleasure - it will be forgotten and lose economic and artistic value.
- Only art that mirrors the true values and meanings of its time will stand the test of time.

Media History
Media Life is a course intended for undergraduate students across campus. Its goal is to make people aware of the role that media play in their everyday life. The key to understanding a "media life" is to see our lives not as lived WITH media (which would lead to a focus on media effects and media-centric theories of society), but rather IN media (where the distinction between what we do with and without media dissolves).
A Brief History Of The Media In The Usa
The media in the United States has gone through several changes throughout history. Early on, the press was seen as important for public discourse and debate. However, over time media became big business, with large companies owning most newspapers and radio/TV stations. Deregulation in the 1980s and 1990s led to even more media consolidation, with just a few huge corporations now controlling around 90% of the market. This raises questions about whether the needs of the public are still being served over pure profit.
American media
American media consists of television, radio, newspapers, magazines and websites. The first newspaper was published in 1690. In 1920, Westinghouse launched the first commercially licensed radio station. Television became commercialized in 1941. Major newspapers include the Washington Post and LA Times. Television networks like CNN, Fox and major radio stations influence public opinion. While freedom of speech is protected, the US government can impose reasonable restrictions and American media aims to shape international views in its favor through news coverage.
