SOME INTERESTING INFORMATION ABOUT THE AUSTRALIAN FILM INDUSTRY
ACMI
The Australian film industry commenced in 1896 with a newsreel film of the Melbourne Cup.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bL6LHnMmT4g
Soldiers of the Cross 1900 presented by the Salvation Army comprising of a mixture of slides and film and considered to be the first religious film and first propaganda film ever made for the discussion of ideas and values.
Australian legislation in 1927 provided an Empire Quota for Victorian exhibitors even though this often meant daytime screenings only or screening the films before or after the advertised programmes times.
The difficulties that the American film contract system of ‘block’ and ‘bind’ booking presented for film producers led to the instigation of a Royal Commission in 1927 by the Australian Government. This included pressure from the British.
New South Wales called an Inquiry to investigate the film industry in 1934 principally for the problems of distribution resulting in a New South Wales Quota for Australian films of 5%. Unable to meet the quota it was amended to 3% and finally phased out completely in 1937.

SCREEN STUDIES
Mise-en-Scène
Mise-en-Scène translates to ‘placing-in-the-scene’ and being interpreted to cover the arrangement of everything that appears in the framing and that takes place on the set.
The importances of the content when making choices with sets, lights, costume, makeup, props, décor, sound, hair styles, film stock, aspect ratio, performance, aspects of camera and movement to create the mood and ambiance of a film contributes to the range of emotional, subjective, psychological, engrossing and engaging experiences.
It is not only about montage, it is an aspect of cinematic storytelling, narrative information conveyed by building various shots, creating sequences and scenes that are modified to create the film. There is the aesthetics of the shots, the stylistic arranged elements being part of the context that is composed with width, depth, space, time and reality to capture the audience, giving meaning to the film and developing the story.
Mise-en-Scène is about the tools that gives the film life, allowing the viewer to participate in the reality created by the shots and the relationship between the shots.

My Impressions of Two Contrasting Editing Styles
In contrast there are many long takes in ‘The Shinning’ which strongly contributes to the eerie, unsettling and terrifying emotions created in this horror film.
These prolonged shots leave the audience wondering where is the story going and what is going to happen. There is no quick distraction, the slow editing to the next shot or action creates suspense setting the audience up and building the tension.
Deconstruct a Shot
The area defined in this shot gives a sense of distance going back to the three soldiers while conflicting the viewer with the flat area cutting across the shot behind the characters. The viewer’s eyes want to go from the Doctor in the front, left to beyond the soldiers, right and the wall stops the eye bringing it coming back to the emotional face of the doctor and the cycle continues without settling.
The hard edged light behind the Doctor’s head and the shape of the light shadow behind the soldiers highlights their position in the environment. There is the strong, vertical building line between them confirming the conflicting relationship and the distance created between them.
The simple and harsh, vertical and horizontal lines of the building’s structures are part of the emotion created in the scene. Colour adds to the mise-en-scène, the shades of blue combined with the rain and mud leave a cold and miserable feeling.
‘….a film can manipulate space to communicate information or convey a feeling.”
Dick, Bernard F. “Anatomy of Film.” In Anatomy of Film, p 49, Boston, Mass.: Bedford St. Martins, 2005.
Sound Assisting the Narrative in Film
How Can Sound Assist the Narrative in Film?
The sound in film assists the narrative by shaping the viewers perception of the story and being a subliminal driving focus of the film.
In the opening sequence of ‘The Other Son’ the exchange of music and strong location effects introduces and establishes the mood of the film. The on and off screen paper stamping sounds in the background during the medical examination has an unconscious influences on the atmosphere in this scene.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bYLEcrcFJAc
In the shower scene from “Psycho” the sound makes it impossible for the viewer not to become emotionally involved in the characters actions. The sharp contrast between the musical sounds and the focus on particular sound effects together with the exaggerated film shots work to build the emotional tension.
The sounds which include foley, ambience, effects and music or lack of, give life to the vision and manipulate audiences. This includes telling them how to feel while evoking feelings, creating moods, influencing the pace, making changes in time, establishing locations, drawing attention to details and making connections between characters, places, images and moments to suggest a few.
Basic Structure of a Story
THELMA and LOUISE
ACT ONE – setup, the trip
The scene is set with the girls preparing to get away for a week-end get away having some freedom away from the routine of their lives. Thelma is married with an abusive husband and Louise is a waitress both bored with their lives, they want change, time away from their tedious lives. Thelmaʼs relationship is not very comfortable and she leaves without letting her husband know and for some reason packs the gun.
They leave and disaster happens when they stop to have some fun at a bar/club on their way. Thelma gets into trouble when a guy she meet at the club gets aggressive in the car park. Louise appears with the gun and shoots Harlam. Now they have to figure out what to do and unknown to them the police have become involved. Louise phones Jimmy for money as they have none and they decide to go on the run.
ACT TWO – confrontation, the runaway
They discuss running away as they figure no one saw them. They have a chance of escaping with the possibility of going to Mexico but not through Texas and need go via Oklahoma to pick up the money.
They pick up DJ after some initial reluctance. Jimmy arrives with the money and proposes to Louise. DJ makes his way back to Thelmaʼs room while Louise and Jimmy are catching up. When Thelma meets up with Louise, Louise realises the money will be gone. When the go and check the money is gone.
This leads to Thelma robbing the store and when the police see the security video they are building up more and more information on what they are doing. The men are wondering about what is going on.
Thelma and Louise phone the boys and work out they know and the police are there. Louise asks to speak to the police and finds out they know about them going to Texas. They are becoming fugitives.
They drive towards Mexico and pass a sexist truck driver who Thelma finally ignores. A policeman pulls them over, possible speeding and Thelma shoots the car radio and puts
the policeman in the boot of the car. Louise calls Hal, the police and they are being charged with murder. They are not giving
up, not making any deals – dead or alive. Their fate has been sealed.
ACT THREE – resolution, the escape
They see the macho truck driver again and ask for an apology, when he does not give it to them they shoot the truck tyres and the truck explodes.
A stoned bicycle rider finds the policeman in the boot of the car and the police helicopters are closing in. There hare lots of police cars chasing them, they are out numbered. They go off the road and temporarily lose them under the bridge and pull up close to the edge of a cliff. The police continue to close in until Thelma and Louise can choose, surrender, fight or keep going. They are not giving up and they drive off the cliff.
Ingredients of a Story
What are the essential ingredients of stories. SCHOOL of ROCK is a
musical comedy, a fell good movie when you leave the cinema and the power of music. Dewey Finn : Protagonist Antagonist : ’ can be a threat of obstacle to the main character’ from Wikipedia I was thinking this could be society represented by the teacher, parents, flat mates/friend
Characters
Dewey : On the surface he is a fraud and ill-equipped to be a teacher. The film shows how his role effects the students and they gain confidence and self-esteem. He is a slob rocker, self-absorbed, passionate and incapable of complying with any authority. Being motivate by the need for money, only knowing rock he is not concerned about the interest of the kids. Later it unfolds that he cares for the kids or does he? Is he only interested in rock success thus manipulating his students to follow his interests.
All the kids are includes and if they are not happy with their roll he works it out eg Summers from groupie to manager, Billy from security to band stylist. Tomika from security to singer and Dewey shares his eating habits with her also supports her when she lacks confidence before the concert.
Ms Mullins : the uptight principal Repressed school kids
Summers : determined to please and succeed
Zac : shy with large and overbearing father and uses music to show him other responses ‘step off’
Freddy : rebel, troublemaker drummer and provides the vehicle for Dewey to prove that he cares for the kids
Lawrence : keyboardist, transformed to a rockin’ keyboardist
Tomika : body issues. Does not want to be a security detail or roadie and is a singer. Also needs support before the concert.
Billy : security to band stylists Gordon : roadie to computer lighting the show
Confilct
Is shown from the social side between conservative and band lifestyles. And in the characters by not fitting in, not succeeding in the traditional ways and society expectations. to the desire to succeed in socially acceptable ways and how the story unfold between the two. Dewey goes from being only interested in himself to being concerned about the kids.Including them all in the project to changing their roles, protecting Freddy, playing the kids song at the concert. The kids and his friend change as well as the principle and the parents at the end.
Resolution
With the success of the band and the development of the relationship between Dewey and the kids the parents and principle see the value and talents of the children and there is room for it all.
The children find themselves and what they can do. Dewey finds success and his place in the world.
Ethics
Paying your way, socially acceptable behavior, body issue of being fat, bullying.
World (rules)
Dewey is scruffily dressed and slept in a mess on the sofa, the school environment is neat and tidy, Dewey takes the principle to his pub for coffee and she is uncomfortable, Freddy rolled up his shirt sleeves.
Theme
almost famous, rebellious attitude, norms and deviance, piety and blasphemy, right and wrong.
Environment
fictional school
Beginning : Dewey is a slob rocker who is self-absorbed, problems with authority and not capable of taking responsibility. He is at the end of the line.
Middle : He finds a job teaching kids continuing in his devious ways. He finds out the kids have musical talent and they form a bond. Dewey and the kids learn from each other and their journey makes this part of the story.
End : Dewey gets exposed when the paycheck arrives for Ned. Following this the he is asked questions at the parents evening about what has been going on. His real identity is revealed and he is fired from the school. The next morning the kids come looking for him and push him and they all head to the ‘Battle of the Bands’.

INDIAN CINEMA
ARDESHIR IRANI The Father of India’s Cinema and Talkies
‘Raja Harishchandra’, India’s first feature film screened in Mumbai, 1913 during the silent era spanning about two decades, including hidden instrument players and a narrator.
Hollywood talkies were already being screened in India for the Britishers, Indian elite and educated urbanites.
The Imperial Film Company won the day releasing India’s first Hindustani talkie feature film, ‘Alam Ara’ (Light of the World) at Mumbai’s Majestic Cinema, 14th March, 1931 becoming the first film where actors naturally spoke their lines instead of using dialogue cards. Produced by Ardeshir Irani, the father of Indian talkies.
The second talkie released was Krishna film Company’s ‘Ghar Ki Lakshmi’ and the third Madan Theaters’ ‘Shirin farbad’ with Imperial’s second talkie, ‘Daulat Ka Nasha’.
Ardeshir Irani made India’s first talkie in English ‘Noorjahan’ 1932 and India’s first Persian film ‘Dukutar-e-Noor’ 1933 calling musicians from Iran. Following this Irani made two more films in the same language ‘Firdousi’ and ‘Shirin Farbad’.
India’s first colour laboratory was set up by Irani and he produced India’s first colour picture ‘Kisan Kanya’ 1937 becoming the grand old man of Indian cinema and the father of the Indian talkie.
