Download or read book Outside Hollywood written by Isaac Botkin and published by Vision Forum. This book was released on 2007-08-01 with total page 313 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Like the Berlin Wall, the seemingly impenetrable colossus of Hollywood, with its enslaving influence on American culture, will someday come crashing down. Thankfully, inexpensive technologies, independent distribution methods, and a rising tide of innovative, Christ-loving visionaries are evidence of unprecedented opportunities for Christians who are willing to "take every [frame] captive" through a presuppositionally biblical approach to making films outside the Hollywood leviathan. In this groundbreaking book, experienced filmographer and CGI artist Isaac Botkin prepares Christians for successful Christ-honoring leadership as writers, directors, and producers. Botkin has worked as both a Hollywood outsider and an insider (with one of the most famous production houses in the world). In Outside Hollywood, he smashes the myth of methodological and cultural neutrality and offers a paradigm for developing a family-friendly approach to this hugely important field of cultural influence. Readers will benefit from his insights on proper training and qualifications, courageous script writing, equipment, common mistakes of new filmmakers, and professional directing.
Book Synopsis Movie-Made Appalachia by : John C. Inscoe
Download or read book Movie-Made Appalachia written by John C. Inscoe and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2020-11-24 with total page 249 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While Hollywood deserves its reputation for much-maligned portrayals of southern highlanders on screen, the film industry also deserves credit for a long-standing tradition of more serious and meaningful depictions of Appalachia's people. Surveying some two dozen films and the literary and historical sources from which they were adapted, John C. Inscoe argues that in the American imagination Appalachia has long represented far more than deprived and depraved hillbillies. Rather, the films he highlights serve as effective conduits into the region's past, some grounded firmly in documented realities and life stories, others only loosely so. In either case, they deserve more credit than they have received for creating sympathetic and often complex characters who interact within families, households, and communities amidst a wide array of historical contingencies. They provide credible and informative narratives that respect the specifics of the times and places in which they are set. Having used many of these movies as teaching tools in college classrooms, Inscoe demonstrates the cumulative effect of analyzing them in terms of shared themes and topics to convey far more generous insights into Appalachia and its history than one would have expected to emerge from southern California's "dream factory."
Book Synopsis The Man Who Seduced Hollywood by : B. James Gladstone
Download or read book The Man Who Seduced Hollywood written by B. James Gladstone and published by Chicago Review Press. This book was released on 2013-05-01 with total page 380 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Hollywood history, no other lawyer has achieved the movie star–like fame and glamour that Greg Bautzer enjoyed. This revealing biography tells, for the first time, the amazing story of a self-made man who for 50 years used his irresistible charm and prodigious legal talent to dominate the courtrooms, boardrooms, and bedrooms of Hollywood. Columnists of the 1930s through 1950s dubbed him “Hollywood Bachelor Number One,” and for good reason. His long-term relationships and momentary conquests were a who’s who of leading ladies. Through exclusive interviews with those who knew him best, the book uncovers the inner workings of not only Bautzer the high-powered Hollywood lawyer—whose clients included billionaire Howard Hughes—but Bautzer the man.

Book Synopsis Leisure and Tourism Landscapes by : Cara Aitchison
Download or read book Leisure and Tourism Landscapes written by Cara Aitchison and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-05-01 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Increasingly significant as mediators of spatial identity and meaning, leisure, tourism, culture and heritage are only now beginning to be located within the rapidly evolving discourses of poststructuralist geographies. Exploring the influence of leisure and tourism on the production, representation and consumption of landscape, the first half of this important book focuses on different ways of ‘seeing’ or representing landscape, whereas the second half examines different forms of productive consumption in leisure and tourism. Both symbolic and material spaces of leisure and tourism are also examined in relation to urban and rural landscapes, heritage landscapes, gendered landscapes, and landscapes of sexuality and desire. With a multidisciplinary approach and a strong theoretical content which builds on poststructuralist theories, this is undoubtedly an important addition to literature in the field.
Book Synopsis Just Remember This by : Colin Bratkovich
Download or read book Just Remember This written by Colin Bratkovich and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-05-08 with total page 938 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I have completed this manuscript Just Remember This, or as American Pop Singers 1900-1950+, about music before the 1950s in America. It perhaps offers knowledge and insights not previously found in other musical reference books. I have moreover been working on this book very meticulously over the past twelve-plus years. It started as a bit of fun and gradually became serious as I began to listen along with the vocalists of popular music, of the era before 1950, essentially just before the dawn of rock and roll. If you can call it that! Indeed genre and labeling of American music started here, and then from everywhere. While the old adage of always starting from somewhere could be noted in every century, the 1900s had produced the technology. Understanding the necessity, more so, finds a curiosity on the part of a general public hungry for entertainment, despite 6 day work weeks, World War I, the Great Depression, and World War II.
