Download or read book Hand Made Television written by R. Moseley and published by Springer. This book was released on 2016-04-29 with total page 143 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hand-Made Television explores the ongoing enchantment of many of the much-loved stop-frame children's television programmes of 1960s and 1970s Britain. The first academic work to analyse programmes such as Pogles' Wood (1966), Clangers (1969), Bagpuss (1974) (Smallfilms) and Gordon Murray's Camberwick Green (1966), Trumpton (1967) and Chigley (1969), the book connects these series to their social and historical contexts while providing in-depth analyses of their themes and hand-made aesthetics. Hand-Made Television shows that the appeal of these programmes is rooted not only in their participatory address and evocation of a pastoral English past, but also in the connection of their stop-frame aesthetics to the actions of childhood play. This book makes a significant contribution to both Animation Studies and Television Studies; combining scholarly rigour with an accessible style, it is suitable for scholars as well as fans of these iconic British children's programmes.

Download or read book Children Youth and International Television written by Debbie Olson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2022-03-29 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume explores how television has been a significant conduit for the public consumption of changing ideas about children, childhood, and national identity, via a critical examination of programs that prominently feature children and youth in international television. The chapters connect relevant cultural attitudes within their respective countries to an analysis of children and/or childhood in international children’s programming. The collection addresses how international children’s programming in global and local context informs changing ideas about children and childhood, including notions of individual and citizen identity formation. Offering new insights into childhood and television studies, this book will be of great interest to graduate students, scholars, and professionals in television studies, childhood studies, media studies, cultural studies, popular culture studies, and American studies.

Download or read book Popular Music And Television In Britain written by Ian Inglis and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-04-22 with total page 267 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Listening to popular music and watching television have become the two most common activities for postwar generations in Britain. From the experiences of programmes like Oh Boy! and Juke Box Jury, to the introduction of 24 hour music video channels, the number and variety of television outputs that consistently make use of popular music, and the importance of the small screen as a principal point of contact between audiences and performers are familiar components of contemporary media operation. Yet there have been few attempts to examine the two activities in tandem, to chart their parallel evolution, to explore the associations that unite them, or to consider the increasingly frequent ways in which the production and consumption of TV and music are linked in theory and in practice. This volume provides an invaluable critical analysis of these, and other, topics in newly-written contributions from some of Britain's leading scholars in the disciplines of television and/or popular music studies. Through a concentration on four main areas in which TV organises and presents popular music - history and heritage; performers and performances; comedy and drama; audiences and territories - the book investigates a diverse range of musical genres and styles, factual and fictional programming, historical and geographical demographics, and the constraints of commerce and technology to provide the first systematic account of the place of popular music on British television.

Download or read book Small Screens written by David Buckingham and published by Burns & Oates. This book was released on 2002 with total page 248 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Has childrens television been dumbed down? Is contemporary programming really as trivial, vacuous and repetitive--or indeed as subversive and anarchic--as some critics suggest? How does childrens television reflect broader changes both in broadcasting and in conceptions of childhood itself?Amid all the recent controversies surrounding childrens television, commentators have been too ready to condemn the anti-educational influence of Teletubbies, the dangerous sensuality of Live and Kicking, or the violence and vulgarity of American cartoons without ever taking a serious look at what they have to offer.Small Screens offers detailed coverage of childrens programming in the United States and Britain, considering the changing ways in which children have been defined, addressed and entertained by television. The authors explore the key genres, including cartoons, costume drama and advertising; they discuss significant and controversial programs including South Park, Teletubbies and Grange Hill; and they look at the experience of dedicated childrens channels and of TV-related websites.
