This book was released on 2007 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For over 10 years the European Community has strived to develop suitable and proportionate answers to the phenomenon of convergence in its audiovisual regulatory policy. This article outlines the regulatory process at an EU level since the early 1980s as far as media, telecommunications and Information Society services are concerned, and analyses some of the most relevant policy papers specifically related to the adoption of the EC legal framework for the media in the digital age, before focusing on the preparatory phase leading up to the adoption of the Commission proposal for a Directive on Audiovisual Media Services, issued in December 2005. In addition, the core of this proposal for a revised Television without Frontiers Directive, i.e. the extension of its scope to cover new media services provided in a non-linear manner and the introduction of a graduated regime of regulation with a lighter-touch approach in view of such services, is presented along with the main lines of debate among stakeholders.

Download or read book European Audiovisual Policy in Transition written by Heritiana Ranaivoson and published by Taylor & Francis. This book was released on 2023-05-31 with total page 291 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book describes and critically addresses the innovations and shifts made in the revision of the Audiovisual Media Services Directive (AVMSD) adopted by the European Parliament and Council in 2018. Reflecting on European Union regulation and policy practice in all its Member States, the book’s unique approach places in-depth case study topics against the broader theoretical background. Taking a Europe-wide angle, an international team of authors focuses on key aspects of the AVMSD: the expansion of its scope to include video-sharing-platforms such as YouTube; the update of the rules for commercial communications; the first attempt for harmonized, minimal requirements at EU level regarding transparency of media ownership; new rules to ensure that video-on-demand services offer, invest in, and prioritise European content; the obligation on television distributors and smart TV manufacturers to pass on broadcasters’ signal without any interference, alteration or modification; and, the formalisation and consolidation of new forms of collaboration among national regulatory authorities. This thorough analysis of the cornerstone of European media policy makes this edited collection a crucial reference for scholars and students of media and cultural industries, media law and policy, European and EU media policy, and technology studies.
Download or read book Study on the Implementation of the New Provisions in the Revised Audiovisual Media Services Directive AVMSD written by and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Audiovisual Media Services Directive (AVMSD), which provided a legal framework for traditional TV broadcasts and on-demand services, was revised in November 2018 in order to align with new developments in audiovisual technologies and on audiovisual markets. To facilitate the implementation of the AVMSD, this study looks at regulatory and business practices relating to three topics included for the first time in the EU media framework: video-sharing platforms (VSPs), media ownership and transparency, and signal integrity. Concerning VSPs, the study looks at the extent to which VSPs can and do take measures to protect minors and the public, as envisaged by the AVMSD. It also looks at developments in implementation at Member State level and the transnational dimension. The media ownership and transparency part explores approaches across the EU to constraining media concentration and promoting transparency, the extent to which current rules are sufficient and enforced, the related best practices, and whether action should be taken at EU or national level. The signal integrity part discusses the prevalence of problems with signal integrity and the conditions that need to be met for the successful implementation of the Directive.
Download or read book The EU Audiovisual Media Services Directive written by Mark D. Cole and published by . This book was released on 2020 with total page 1008 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The European audiovisual industry is one of the most dynamic markets in the European Union. The Audiovisual Media Services Directive is the bedrock of the EU's audiovisual and media policies. It regulates diverse aspects for providers of television broadcasting and on-demand services and entered into force in December 2007. Due to the volatility of a market facing convergence of media and important policy choices, for instance whether to allow product placement, Member States have struggled with the transposition of this Directive. This completely new commentary employs an innovative approach: Based on English translations, the study systematically examines the national implementing measures of the future 28 Member States (including Croatia). It sets out, article-by-article, the original provisions contained in the Directive before analysing domestic transpositions. National measures are grouped in order to reveal similarities and differences and examined for compliance with the Directive. This comparative perspective contributes to the discussions on reforms of the Directive or the EU's approach to new media services."--
Download or read book Audiovisual Media Services Without Frontiers written by European Audiovisual Observatory and published by Council of Europe. This book was released on 2006 with total page 88 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The current ongoing revision of the EC's Television without Frontiers (TVwF) Directive clearly raises major questions for the future of the regulation of linear and non-linear services. However, it also gives rise to reflection concerning the Council of Europe's European Convention on Transfrontier Television (ECTT), a parallel regulatory instrument concerning cross-border broadcasting. At a time of major transformation of the European legal instruments which are applied to broadcasting and new audiovisual services, this new report from the European Audiovisual Observatory takes stock of recent and current problem areas in broadcasting regulation in the light of the challenges these will raise for the new extended regulation. The report analyses issues of the practical application of the TVwF Directive and the ECTT in their current form. It also raises the question of the future cohabitation of the two instruments following the completed revision of the TVwF Directive, not forgetting that there will clearly be a period where the two instruments will be "out of phase" with each other.
Download or read book The New Audiovisual Media Services Directive written by Mira Burri and published by . This book was released on 2010 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After long deliberations, the European Community (EC) has completed the reform of its audiovisual media regulation. The paper examines the main tenets of this reform with particular focus on its implications for the diversity of cultural expressions in the European media landscape. It also takes into account the changed patterns of consumer and business behaviour due to the advances in digital media and their wider spread in society. The paper criticises the somewhat unimaginative approach of the EC to new media and the political (and at times protectionist) considerations behind some of the Directive's provisions.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The study provides the European Commission (Directorate General for Communications Networks, Content & Technology) with the tools and information required for the monitoring and evaluation of the impact of Union and national level measures for the promotion, distribution and production of European works and independent productions in television programmes and the production of and access to European works in on-demand services. The study updates a 2011 report by capturing changes in the legislative and economic audiovisual landscape between 2011 and 2016. Furthermore, the study brings together the data collected from Member States fulfilling their reporting obligation on the application of Article 13 of the AVMS Directive for the period 2011-2014, and on the application of Articles 16 and 17 of the AVMS Directive for the period 2013-2014. The study covers the legislative measures which have been adopted by Member States in respect of linear broadcasting and on-demand audiovisual media services examining the methods and periodicity for the collection of data by competent authorities in order to monitor the application of the Art. 13, 16 & 17 of the AVMS Directive. It provides examples of methods to ensure the prominence of European works in on-demand service catalogues and evidence of correlation between prominent works and audience demand. The study includes a description and analysis of the market for audiovisual works in the European Union, analysing the production and the distribution side in terms of number of businesses, employment and potential drivers of change. It also includes an analysis of the content offer on both linear broadcasting and on-demand services. For the year 2016, the study analyses the content broadcast by 54 channels in 11 Member States and the catalogues of 50 non-linear service providers in 6 Member States. Finally, the study provides a set of performance indicators in view of carrying out future monitoring and assessment activities at periodical intervals and it assesses how the performance indicators and operational procedures shall evolve in the context of the new AVMSD legislative proposal adopted by the European Commission on 25 May 2016.
Download or read book Media Freedom and Pluralism written by Beata Klimkiewicz and published by Central European University Press. This book was released on 2010-05-10 with total page 364 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Addresses a critical analysis of major media policies in the European Union and Council of Europe at the period of profound changes affecting both media environments and use, as well as the logic of media policy-making and reconfiguration of traditional regulatory models. The analytical problem-related approach seems to better reflect a media policy process as an interrelated part of European integration, formation of European citizenship, and exercise of communication rights within the European communicative space. The question of normative expectations is to be compared in this case with media policy rationales, mechanisms of implementation (transposing rules from EU to national levels), and outcomes.

This book was released on 2020-12 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With its comparative analysis of approaches taken in the context of the COVID-19 crisis, this IRIS Plus helps the reader understand the diversity of approaches, interests, and measures taken across the film and audiovisual sector, and the diversity of the bodies taking them.It is June 2020, and the European audiovisual sector is barely emerging from the COVID-19 crisis; although a full assessment of the short- and long-term effects of this crisis remains premature, a first set of observations can nevertheless be made. The immediate effects of the crisis have been diverse and have affected almost all the main branches of the audiovisual sector, ranging from the interruption of ongoing production projects to the shutdown of cinemas. Many emergency measures have been taken to deal with these immediate effects, but some of them, by their very nature, such as measures offering loans, are likely to be limited to deferring the impact.
