Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Al and Thelma's interest in cameras began in the 1920's with the kinetescope. Al Morton took an interest in Thelma as well as the idea of moving pictures, partly because Thelma played the organ while black and white movies rolled by. She could adjust the sound to what was on screen; fast, slow or frantic. Color film had not yet been invented. After their marriage they owned several types of cameras. Celluloid film had not yet found a predictable width or spacing of sprockets. With Bell and Howell 8 mm camera in hand (1938), they began to make movies with plots plus a makeshift way to have sound. Some movies were strictly hers, most were his, but they were a team in anything they created. Al invented and patented gadgets to make filming easier: a remote control, an editor with two spools, a waterproof cover for the camera, a title board, portable two record turntable and a way to attach cameras to give his scenes a sense of driving. Thelma was responsible for sound, the remote control and help with narration. She also developed many plots and they wrote them out scene by scene. Al started his first movie club called The Amateur Cinema League, composed of friends and neighbors. Then he began to write regular articles for movie magazines, illustrated by using his new Speed Graphic. From that day on Thelma was in charge of the enlarger and print room they built together. In 1939 he began a large movie club called the Utah Cine Arts Club to attract a larger group of people and a different judging system. The rules, constitution and logo were his design. In the meantime, Thelma had changed how she used the enlarger, turning it on its side, shooting through an open doorway to expose a mural size photo. When these were well rinsed and dried, she laid them out and tinted them with Marshall paints and a cue tip. She learned to cut mats and frame this work. These large prints of Utah's unseen beauty were purchased by Union Pacific, Sears, the state capital, Insurance Companies, the Hotel Utah and other large businesses which were interested in publicizing Utah as a tourist destination. Following a plan by FDR to create a new National Park in the Four Corner's area, Al and Thelma Morton set out to film scenery unknown to most Utahan's or others. When they had filmed areas like Bryce, Zion, Dead Horse Point, Arches and The Green River area, Al Morton joined up with Harris and Brennan River Expeditions to popularize Utah's scenic river ways - in wooden boats like Major Powell's. All of Alton's movies went from national acclaim to the halls of Washington DC. Now John and Robert Kennedy wanted to create at least one national park which Al Morton called Corner Country. The result was new National Parks: Arches, Canyonlands and Grand Staircase National Monument and many designated Recreation Areas. Alton Morton joined an expedition into Mexico, planned by Cross Tours. Poorly planned, the group ran out of food and water within a few days, they were rescued by Tarahumara Indians. The result for Al Morton was a fatal fungal infection. When he died in 1985 he and Thelma had been making movies together for almost 60 years. Born in the 1905 his acceptance of women in a polling booth or in a "man's job" allowed an incredible amount of freedom for his wife and four daughters. I have been surprised to realize how much of his philosophy advanced the cause of women's rights.

Download or read book Games written by C. Thi Nguyen and published by Oxford University Press, USA. This book was released on 2020 with total page 253 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Games are a unique art form. The game designer doesn't just create a world; they create who you will be in that world. They tell you what abilities to use and what goals to take on. In other words, they specify a form of agency. Games work in the medium of agency. And to play them, we take on alternate agencies and submerge ourselves in them. What can we learn about our own rationality and agency, from thinking about games? We learn that we have a considerable degree of fluidity with our agency. First, we have the capacity for a peculiar sort of motivational inversion. For some of us, winning is not the point. We take on an interest in winning temporarily, so that we can play the game. Thus, we are capable of taking on temporary and disposable ends. We can submerge ourselves in alternate agencies, letting them dominate our consciousness, and then dropping them the moment the game is over. Games are, then, a way of recording forms of agency, of encoding them in artifacts. Our games are a library of agencies. And exploring that library can help us develop our own agency and autonomy. But this technology can also be used for art. Games can sculpt our practical activity, for the sake of the beauty of our own actions. Games are part of a crucial, but overlooked category of art - the process arts. These are the arts which evoke an activity, and then ask you to appreciate your own activity. And games are a special place where we can foster beautiful experiences of our own activity. Because our struggles, in games, can be designed to fit our capacities. Games can present a harmonious world, where our abilities fit the task, and where we pursue obvious goals and act under clear values. Games are a kind of existential balm against the difficult and exhausting value clarity of the world. But this presents a special danger. Games can be a fantasy of value clarity. And when that fantasy leaks out into the world, we can be tempted to oversimplify our enduring values. Then, the pleasures of games can seduce us away from our autonomy, and reduce our agency."--

Download or read book The End of the World written by Don Hertzfeldt and published by Random House. This book was released on 2019-10-01 with total page 226 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the imagination of legendary animator and two-time Oscar nominee Don Hertzfeldt comes a hilarious fever-dream vision of the apocalypse, now available in wide release for the first time since the rare original edition sold out. Created during sleepless nights while he worked on his animated films, The End of the World was illustrated entirely on Post-It notes over the course of several years, slowly taking shape from all the deleted scenes, bad dreams, and abandoned ideas that were too strange to make it to the big screen, including essential early material that was later developed into the animated classic World of Tomorrow. Hertzfeldt's visually striking work transcends its unusual nature and taps into the deeply human, universal themes of mortality, identity, memory, loss, and parenthood . . . with the occasional monstrous biting eel descending from the sky.

Download or read book Silent Players written by Anthony Slide and published by University Press of Kentucky. This book was released on 2002-09-27 with total page 461 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: " From his unique perspective of friendship with many of the actors and actresses about whom he writes, silent film historian Anthony Slide creates vivid portraits of the careers and often eccentric lives of 100 players from the American silent film industry. He profiles the era’s shining stars such as Lillian Gish and Blanche Sweet; leading men including William Bakewell and Robert Harron; gifted leading ladies such as Laura La Plante and Alice Terry; ingénues like Mary Astor and Mary Brian; and even Hollywood’s most famous extra, Bess Flowers. Although each original essay is accompanied by significant documentation and an extensive bibliography, Silent Players is not simply a reference book or encyclopedic recitation of facts culled from the pages of fan magazines and trade periodicals. It contains a series of insightful portraits of the characters who symbolize an original and pioneering era in motion history and explores their unique talents and extraordinary private lives. Slide offers a potentially revisionist view of many of the stars he profiles, repudiating the status of some and restoring to fame others who have slipped from view. He personally interviewed many of his subjects and knew several of them intimately, putting him in a distinctive position to tell their true stories.
