Download or read book Retromania written by Simon Reynolds and published by Macmillan + ORM. This book was released on 2011-07-19 with total page 498 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of The Telegraph's Best Music Books 2011 We live in a pop age gone loco for retro and crazy for commemoration. Band re-formations and reunion tours, expanded reissues of classic albums and outtake-crammed box sets, remakes and sequels, tribute albums and mash-ups . . . But what happens when we run out of past? Are we heading toward a sort of culturalecological catastrophe where the archival stream of pop history has been exhausted? Simon Reynolds, one of the finest music writers of his generation, argues that we have indeed reached a tipping point, and that although earlier eras had their own obsessions with antiquity—the Renaissance with its admiration for Roman and Greek classicism, the Gothic movement's invocations of medievalism—never has there been a society so obsessed with the cultural artifacts of its own immediate past. Retromania is the first book to examine the retro industry and ask the question: Is this retromania a death knell for any originality and distinctiveness of our own?

Download or read book Art of the Cut written by Steve Hullfish and published by CRC Press. This book was released on 2024-07-18 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the second volume of the widely acclaimed Art of the Cut book published in 2017. This follow-up text expands on its predecessor with wisdom from more than 360 interviews with the world’s best editors (including nearly every Oscar winner from the last 30 years). Because editing is a highly subjective art form, and one that is critical to the success of motion picture storytelling, it requires side-by-side comparisons of the many techniques and solutions used by a wide range of editors from around the world. That is why this book compares and contrasts methodologies from a wide array of diverse voices and organizes that information so that it is easily digested and understood. There is no one way to approach editorial problems, so this book allows readers to see multiple solutions from multiple editors. The interviews contained within are carefully curated into topics that are most important to film editors and those who aspire to become film editors. The questions asked, and the organization of the book, are not merely an academic or theoretical view of the art of editing but rather the practical advice and methodologies of actual working film and TV editors, bringing benefits to both students and professional readers. The book is supplemented by a collection of downloadable online exclusive chapters, which cover additional topics ranging from Choosing the Project to VFX. In addition to the supplementary chapters, access to the full-color, full-resolution images printed in the book—and other exclusive images—is included.

Download or read book Rich Boy Cries for Momma written by Ethan H. Minsker and published by Minsker & Lee Productions. This book was released on 2012-12-01 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Set in Washington, D.C. during the turbulent 1980s, Rich Boy Cries for Momma is a coming of age novel told from the perspective of the good son turned teenage punk rocker. While the so-called nice kids of the Washington elite bully and reject the teenager because of his dyslexia, the punk rock scene accepts him as he is. This fast-paced story pulls us into the teenager’s dangerous and erratic new world filled with violence and drugs, yet funny and touching. A disparate cast of characters - from the rich, powerful and successful to the beaten, broken and besmirched - become entangled in the punk rock subculture. We follow alongside the somewhere-in-between teenager as he wades through his learning disability and relationships that sometimes betray his perceptions, sometimes break his heart and sometimes save his life. Minsker has arranged Rich Boy Cries for Momma chronologically, basing it on the life and experiences of the narrator as he journeys from adolescence into adulthood. The story follows the narrator as he ages from 11 to 20 years, his growth and education influenced by the events of his time and his perception of those events. Through the teenager's life experiences, the concepts of class and social status, good and evil, and the existence of a moral and social order are all examined, as the teen speculates upon his own personal beliefs and his place in the universe. Minsker uses a smooth linear narrative structure and a conversational writing style, with vivid characters, making the story fast-paced and highly readable. A biting, witty sense of humor entwines and overlays the serious, often tragic, events that unfold in the book. Rich Boy Cries for Momma features ink and paper drawings that capture the essence of DC in the 1980s. The book also contains the lyrics of more than two dozen songs of the hard-core punk rock bands of that era.
