Book The Shuberts and Their Passing Shows

Download or read book The Shuberts and Their Passing Shows written by Jonas Westover and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-10-04 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Shubert name has been synonymous with Broadway for almost as long as Broadway entertainment itself. With seventeen Broadway theatres including the Ambassador, the Music Box, and the Winter Garden, The Shubert Organization perpetuates brothers Lee and Jacob Shubert's business legacy. In The Shuberts and Their Passing Shows: The Untold Tale of Ziegfeld's Rivals, author Jonas Westover investigates beyond the Shuberts' business empire into their early revues and the centrifugal role they played in developing American theatre as an art form. The Shubert-produced revues, titled Passing Shows, were terrifically popular in the teens and twenties, consistently competing with Florenz Ziegfeld's Follies for the greatest numbers of stars, biggest spectacles, and ultimately the largest audiences. The Shuberts and Their Passing Shows is the first-ever book to unpack the colorful history of the productions, delving into their stars, costumes, stagecraft, and orchestration in unprecedented detail. Providing a fresh and exciting window into American theatrical history, Westover traces the fascinating history of the Shuberts' revue series, presented annually from 1912-1924, and covers more broadly the glorious days of early Broadway. In addition to its compelling history of Broadway's Golden Age, The Shuberts and Their Passing Shows also provides a revisionary argument about the overarching history of the revue. Bolstered by a rich collection of documents in the Shubert Theater Archive, Westover argues against the popular misconception that the Shubert's competitor, producer Florenz Ziegfield - responsible for the better-known Follies - was the sole proprietor of Broadway audiences. As Westover proves, not only were the Passing Shows as popular as the Follies but also a key component in a history of the revue that is vastly more complex than previous scholarship has shown. The Shuberts and Their Passing Shows brings to fruition years of original research and invaluable insights into the gilded formation of present day Broadway.

Download or read book The Secret Explained written by Cristian Butnariu and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2014-09-10 with total page 462 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: NLP stands for Neuro-Linguistic Programming, a name that encompasses the three most influential components involved in producing human experience: neurology, language and programming. The neurological system regulates how our bodies function, language determines how we interface and communicate with other people and our programming determines the kinds of models of the world we create. Neuro-Linguistic Programming describes the fundamental dynamics between mind (neuro) and language (linguistic) and how their interplay affects our body and behavior (programming). NLP is a pragmatic school of thought - an 'epistemology' - that addresses the many levels involved in being human. NLP is a multi-dimensional process that involves the development of behavioral competence and flexibility, but also involves strategic thinking and an understanding of the mental and cognitive processes behind behavior. NLP provides tools and skills for the development of ...

  • Release : 2014-06-10
  • ISBN : 9780692237816
  • Pages : 122 pages

Download or read book How to Make a Movie written by Sumner Jules Glimcher and published by Westminster Productions, Incorporated. This book was released on 2014-06-10 with total page 122 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is meant to be a primer for all, from the first time filmmaker to the advanced professional. The concept is to teach by example. I have made some three-dozen films in every genre imaginable, which have won dozens of awards. For this book, my plan was to write some twenty chapters, each about a specific work, and then describe one unique aspect of that film. After writing about that aspect (music, montage, aerial photography, narration, etc.) I then embedded an excerpt from that film (or in two cases the entire film) so that the reader may click on the image on his/her iPAD, and watch how that situation was resolved. Presumably reading of the problem and then seeing its resolution might inspire readers how to find their own solutions in the work I have spent about one third of my career, some twenty years, in teaching at Harvard, my alma mater, Columbia University for ten years, and NYU for eight, where I was the Director of the "Department of Film, Video and Broadcasting" at NYU's School of Continuing Education. At the latter position, I was largely responsible for creating the finest film program on the East Coast. With this background, I believed I have developed some insights in the learning process. When students ask, "What is the most important rule to follow in making a film," I answer, "Enjoy every minute of what you are doing."

Book The Secret Sauce For Placing Your Music In Television   Film

Download or read book The Secret Sauce For Placing Your Music In Television Film written by Marc Fantano and published by Marc Fantano. This book was released on 2019-03-23 with total page 55 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How do I place my music in television & film? Chances are if you landed on this page, you’re an independent artist or band that's asking themselves that very question. However, the better question to be asking is, “How can I place my music in television & film and still have time to focus on making new music?” This book reveals a strategic method to obtain the contact information of music supervisors and turn it into an automated machine that will find you their latest projects. Once setup, the system alerts you when it's the optimal time to contact them! The best part is this can all be done entirely by yourself. In this streaming era (Netflix, Amazon Video, Hulu, etc.) where there is more content than ever being produced, sync licensing can be a massive revenue stream and independent musicians are in demand more than ever! To put this into a better context, a $5,000 sync license for a single song will earn more revenue than over one million streams of a hit song on Spotify. Are you ready to get started now?

Book Secret Cinema and the immersive experience industry

Download or read book Secret Cinema and the immersive experience industry written by Sarah Atkinson and published by Manchester University Press. This book was released on 2022-12-06 with total page 212 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book presents a comprehensive history and analysis of Secret Cinema – the leading producer of large-scale immersive experiences in the UK. It examines how the company has evolved over twelve years from an experimental and artisanal organisation to a global leader in the field. The book focuses on the UK in late-2019, a point at which the immersive sector had grown significantly through its increasing contribution to GDP and its widespread recognition as a legitimate cultural offering. It captures an organisation and a sector transitioning from marginal and subcultural roots to a commodifiable and commercial form, now with recognisable professional roles and practices, which has contributed to the establishment of an immersive experience industry of national importance and global reach.

Book How Toddlers Learn the Secret Language of Movies

Download or read book How Toddlers Learn the Secret Language of Movies written by Cary Bazalgette and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-05-18 with total page 234 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book takes a radically new approach to the well-worn topic of children's relationship with the media, avoiding the "risks and benefits" paradigm while examining very young children's interactions with film and television. Bazalgette proposes a refocus on the learning processes that children must go through in order to understand what they are watching on televisions, phones, or iPads. To demonstrate this, she offers unique insight from research done with her twin grandchildren starting from just before they were two years old, with analysis drawn from the field of embodied cognition to help identify minute behaviours and expressions as signals of emotions and thought processes. The book makes the case that all inquiry into early childhood movie-viewing should be based on the premise that learning–usually self-driven–is taking place throughout.
