The double BAFTA Cymru winning Welsh actor Eve Myles was born to a Scottish father and a Welsh mother and grew up in Powys.Choosing three films from the video shop on a Saturday and watching them on repeat all week is how young Eve fell in love with the possibilities and escapism of acting. Her compelling role in Keeping Faith saw her not only having to learn Welsh, act alongside her real-life husband, but most importantly it inspired a trend for bright yellow waterproof coats. Her latest drama, The Crow Girl, is executive produced by Slash, but there's no Guns N' Roses in her Inheritance Tracks then.Inherited: Pearl's a Singer by Elkie Brooks Passed on: Faith's Song by Amy WadgeProducers: Ben Mitchell and Catherine Powell

Antonello Zanda"Premio Ostana"Premio OstanaVenerdì 28 giugno 2024, ore 20:45Cinema, tv e nuovi media: l'esperienza galleseConversazione con Roger WilliamsPremio cinemaA cura di: Antonello Zandalingua galleseIl “Premio Ostana: scritture in lingua madre” è un appuntamento con le lingue madri del mondo che ogni anno riunisce a Ostana, paese occitano di 85 abitanti in Valle Po ai piedi del Monviso, autori di lingua madre da tutto il mondo, per un festival della biodiversità linguistica.Roger Williams was an executive of the Writer's Guild Of Great Britain and lives in Wales; he is an award-winning writer and producer working in both Welsh and English. He wrote and produced the Welsh-language feature films Y Sŵn (2023) and Gwledd (2021). “Y Sŵn” won the BAFTA Cymru award for best feature film in 2023 and received a nomination for the Broadcast and Celtic Media Festival awards. The horror film Gwledd premiered at the SXSW festival, is distributed in North America by IFC and in Britain by Picturehouse. He has received awards in numerous festivals including BiFAN, Motel X and Neuchâtel. His TV series “Bang” won best series at the Bafta Cymru and Celtic Media Festival in 2018, for which Williams received a nomination for the Writers' Guild of Great Britain award. His television work includes the original series “Gwaith/Cartref” and “Tir” for Welsh-language broadcaster S4C and numerous other English-language creations for broadcasters BBC and Channel4.Every language achievement is always a starting point, never a point of arrival. The political strength of a minority language is measured not only by its ability to build social and cultural cohesion, but also by the courage and determination with which it succeeds in facing the challenges of the present and the future. A language endures if it can speak to new generations and thus if it's able to regenerate and absorb new languages,meaning if it can make itself speak. Roger Williams' movies, in recounting the political struggle over the creation of the S4C television channel, with its entire programming schedule in Welsh, tells an exemplary story in this respect, not only for its own community. Because it testifies to how important a media perspective that is not purely conservative, but flexible andinnovative, politically useful in the daily struggle that languages sustain in order to maintain themselves as a historical culture and restore their own worldview.IL POSTO DELLE PAROLEascoltare fa pensarewww.ilpostodelleparole.itDiventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/il-posto-delle-parole--1487855/support.

A Small Voice: Conversations With Photographers

Photographer, documentarian and digital storyteller Daniel Meadows (b. 1952) has spent a lifetime recording British society, challenging the status quo by working in a collaborative way to capture extraordinary aspects of ordinary life through pictures, audio recordings and short movies.He is best known for his 1973-74 journey around England in the Free Photographic Omnibus when he travelled 10,000 miles in a converted double-decker and made 958 portraits in "free studio" sessions on the streets of 22 different British towns and cities. This is a project he revisited in the 1990s, photographing again some of the subjects of those portraits for his widely published series National Portraits: Now & Then.His pioneering community storytelling project BBC Capture Wales (2001-08) encouraged many hundreds of people across Wales to embrace the arrival of the digital age in pop-up workshops by making their own two minutes of TV, framing their memories and pictures into digital stories, "multimedia sonnets from the people". Capture Wales won a BAFTA Cymru in 2002.Daniel taught the documentary photography course with David Hurn in Newport (1983-94); also photojournalism (1994-2001) and digital storytelling (2000-2012) at Cardiff School of Journalism, Media & Cultural Studies where he also completed his PhD in 2005. In the 1990s he taught photojournalism workshops in the emerging democracies of eastern Europe, also in India and Bangladesh. After 2000 he travelled repeatedly to Australia and the USA lecturing about his pioneering work in participatory media.His photographs and (more recently) his short films have been exhibited widely both in the UK and on the continent of Europe. Solo shows include the ICA London (1975), The Photographers' Gallery London (1987) and the National Media Museum Bradford (2011). His books include: Living Like This – Around Britain in the Seventies (1975,) Nattering In Paradise – A Word from the Suburbs (1987), National Portraits – Photographs from the 1970s (1997), and The Bus – The Free Photographic Omnibus 1973-2001 (2001).A detailed and scholarly overview of Daniel’s early work, Daniel Meadows: Edited Photographs from the 70s and 80s by Val Williams, was published in 2011.His photo-essays done in the industrial north of England in the 1970s are celebrated in the Café Royal Books boxed set edition Eight Stories (2015).The Daniel Meadows Archive was acquired in March 2018 by the Bodleian Library at the University of Oxford, where there is an exhibition of Daniel’s work entitled Daniel Meadows: Now and Then until November 24th this year, and the accompanying book, Now And Then: England 1970 - 2015, was recently published by the Bodleian. On episode 116, Daniel discusses, among other things:- His show at the Bodleian library and how they acquired his entire archive.- His formative experience of boarding school.- Being taught the science of photography at Manchester Poly. And meeting Martin Parr there.- HIs Greame Street project.- Photographing Butlins holiday camp with his friend, Martin Parr - and starting to shoot colour.- The June Street project, also with Martin Parr.- His love for digital storytelling and a loathing for ‘antisocial media’.Memories of his English road trip by double decker bus and of finding some of the people he photographed 25 years later.- Always thinking his work was 'rubbish' and not feeling a success. Referenced:Pete JamesVal WilliamsColin FordTracey MarshallBill BrandtMartin ParrBrian GriffinGarry WinograndDiane ArbusBBC Omnibus documentary Beautiful, Beautiful (1969)Bruce DavidsonIrving PennPaul TrevorCliff Richard Summer HolidayWilliam EgglestonCraig Atkinson’s Cafe Royal Books Website | Instagram | Facebook“I spent a lot of my life wishing that I’d taken pictures like Cartier-Bresson or Diane Arbus or Bill Brandt.

From wikipedia.org: John Scot Barrowman (born 11 March 1967) is a Scottish-American actor, singer, dancer, and writer who holds both British and American citizenship. Born in Glasgow, he grew up in Illinois following his family's emigration to the United States. Encouraged by his high school teachers, Barrowman studied performing arts at the United States International University in San Diego before landing the role of Billy Crocker in Cole Porter's Anything Goes at London's West End. Since his debut in professional theatre, Barrowman has played lead roles in various musicals both in the West End and on Broadway, including Miss Saigon, The Phantom of the Opera, Sunset Boulevard and Matador. After appearing in Sam Mendes' production of The Fix, he was nominated for the 1998 Laurence Olivier Award for Best Actor in a Musical and, in the early 2000s, returned to the role of Billy Crocker in the revival of Anything Goes. His most recent West End credit was in the 2009 production of La Cage aux Folles. Aside from his theatrical career, Barrowman has appeared in various films including the musical biopic De-Lovely (2004) and musical comedy The Producers (2005). Before venturing into British television, he featured in the American television dramas Titans and Central Park West but he is better known for his acting and presenting work for the BBC that includes his work for CBBC in its earlier years, his self-produced entertainment programme Tonight's the Night, and his BAFTA Cymru-nominated role of Captain Jack Harkness in the science fiction series Doctor Who and Torchwood. Barrowman has also had a number of guest roles in television programmes both in the US and the UK. He appeared as a contestant on the first series of celebrity ice skating show Dancing on Ice while his theatrical background allowed him to become a judge on Andrew Lloyd Webber's musical talent shows How Do You Solve a Problem like Maria?, Any Dream Will Do and I'd Do Anything. In 2006, he was voted Stonewall's Entertainer of the Year. More recently Barrowman starred in the CW's Arrow as Malcom Merlin/The Dark Archer the shows version of the DC villain Merlin the Archer. Barrowman is also featured on more than a dozen musical theatre recordings including cover tunes found on his 2007 album, Another Side, and 2008's Music Music Music. Both albums accrued places on the UK Albums Chart, as did his self-titled John Barrowman (2010), which reached number 11, his highest chart placing to date. Furthermore, Barrowman has published two memoirs and autobiographies, Anything Goes (2008) and I Am What I Am (2009), with his sister Carole as co-author. The siblings also teamed up to write a novel, Hollow Earth (2012).
