In this episode, Tim, Jon and Martin look at the fifth television series episode The Two Murderers. The team consider how this episode takes on the feel of a film noir, especially with regards to the lighting, look at the quality of Sid and Tony's acting throughout this episode and discuss the palpable sense of fear that both Hancock and James manage to portray. In a moment of light relief, the gang go on to practice how to eat egg and bacon with a spoon.   Tim, Jon and Martin are delighted to welcome Dick Fiddy, consultant with the British Film Institute (BFI) who discusses Hancock's legacy, BFI's Missing Believed Wiped campaign and considers what programmes have been influenced by Hancock, and the superb writing partnership of Ray Galton and Alan Simpson.

This month's podcast looks at the language of persuasion and how technical authors can use it. What do we mean by persuasive language? What is nudging and are we as technical authors able to use this type of language? As part of the research for this podcast I watched some public information films and read articles which are mentioned in the podcast. Many thanks to those organisations, authors and their expertise. Here are the links to the ones mentioned in the podcast: The British Film Institute (BFI) has a comprehensive catalogue of public information films as well as much other entertaining and informative material. You can watch the ones mentioned in the podcast by following the links below: Lonely water film Green Cross Code film AIDS awareness film Internet shopping film Marco Janicke's article "Who listens to safety instructions anyway" in TC World More info about Marco Nest leaf information We'll also publish a transcript of this podcast on the Cherryleaf blog.

„L'Atalante“ heißt der Flussfrachter, dessen junger Kapitän Jean das Mädchen vom Dorf, Juliette, heiratet. Sie erträumt sich von der Ehe den Ausbruch aus der Enge und Besuche in der Glitzerwelt von Paris. Die Wirklichkeit ist etwas ärmlicher und weniger aufregend, als Juliette erhofft hatte. Und so rechnet sich ein charmanter Straßenhändler bei ihr Chancen aus. Die junge Ehe zwischen Eifersucht, Streit, Selbstverwirklichung und Versöhnung scheint zu zerbrechen. Der wütende Ehemann muss erst einmal erwachsen werden, während Juliette mit der harten Wirklichkeit konfrontiert wird.Wir haben den französischen Filmklassiker von Jean Vigo in der Capitol-Jubiläumsnacht als Überraschungsfilm gesehen. Weniger als ein Dutzend Zuschauer haben bei der Information „französischer Schwarzweissfilm von 1934“ sofort das Kino verlassen. Das überwiegend junge Publikum hat sich auf Jean Vigos einzigen Langfilm eingelassen: Ein tragikomischer Liebesfilm, der in der Erzählweise, Dramaturgie und Inszenierung seiner Zeit weit voraus war und mit seinem poetischen Realismus unter anderem die Filmemacher:innen der Nouvelle Vague inspiriert hat. Eine einfache Liebesgeschichte mit überraschend subtilen Elementen – die Charaktere sind komplex und sie durchlaufen in nur 88 Minuten Laufzeit eine glaubwürdige Entwicklung.Jahrzehnte gab es den Film nur in einer stark geschnittenen Fassung, erst 1990 wurde eine längere Fassung entdeckt. Die ursprüngliche Schnittfassung wurde im Auftrag von Gaumont von Jean-Louis Bompoint und Pierre Philippe restauriert, wobei vor allem eine von Bompoint im britischen National Film and Television Archive entdeckte Kopie des Films zugrunde gelegt wurde, Wir haben im Capitol die restaurierte Version des British Film Institute (BFI) gesehen – im französischen Original mit englischen Untertiteln. Im Podcast nach dem Film reden wir über einen schlechtgelaunten Hochzeitszug, über die starke Hauptdarstellerin Dita Parlo, über eine faszinierende Unterwasser-Sequenz, über eine beeindruckende Tanzinszenierung und vielschichtige Nebenfiguren (der alte Matrose!) und wir fragen uns, was aus den Katzen an Bord der L'Atalante wurde. Am Mikrofon spät in der Nacht vor dem Capitol: Kathrin, Johanna und Thomas.

Fri, 25 Mar 2022 09:00:00 +0000 https://efm-industry-insights.podigee.io/25-accessibility b95d5326214765dec899f43e4a79ea63 Industry Insights – The EFM Podcast is presented by the European Film Market of the Berlinale. Hosted by curator-producer Nadia Denton and industry analyst Johanna Koljonen, it delves deep into the rapidly evolving film industry. Featuring the insights of thought leaders, policymakers and activists, this episode will explore the multitude of barriers faced by Disabled professionals in the film industry as well as the numerous organisations, initiatives and movements created to attain universal accessibility and to highlight the invaluable contributions of Disabled creatives to film culture. In an industry that does not generally value Disabled talent nor employ them to tell or embody Disabled stories, this episode will beg the important question of which moral, mental and organisational shifts need to take place in order to address these issues meaningfully. Andrew Miller MBE is a cultural consultant and broadcaster, recognized as one of the most influential Disability advocates in the UK who has transformed perceptions throughout his 30 year career. He belongs to the first generation of Disabled presenters of British television, becoming the first wheelchair user to run a major UK arts venue. Amanda Upson is an independent producer who focuses on the advocacy of the underrepresented in front of and behind the camera via producing and consulting. She is interim director and a contributing member of Filmmakers With Disabilities: FWD-Doc. Within this episode Amanda mentions a private Facebook Group: Deaf & Disabled People in TV. Kyla Harris is a filmmaker, writer and activist who applies an intersectional approach to all of her work. She is a member of the Disability Screen Advisory Group for the British Film Institute (BFI). Kyla advocates for people who share her own identities as a queer, Disabled, woman of color. Along with Filmmakers With Disabilities (FWD-Doc) she co-wrote a Toolkit for Inclusion & Accessibility: Changing the Narrative of Disability in Documentary Film in association with Doc Society and Netflix as well as The FWD-Doc Engagement Pack in association with Doc Society and the BFI. Towards the end of this podcast episode, Kyla quotes her favorite statement by Mia Mungus, which for her sums up everything discussed in this episode and can be applied not only to filmmaking but to life in general. Dr Grishma Shah is an artist and psychologist who consults with filmmakers, film festivals and production companies at various stages of the creative process. Her objective is to champion stories of diversity in inaccessible spaces to introduce new narratives of beauty and worth into the global market. As a visual artist, Grishma infuses heritage and components of mixed media into her artistry to create 3D paintings. She furthermore published Dissertations told through podcast miniseries. Currently, she works as a consultant for the 1in4coalition and as mass media consultant for the ReelAbilities Film Festival Chicago During the conversation the Jack Thorne's James MacTaggart Memorial Lecture from summer 2021 at The Edinburgh International Television Festival is mentioned. This podcast episode has been developed in partnership with the British Film Institute in connection with their Press Reset campaign to inspire authority figures in film and TV to reset practices involving Disabled people and establish a new, more inclusive normal. The BFI also recently presented a series of screenings, talks and presentations showcasing Disabled practitioners' work with their Busting the Bias programme. The Berlinale's European Film Market is the first international film market of the year, where the film industry starts its business. Industry Insights - The EFM Podcast puts a spotlight on highly topical and trendsetting industry issues, thereby creating a compass for the forthcoming film year. The year-round podcast is produced in cooperation with Goethe-Institut and co-funded by Creative Europe MEDIA. full no Film Industry,European Film Market,Accessibility,British Film Institute,Disabled,Berlinale,Media Industry European Film Market

Francis Bacon was an artist whose radical generosity teetered on the edge of self-obliteration –– and he sometimes pulled others over the edge with him. Many of our listeners will be familiar with Bacon's work, or at least would recognise his idiosyncratic style if they saw it; sweeps of fleshy paint across black fields of colour, portraying contorted, mangled bodies, racks of hanging meat, and the iconic screaming mouth. But Bacon is almost as famous for the way he lived his life: his raucous partying, brutal barbed tongue, and love of boozing made him an emblem of London's bohemian Soho scene. What linked his work and his life was an obsession with violence, something that he knew intimately.  ----more---- Daniel Farson, The Gilded Gutter Life of Francis Bacon (New York: Pantheon Books, 1993) John Maybury et al., Love Is the Devil: Study for a Portrait of Francis Bacon, Biography, Drama, Romance (BBC Films, British Film Institute (BFI), Arts Council of England, 1998) Michael Peppiatt, Francis Bacon: Anatomy of an Enigma (Abingdon-on-Thames: Routledge, 2019) Richard Curson Smith et al., Francis Bacon: A Brush with Violence, Documentary, Biography (IWC Media, 2017) David Sylvester, Interviews with Francis Bacon, Third edition (New York, NY: Thames & Hudson, 2016).

Django Nudo and Smut Peddler try recording themselves on camera, rather than just with microphones. This could get interesting, at least if D.N. ever figures out how to use iMovie. In the meantime there is a shameless plug for the Everyman Cult Tuesday that kicks off in UK next week with a screening of the 4K restoration of "Night of the Living Dead" (1968).  This week we are proud to have partnered the British Film Institute (BFI) to showcase some lesser known films, which have been issued on the Flipside label. “BFI Flipside is dedicated to rediscovering the margins of British film, reclaiming a space for forgotten movies and filmmakers who would otherwise be in danger of disappearing from our screens forever. It is a home for UK cinematic oddities, offering everything from exploitation documentaries to B-movies, countercultural curios and obscure classics, If it's weird, British and forgotten, then it's Flipside.” We have four films from Flipside. “Herostratus” (1967) by Don Levy stars Michael Gothard and a 22-year old Helen Mirren, in a story of a young man who has decided to kill himself  spectacularly. Experimental and strange, it influenced directors such as Stanley Kubrick, Nicolas Roeg and Michael Winner. Worth the price of admission alone for the scene of (future Dame) Helen Mirren in a fetching corset and fishnets. (We play her sexy monologue about rubber gloves.)“Requiem for a Village” (1975) is a folk-horror/drama, though not as scary as well observed. Think of it as a genteel Night of the Midsommer Dead. Directed by David Gladwell, who was an editor for the BBC, this story of  the rural past of a Suffolk village coming to life through the memories of an old man. He tends a country graveyard and sees the dead rise up from the graves, living their lives again.  (We play the avantgarde choir.)"Voice Over" (1981) by Christopher Monger stars the great Ian McNeice in the lead. The film is a mix of “Berberian Sound Studio” (2012) and John Candy comedy “Delirious” (1991) in which a radio host see the line between fiction and brutal reality slowly blurring. Made for just £11,000  it became director Chris Monger ticket to Hollywood. (Hear the monologue by Ian McNeice when he starts to lose it.)"Sleepwalker" (1984) by Saxon Logan is the most pure horror of any of the films. Two couples stay in an old victorian house and “a fractious evening of drunkenness and sexual rivalry soon turns bloody as the guests fall victim to an unhinged attacker.” A mix of satire and horror, it is like a cross between the films of Lindsay Anderson and Dario Argento. (We play the eerie intro music.)Featuring two-thirds of the Pythons gang (Palin, Jones, Idle and Gilliam) “Do Not Adjust Your Set” (1967-69) was an influential 60s comedy sketch show with bizarre musical antics of the legendary Bonzo Dog Band. (We play their song Hunting Tigers Out in India.)  “Masters of Venus” (1962) was distributed as a cinema serial about two children accidentally launched into a space in a rocket built by their father (NB: not Elon Musk).Having accidentally crashed half-way through the recording (Smutty's laptop batteries died), we make it to the end and just give a quick name check to this week's other new film, "Frozen Scream" (1975). We end with Bonzo Dog Band's song Death Cab for Cutie, which is where the US indie band took their name from.

The past two years have seen worldwide changes in the ways we talk about racial and cultural representation. Contemporary audiences are increasingly seeking out and demanding greater diversity in our screen and performing arts sectors. Writer/broadcaster Sunil Badami talks to CEO of Creative Diversity Network (UK) Deborah Williams about how things are shifting globally. We also speak to Refugee Art Project's Safdar Ahmed about the impacts of Covid 19 on his artistic practice and the communities he works with.British Council, Creative Victoria, Screen Australia, Belvoir Street Theatre, The Wheeler Centre and Diversity Arts Australia hosted and supported Deborah's visit to Australia in 2019. As the former Diversity Manager at the British Film Institute (BFI), Deborah designed the diversity standards for film and broadcasting in the UK and has a wealth of insight when it comes to the creative sector.

In the eight episode of Cultpix Radio WCPX 66.6 we count down one week left of VIP only membership, so join now while it is still cheaper, before the site opens to everyone.  We discuss what developments you will see on the site in Phase 2 (Chromecast support tops the list); lots of films and TV shows coming to Cultpix after we completed a bunch of transfers from Digibeta; restorations and films delivered to us by the Swedish Film Institute (SFI) and the British Film Institute (BFI), as well as Nikkatsu starting restoration of our secret project. The use of A.I. and machine learning (ML) for restoring, up-converting, colorizing and enhancing footage that is over 100 years old captures our attention  as one of the leading online adult sites makes its AI watch 100,000 hours of porn to learn how to do it - hopefully not going blind or getting hairy palms in the process. So which of our own films would we consider for this treatment? Grandma will never have looked so good in the buff!Bernard Hermann's strings announce our Theme Week look at Slasher Killers. What was spawned by Hitchcock's Psycho and Powell's Peeping Tom had an interesting pre-history of all the tropes of a classic slasher film being pioneered earlier, as well as early examples of the genre like Coppola's Dementia 13. Andy Milligan's The Ghastly Ones, a.k.a. Blood Rites (1968) pointed the way with its low budget, single location, excess gore is interesting in being a period slasher film. In The Horrible House on the Hill (1974) the slashers are kids, while Drive-In Massacre (1976) have some of the fattest cops you've seen in a horror film. Killer Workout / Aerobicide (1987) is such a by-the-numbers slasher that of course it has a shower scene, but at least a novel deadly instrument (oversized safety pin). Six teenagers, a weekend by a lake, one bloodthirsty maniac all makes it a Blood Lake (1987). Lastly Effects (1979) is a very meta slasher film as the film crew discusses viewers' appetite for seeing grissly scenes on film.New films this week include two from the Nordisk Tonefilm archive, with almost 50 films that we will be sharing on Cultpix in the coming months, which we also hope to make English subtitles available for. The Starlost is the 'lost' Canadian television series that could have become the new Star Trek if it had not been cancelled early. Finally New Faces (1954) sees Mel Brooks trying out ideas that would later come back in The Producers, while Eartha Kitt sings MONOTONOUS:Everyone gets into a dull routineIf they don't get a chance to change the sceneI could not be wearierLife could not be drearierIf I lived in SiberiaI'll tell ya what I meanI met a rather amusing foolWhile on my way to IstanbulHe bought me the Black Sea for my swimming poolMonotonous...

We talk with Louise McAward-White, Collections Systems Specialist at the British Film Institute (BFI) and co-founder of Fair Museum Jobs, about improving collections systems at the BFI and contributing to a more equitable practice in museum employment.

'Day 5' ends the first weekend of the 35th 'BFI Flare: London LGBTIQ+ Film Festival'. Our @echochamberfp coverage looks at first love in its truest, sweetest forms. Both films are debuts from the directors and the work will really give the heart palpitations. One deals with holiday love and the other shows us that even in tragedy love can be found 'Sweetheart' is the debut feature film, written/directed by Marley Morrison. Tina (Jo Hartley) wants one more holiday with all the family, especially as her eldest Lucy (Sophia Di Martino) is soon to have a baby with her boyfriend Steve (Samuel Anderson). The problem is AJ aka April Jane (Nell Barlow) did not want to come, AND, is not going to have fun! She doesn't want to be on a campsite looking after her little sister Dayna (Tabitha Byron). That is until she bumps into lifeguard Isla (Ella-Rae Smith) and wonders if this could be her official awakening since coming out, and maybe, she could fall in and receive love. 'My First Summer' is the sensational debut from writer & director Katie Found @katiefound It introduces us to Claudia (Markella Kavenagh) after she's gone through a tragedy no one should ever face. All her life she's lived in isolation, so she is lost, with only her dog Tilly for a companion. That is, until Grace (Maiah Stewardson) comes by. Because Grace was the only witness to the incident and wants to make sure Claudia is OK. In doing so, they become close, offering each other the thing neither thought they were truly missing. But is it enough to keep all of the perils of life at bay.

University of Chicago anthropology graduate student Kristi Rhead revisits the Indian Ocean island of Réunion where she once lived in a discussion with her former roommate, Asa Waterworth. They ask a simple question: Why would a museum that was never built lead to a massive controversy that would come to divide an island known for its unity in diversity? In thinking about this, Kristi and Asa explore the enigmatic history of the French overseas department of Réunion, rethink generally accepted facts about how decolonization works, dig into local school curriculum and politics, and even consider the wreck of the Titanic. Themes touched upon include the politics of commemoration, decolonization, ideology, multiculturalism, creolization, and the history of France and the Indian Ocean region. ***************************************************************************For more information and further reading, see the following: *Rhead, Kristi. “Liberté, Identité, Diversité: Generation and Fantasy in the Politics of Education on Réunion Island.” University of Chicago, 2020. * Fiennes, Sophie.

Hello and welcome to fifteenth episode of Fanboy Nation’s Toon-In-Talk, your rendezvous for animation interviews. During research for her book on Lotte Reiniger, Whitney was using the British Film Institute’s website for information. She came across some great animation information, not just about Reiniger, but also about British animation. Jez Stewart in the BFI’s Animation Animation Curator and during this interview he discusses British animation history, the BFI’s animation holdings, and other fun facts about working in a renowned film archive. Show Notes Jez Stewart is the Animation Curator at the British Film Institute (BFI) and he has worked there for fourteen years. He started as an acquisitions assistant and slowly his worked his way up to his current position. Jez describes his work at a mixture of “spreadsheets and boxes of delights.” He works with all the old goodies, including some of the earliest animated films ever made. Jez explains the decomposition of old film stock and how they must store some films at very cold temperatures. The BFI is the UK’s lead body of film, created in 1933, and its purpose is to ensure that all moving images are preserved, shared with people, and exhibit British culture. The BFI’s collection scope if very large. They have work from studios that closed down, wanted to clean out their closets, and more. A large portion of the work is commercial, but they also include material from feature films and other entertainment venues. Housed in the archive is Bob Godfrey’s work, WWI films that make fun of the Kaiser, public information films, the Halas and Batchelor films (they made Animal Farm). Jez explains some of the ways the BFI preserves the films and how the BFI decides to share the material. One of the worst roadblocks is copyright. British animation has gone up and down in the amount of popularity. It was very big in the 1950s when TV was new, then the funding dried up. Channel 4 money helped animation flourish again in the 1980s-1990s, but then it dried up again. Aardman Studios, which made the Wallace and Gromit series and Shaun the Sheep, is the most well-known British animator. Jez is also a fan of Michael Please, Harry Harlow, and others. A lot of British animation exported to the US are children’s shows. Whitney and Jez discuss how foreign feature films are viewed in the US and the UK. They also discuss how sometimes restoration can ruin a film’s integrity and how sometimes there is no school like the old school. The BFI is trying to put more content on the Internet and share more animation film packages to share with audiences, and Jez wants to write a history of British animation. Whitney and Jez both want to see more animation from British animators, especially a feature film.
