It is a master course in the creation of entertainment that does more than meet the standards of modern audiences'"it challenges their expectations.

Abstract

Plus que jamais, les films et les programmes de télévision européens se battent pour capter des parts de marché face à l'assaut de contenus à succès originaires, notamment, des Etats-Unis. La progression du marché du contenu à la demande signifie qu'il existe désormais, potentiellement, un nouveau canal pour la promotion des œuvres européennes par l'intermédiaire des différents services à la demande. Mais comment l'Europe a-t-elle intégré ces services à la demande et leur potentiel dans sa législation ? L'Observatoire européen de l'audiovisuel vient de publier un nouveau rapport détaillé IRIS Spécial qui pose précisément cette question.

Abstract

La télévision sort de son écran. L'arrivée du numérique entraîne la délinéarisation ainsi qu'une plus grande disponibilité des contenus : une bonne partie des titres sont désormais conçus pour une livraison sur les nouvelles plateformes, qu'il s'agisse de logiciels spécifiques, de sites Web ou des services de vidéo à la demande qui, depuis quelques années, ne se limitent plus à la diffusion mais deviennent aussi producteurs. La télévision est-elle morte ? Le présent ouvrage répond à cette question par la négative, en montrant que, depuis toujours, la télévision est caractérisée par une forte instabilité : insoumise, elle est un média en transition issu de la convergence de plusieurs autres médias dont le cinéma, la radio et le téléphone. Choisissant de penser le numérique comme un catalyseur d'expériences télévisuelles, les textes ici réunis, écrits par des chercheurs provenant de différents pays et contextes disciplinaires, montrent qu'aujourd'hui (comme autrefois) la télévision réinvente son identité ainsi que ses formes, s'adaptant à des impératifs de nature technologique, géographique et contextuelle."

Abstract

"This content is not available in your country." At some point, most media consumers around the world have run into a message like this. Whether trying to watch a DVD purchased during a vacation abroad, play an imported Japanese video game, or listen to a Spotify library while traveling, we are constantly reminded of geography's imprint on digital culture. We are locked out. Despite utopian hopes of a borderless digital society, DVDs, video games, and streaming platforms include digital rights management mechanisms that block media access within certain territories. These technologies of "regional lockout" are meant first and foremost to keep the entertainment industries' global markets distinct. But they also frustrate consumers and place territories on a hierarchy of global media access. Drawing on extensive research of media-industry strategies, consumer and retailer practices, and media regulation, Locked Out explores regional lockout's consequences for media around the globe. Power and capital are at play when it comes to who can consume what content and who can be a cultural influence. Looking across digital technologies, industries, and national contexts, Locked Out argues that the practice of regional lockout has shaped and reinforced global hierarchies of geography and culture.

Abstract

How streaming services and internet distribution have transformed global television culture.Television, once a broadcast medium, now also travels through our telephone lines, fiber optic cables, and wireless networks. It is delivered to viewers via apps, screens large and small, and media players of all kinds. In this unfamiliar environment, new global giants of television distribution are emerging-including Netflix, the world's largest subscription video-on-demand service.Combining media industry analysis with cultural theory, Ramon Lobato explores the political and policy tensions at the heart of the digital distribution revolution, tracing their longer history through our evolving understanding of media globalization. Netflix Nations considers the ways that subscription video-on-demand services, but most of all Netflix, have irrevocably changed the circulation of media content. It tells the story of how a global video portal interacts with national audiences, markets, and institutions, and what this means for how we understand global media in the internet age.Netflix Nations addresses a fundamental tension in the digital media landscape - the clash between the internet's capacity for global distribution and the territorial nature of media trade, taste, and regulation. The book also explores the failures and frictions of video-on-demand as experienced by audiences. The actual experience of using video platforms is full of subtle reminders of market boundaries and exclusions: platforms are geo-blocked for out-of-region users ("this video is not available in your region"); catalogs shrink and expand from country to country; prices appear in different currencies; and subtitles and captions are not available in local languages. These conditions offer rich insight for understanding the actual geographies of digital media distribution. Contrary to popular belief, the story of Netflix is not just an American one. From Argentina to Australia, Netflix's ascension from a Silicon Valley start-up to an international television service has transformed media consumption on a global scale. Netflix Nations will help readers make sense of a complex, ever-shifting streaming media environment.

Abstract

Since the mid-1980s, US audiences have watched the majority of movies they see on a video platform, be it VHS, DVD, Blu-ray, Video On Demand, or streaming media. Annual video revenues have exceeded box office returns for over twenty-five years. In short, video has become the structuring discourse of US movie culture. Killer Tapes and Shattered Screens examines how prerecorded video reframes the premises and promises of motion picture spectatorship. But instead of offering a history of video technology or reception, Caetlin Benson-Allott analyzes how the movies themselves understand and represent the symbiosis of platform and spectator. Through case studies and close readings that blend industry history with apparatus theory, psychoanalysis with platform studies, and production history with postmodern philosophy, Killer Tapes and Shattered Screens unearths a genealogy of post-cinematic spectatorship in horror movies, thrillers, and other exploitation genres. From Night of the Living Dead (1968) through Paranormal Activity (2009), these movies pursue their spectator from one platform to another, adapting to suit new exhibition norms and cultural concerns in the evolution of the video subject.
