Abstract

Taking a multisector and multimarket approach, Digital Media Worlds provides an in-depth analysis of the major economic developments of the book publishing, broadcasting, film, music, newspaper and video game industries. The contributors offer a detailed overview of the industries and their dynamics within global telecommunications, media and IT, combining vertical views and a synthetic horizontal approach to marshal facts and document their economic relevance. The collection focuses on core economic and management issues (cost structures, value network chain, business models) and analyses new ecosystems and value chains in global markets such as Asia.

Abstract

Submergé par la déferlante du numérique, qui brouille radicalement les frontières entre les médias (cinéma, télévision, BD, Internet, téléphonie, etc.), le cinéma serait en train de mourir : la chaleur du photochimique a cédé le terrain à la froideur du pixel et le hors-film a commencé à envahir, avec ses transmissions par satellite, les salles dévolues au septième art. Pourtant le cinéma est partout : il s’inscrit sur de nouveaux supports et s’affiche sur de nouveaux écrans. On peut néanmoins se demander si un film en DVD vu sur écran vidéo, c’est encore du cinéma, et si les images encodées du compositing numérique et de la motion capture relèvent toujours du cinématographique. En s’appuyant sur leur hypothèse de la « double naissance des médias », les auteurs interrogent les soubresauts identitaires que le cinéma traverse aujourd’hui et proposent des clefs pour comprendre l’impact du numérique sur l’univers médiatique actuel. Serions-nous en train d’assister à une troisième naissance du cinéma ?

Abstract

This book addresses the lack of scholarship on the impact of new media on German film. It provides analysis that focuses on cinematic practices and productions and how they have been affected by a variety of technologies. The author narrows her critical focus to specific examples that illustrate very particular effects. She focuses on filmmakers who are working outside of the established mainstream Hollywood studio production system. There is also usage of Bertolt Brecht's theories on new media and theatre to better understand how technologies impact performance art. The book is most interested

Abstract

The 'narrative turn' in the humanities, which expanded the study of narrative to various disciplines, has found a correlate in the 'medial turn' in narratology. Long restricted to language-based literary fiction, narratology has found new life in the recognition that storytelling can take place in a variety of media, and often combines signs belonging to different semiotic categories: visual, auditory, linguistic and perhaps even tactile. The essays gathered in this volume apply the newly gained awareness of the expressive power of media to particular texts, demonstrating the productivity of a medium-aware analysis. Through the examination of a wide variety of different media, ranging from widely studied, such as literature and film, to new, neglected, or non-standard ones, such as graphic novels, photography, television, musicals, computer games and advertising, they address some of the most fundamental questions raised by the medial turn in narratology: how can narrative meaning be created in media other than language; how do different types of signs collaborate with each other in so-called 'multi-modal works', and what new forms of narrativity are made possible by the emergence of digital media.

Abstract

"There are two developments in the second half of the twentieth century have helped to define our media culture in the twenty-first. One is the rise of digital media: websites, videogames, social media, and mobile applications, as well as all the remediations of film, television, radio, and print that now appear in digital form. The other development is the end of our collective belief in what we might call Culture with a capital C. Since the middle of the twentieth century, traditional hierarchies of the visual arts, literature, and music as forms of creativity have broken down. This has been accompanied by a decline in the status of the humanities--literary studies in particular, but also history and philosophy. Jay Bolter's THE PLENITUDE is the story of how the dissolution of previously sacrosanct media institutions succumbed to the pervasive power of new forms of media. It is not an argument favoring an elite form of culture over popular culture, but rather a examination of how these changes have affected the divided societies we live in today"--
