Piracy in the Motion Picture Industry


Free Download Kerry Segrave, "Piracy in the Motion Picture Industry"
English | 2003 | ISBN: 0786414731 | PDF | pages: 229 | 7.5 mb
Film piracy began almost immediately after the birth of the film industry. Initially it was a within-the-industry phenomenon as studios stole from each other. As the industry grew and more money was involved, outsiders became more interested in piracy. Stolen material made its way offshore since detection was less likely. Hollywood’s major film studios vigorously pursued pirates and had the situation fairly well under control by the middle 1970s-not eliminated but reduced to a low level-until videocassettes arrived.

Transmedia Directors Artistry, Industry and New Audiovisual Aesthetics


Free Download Carol Vernallis, "Transmedia Directors: Artistry, Industry and New Audiovisual Aesthetics "
English | ISBN: 1501339273 | 2019 | 528 pages | AZW3 | 4 MB
Transmedia Directors focuses on artist-practitioners who work across media, platforms and disciplines, including film, television, music video, commercials and the internet. Working in the age of media convergence, today’s em/impresarios project a distinctive style that points toward a new contemporary aesthetics. The media they engage with enrich their practices – through film and television (with its potential for world-building and sense of the past and future), music video (with its audiovisual aesthetics and rhythm), commercials (with their ability to project a message quickly) and the internet (with its refreshed concepts of audience and participation), to larger forms like restaurants and amusement parks (with their materiality alongside today’s digital aesthetics). These directors encourage us to reassess concepts of authorship, assemblage, transmedia, audiovisual aesthetics and world-building.

Thermophiles for Biotech Industry A Bioprocess Technology Perspective


Free Download Jujjavarapu Satya Eswari, Swasti Dhagat, Ramkrishna Sen, "Thermophiles for Biotech Industry: A Bioprocess Technology Perspective"
English | 2019 | pages: 115 | ISBN: 9813299185, 9813299215 | PDF | 2,7 mb
Thermophiles and hyperthermophiles exhibit great biotechnological potential, as they can be utilized in processes which require higher temperatures. This book comprehensively deals with all the aspects of thermophiles, starting from the source of these organisms to their latest applications. In addition it presents a compilation of all compounds produced by various thermophilic microorganisms. Due to their application in everyday life, the demands of enzymes that can work at higher temperature have been increasing. In order to keep pace with the increasing demand the industries have to search novel thermophiles producing their product of interest. Hence, this book will be of value for industries working on various biochemical products produced by these thermophiles as well as for scientists and research scholars working on microbiology and products derived from microorganisms.

The Price of Death The Funeral Industry in Contemporary Japan


Free Download Hikaru Suzuki, "The Price of Death: The Funeral Industry in Contemporary Japan"
English | 2002 | pages: 288 | ISBN: 0804735611 | PDF | 14,9 mb
Funerary practices have long been a classic topic of anthropological inquiry, which has tended to focus on death rituals as expressions and reinforcers of community ties and values. In this book, the author looks at funerals as an urban business, based on her fieldwork at a large Japanese funeral company. Her central theme is the progressive commercialization of what once were primarily religious rituals. The book depicts the process of contemporary Japanese funerals, the practices of those who provide commercial funeral services, and the motivations and behavior of the mourners who purchase those services. In so doing, it examines the role of funeral companies in shaping Japanese cultural practices and changing an important aspect of Japanese society. The author addresses several related questions: What cultural changes accompanied the shift from traditional community funeral rituals to commercial funeral services? How did the mass consumption of commercial funerals produce cultural homogeneity while allowing for differences in individual services? How does the marketing of professional funeral services mediate changing cultural values? How have commercial services served to objectify changing concepts of dying, death, and the deceased in contemporary Japan? The author demonstrates that the funeral industry, the purchasers of funeral services, and Japanese values surrounding death are mutually dependent and are responsible for supporting, representing, and transforming cultural practices. Throughout, the author relates vivid and often moving details and anecdotes to lend a personal element to her study of the commodification of death in Japan.
