Zoe Wallin – författare

This book explores the ways in which Hollywood film cycles from the 1930s to the 1960s were shaped by their surrounding industrial contexts and market environments, to build an inclusive conception of the form, operation, and function of film cycles.By foregrounding patterns of distribution, spaces of exhibition, and modes of consumption as key components of the form and mechanics of cycles, this book develops a methodology for defining cycles based on an analysis of the industry and trade discourse. Applying her unique framework to six case studies of different cycles, Zoe Wallin blends a wide range of historical sources to analyze the many cultural, social, political, aesthetic, and industrial contexts relevant to these films.This book makes an important contribution to the literature in the area of film historiography, and will be of interest to any scholars of film studies, history and media studies.

Beyond Virtual Production brings together a range of creative practice research projects that have been undertaken in The Void, an early-adopter university-based virtual production studio at Flinders University in South Australia.From a cross-disciplinary short virtual production film, to a VR simulation of the last 100 seconds of life of earth, to the live performance of the virtual band Big Sands, to augmented and extended reality, to archaeological projects, this collection captures the potential applications of virtual production technology and provides a framework for cross-disciplinary work and industry collaborations both in a university context and beyond. It offers insight into the development of virtual production courses and encompasses research into theories of performance, liveness, methods for co-creation, gender in virtual production careers, and object digitization and its representation while highlighting significant pathways of industry partnerships alongside experimental art practices.Creative technology and interdisciplinary practitioners, researchers, students, and teachers will find inspiration and practical guidance in these chapters.The Open Access version of this book, available at http://www.taylorfrancis.com, has been made available under a Creative Commons [Attribution-Non Commercial-No Derivatives (CC-BY-NC-ND)] 4.0 license.
