Synopsis Cinematic Terror by : Tony Shaw
Cinematic Terror takes a uniquely long view of filmmakers' depiction of terrorism, examining how cinema has been a site of intense conflict between paramilitaries, state authorities and censors for well over a century. In the process, it takes us on a journey from the first Age of Terror that helped trigger World War One to the Global War on Terror that divides countries and families today. Tony Shaw looks beyond Hollywood to pinpoint important trends in the ways that film industries across Europe, North and South America, Asia, Africa and the Middle East have defined terrorism down the decades. Drawing on a vast array of studio archives, government documentation, personal interviews and box office records, Shaw examines the mechanics of cinematic terrorism and challenges assumptions about the links between political violence and propaganda.

Synopsis The Business of Filmmaking by : Maria Johnsen
The business of filmmaking is a multifaceted and intricate industry that encompasses various aspects such as production, distribution, and marketing. Success in this field requires a combination of talent, creativity, and business acumen. Filmmakers must possess a thorough understanding of the market, identifying trends and opportunities to capitalize on. Additionally, they must adeptly manage budgets, negotiate deals, and foster relationships with investors, distributors, and other industry stakeholders. Recent years have witnessed significant transformations in the film industry due to advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) technology and the surge of streaming services. While traditional movie theaters retain their importance, an increasing number of viewers now prefer online or mobile platforms for film consumption. Consequently, filmmakers must adapt to these evolving trends and find innovative ways to engage with audiences. My goal in writing this book is to raise awareness about film marketing processes and the art of building a business and network within the film industry. Unfortunately, colleges and universities often neglect these critical aspects, with the majority of lectures and programs focusing solely on the technicalities of filmmaking. Merely obtaining a master's degree in film production is insufficient for success in this field. To thrive in filmmaking, like any other business, one must cultivate relationships with various stakeholders, ranging from cast and crew to sales agents, distributors, exhibitors, lawyers, and publicists. This book is not another typical guide to filmmaking. Instead, I delve into the essential elements of building a successful business in the movie industry, emphasizing the impact of artificial intelligence on different aspects of the filmmaking process. Furthermore, I discuss strategies for increasing the value of one's film, such as hiring A-list actors for low-budget projects and more.

Synopsis Edgar G. Ulmer by : Noah Isenberg
Edgar G. Ulmer is perhaps best known today for Detour, considered by many to be the epitome of a certain noir style that transcends its B-list origins. But in his lifetime he never achieved the celebrity of his fellow Austrian and German émigré directors—Billy Wilder, Otto Preminger, Fred Zinnemann, and Robert Siodmak. Despite early work with Max Reinhardt and F. W. Murnau, his auspicious debut with Siodmak on their celebrated Weimar classic People on Sunday, and the success of films like Detour and Ruthless, Ulmer spent most of his career as an itinerant filmmaker earning modest paychecks for films that have either been overlooked or forgotten. In this fascinating and well-researched account of a career spent on the margins of Hollywood, Noah Isenberg provides the little-known details of Ulmer’s personal life and a thorough analysis of his wide-ranging, eclectic films—features aimed at minority audiences, horror and sci-fi flicks, genre pictures made in the U.S. and abroad. Isenberg shows that Ulmer’s unconventional path was in many ways more typical than that of his more famous colleagues. As he follows the twists and turns of Ulmer’s fortunes, Isenberg also conveys a new understanding of low-budget filmmaking in the studio era and beyond.

Synopsis Sunrise by : Lucy Fischer
Sunrise: A Song of Two Humans (1927) is one of the most historically pivotal of all films. The first American film of the celebrated German director F.W. Murnau, Sunrise tells the story of a love triangle between characters named only as The Man, The Wife, and The Woman from the City. Lucy Fischer's compelling study of the film shows how it mediates between German expressionism and American melodrama, the avantgarde and popular film, silent cinema and 'talkies'. A lavish and sumptuous production famous for its vast, specially-constructed sets, and one of the first feature films with a synchronized musical score and sound effects soundtrack, Sunrise was one of early Hollywood's most ambitious undertakings. In her foreword to this new edition, Lucy Fischer considers the film as an abiding classic of world cinema.
