Hi guys,
There have been some really interesting podcasts recently which would be great extra reading(listening) for section B of G322 (that's the exam for Lukas). I have listed a summary here for each one. All are from ther Radio 4 Film Programme and can be downloaded following this link...
Radio 4 Film Programme Podcasts
13th February 2014 - 12 minutes in
Charles Gant (a film industry analyst) looks at how films vary in success in different regions. Specific examples include the huge US/UK flop of The Lone Ranger, which was actually really successful in Japan and Pacific Rim which was really popular in China, as well as About Time, a Ruichard Curtis film, that was huge in South Korea. This example is elaborated on by Tim Bevan, co-chairman of Working Title. This is particularly important at the monment as we start to look at audiences. Quoting him in your answers (where relevant) would be a very good idea.
16th February 2014 - from start
This is the BAFTA special podcast. There is quite an interesting discussion about what it means to be a British film. There is also a good sound byte from Alfonso Cuaron (director of Gravity) as part of it.
Enjoy.
