[ecrea] VIEW Journal issue 8 on Archive-Based Productions

Thu Jan 14 01:50:48 GMT 2016





EUscreenXL proudly presents Volume 4, Issue 08 of  the open access VIEW
Journal of European Television History and Culture.

In 1927, when Esfir Schub released her commissioned film The fall of the
Romanov Dynasty to commemorate the 10th anniversary of the October
Revolution, she hardly knew that her extensive use of film footage and
newsreels of the event would mark the invention of a new ‘genre’: the
archive-based production or compilation genre. Television has adopted
this genre, but audiovisual archives have fuelled a wide array of
programmes and genres beyond compilation productions.

Government, business, broadcast and film archives as well as amateur
collections and home videos are commonly used to spark memories and
re-enact events from the past in various contexts. They are made widely
accessible and re-used in traditional broadcast productions or given a
second life in digital environments through online circulation. In this
issue, scholars, archivists, and other media practitioners consider,
highlight and elaborate on Archive-Based Productions.

This eight issue was co-edited by Claude Mussou, head of InaTHEQUE, and
Mette Charis Buchman, senior manager of archive research at Danish
Broadcasting Corporation (DR).

Issue 08 is now fully and freely available at www.viewjournal.eu
