Download or read book The Film Industry in Brazil written by Randal Johnson. This book was released on 2010-11-23. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Looking back through the prism of the severe economic crisis for filmmaking in the 1980s, The Film Industry in Brazil explores the unusual relationship between the state-supported industry, which often produced politically radical films, and the authoritarian regime that had held sway for twenty years. To ground his analysis, Johnson covers the early years of the film industry, 1898-1930; attempts at industrialization during the 1930s and 1940s; film industry congresses and government film boards, 1950-1966; the National Film Institute, 1966-1975; and the expansion of the state's role from 1969 through 1980.Well-conceived, carefully researched and documented, Johnson's study fills a major gap in film studies by tracing the development of this industry in Brazil, focusing specifically on its relationship to the state.

Book Synopsis "O Brasil Espera Que Cada Um Cumpre O Seu Dever": the Instituto Nacional de Cinema Educativo and the Development of the Brazilian Film Industry (1896-1966) by : Rachel Anne Hill
Download or read book "O Brasil Espera Que Cada Um Cumpre O Seu Dever": the Instituto Nacional de Cinema Educativo and the Development of the Brazilian Film Industry (1896-1966) written by Rachel Anne Hill. This book was released on 2013. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Instituto Nacional de Cinema Educativo (1936-1966) was a Brazilian organization created by the state to produce educational films which promoted learning and inquiry through nationalistic themes and topics. State-sponsored educational cinema was presented as a medium to advocate social betterment and civic engagement through education as well as being a vehicle to promote the ideals and politics of the state. To accomplish these goals, the state unsuccessfully co-opted the domestic commercial industry and its resources in an attempt to establish educational cinema as the national genre. However, state-sponsored educational cinema was an unsustainable venture as the state failed to recognize the fragile structure of the Brazilian commercial industry, the preferences of the internal market, and the influence and domination of foreign studios over the domestic market and industry, failing to create a cohesive Brazilian cinematic industry and voice. This study analyzes the emergence, purpose, and eventual failure of state-sponsored educational cinema by examining the economic treatises and dependency which inhibited industrialization, the circumstances under which educational cinema and the institute emerged, an overview of the history, goals, and challenges of the institute to effectively incorporate educational cinema into the social and cultural fabric of the country, and how the institute's productions reflected these objectives and contributed to the Brazilian cinematic history and cannon.
