The British Cinematographer
100 years of British cinematography
1960s British Cinema
Half a century on, the fascination with the 1960s continues to generate strong intellectual and emotional responses - both positive and negative - and this is no less true in the arena of film. Making substantial use of a range of new and underexplored archive resources that provide a wealth of new information, insight and knowledge on the period in question, this book brings fresh perspectives on the major resurgence of creativity and international appeal experienced by British cinema in the 1960s.
Shot in New Zealand
Much of the visual impact of New Zealand films can be attributed directly to the cinematographer, the creative individual primarily responsible for the look of a film. The cinematographer is both an artist and a craftsman, combining a fine aesthetic sensibility and visual eye with a deep technical understanding of the properties of light, lenses, film stocks and processing. The contribution of the cinematographer to the visual representation of the nation is as significant as that of other visual artists such as painters and photographers. Drawing heavily on in-depth interviews with a dozen of this country's cinematographers, Shot in New Zealand profiles their careers and creative contribution to New Zealand cinema, charting their creative achievements, experiences working with local and international film-makers, and resourcefulness in dealing with often limited resources and the harsh New Zealand light. Includes the following cinematographers: Warrick Attewell, James Bartle, Alun Bollinger, Graeme Cowley, Stuart Dryburgh, Donald Duncan, Allen Guilford, Kevin Hayward, Murray Milne, Leon Narbey, Simon Raby and John Toon.

Film professionals share advice of their creative and practical experiences shooting both on digital and film forms. The Fil...
Sixties British Cinema Reconsidered
Challenging assumptions around Sixties stardom, the book focuses on creative collaboration and the contribution of production personnel beyond the director, and discusses how cultural change is reflected in both film style and cinematic themes.
Hyksos and Israelite Cities
This is a history of Ancient Egyptian and Israelite sites. From the intro: "This volume marks a new departure in the course of British excavations in Egypt. Hitherto the Egyptian Research Account has been a small resource for the promotion of the work of students; and, as such, it has enabled several to obtain that footing in the subject from which they have gone on to more important positions. It has been for eleven years a basis for the new men who have been entering upon work in Egypt. Now it has been largely expanded, and with the support of most of the British authorities in archaeology and history, it has taken the more permanent position of the British School of Archaeology in Egypt. ...

Educating Film-Makers is the first book to examine the history, impact and significance of film education in Britain, Europe and the United States.

Contemporary Scottish Fictions
"The last 20 years have witnessed an unprecedented flourishing of cultural expression in Scotland, regarded by some as a response to a growing sense of political disenfranchisement.

"This book is aimed at a wide readership of students and academics in Scottish Studies, Literary Studies, Film and TV Studies, as well as the general reader with an interest in contemporary Scottish culture."--BOOK JACKET.
