How is a movie made and what exactly does a director do? This book
attempts to illuminate every circumstance, internal and external,
emotional and technical, involved in the arduous process that
culminates in what we see on the big screen.;Only the director
knows the background to the scenes, behind every passing frame of
film, and the complex series of details and decisions involved,
from budget considerations to divine inspiration, from the earliest
rehearsal to the final screening. Sidney Lumet's knowledge of the
art and craft of directing is considerable, and here he discusses
everything from art direction and wardrobe, shooting and editing,
the verbal and mechanical soundtracks, to the distribution and
marketing of a film and the role of the studio.

Covers The Sexual Language Of Strangers (fiction)
"Break Boundary" refers to the transformative point at which any
system suddenly and irrevocably changes from its original state
into something new. Coined by Kenneth E. Boulding in 1963, the term
serves as the underlying metaphor for the photographs of Jenee
Mateer. In her original works of art, the horizon that divides
land, water, and sky shifts and multiplies producing bands of
varied colors and luminosity that transform the natural landscape
into imaginative "waterscapes" and challenge our understanding of
photography. Reminiscent of the abstract paintings of Mark Rothko
and the photographic seascapes of Hiroshi Sugimoto and New Mexican
landscapes of Edward Weston, Mateer's images are layered
photographs of the natural world assembled to suggest imaginary
places where light, water, land and sky coalesce into rhythmic
patterns of shimmering opalescence or luscious color. Break
Boundary features 34 of Mateer's waterscapes and also includes her
opening essay about the work and two poems by the artist, "The
World Is Water" and "The Sky Is Lemonlime," that separate the first
series of images from the second series and offer a deeper look
into the artist's thoughts about the work. In the concluding essay
by Francine Weiss, curator of the Newport Art Museum, Weiss writes:
"From surface to self, Jenee Mateer takes the viewer on a journey
from one psychological and spiritual state to another. In Mateer's
"waterscapes," the conventional or anticipated boundaries between
land, water, and sky begin to vanish; horizons multiply and join;
and the break boundary emerges.
One of our city’s most creative young artists has captured an
extraordinary view of home. During a period of rapid change in this
growing post-industrial Southern city, Kavin Bradner quietly moved
among us, his drone hovering above. He knew that rooftops tell
stories we can’t see from the ground. Waiting for just the right
light and weather conditions, Bradner reframed Spartanburg with
photographs both simple and powerful. His images illuminate
patterns below we hardly knew existed. From our parks to our
parking decks, from our freight trains to the Fr8yard, Above
Spartanburg will transform the way you look at this city.
Walter Mittelholzer (1894-1937), pioneer of aviation and co-founder
of Switzerland's legendary airline Swissair, is chiefly revered as
an accomplished aerial photographer. His spectacular views of the
Swiss Alps have been very popular ever since he began publishing
them in the 1920s. Much lesser known today are his expeditions by
plane to distant places. In his day, he proved to be a keen
marketer, selling the images he took on travels to Spitsbergen
(Svalbard today), Persia (Iran), and Abyssinia (Ethiopia) in his
self-written books, in movies, and to the press. His 1926/27
trans-Africa journey on the seaplane Switzerland from Zurich via
Alexandria to Capetown made his name known internationally, both as
an aviator and a photographer. Well respected entrepreneurs and
bankers funded Mittelholzer's undertakings, supporting his goal to
promote air travel in Switzerland. The entire Mittelholzer archive
is now held as part of ETH Bibliothek's special collections in
Zurich. This latest volume in the Pictorial Worlds series
revaluates Mittelholzer's media activity from today's perspective.
It features some 200 of his outstanding photographs. The
complementing essay looks at the patronising view of Africa and its
people and cultures the aviator-photographer maintained and
provides an account of the colonialist backdrop of Swissair's
lift-off in 1931.
