Description: |
A collection of essays on television authorship. Rather than assigning one author to individual television texts, the contributors probe the relationship between the various authors at work within the institutional, cultural and economic settings that characterize the television industry. |
Synopsis: |
Part of Praeger's Media and Society Series, this contributed volume is the only collection of essays on television authorship. It includes work of some of the most prominent scholars in television studies. Rather than assigning one author to individual television texts, the contributors probe the relationship between the various authors at work within the institutional, cultural, and economic settings that characterize the television industry. This book analyzes and defines the unique methods of television authorship and suggests numerous candidates for authorial accountability allowing the medium to enter the realm of contemporary criticism. The first part of the volume provides a case study in four chapters on authorship issues surrounding Frank's Place, the short lived but compelling situation comedy. This is followed by three chapters focusing on issues of authorship in international television. The book then probes the studio's role as author, including essays on Warner Brothers, Desilu, and Screen Gems.Finally the contributors examine individual TV authors and cover such topics as point of view in music video, television production as collective action, and unconventional television. |
