Something different. A crowd gathering, chattering, at the Pollack Cinema in Tempe. Not your regular AYC club meeting, but a movie night and a film celebrating the outstanding career of Harry “Buddy” Melges (pronounced with a hard “g,” not a “j” sound), not that he seemed to care as long as his name was on the top line of the race results.
The film is Melges: The Wizard of Zenda, produced and written by Mark Honer, incorporating interviews with Buddy’s victims, friends, and colleagues, notably Gary Jobson and Bill Koch and Buddy himself. Koch’s 1992 America’s Cup campaign was a thread woven through the film, a kind of soap opera drama led by the wealthy Koch with utter determination to win at all costs (at least $70 million, he says). As the film describes, Koch wanted to drive the boat even though he’d hired some of the best sailors in the U.S., including Buddy. Eventually, a 62-year-old Buddy wins out and does most of the driving as the team takes the defender series over Dennis Conner and then sweeps up the Cup from a Paul Cayard-led Italian team.
Some 72 AYC members, Lake Pleasant members, and visitors sat back in the leather viewing seats on Thursday, August 10, to take in the 90-minute documentary, applauding at the finish.
The producer of the film took an interesting approach to distributing it. Instead of trying to get into theaters or streaming services, he’s renting it out to yacht clubs. The results have been impressive, with showings from sailing meccas such as Newport to desert outposts in Tucson and Phoenix.
Buddy Melges died in May of this year at 93, but his inspirational story will continue to celebrate his life. We’re proud to be part of it.


Anthony Horowitz is perhaps the busiest writer in England. He has been writing since the age of eight, and professionally since the age of twenty. He writes in a comfortable shed in his garden for up to ten hours per day. In addition to the highly successful Alex Rider books, he has also written episodes of several popular TV crime series, including Poirot, Murder in Mind, Midsomer Murders and Murder Most Horrid. He has written a television series Foyle's War, which recently aired in the United States, and he has written the libretto of a Broadway musical adapted from Dr. Seuss's book, The 5,000 Fingers of Dr. T. His film script The Gathering has just finished production. And&oh yes&there are more Alex Rider novels in the works. Anthony has also written the Diamond Brothers series.


Gemma & James had such an amazing wedding and it was great fun for us to be there filming their day for them. We had never been to Stoneyhurst college before and we couldn’t believe just how beautiful it was. The day went so well and I am so pleased with how the film turned out.
Simply put, Amy and Stuart rock. They are such nice couple and their wedding day was amazing. It was a real honour to be there filming for them and I am so pleased to hear how happy they are with the film. Good luck with everything guys, Tom 🙂
Well, what a year! We were lucky to again get the opportunity to travel all over the country to film some amazing weddings. I some how even found time to get married myself- Thanks to Laura for making this easily the best day of my life! A SUPER- HUGE thank you to all the brilliant suppliers and venues who we continued to work with- you know who you are, and you all rock!! 🙂
Marcelle & Chris had a stunning winter wedding and we were lucky enough to be there to film it. We are so pleased with the outcome of the film and wish the happy couple all the best in their new future together 🙂
Kirsty and Dean are about as nice a couple as you could possibly meet and so clearly perfect for each other! It was a great priveldge to be asked to film their wedding and we had great fun doing it too. 🙂


In Cuba, the government has long used journalism as a tool of propaganda – and for that, until recently, it has been largely unapologetic. Following the revolution, the role of the news media was envisioned as one of education and garnering mass support for the Cuban political project.
The Cuban film industry is a different story. Cuban film directors can get away with showing things that journalists cannot, sometimes providing critical reflection on the contradictions in Cuban social reality.
Subjects like education, health, gender, sexuality, worker’s rights, state bureaucracy have been recurring themes – and sometimes even the Cuban news media itself. And usually, although contemporary economic realities have recently forced filmmakers to look abroad for funding, Cuban cinema is funded by the very same state that it criticises.

Choking on Marlon Brando is the story of a young female film critic's love-life is affected and nearly ruined by her obsession with male movie stars. As her increasingly hapless hunt for the right man unfolds and her television and newspaper career unravels, our heroine finally begins to understand that difficult truth: that life is not like the movies. Entwined within the narrative of her real-life love affairs is a kaleidoscope of digressions on great screen actors--her early obsession with Brando, her later dream-life with Gerard Depardieu, a personal ad seeking out Tom Cruise, a disastrous climactic encounter with Jeff Bridges. It's a helter-skelter ride through love and the movies which reads like a screwball comedy. But our heroine is no screwball; she seems to know everything about movies and the human heart, and painfully little about anything else. Written in a fresh and utterly engaging voice, Choking on Marlon Brando is moving and hilarious, a bittersweet and endearing story of a woman who can't draw the line between her live life and the art she loves.

This week, we’re indulging in some light-hearted trivia, taking a look at body builders who got into Acting, and enjoyed some success.
These individuals display a real passion of the art of keeping in good shape and knowing that they managed to excel in a different field with the help of their good looking body, is an inspiration to us, and hopefully to you too.
1) Steve Reeves:
Reeves developed his interest in body building in high school but his early adult life was interrupted by world war 2, during which time he served as a soldier in Philippines.
After the war, Reeves went on to study acting while competing in body building competitions. It was his acting career that took off, even though his first love was body building.
Reeves acted in no less than 17 films, before retiring. And even in his retirement, he pursued his love for body building, by publishing the books “Building the Classic Physique - The Natural Way”, and “Dynamic Muscle Building”.
2) Ralf Moeller
German born American actor, Moeller, was a champion competitive body builder best know for his roles in Brick Bardo in Cyborg, Kjartan in The Viking Sagas, Conan the Adventurer, Hagen in Gladiator, Thorak in The Scorpion King and Ulfar in Pathfinder.
3) Lou Ferrigno
As a body builder, Ferrigno won an IFBB Mr. America title and two consecutive IFBB Mr. Universe titles, and even featured in the bodybuilding documentary “Pumping Iron”. Ferrigno cited Hercules star Steve Reeves as his idol, and claimed to be a star of the movie too, a movie that he himself later went on to be the leading character in.
Another interesting fact is that Ferrigno used to train with Arnold Schwarzenegger and they used to compete together. In fact, in his documentary “Pumping Iron”, Ferrigno shed light on 1975 IFBB Mr. Universe and Mr. Olympia competitions and his battle for the chamionships against Schwarzenegger.
4) Arnold Schwarzenegger
Schwarzengger’s career in body building started when he was 15. By 20, he won his first title, “Mr. Universe”. He won this title a total of 7 times! Schwarzenegger even went on to compete in the Olympics for weightlifting!
In the movie industry, Schwarzenegger met with equal success, staring in the hugely popular “The Terminator”, 1984. In total, Schwarzenegger has made more than 20 films to date.
In 2003, Schwarzenegger replaced the then governor of California Grayy Davis, lasting for just 2 years. Schwarzenegger got back into politics again in 2006.
On the Asia front, we’ve even got Bolo Yeung!
Trained in body building and martial arts, Yeung was successful both as a competitive body builder, having won and held on to the title of Mr. Hong Kong for ten years, and having starred in Bruce Lee’s film Enter the Dragon, and the American production Bloodspot, which became a box office hit.
These men display a tenacity to pursue their passion and dreams, and the success they can achieve with using their bodies are truly admirable.


Today is Day 27 of the March Slice of Life – the daily writing challenge hosted at “Two Writing Teachers”.
Last night we went to see the musical “Wizard of Oz” with my husband’s two daughters and granddaughter. What an amazing show – LOVED it! It was well acted, the songs were wonderful, with gorgeous sets. We had fantastic seats as well – third row!
Knowing this story so well, it was a treat to see and hear the famous scenes and songs.
Dorothy was played by A.J. Bridel, who turned just 21 yesterday. The audience even sang happy birthday to her when she gave her bows at the end. There was a long standing ovation at the end. A special treat was having Dorothy, Glinda and the witch come out after the performance and let people have their pictures with the. Our granddaughter got a group shot – she was excited!
The Dunfield is the new theatre in our city and it has already presented some incredible shows – Les Mis. (my favourit), Peter Pan, Little Mermaid, and lots of others. We will be attending a number of shows this year. Can’t Wait!


Dress of Fire by Nina Kethevan, Director Ioan Ardelean
13th Repertory Theatre New York
"Director Ioan Ardelean’s staging consists of a thrilling series of tableaus precisely choreographed movement sequences and well-acted exchanges that are all optically arresting. Mr. Ardelean talents are most evident in perfectly maneuvering the large cast on the tight playing area. Ardelean’s cumulative achievements strive to bring clarity to this complicated saga."

"14 Little Red Huts, a dramatic look at Soviet policy in the early 20th century that led to the deaths of nearly 15 million people. Ioan Ardelean, a Romanian actor, and professor who grew up under the old regime, directs."
BWW News Desk, Nov. 18, 2017
"Perhaps the performance of the American theatre will inspire Russian viewers to study the creativity and biography Andrei Platonov."
"How to remain human, when social ties are broken, when every hour, every minute you need to fight for your own life and how to serve the common cause - this is what the Medicine Show Theatre Ensemble actors investigated."

The Telegram Solo Festival NYC / Prague Festival
"The Telegram is a one-man show about an out-of-work actor who’s waiting for a telegram to arrive and let him know if he’s gotten a job in New York or not. Ioan Ardelean plays Tudor and there are no words to say how brilliant this actor is.
This show will take one man and he’ll be twenty. Moments on stage will make you cry with laughter, others will just make you cry. Everything about the idea is simple, one man in one room waiting for a telegram, and yet it’s so captivating. You’ll never be bored waiting for this Telegram."
May 31st, 2016 Prague / Fringe Festival Review by Cady
More - Cino Theatre, NYC
."..Worlds collide when... Tormod (Ioan Ardelean) and Linn (Alexandra Cohen) arrive, brilliantly conceived as histrionic, vaudeville-inspired circus performers in stripes and sequins."
Mathew Wexler, November 17, 2013
"Also in the mix are the media, represented by two dancing, menacing, Cabaret-style clowns, Linn and Tormod (the very entertaining Alexandra Cohen and Ioan Ardelean, respectively)."
Dmitry Zvonkov, November 13, 2013
"In a switcheroo of tone, Linn (Alexandra Cohen) and Tormod (Ioan Ardelean) hop gleefully on stage, dressed like Marcel Marceau's children... They are the bloggers who report and speculate juicy news, their clownish costumes illustrating the playwright's opinion of gossip rags and entertainment TV."
Elise Marenson, Nov 18, 2013
.".. two television reporters/media personalities, gloriously portrayed by Alexandra Cohen and Ion Ardelean."
Howard ("Prof") Miller November 20, 2013
Heineken, The Guest of Honor, LEGS MEDIA New York / Los Angeles
The Last Godot North Theatre Satu-Mare, Romania
"Torn between pain and desperate desire for fulfillment Ioan's character reaches a paroxysmal state."
Vasile Savinescu, January 27, 2003
Of the Carnival, North Theatre Satu-Mare, Romania
"Ioan Ardelean, reconfirm the talent I have appreciated in Peter and I praised in Romeo and Juliet. His character speaks, chatters, deceives, and robs. He is coarse, crass, and comprised of satisfaction when he can make fun of stupid, foolishness. Ioan's performance touches electrifying odds."
Mircea Morariu, April 18, 1999

Lessons from a world premiere at Cinequest 2017
It had been a few months since finishing my new short film ‘Tiphany’, a short documentary/ visual poem about a wonderful woman and fitness model by the name of Tiphany Adams. I had inquired about the film going to Cinequest but hadn’t expected to hear anything back in weeks.
One morning, I woke up to an email saying the film was invited to have it’s World Premiere at Cinequest 2017! I was floored- and then panicked to realize just how much work I needed to do over the next few months to prepare for the experience. After doing some research about Cinequest and film festivals for short films, I was startled by not fully knowing what to expect.
Like most filmmakers, I’m an avid reader of filmmaking blogs and articles- I like to know what I’m going into before diving into something. So just as there have been so many resourceful articles out there, I thought I’d pay it forward and try to share some tidbits and insights I gleaned from my experience at Cinequest 2017 with my short film “Tiphany”.
Community > Corporate
It was a difficult road to get a chance to be at a festival like Cinequest. It’s unique in that it prides itself on hosting a premiere status for it's instead of ‘cherry picking’ from the Sundance crop. This means smaller, intimate and edgier films with heart and a little eclectic types of films. Interestingly, Cinequest is also an Oscar qualifying festival which means there’s a slight possibility to circumvent larger festivals as a window to the Oscars, especially for shorts. It was so refreshing to be among avid film lovers, a large film community that started as a grassroots movement and grew to a pillar of the Silicon Valley calendar. Some larger festivals feel rather corporate and for ‘the masses’, so it was nice to feel part of a thriving community and just talk about film.
Have good collaborators
I was lucky to be friends with professional photographer Kai York who assembled the team for our film. We didn’t know what the film would be at those early stages, but we mainly had long discussions around the idea of beauty and balancing authenticity, delicacy and strength. He introduced me to Tiphany, and to his credit his insights on knowing this would be a good story is a valuable skill as a producer. Tiphany is a celebrity in her own right and a wonderfully talented woman. Without each of us equally contributing our best to the project, this film would have never been made. Being at the festival and leveraging 3 key collaborators instead of myself was a team effort, and accelerated it’s success. I’ve learned there’s benefits in finding your VIP collaborators and sticking with them like a band.
Have the confidence in how you tell your story
The most interesting shorts I screened while at Cinequest, were the ones with both interesting stories and a unique and interesting way to tell that story. I was mentored early on that it’s always a good approach to start with documentary films even if you want to make narrative films. Being able to focus on character and the language of telling a story in the edit has been invaluable and also becomes almost like muscle memory.
A Film needs a soul
At festivals like Cinequest, your film doesn’t have to be expensive, but it does have to emotionally connect with the audience. Most of the feature films I watched ranged from around 40k to just under $1million. This is the perfect price point for a budding filmmaker to have enough creative constraints with low expectations to make something unique, emotionally fine-tuned and unique. With online distributors like Netflix and Amazon purchasing more films, the emotionally engaging films are the ones that end up on the platform.
Don’t undersell the real budget of your film!
Sweat equity is valuable and should be accounted for when scoping the budget. Our hard costs for Tiphany were pretty modest- the flight to Vegas, the Airbnb, the lens and equipment rental. But the time put in between both myself and Kai shouldn’t be ignored. Our usual day rates for shooting, scoping out editing costs, VO rental costs, colour correction and sound, marketing and promotion are all costs we absorbed or had for soft expenses. These should be factored in when pitching a budget. It’s not valuable to undersell yourself or your film and come across as the ‘cheap’ or ‘low budget’ filmmakers because distributors will undersell you too.
Boots on the ground, Postcards in hand.
There are two components of being in a film festival, the physical and the promotional. Being physically at the festival, the strongest way to build buzz and word of mouth is to hit the parties, screenings, sidewalks and meet people. Postcards are a great way to introduce your film, and tease the visual aesthetic. I made sure to include my screening times, screening block, and email so whoever I gave it to had everything they needed. Vista print seems to be the best price as long as you can afford the few days. The quicker the turn around, the more expensive it will be.
Film Festivals are kinda like the Circus
The Maverick Spirit award was given to Jason Reitman for his career in Writing and Directing, he’s a natural storyteller and among his treasure trove of stories, his most interesting insight was how he talked about film world. He said the film industry is just like the circus, and the type of people that attracts are kind of like circus folks. It’s full of the rebels, the misfits, the artists, the hippies and vagabonds, the folks who like to lift the human spirit. To entertain and to be entertained. So act accordingly!
We had a blast and are continuing on the festival circuit with “Tiphany”. Follow me on instagram @justinferrato for updates on the film or if you’d like to get in touch. You can check out the website or join us on Facebook for more information as well!

The distance between Philadelphia and Wyoming is 1,835 miles. The distance between a mother and daughter is further away and closer than that. Teatro Vista and Rivendell Theatre Ensemble present the Midwest premiere of 26 Miles by Tony-Award winning playwright Quiara Alegria Hudes. Quirky teenager Olivia runs away from her dad’s house. She is assisted in the escape by her mother. After throwing up fifteen times, Olivia is desperate for someone to care. She calls her biological mother, Beatriz, who had given up custody and visitation rights eight years earlier. In fact, according to Olivia’s journal log, Beatriz hasn’t spoken to her daughter in five months. A spontaneous road trip to see buffalo becomes a journey of self-realization for mother and daughter. With a jamming 80’s soundtrack, 26 Miles is a trip of discovery that takes some surprising turns.

We had our annual cousin Star Wars night this evening. Every year for the last few years my cousin and her family have given me and the kids tickets as our Christmas present and we all go together to IMAX. Our almost adult boys have been playing, enjoying, and loving Star Wars since they were in diapers.
I won’t spoil it, but I thought it was a really funny movie.
The take away line for me was this:
I’ve been working in that direction but it’s time to eradicate the evil force from our lives.
Cousin time. Star Wars time. Happiness time.

Matthew Perry, one of the stars of smash hit TV sitcom "Friends," has been found dead at his home, US media reported. He was 54.
Law enforcement sources told the Los Angeles Times that Perry was found unresponsive in a hot tub at his Los Angeles home on Saturday.
The LA Times and TMZ, which first reported the news, both said there were no signs of foul play, citing anonymous sources.
Perry's 10 seasons on "Friends" made him one of Hollywood's most recogniSable actors, starring opposite Jennifer Aniston, Courteney Cox, Matt LeBlanc, Lisa Kudrow and David Schwimmer as a friend group in New York.
As Chandler, he played a sarcastic yet insecure and neurotic roommate of Joey and Ross, played by LeBlanc and Schwimmer respectively.
By the series' end, Chandler is married to Cox's Monica and they have a family, reflecting the journey of the core cast from single New Yorkers to married and starting families.
The series was one of television's biggest hits and has taken on a new life — and found surprising popularity with younger fans — in recent years on streaming services.
The series ran from 1994 until 2004.
A reunion special in 2021 was hosted by James Corden and fed into huge interest in seeing the cast together again, although the HBO Max reunion was the actors discussing the show and not a continuation of their characters' storylines.
Perry received one Emmy nomination for his "Friends" role and two more for appearances as an associate White House counsel on "The West Wing."
Perry also had several notable film roles, starring opposite Salma Hayek in the rom-com "Fools Rush In" and opposite Bruce Willis in the the crime comedy "The Whole Nine Yards."


It’s always a sad thing to hear of the passing of an artist whose work has made a lasting impression.
It seems that every year more and more names shuffle off this mortal coil, leaving us with our own perceptions of their public face, but more so the faces of the roles they played.
This morning I found out that British actor Nigel Terry passed away at the age of 69.
Many people might not know Nigel Terry at first mention. He was not necessarily a Titan of the big screen. However, he did appear in a few historical/fantasy dramas, most notably John Boorman’s 1981 film Excalibur.
I used to devour all things Arthurian, and it still is my favourite realm to visit, whether of history, literature, or archaeology.
Excalibur, based on Sir Thomas Malory’s Morte D’Arthur, will always be one of those movies that made a lasting impression upon me. The film brought to life the magic and mystery of the Arthurian legend like nothing else. It explored the nature of the king’s relationship to the land he is bound to protect, and took you on the quest with the Knights of the Round Table, from their courageous departure to find the Holy Grail, to depths of madness, despair, and pain, to the glorious attainment of the Grail, and the final confrontation at the Battle of Camlann.
Nigel Terry’s Arthur was of a different sort – naïve, daring, stern, trusting, brave, flawed, honourable. Whenever I imagine an historical Arthur in my head, it is often Nigel Terry’s face that appears.
If you have never seen the movie Excalibur, and you like Arthuriana, then you should definitely watch this movie. While you’re at it, see how many famous actors’ young faces you can spot in the cast about Nigel Terry.
Most of Nigel Terry’s work was done on stage, but I will forever remember him in historical films. Apart from Excalibur, he was also in the wonderful screen adaptation of the play, The Lion in Winter.
When it comes to medieval history, the 12th century has always been my favourite period, and the Plantagenets the family to watch. In The Lion in Winter, Nigel Terry plays a young Prince John, son of Henry II (Peter O’Toole) and Eleanor of Aquitaine (Katherine Hepburn), and brother to Richard Lionheart (Anthony Hopkins). You will also see a young Timothy Dalton as the French King, Phillip.

This story is set at Chinon, in France, where the royal family has assembled for Christmas court and a battle of wills and verbal sparring that is really second to none. And the young Nigel Terry certainly holds his own next to the greats of the acting world.
During the 1990’s, there was an often forgotten television series called Covington Cross, in which Nigel Terry portrayed a widower knight who is trying to keep his three sons, and a willful daughter, safe from their enemies at court. Though not acclaimed in any way, I loved this show because it was a fun medieval romp, complete with drama, laughs, and of course, sword fighting. Who doesn’t like that? I was beginning my medieval studies at that time and this show with Nigel Terry at the helm, was just what I wanted to fan the spark of my interest in history, a spark which eventually turned into a full-on blaze.

One of the last things I saw Nigel Terry in was the movie Troy, where he was re-united with Peter O’Toole who played King Priam.
Nigel Terry played the high priest of Apollo in Troy, and though he did not have a major role, you were drawn to his strong screen presence, despite the heavy hitters all around him.

That’s the thing with historical dramatizations – there always seem to be regulars in the cast, people whom you picture more in period dress than in modernity’s garb.
It was always a comfort to me when Nigel Terry’s face showed up, as if I knew that I was going to experience good historical drama with some solid acting, even if it was only while he was on screen.
Now my mind floats back to the end of Excalibur where I will forever remember Nigel Terry as Arthur, grievously wounded on the deck of a solemn barge, and guarded by the three ladies of Avalon as he is carried to the sacred Isle until needed again someday.

Of course, Nigel Terry had countless more acting credits to his name than the four I have mentioned. These are but my personal favourites.
Here’s to yet another fallen prince of stage and screen. He won’t be the last, but he will be remembered, armour shining and sword in hand.


Here’s my list of the Best Johnny Depp Movies. Many may disagree, since Depp now has so many movies from his career, but in my opinion these are the best Johnny Depp movies:
Edward Scissorhands The movie that really launched Depp’s career. The message is clear and wonderfully inventive, a great parable about the alienation of the different and misunderstood.
What’s Eating Gilbert Grape Great movie about caring for misfits and fun to see Leonardo DiCaprio before he became the bee’s knees. One of the best Johnny Depp movies.
Donnie Brasco This movie just exemplifies the coolness of Depp. He definitely did not have as many lines as Al Pacino who was talking constantly, but had a strong presence.
Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas The critics did not love this movie but it is so strange and wonderfully visual it became an instant cult classic. If it turns into a cult classic it has to go on the list
Blow One of those ultra cool movies where maybe the acting is not terrific, but such a fun story to follow. The critics did not love this one either, but got great reviews from the audience.
Pirates of the Caribbean – The Curse of the Black Pearl The first Pirates movie and I think the best, they should have either stopped making these after this one or spend a little more time to make them better.
Charlie and the Chocolate Factory I love Johnny Depp in this movie. just a super strange character and Depp seems the perfect person to play it. In many ways it is better than the original. Director Tim Burton adds his usual signature strangeness to the film.
Sweeney Todd: The Demon Barber of Fleet Street One of the only musicals I have ever liked, and that is saying a lot.

We explain what a play is, its origin, characteristics and elements that make it up. Also, theatrical genres.
The plays are very varied in theme, structure, scenery and language.
What is a play?
A work of theater, theatrical work or theatrical piece is an artistic representation, registered both at the performing arts as well as the literary ones, which consists of the staging of different fictional situations, through actors, sets and different scenic elements, according to what is established in a script or text dramatic.
Just as in the making of a film, a variable number of people intervene in a theatrical work, dedicated to different aspects of the staging (mainly technical and artistic). The result of their actions, the work itself, is exhibited to an audience for a season.
Similarly, a theatrical work usually has two types of artistic authorship: that of the playwright, who is the author of the theatrical text, who composed the script and may or may not take part in its stage performance; and the theater director, author of the staging (often called “montage”), who makes the stage decisions and can also intervene in the dramaturgical text when necessary.
The plays can be very varied in theme, structure, language literary and scenography: some are more conventional, and in them the story is more recognizable, and others more avant-garde or experimental. In fact, throughout its vast history From its classical origins to today, the theatrical genre has accompanied the humanity in its most important changes, serving as a mirror in which the society she can look at herself.
Characteristics of a play
The space of a play changes according to the time and culture.
Broadly speaking, a play is characterized by:
- It takes place in a certain environment called a dramatic space: a theatrical stage, a stage, even the street itself, as long as there is an attending audience and a theatrical space where the performance takes place.
- It has a certain duration, generally no more than a couple of hours, but it depends on the scenic proposal. In the Antiquity, the theatrical works could last a whole day of representation.
- It involves a combination of artistic genres: the literature (in dramatic text) and the performing arts (in representation). In addition, you can use other scenic expressions such as singing, music, dancing, etc.
- Generally represents a story through actions and dialogues, so that the viewer can witness what happens. There is usually no narrator, and if there is, it usually operates as a character more of the piece.
Origin of a play
Theater is an extremely ancient artistic genre: its origins go back to the Ancient Greece (4th century BC). Greek society used it as an instrument of education civic and transmission of its extensive mythology. Its actors used masks that represented each character, as well as stilts and other scenic elements.
There were great Greek playwrights both in the genre of comedy (like Aristophanes) or the tragedy, considered a major art, like Sophocles, Euripides and Aeschylus. Many of his works are still performed today.
Elements of a play
The scenery of a play is not always realistic.
The elements that make up a theatrical piece are:
- Characters, played by actors, who can wear specific clothing, use certain forms of speaks, and so on. The characters interact with each other through actions and through dialogue.
- Scenario, which is the physical space in which the performance takes place, and along which the actors wander, “entering” and “exiting” the stage as they enter or disappear from the stage. This stage can have different forms, and can even be in public present in it.
- Scenography and props, better known as "scenic elements", are those objects that favor the scenic representation, serving as scenery or fulfilling certain roles in the story, such as swords, glasses, tables, etc.In many representations they are dispensed with, and simply imagined, evoking them through dialogue and actions.
- Theatrical text, which is not present on the scene, but has been learned by the actors. It specifies the dialogues, actions and changes of scenery.
- Tragedy. One of the oldest genres in the history of the theater, its stories usually consist of unresolvable and painful situations, generally of the fall from grace of an illustrious hero or heroine, by the work of implacable destiny.
- Comedy. The counterpart of the tragedy, also of ancient origin, focuses on the satirical representation of the characters, in such a way that their actions invite the audience to laughter or joy.
- Tragicomedy. The combination of comedy and tragedy, in which there is room for both: suffering and laughter, both of which increase as the story progresses, until reaching an emotional climax that leads to the denouement.
- Farce. A short type of work, with cartoonish characters and situations that are not too realistic, but that may have a satirical or critical intention, that is, to denounce society. In it, the viewer is not always moved to laughter, but also to shame.
- Melodrama. It is a type of dramatic work in whose plot the tragic or pathetic feelings evoked in the viewer are highlighted through the use of music. It is, if you will, the artistic precursor of the telenovela, and that is why it is often called "melodramas" to this type of television productions.

Film historians disagree on who invented the first movie camera – Louis Le Prince, who made a short film in 1888 and then disappeared before he could exhibit his new invention? Thomas Edison, who allegedly stole credit for an employee’s invention in 1892? But one thing is certain: “moving pictures” radically changed the face of entertainment worldwide. By 1914, technical developments had brought movies from short clips of only a few minutes to compelling narratives lasting an hour or more. Audiences flocked to “dream palaces” to be immersed in romance, comedy, suspense, and adventure on the silver screen. But few understood how exactly these “dreams” got there.
In Moving Pictures: How They Are Made and Worked (1914), author Frederick A. Talbot explains to a general audience the technical aspects of film-making as then known. Talbot wrote a number of similar books on railways, lighthouses, airplanes, and “waste reclamation” (an early term for recycling). He also followed his Moving Pictures book with one on cinematography for amateurs.
Moving Pictures begins with a lengthy history of “animated photography” that, not surprisingly, omits the vanished Le Prince and mainly focuses on Edison, who was not just a talented inventor but also a very shrewd businessman. The book also duly credits the Lumière Brothers, Robert Paul, George Eastman, and others with important advances in camera, film, and projection processes.
Talbot’s book is chock full of photos of devices, laboratories, studios, and film sets. We learn how celluloid – the old, flammable, perishable medium for film – was made from a chemical soup known as “dope.” There are chapters on how perforated film was developed to move film through the camera quickly, how film cameras worked, how film was developed, and how moving images were projected onto a screen. He explores the technical aspects of filming major events and natural processes, the creation of what were later called newsreels, and even the possibility of home movies.
We also learn how films were staged in the studio. Talbot tells us that Edison’s tiny “Black Maria,” built in 1892 and believed to be the world’s first film studio, had become a gigantic glass building by 1914, with a 2,400-square-foot stage and a 130,000-gallon water tank for “aquatic spectacles.” But film producers without such resources also knew how to answer when opportunity knocked. Talbot recounts how one producer, hearing of a huge fire in a Los Angeles department store, sped a film crew to the scene. They somehow persuaded the fire department to let the lead actor, costumed as a fireman, rush into the still-burning building to “rescue” an actress who was set in an upper window screaming for help. “The players ran great risks,” says Talbot, “but the film producer was satisfied.”
Talbot also pointed out the special problems presented by narrative films. We may find the exaggerated expressions and gestures of silent movies laughably quaint today, but the primitive medium of the time made them vitally necessary, as Talbot explains:
The stage management of a play before the celluloid film is far more exacting than the staging of a play behind the footlights. . . . The picture play is essentially pantomime and the camera is a searching, unequivocal critic. It produces a stern, matter-of-fact representation of what is enacted before it. There is no dialogue to conceal blemishes, or mitigate the deficiencies of the actors and actresses. Words have to be converted into action and gestures.
Although “talking pictures” were still 13 years in the future, Talbot has a chapter on early attempts to make sound films. But he didn’t think much of them. “[U]ntil the peculiar nasal sound is eliminated from the talking machine it will not prove popular. . . . [T]he majority of picture-theatre lovers, after the first wave of excitement and curiosity, will patronise those establishments where they can see movement alone.” One wonders what he would have made of today’s ultra-realistic Dolby sound systems. Talbot also bemoans the failure of attempts to make true-color films, which had begun as early as the 19th Century.
The six chapters on trick cinematography are especially fascinating, showing how early filmmakers thought outside the box to enthrall audiences with special effects – all created without the aid of a computer. Stop-motion photography, double-exposure, miniature models, invisible wires, and other devices, some still in use today, were all invented at this period. Camera tricks to make people look gigantic or tiny – in the 21st Century used to very great effect in Peter Jackson’s The Lord of the Rings films – also dated from this time. One interesting, if sad, example of a film trick known as “stop and substitution” involved a real-life “legless cripple,” as Talbot calls him, who was paid to be a stunt-double in a French film about a car accident. A character played by the lead actor gets his legs severed by a car. The legless double, with fake severed legs, substitutes for the actor. The legs are then miraculously reattached by a passing doctor, the actor now substituting for the double. Talbot surmised, “Probably the unfortunate had never before found his misfortune so profitable to him.”
Film preservation was of great concern to Talbot, but he was fatalistic about it because of
the perishable character of the celluloid film, and also of the photographic image upon the emulsion. Both would deteriorate, even if preserved in hermetically sealed cases, with the flight of time, and the chances are if a film were held for one hundred years that it would be found useless when opened at the end of that period.
He also feared that, because celluloid was so flammable, “The end is tragic: the film slips from sight in flame and smoke.” His fears were not unfounded. The Library of Congress estimates that some 75% of American silent films have been “completely lost to time and neglect.”
Talbot stays entirely on-topic in his discussion of the technical side of movie-making. You won’t find gossipy references to the top movie stars of the day, like Mary Pickford. But you will marvel at how early filmmakers developed the very equipment and techniques that still keep us entertained over a century later.
