Drawing on feminist critiques of Bourdieu's model of capital as well as emotional capital, it argues that these films give value to emotions and affects in convertible terms. In the process, they complicate questions of motherhood and matriarchal desire in Korean cinema, which were previously defined by familial notions of patriarchy, not in economic terms. By interiorizing the corporate chaebol structure in domestic settings, the films reimagine emotional capital as integrally related to other forms of capital.","PeriodicalId":92490,"journal":{"name":"Cinema journal","volume":"28 1","pages":"25 - 46"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"89100508","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Drawing on archival research to trace its path from its innovation in do-it-yourself amateur filmmaking circles to its diffusion in filmmaking cooperatives and universities, the article argues that optical printing represents an instance of a semiprofessional network of advanced amateurs, hobbyists, and artists repurposing a commercial technology for their own ends. In addition to shifting the avant-garde's investment in perceptual transformation from in-camera effects to post hoc manipulation of footage, optical printing became a cultural resource that avant-garde filmmakers could use to reimagine their relationship with their materials and mobilize in relation to their practice.","PeriodicalId":92490,"journal":{"name":"Cinema journal","volume":"258 1","pages":"71 - 95"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"79142822","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Based on historical evidence, this article explores the changes in Hollywood promotions when studios broadcasted these featurettes on television to market theatrical films and contracted out promotional campaigns to boutique advertising agencies. The making-of form matured in the 1960s as featurettes helped solidify some enduring conventions about the portrayal of filmmaking. Ultimately, featurettes serve as important paratexts for understanding how Hollywood's global production work was promoted during a time of industry transition.","PeriodicalId":92490,"journal":{"name":"Cinema journal","volume":"26 1","pages":"119 - 96"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"91222341","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

In particular, through films that feature nonnormative faces—especially Browning's Freaks (1932) and Chaney's Phantom of the Opera (1925)—these filmmakers pinpoint the problem of basing ethical treatment of the Other on affective identification.","PeriodicalId":92490,"journal":{"name":"Cinema journal","volume":"134 1","pages":"47 - 70"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2018-07-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"84941928","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
