Hard, Fast, and Brokerage: Irving H. Levin, the Filmakers, and the Birth of Conglomerate Hollywood
2021
This article examines the relationship between business and artistic innovation in shaping vertical integration practices in post-Paramount Hollywood. I examine the career of Irving H. Levin, who shaped Ida Lupino's independent film company by financing her films through guarantee contracts with exhibitors. Levin continually transformed exhibition companies, most notably National General Corporation, to finance and distribute independent films despite the antitrust limitations imposed by the Paramount consent decrees. By persuading the industry and courts to allow for antitrust exemptions based on economic precarity, he set a precedent for the return of vertical integration by the 1980s.

Letters of Ford Madox Ford
2015,2016
Most of these letters are 'finds,' never previously published and serving to deepen and to give order to our awareness of Ford's literary activities and involvements. Professor Ludwig, with lucidity, exactness and wisdom, has provided us with a coherent personal documentation.
Originally published in 1965.

Accounting for Sustainability
2010
If businesses and other organizations are to meet the many and complex challenges of sustainable development, then they all, both public and private, need to embed sustainability considerations into their decision-making and reporting. However, the translation of this aspiration into effective action is often inhibited by the lack of systems and procedures that take sustainability into account.
Accounting for Sustainability: Practical Insights will help organizations to address these issues. The book sets out a number of tools and approaches that have been developed and applied by leading organizations to:
embed sustainability into decision-making, extending beyond an organization's boundaries to take into account suppliers, customers and other stakeholders;
measure and link sustainability and financial performance;
integrate sustainability into 'mainstream' reporting, both to management and external stakeholders.
In-depth cases studies from Aviva, BT, the Environment Agency, EDF Energy, HSBC, Novo Nordisk, Sainsbury's and West Sussex County Council show in detail how accounting for sustainability works in practice in a wide range of organizational contexts.

Out of the Shadows: The Impact of the First World War on the Status of Studio Cameramen in France
2010
Toward the end of the First World War, film magazines began to identify cameramen as artist-creators, and as the new right-hand men of film directors. Their gradual emergence from anonymity testifies to this new and improved status, which contrasts with the scant recognition accorded to cameramen prior to the conflict. In the course of four years of war, the way in which film-studio cameramen were perceived underwent a profound change. This article examines the details of this progressive transformation, culminating in 1918 when the name of a cameraman, Léonce-Henry Burel, first appeared in the credits of a French film (Abel Gance'sLa Dixième Symphonie).

United Kingdom : Durkan calls action for two new Pounds 14 million film studios
2014
Environment Minister Mark H Durkan has announced planning approval for two new film studios in the Titanic Quarter. At an estimated cost of Pounds 14 million, the extension of Belfast film studios where popular fantasy drama Game of Thrones is shot, will provide an additional 100,000 square feet of facilities. These will almost double the existing production space at Titanic Studios, which incorporates Harland and Wolff shipyard's former Paint Hall building.

When Research Needs Another Name
2006
However, in the UK, this shift led to the awarding of government funds (based on quantifying and applying research criteria) to universities, which in turn, led to the creation of PhD programs in studio art.1 The issues underlying the legitimacy of such programs and degrees provided some of the underlying structure for much of the Sensuous Knowledge discourse. Using a depth sounder, one could view this underwater sculpture, dependent upon the vagaries of currents.2 The final plenary presentation was by professor Ken Fricdman of the Norwegian School of Management, who flew through a PowerPoint discussion entitled, \"Theoretical and Philosophical Challenges in Artistic Research and Development,\" in which he positioned a number of theories that attempted to link theory with research.

Netflix show creator's £500M UK studio project seeks big investors
2019
The southern French town of Cannes, home to perhaps the most famous film festival in the world, is exactly the kind of place one would expect to see the writer of a popular Netflix Inc. series holding court. The idea, which came to him when the Brad Pitt-fronted and Knight-written movie \"Allied\" struggled to find an available U.K. studio in which to film, is close to becoming a reality, with a green light from the planning authorities and the finalization of a land deal expected soon. In a region that has been overshadowed culturally by London and the northwest cities of Manchester and Liverpool recently, despite being home to such literary heavyweights as William Shakespeare, George Eliot and D.H. Lawrence, the studio project could go some way to helping it re-establish its place in the world as a hive of creativity and progressive thinking, he said.
