Book Description

Americans have had a long-standing love affair with the wilderness. As cities grew and frontiers disappeared, film emerged to feed an insatiable curiosity about wildlife. The camera promised to bring us into contact with the animal world, undetected and unarmed. Yet the camera's penetration of this world has inevitably brought human artifice and technology into the picture as well. In the first major analysis of American nature films in the twentieth century, Gregg Mitman shows how our cultural values, scientific needs, and new technologies produced the images that have shaped our contemporary view of wildlife.

Like the museum and the zoo, the nature film sought to recreate the experience of unspoiled nature while appealing to a popular audience, through a blend of scientific research and commercial promotion, education and entertainment, authenticity and artifice. Travelogue-expedition films, like Teddy Roosevelt's African safari, catered to upper- and middle-class patrons who were intrigued by the exotic and entertained by the thrill of big-game hunting and collecting. The proliferation of nature movies and television shows in the 1950s, such as Disney's True-Life Adventures and Marlin Perkins's Wild Kingdom, made nature familiar and accessible to America's baby-boom generation, fostering the environmental activism of the latter part of the twentieth century. Reel Nature reveals the shifting conventions of nature films and their enormous impact on our perceptions of, and politics about, the environment.

Whether crafted to elicit thrills or to educate audiences about the real-life drama of threatened wildlife, nature films then and now reveal much about the yearnings of Americans to be both close to nature and yet distinctly apart.

Book Description

Designed as a naturalist's sketch book (with a genuine dewback hide cover) and featuring the meticulous illustrations of Star Wars' artist Terryl Whitlatch, The Wildlife of Star Wars is truly the definitive guide to the creatures of George Lucas's mega creation. With simple pen and ink, the artist captures the unusual anatomy, the extraordinary behavior, and the rainbow hues of the most interesting wildlife on Naboo, Hoth, Endor, and the other planets of Star Wars. Detailed field notes scrawled in the margins describe the mysterious graveyard of the banthas, the mating patterns of the prolific female shaaks, the skittish nature of the rontos, and how the eopies spit stomach contents when irritated. Thorough, precise, and totally entertaining, The Wildlife of Star Wars is the reference book to the nonsentient inhabitants of this galaxy. While the reader can't hear the booming thunder of the bantha stampede or smell the rancid breath of the bellowing falumpaset, he or she can observe these creatures as they exist in their strange and wonderful homes, in a galaxy far, far away.

great book for all ages.......2007-05-16

Although this is another starwars art book, it is a great book in and of itself. The artwork is amazing as well as well thought out and researched. I have shared the book with many including children who are fascinated and inspired by the animals and environments within. This book is a great buy for artists looking for inspirational work.

Good, but..........2007-05-15

This is an awesome book for Star Wars movie lovers, but I'm a completely engrossed Star Wars fan who looks on Wookieepedia, and I expected a bit more than this. It's got all the things movie-goers would love, but I just wish it had more on wildlife from other planets than what's provided. I'd have liked some Yuuzhan Vong wildlife, some Ithorian creatures, and maybe an article on tarentatek or vornskrs, fascinating as they are. It just needs a little more outside the movies.

Great book! Interesting and Inventive.......2007-01-04

I bought this book over 5 years ago when it first came out. I saw it at a local bookstore and had to have it! If you enjoy speculative zoology -- Dougal Dixon, Wayne Barlowe, "The World of Kong" (2005)-- then you will definitely want this volume. Even those who aren't Star Wars fans will appreciate the creative artwork and thought given to creating these fantastic alien environments and creatures.

Wildlife of Star Wars - Absolutely Wild!!!.......2006-05-17

If you are a true Star Wars Fan,.. this book will blow your mind!!!!! It is a must buy!!!! The information in this book about the creatures of the Star Wars Galaxy is amazning!! This book is creative, inciteful, informative and entertaining!!!! I love it!!! The only downside is that this book doesn't include the creatures from Episode II and III. I would've love to see what planets the Aklay, Reek and Nexu come from. Either way,.. I strongly recommend purchasing this book!!!

A must-read for every fan!.......2006-02-20

The Wildlife of Star Wars is a fantastic book with detailed full-color illustrations and accounts of the massice biodiversity of the Star Wars universe. From the harsh deserts of Tatooine to the dense ecosystem of the Naboo swamps, there are suprises on every page. At the back of the book is also a special section on the creatures of Alderaan, all extinct except for the thrantas of Bespin. All in all, a fantastic book, and well worth reading many times.

Book Description

You and me baby ain't nothin' but mammals So let's do it like they do on the Discovery Channel. —Bloodhound Gang It has never been easier for Americans to observe wild and exotic animals from the comfort and safety of their couches. Several cable channels—Animal Planet, the Discovery Channel, the National Geographic Channel—provide around-the-clock wildlife programming while the traditional networks regularly broadcast animal documentaries, late-night appearances by zoologists and their animal charges, and sensationalistic specials about animals attacking hapless humans. Though the ubiquity of animals on television is new, the genre of the wildlife documentary is as old as cinema itself. In Watching Wildlife, Cynthia Chris traces the history of the wildlife genre from its origins in precinematic, colonial visual culture to its contemporary status as flagship programming on global television and explores evolving beliefs about, and attitudes toward, animal subjects. Nature programming and films are consistently presented as real and unmediated reflections of nature. But in Chris's analysis of specific shows (Mutual of Omaha's Wild Kingdom and cable television's Crocodile Hunter) and film and television history (the colonial cinema, the launch of Animal Planet), she points out how—particularly in the genre's preoccupation with mating and the favoritism bestowed on certain species—documentary images of animals are and always have been about prevailing ideologies about human gender, sexuality, and race. Ultimately, Chris's sweeping and cogent account of the wildlife documentary incorporates this frequently overlooked genre into broader debates about media globalization, human-animal relations, and popular scientific discourse. Cynthia Chris is assistant professor of media culture at the City University of New York's College of Staten Island.

A pick for either nature or film studies collections........2006-10-15

There's been a nearly overwhelming amount of televised wildlife programming which has captured the hearts of American viewers, resulting in an equal number of wildlife and science titles for general interest readers - but it's important to note that until WATCHING WILDLIFE, little has been written about the connection between reality-based animal wildlife programming and viewer interests. In reality the images are selected, edited, and revised according to underlying social and cultural concepts: WATCHING WILDLIFE identifies these interpretations and traces the history of wildlife genre programming. A pick for either nature or film studies collections.

Great book - but overpriced.......2007-09-18

This book is definitely one-of-a-kind (at least I haven't been able to find any others on the same subject). The content is useful and exactly what I was looking for when I purchased it.

The only reason I give it 4 instead of 5 stars is because the book is really small. I guess I didn't read the description details very well, but this book was a lot smaller (dimensions) and shorter (pages with information) than I was expecting. I also have really no use for any chapter (of any book) that tries to tell me what camera to get, by the time the book is published that chapter is out of date. That limits the usefulness in the future.

I am glad I purchased it, and the size is nice in that I can pack it up with the gear and use it as a field guide at times.

If you are looking for a book on wildlife videography, there really isn't any other book devoted to the subject right now. However, I'd recommend trying to pick up a used copy and save yourself a little bit of money.

Loved the book, very informational on how to record birds and other critters in the wild. going to test some of the suggestions in Connecticut when I go to the Eagle Watch.

At Last!.......2006-05-29

As a keen amateur camcorder user with a passion for wildlife I've been looking for a book like this for years. It's answered many questions, given me loads of new ideas and all in friendly language I can understand. Various technical matters that were confusing me have been explained and I now have a much clearer idea how the professionals do it. I'm already getting better results from my camcorder and have ideas for movies queuing up in my head. I've realised how previously I was just pointing my camcorder at wildlife and recording - now I am making movies!
I've even found myself contemplating a career in this field.
Highly recommended for anyone wanting to get more out of their camcorder - especially if wanting to record wildlife/nature.

I've wanted to be a wildlife film-maker for as long as I can remember but knew it was competitive and had little idea how to get started. Then I found this book. I suddenly feel like I know so much more about the industry and have much more confidence. The case studies of many of my heroes were fascinating and made me feel like I did have a chance after all. I also have a much clearer idea how the wildlife film-making business works and how professional movies are made. I had no idea how many different people and jobs were involved in film-making and this book covers them all. This is the only book on this topic ever written - so if you want to work in wildlife film-making you can't really do without it.

Book Description

If, as many argue, movies and television have become Western culture's premier storytelling media, so too have they become, for most members of society, the primary source of encounters with the natural world--particularly wild animals. The television fare offered nightly by national and cable networks such as PBS and the Discovery Channel provides millions of viewers with their only experience of the wilderness and its inhabitants.

The very films that so many viewers take as accurate portrayals of wildlife, however, have evolved primarily as a form of entertainment, following the established codes and conventions of narrative exposition. The result has been not the representation of nature, but its wholesale reconstruction and reconfiguration according to film and television conventions, audience expectations, and the demands of competition in the media marketplace.

Wildlife Films traces the genealogy of the nature film, from its origins as the "animal locomotion" studies that mark the very beginnings of motion pictures themselves, to the founding of the Animal Planet cable channel that boasts "all animals, all the time." The narrative and thematic elements that unite wildlife films as a genre have their roots not in the documentary film tradition, but in the older traditions of oral and written animal fables as reflections of human society. Bousé contends that classic wildlife films often portray animal protagonists living in families modeled on an ideal of the human nuclear family and working in communities that resemble an ideal of bucolic human society. In these stories--presented as documentaries--animals are motivated by human emotions and conduct relationships according to human customs. This imposition of culturally satisfying narrative patterns upon the lives of animals has not only led to the misrepresentation of the natural world; it has promoted the notion that our values, our moral vision, our models of society and family structure derive from nature, rather than being cultural formations.

Customer Reviews:

A groundbreaking work!.......2000-12-04

For anyone seriously interested in wildlife films, this book provides a compelling argument that they share many traits with mainstream Hollywood moviemaking, often to their detriment as scientific educational tools. Bousé traces how traditions within the film and television industry have constrained wildlife films from the silent era through the present. He gives numerous examples of how evolution and behavioral biology have been misrepresented by filmmakers intent on telling stories about animals behaving in ways analogous to human heroes, villains, parents and children. Particularly fascinating is his account of how the Walt Disney Company drew from conventions in its animated films when entering into wildlife filmmaking with the True-Life series, which subsequently influenced other wildlife films. This is an eye-opening read that should enhance critical viewership of these films and inspire future filmmakers to rethink their approach to the animals they depict.

Surprisingly good.......2000-08-30

I have long enjoyed watching wildlife programs on PBS and the Discovery channel, but I was surprised by both the breadth and depth of their treatment here. There is a wealth of information about the genre, and many interesting behind-the-scenes stories about the films and their makers (the bit about Frank Buck is priceless!). The author is evidently a media scholar or film historian of some sort, and is clearly at home analyzing how films work, how audiences receive them, and how the economics of the film and television industries shape content. He makes some good connections between wildlife films and written animal stories, animated films, myths, fables, etc. I admired the way he outlined the historical development of wildlife films by constantly showing the relevance of that history to contemporary programs. His discussions of how wildlife films depict the complexities of evolutionary biology were of particular interest to me, and in my view were very astute. He makes a good case that profit-driven and formulaic media images have done little to help the general public toward a better understanding of scientific facts related to contemporary wildlife issues, and that they really are not meant to. I'm amazed the whole subject has been overlooked for so long, and am delighted to see it get this kind of treatment.

Two Brothers: A Fable on Film and How It Was Told (Newmarket Pictorial Moviebook Series)

ASIN: 0500511934

Book Description

A history of man and the tiger by Jean-Jacques Annaud, the acclaimed director of Two Brothers.

Living exclusively in Asia, from Siberia to India to Southeast Asia, tigers are held to be both living gods—protagonists in extraordinary legends and beliefs—and bloodthirsty creatures, feared by local villagers. Hunted by Europeans in colonial times, captured by zoos, trained for circus performances, and even kept as pets, tigers are today under serious threat of extinction in their natural habitat.

Jean-Jacques Annaud's latest movie is the story of two tiger cubs captured during a hunt in Cambodia in the 1920s. One of the cubs is adopted by a little boy, the son of a colonial family, while the other is taken away and trained to perform in a circus. We follow the fate of these two tigers, separated at birth, as they come together again at an organized fight, recognize each other, and then take flight together.

This book recounts and explains the ambivalent relationship that unites tiger and man. It is stunningly illustrated with photos from the movie, shots of locations (the marvelous scenery of Angkor and the Cambodian villages where the film is set), and numerous historical illustrations of the magnificent tiger, including paintings, drawings, frescoes, circus posters, hunting scenes, and photographs from old albums. 200 color illustrations.

Good information, beautiful photos, too much cruelty! Dammit, s**t! .......2006-02-28

Look, I'm a tiger lover, and this book had good enough info on their way of life, including the fact they can communicate in many ways, dream more than we do and have many emotions, including compassion, fear, joy, love, tenderness, anger and humor. And the photos were beautiful(with the exception of those with poachers and dead tigers, the former of which I drew crosshairs and a lot of stabbing weapons on! Death to all poachers and their lovers!)especially the ones with the cute cubs and the contented adults. Unfortunately, there were WAY too many stories of tiger cruelty, especially the fact that people are all too unwilling to admit it's THEIR OWN FAULT tigers attack their cattle and/or them. We all know the case and why that is. Also, the crummy author really overrates the ferocity of a tiger as well as the rage or scariness of one. She makes them look like death loving savages when really all they are is predators doing all they can to survive in a harsh and unforgiving world. Anyway, this all evens the book out to 3 stars, which means it's OK, bordering on below. I'll keep it for the photos, but I want you all to know that poachers, traders of parts and poacher lovers don't deserve to exist on the same planet as good, decent human beings or beautiful animals. Anyway, only by this book if you are a tiger fanatic and have a LOT of patience and endurance. Thank you, good people of this world and naturalists.

A lovely presentation.......2004-12-09

As much a coffee-table eye-catching reference as a research piece, Tiger, Tiger blends lovely tiger photos by David Kosakas, a still photographer who has a long film history to his credit, with text by Karine Lou Matignon to provide the story tigers so popular profiled in Jean-Jacques Annaude's film 'Two Brothers', about tiger cubs captured in Cambodia. Lovely stills from the film supplement Matignon's exploration of the big cats, which includes discussions of the beliefs, myths and superstitions associated with the tiger over the years. A lovely presentation.
