Television Production: Television Audio - Using Off-Camera Microphones When multiple mics are used on a set there are four things you can do to reduce or eliminate the resulting phase cancellation: carefully check and vary distances between the sound sources and multiple mics to reduce or eliminate any cancellation effect (A speaker's mic should be placed at one-third or less the distance of the next nearest mic.) Because the sounds arrive at the mic at slightly different times, they end up being out of phase and to various degrees cancel each other out. www.cybercollege.com /tvp041.htm   (897 words)

Tommy Hunter Show, The Hunter's insistence that the set in each city reflect the locale of the taping illustrated his constant striving to reinsert a local feel into the globalizing pull of television. The behind-the-scenes conflict between CBC television workers and Tommy Hunter, a country musician, derived from their emergence from two separate cultural formations: on the one hand, the "world" of television production, with its own sensibilities and its own priorities; and on the other hand, the "world" of country music, with its internal organization and logic. It was this purist approach that would ultimately sound the show's death knell, however, and a lack of younger viewers and slipping audience ratings led to its cancellation in 1992. www.museum.tv /archives/etv/T/htmlT/tommyhunter/tommyhunter.htm   (1155 words)

MAGAZINE CRAFT DGA at the Television Critics Association VOL 28-6: February 2004 Some critics bemoaned that television is not what it once was, finding support in ratings figures indicating that even the top shows today are drawing numbers that would have guaranteed cancellation a decade ago. Director Alan Arkush (Crossing Jordan, Ally McBeal) welcomed directors and critics to the DGA's Episodic Television Directors reception, held at the Renaissance Hotel in Hollywood, during the recent Television Critics Association's (TCA) winter press tour. However, while some wish that American television could be done the way it is in the U.K. and elsewhere, others commented that audiences, critics and those working in the industry in those countries are looking to these shores and wishing they had the variety and quality to be found on American television. www.dga.org /news/v28_6/evnt_dgaattca.php3   (1874 words)

Silliphant, Stirling Longstreet's cancellation after one season effectively ended Silliphant's involvement in the continuing series form--but not his television career. Meanwhile, Silliphant's "poetry" was living (broadcast) proof of television's capacity for brilliant writing and provocative drama, and thirty years later, the writing machine was still writing. Although he had early success in the 1950s with a spate of feature films, and went on to even greater big-screen achievements in the late 1960s and 1970s, Silliphant maintained a constant presence in television throughout his writing career, and in the 1980s focused most of his attention on television movies, historical miniseries, and novels. www.museum.tv /archives/etv/S/htmlS/silliphants/silliphants.htm   (1874 words)

Visioneering the Future: Interactive High Definition Digital Television OPTUS has dispelled speculation about cancellation of its interactive TV trial soon, revealing yesterday that the trial will be expanded to 3000 homes by March and that it will begin charging for the service. OPTUS and the Seven Network have overcome their differences on technology to team up on a new interactive television project for the Bledisloe Cup on Saturday. DIGITAL television transmission commenced today and free-to-air broadcasters are so concerned at the disruption their digital signals could have on TV reception and VCR playback function they have jointly funded a television interference help line and technician call-out service. www.ctie.monash.edu.au /visioneering_the_future/vtf4050.htm   (8402 words)

television As dramatic a gesture as the "Crossfire" cancellation seems, it is also, given CNN's prime-time performance, a bit like rearranging deck chairs on the proverbial sinking ship. The departure last week of the puckish bow-tie enthusiast and "Crossfire" co-host Tucker Carlson from CNN was a surprise to almost no one who keeps abreast of cable news comings and goings. After all, CNN has for a quarter of a century defined itself as a hard-news network, and "Crossfire's" existence on the schedule for 23 of those years had never been viewed as anathema to the network's identity. metromix.chicagotribune.com /tv/mmx-0501090431jan09,0,5059452.story?coll=mmx-television_heds   (764 words)

Enterprise, which stars Scott Bakula as starship captain Jonathan Archer, is currently in its fourth season on the U.S. network UPN. With that goal in mind, a group of Trekkies took out a full-page ad in the Los Angeles Times on Tuesday to generate support for the show, which is scheduled to air for the last time in May. www.cbc.ca /story/arts/national/2005/02/16/Arts/trek050216.html   (354 words)

Quark NBC heavily promoted it[remember their "What Is A Quark?" campaign?]but they has the misfortune to run it during the winter of 1978 during which ice storms caused power outages over half the US which may have also attributed to the early cancellation. Even though Quark ran opposite Donny and Marie, it was a bright spot for a network that was in a terrible slump. QUARK lasted 8 episodes, but with the pilot there are a total of 9. www.jumptheshark.com /q/quark.htm   (354 words)

Bugs (television programme) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The programme was a mixture of action/adventure and science-fiction, with a reliance on fast-paced plots, technical gadgetary, stunts and explosions. Bugs was a British television drama series which ran for four seasons from April 1995 to August 1999. The programme came close to cancellation at the conclusion of its third season, but due to an exciting cliffhanger ending deliberately included by the production team, and strong foreign sales, a fourth was commissioned. en.wikipedia.org /wiki/Bugs_(television_programme)   (380 words)

Angel Season 6? - The CHUD.COM Message Boards At the point of cancellation, however, The WB announced that they were interested in continuing the story through a series of television movies, none of which have ever been developed. So in an ironic twist, the network which deemed “Angel” not suitable for television, is now desperate for more, and the cast and crew have gone on to greener pastures. I suppose it could be written into the script that Illyria has taken up eating at the Doublemeat Palace but it'd probably be best to allow her some time to pop the kid out and get back into shape if they want her for TV movies and/or a series. www.chud.com /forums/showthread.php?p=1296243   (2096 words)

Saving Firefly - an inside story - BDU Community Forums Firefly was a scifi show in danger of cancellation before the first episode ever aired. For those of you readers who may be puzzled as to why a network would spend millions and millions of dollars to produce a television show and then take it out to the backlot and shoot it between the eyes, here's a little primer about how the inner financial world of broadcast television works. Kristen and I found ourselves essentially erased from Firefly's fandom story, and a goodly portion of the fans who would sell their mothers into a sex slave ring to score tickets to an early screening of the flick have never heard of either of us. forums.bducommunity.com /showthread.php?p=110659#post110659   (6321 words)

Boomtown For one year (and six episodes following, before its untimely cancellation) it was the best drama on television, and now, thankfully, NBC has finally done the shows rabid, wounded fans right by presenting the brilliant first 16 episodes on a five-disk DVD package, complete with six commentary tracks and two documentaries. In the pilot, for example, a young girl is murdered during a botched drive-by shooting, and one of the boys inadvertently involved, an innocent black teenager from a good family, accidentally dies during the investigation. “Boomtown”, which ran for 16 weeks on Sundays at 10 on NBC, before fatally moving to Friday, created a lot of buzz when it was initially screened for critics at an annual TV journalism convention. dunkirkma.net /inreview/features/boomtown.html   (766 words)

Zap2it - TV news - 'Stargate' Rumors Are Premature, Says MGM In a statement issued Oct. 28, Hank Cohen, the president of MGM Television Entertainment, said: "Regretfully at an event in the U.K., there were unauthorized voices that prematurely indicated that 'Stargate SG-1' would return for a 7th season.

Donahue--War Casualty War may or may not be inevitable, but a one-sided discussion of US policy toward Iraq appears to be all but guaranteed on network television. Whatever the merits of MSNBC's Donahue show, the behind-the-scenes maneuvers that led to its cancellation on February 25 illustrate the extent to which basic commitments to honest dialogue on the networks are collapsing as the threat of war becomes more real. www.thenation.com /docprem.mhtml?i=20030324&s=nichols   (591 words)

X-Men (TV series) - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia The cancellation of the series was predicted by many fans because the final season of the X-men had a noticable drop in the quality of the animation and storylines. Currently, selected episodes of this series can be seen on Toon Disney at 11:30pm EST on all nights of the week.

FOX Network Cancels 5 Emmy Nominated Shows as Season Enters Third Week NEW YORK, NY-As expected, the FOX Television network announced today the cancellation of seven critically acclaimed and widely popular television shows as the fall season entered its third week. Though many concede these new series didn't perform well, industry analysts attribute this to the fact that FOX only aired a few episodes and cancelled them before looking at the fact the shows were well-received. Last year, the network cancelled Action, a show TV Guide called "well written and provocative" and later pulled their astonishing teen docudrama American High after only two episodes. www.umich.edu /~uac/threeweeks/storydcbc.html   (468 words)

Amazon.co.uk: DVD: Boomtown - Complete Series 1 [2003] On the DVD: Boomtown, Series 1 DVD box set presents all 18 episodes (a further six were made for Series 2 before the show's cancellation) presented in widescreen 16:9 with the choice of Dolby Digital 5.1 or 2.0 Pro Logic. Boomtown was a radical and inventive approach to the ensemble cop show that added up to so much more than just its central gimmick of telling different stories from different perspectives. If Boomtown had aired in the UK first, I think the response would have definitely commissioned a full second series & maybe more, but at least I can rest easy at night in the knowledge that this show WAS made. www.amazon.co.uk /exec/obidos/ASIN/B0000C88K8   (1240 words)

CANOE -- JAM! Movies: 'Firefly' hits big screen with 'Serenity' "We've had a long ride back from a cancellation of a short-lived television series to the release of a major motion picture from Universal studios," he says. And though Whedon is already thinking about a sequel, or possibly revisiting some new version of the television series ("you can't stop the brain," he says), for now he's just waiting and hoping Serenity will appeal to a bigger audience than those trusty Browncoats this weekend. Such is the legacy of the Browncoats, also known as lovers of a short-lived 2002 Fox television series Firefly. jam.canoe.ca /Movies/2005/09/24/1234136.html   (1026 words)
