Behind the Hollywood camera

A lot of people are needed to make a film, as well as the actors and actresses. They are all the other people whose names appear at the beginning or end of a film. Some of them have strange-sounding jobs like ‘Best Boy’ or ‘Key Grip’. Let’s look at just some of them.

Producer — the person who chooses which film to make, who gets the money needed to make it, and who takes care of all the business problems. Director – the person who decides how to ‘shoot’ (or film) each scene, and who controls all the actors and other people who are helping to make the film. The director is the one who shout s ‘Action!’ when he or she is ready. One piece of film which is filmed without stopping the camera is called a ‘take’. Screenwriter — the person who writes the screenplay or script of a film. Sometimes many screenwriters are employed before a director is happy with a

screenplay. And when a book is made into a film, it is not usually the writer of the book who writes the screenplay. A screenwriter is usually given this job. Editor – the person who ‘cuts’ and then puts together the film after the filming has finished, and makes it into the final movie. Set Designer — the person who arrange s the furniture and scenery needed in the film. The designer often plans by making models of the scenery before working on the final set. Wardrobe Designer — the person who designs or chooses the clothes that the actors wear in the film. These are often got from special companies who

keep every kind of film and theatre clothes that you can think of. Gaffer — the lights and lighting chief in the studio. Best Boy — the Gaffer’s assistant. Key Grip— the person who moves the camera around. Boom Operator — the person who moves the microphone above the heads of the actors when they are speaking.

FILM FACTS

The Hanging Gardens of Babylon were built inabout 600 B.C.in Babylon near modern-day Baghdad, Iraq. These gardens – which may be only a fable – are said to have been laid

out on a brick terrace by King Nebuchadnezzar II for one of his wives.

The Temple of Artemis (Diana) at Ephesus was built in about 550 B.C. in Greek city of Ephesus, on west coast of modern Turkey. The original temple burned in 356 B.C. and was rebuilt on the same foundation. Fire destroyed the second temple in 262 A.D., but its foundation and some debris have survived.

to honour the god Zeus. All that remains in Olympia nowadays are the temple's fallen columns and the foundation of the building.

The Colossus of Rhodes was built in early 200s B.C. near harbour of Rhodes, a Greek island in Aegean Sea in honour of the sun god Helios.

Sightseeings of The World

The Eiffel Tower was designed by Gustave Eiffel for the International Exhibition of Paris of 1889 commemorating the centenary of the French Revolution. At 300 metres (320.75m including antenna), and 7000 tons, it was the world's tallest building until 1930. It was almost torn down in 1909, but was saved because of its antenna - used for telegraphy at that time. Beginning in 1910 it became part of the International Time Service. French radio (since 1918), and French television (since 1957) have also made use of its stature. During its lifetime, the Eiffel Tower has also witnessed a few strange scenes, including being scaled by a mountaineer in 1954, and parachuted off of in 1984 by two Englishmen. In 1923 a journalist rode a bicycle down from the first level. However, if its birth was difficult, it is now completely accepted and must be listed as one of the symbols of Paris itself.

Located at the city of Agra in the State of Uttar Pradesh, the Taj Mahal is

one of the most beautiful masterpieces of architecture in the world. Agra was the Capital of the Mughals (Moguls), the Muslim Emperors who rule d Northern India between the sixteenth and nineteenth centuries. It was Shah Jehan who ordered the building of the Taj, in honour of his wife, Arjumand Banu who later became known as Mumtaz Mahal, the Distinguished of the Palace. Mumtaz and Shah Jehan were married in 1717 and, over the next 18 years, had 17 children together. The Empress used to accompany her husband

in his military campaigns, and it was in 1730, in Burhanpur, that she gave birth

to her last child, for she died in childbirth. So great was the Emperor love to his

wife that he ordered the building of the most beautiful mausoleum on Earth for

her.

World Famous Artists. Vincent Van (1853-1890).

Nobody has ever painted cornfields or sunflowers like Van Gogh. His paintings are full of colour and sunlight. Today his paintings are worth millions of pounds but in his lifetime he only sold one.

Van Gogh was born in Holland in 1853. He did not start painting until he was twenty-seven, ten years before he died. Before becoming a painter, he was a teacher, an art dealer and a church preacher. In 1886 he left Holland and joined his younger brother, Theo, who was working in Paris at the time.

After living there for two years, he moved to the warmer climate of Arles in the south France. Here he painted some of his most famous pictures. However, Van Gogh was mentally ill. During one of his fits of madness he attacked his friend, the artist Paul Gauguin. In another fit of madness, Van Gogh cut off part of his own ear. Eventually he went into a mental hospital but he did not get any better.

Finally, on Sunday 27th July 1890, in the small village of Auvers, north of Paris, Vincent Van Gogh took a gun, went into a cornfield and shot himself. When his brother Theo arrived, he said: “I hope I did it properly.” Thirty-six hours later Van Gogh died in his brother’s arms. His last words were “ La tristesse durera ”. (The sadness will continue.)

Adam Smith

Adam Smith (1723-1790), was a Scottish political economist and philosopher. He has become famous by his influential book The Wealth of Nations (1776).Poverty was the acceptable norm for the majority of people in a society based on mercantilism, who had little choice in the destination of their life or their contribution towards society in the latter part of the 18th century. With local guilds dictating the production and distribution of such necessities as wool, textiles, and grains, market competition was non-existent. In his groundbreaking work The Wealth of Nations, published the same year as the American Revolution, Smith soundly examines industry, commerce, and the concept of and benefits of free enterprise.

Adam Smith was born in 1723 in Kirkaldy, county Fife, in Scotland, the son of Adam Smith and Margaret Douglas. His father had died before he was born and he was raised by his widowed mother. He attended Glasgow and Oxford universities before accepting the position as professor of moral philosophy at Glasgow in 1752.

A popular lecturer, Smith also wrote many essays and articles on such diverse topics as literature, justice, health, and welfare. In 1764 he left Glasgow to accompany the Duke of Buccleuch on his travels through Europe as his tutor. Upon his return he started working on The Wealth of Nations which would resound for decades to come and affect changes for contemporary economic policy in the Western world. In 1778 he settled in Edinburgh, Scotland as. Five years later he was a founding member of the Royal Society of Edinburgh. He died on 17 July 1790 and lies buried in the Canongate Churchyard, Royal Mile, Edinburgh, Scotland.
