Books by Mark Poole
Since its establishment in 1958, the AFI has played a central role in nurturing and supporting both screen culture and production, from small beginnings to an internationally recognised billion dollar industry. Shining A Light maps out the history of the AFI | AACTA (henceforth referred to as the AFI) and the wider industry over the past fifty years and explores the relationship of screen culture to a successful production industry.
The book is a timely and significant contribution to scholarship on Australian cinema, being published at a critical time in Australian film history. The authors offer an insider’s perspective, having interviewed twenty-seven key players from the AFI’s history, and have sifted through volumes of documentary evidence in chronicling the history of the AFI, its successes and its role in Australian screen culture past, present and future.
The writers’ collective experience spans filmmaking, academic research and teaching, film journalism, employment and service in key screen culture organisations as well as an abiding passion for Australian cinema – bringing to the book both the filmmaker or industry perspective, and academic scholarship.
