How has documentary evolved

John Grierson is considered the pioneer of the documentary genre. In the 1920s and 1930s in Britain, he believed documentaries could both inform and unite audiences during difficult economic times. His first film, Drifters (1929), showed fishermen working together to promote British togetherness. During World War 2, documentaries took on propaganda roles, with Grierson producing films to counter Nazi propaganda. In the 1950s, the direct cinema movement sought to capture real, unstaged footage of real people and events. Modern documentaries have become more narrative-driven and theatrical to attract larger audiences, though lower budgets remain an issue and funding from broadcasters can influence productions.

The document discusses the concept of modernity in the late 1800s/early 1900s as a time of both optimism about progress and new technologies, as well as pessimism about their effects on human interactions. It uses the Dreyfus Affair in France as an example where anti-Semitic stereotypes led to the wrongful conviction of a Jewish military officer, deeply dividing French society and calling Enlightenment ideals of equality into question. Theodor Herzl's reaction to the anti-Semitism in Europe was to justify the creation of a Jewish state in Palestine as Jews were seen as a "nation without a home."Nazi propaganda power_point

It describes several of Hitler's propaganda methods, including presenting simple repetitive themes, appealing to emotion, having broad mass appeal, and focusing on one main enemy. It also discusses how propaganda was pervasive in Nazi Germany through various media. Finally, it outlines the goals of both pro-Nazi and anti-Jewish Nazi propaganda, such as portraying Hitler as a savior and Jews as the source of all problems in Germany.AP Between the Wars

The document summarizes the rise of Adolf Hitler and Nazism in Germany following World War 1. It describes how the defeat in WWI and harsh Treaty of Versailles left Germany in economic crisis and humiliation, fueling nationalist sentiments. Hitler exploited this situation by growing his Nazi party, promising to restore Germany's power and blame the country's problems on Jews and foreigners. By the 1930s the Nazis had become the largest party as the Great Depression worsened Germany's situation, and Hitler consolidated power as Chancellor in 1933.holocaust

Hitler exploited propaganda, the weaknesses of the Weimar Republic, and the economic turmoil following World War 1 and the Great Depression to rise to power in Germany. He portrayed the Nazis as able to restore Germany's power and pride by abolishing the Treaty of Versailles and scapegoated Jewish people. Hitler was a skilled, persuasive speaker who promoted nationalist, anti-Semitic ideology that gained widespread appeal among many Germans seeking a strong leader to solve the country's problems.Propaganda in nazi germany

Propaganda played a key role in Nazi Germany under Joseph Goebbels and the Ministry of Public Enlightenment and Propaganda. Goebbels ensured that all media and art promoted the Nazi ideology, with a focus on anti-Semitism, racism, and the cult of personality around Hitler. Book burnings in 1933 aimed to destroy works that did not align with Nazi ideals. Film and cinema were also heavily used for propaganda purposes, glorifying Hitler and portraying Jews negatively. Nazi propaganda targeted different audiences with messages about struggles against enemies, pride in German achievements, and the need to protect ethnic Germans abroad.Presentation1

Hitler used the Hitler Youth organization to harass Jews and required all non-Jewish German children ages 10 to 18 to join propaganda organizations. Josef Goebbels, who was barely 5 feet tall and hated Jews, was put in charge of propaganda by Hitler. On Kristallnacht in 1938, Nazis and Germans attacked Jewish homes and businesses, smashing furniture and burning personal belongings in the streets. Nearly every synagogue in Germany was damaged or burned. German officers handed rocks to children and instructed them to break windows of synagogues. Not all Germans accepted the Nazi lies about Jews, but those who helped Jews faced severe punishment.

During this time, Hitler and the Nazis were preparing for another chance to gain power, despite facing a quiet period with the stable Weimar Republic. They worked to make the party and SA more efficient, practiced propaganda techniques, and tuned their message to appeal to Germans by scapegoating Jews and communists for the country's problems.

Hitler was able to gain support for the Nazis between 1929 and 1932 by portraying Jews as the cause of Germany's economic problems and making them a scapegoat. However, the main reason for Nazi success was the Great Depression, as millions of Germans were suffering from unemployment and Hitler promised to revive the economy. While Hitler took advantage of rising antisemitism, the economic crisis in Germany presented the biggest opportunity for the Nazis to gain followers who were desperate for solutions.HISTORY IGCSE CONTENT - 20TH CENTURY OPTION - DEPTH STUDY GERMANY: HITLER DOM...

- 1. How has documentary evolved? Callum Garnett
- 2. John Grierson – Documentary Pioneer Becoming fascinated by how cinema has control over the masses, and has high values in both entertainment(,entertainment, entertainm ent) and education. He became agitated at several productions, such as Nanook in the North, for being overly poetic, and not focusing enough on educational purposes. Due to the media dependency of 1920-30 Britain he set out to juxtapose education and entertainment.
- 3. John Grierson – Documentary Pioneer  In 1927, Grierson currently situated in Britain, set himself the task of uplifting the British public. Equipped with the belief that documentary had the ability to not only inform a population, but to bring them together during a time plagued by the great depression. His first film, Drifters, 1929, Showed a group of fisherman , venturing across the north sea, promoting British togetherness.
- 4. Propaganda (World War 2)  During World War 2, the Nazi party utilized the media to get its message to the entirety of the German populace. Media such as: Triumph of the Will, 1935, was shown across Germany and the world, to show the ‘morals’ of the Nazi party, sowing the hard working party and citizens working together. This film, along with all other forms of media within Germany at this time was directly influenced by Hitler.  Grierson, along with many others responded to this with their own form of propaganda. Grierson achieved this with the assistance of his Canadian national film commission.
- 5. Direct cinema (Cinema Verite)  Around 1950, direct cinema came into consideration. Originally a French movement, direct cinema, or cinema vérité, moved away from leading information and staged drama, but instead attempted to create ‘real’ footage, showing ‘real’ people doing ‘real’ activities.
- 6. Political Weaponry  Between 1960-70, politicians began using film as a weapon to tarnish or oppose political agendas. This style of film was also used to document a change of power, such as in the early 70’s production ‘Chile: A Special Report’
- 7. Modern Documentaries  Modern documentaries have become a lot more theatrical in their release, in an attempt to attract more of an audience. This can be noticed in such films as: March of the Penguins, 2005 and Inconvenient Truth, 2006.  Most documentaries released recently, in comparison to fictional productions, have a lot lower budget.  Documentaries are now closely associated with narratives, and often contain more personal matters, such is the case in Black Is...Black Ain't (1995), which mix expressive, poetic, and rhetorical elements and stresses subjectivities rather than historical materials.  Due to funding becoming ‘elusive’ within today’s industry, documentaries are often being directly funded by broadcasters which enforce their own bias onto the production.
