Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. From 1989 to 1991, Barry Dornfeld had a double role on the crew of the PBS documentary series Childhood. As a researcher for the series, he investigated the relationship between children and media. As an anthropologist, however, his subject was the television production process itself - examining, for example, how producers developed the series, negotiated with their academic advisors, and shaped footage shot around the world into seven programmes. He presents the results of his fieldwork in this study, taking an ethnographic approach to the production of a television show, as opposed to its reception. Dornfeld begins with a broad discussion of public television's role in American culture and goes on to examine documentaries as a form of popular anthropology. Drawing on his observations of Childhood, he considers the documentary form as a kind of imagining, in which both producers and viewers construct understandings of themselves and others, revealing their conceptions of culture and history and their ideologies of cultural difference and universality. he argues that producers of culture should also be understood as consumers who conduct their work through an active envisioning of the audience. Dornfeld explores as well how intellectual media professionals struggle with the institutional and cultural forces surrounding television which promote entertainment at the expense of education. The book provides a glimpse behind the scenes of a major documentary and demonstrates the value of an ethnographic approach to the study of media production. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.
