In Vancouver, popular American television series like The X-Files and Canadian series like Da Vinci's Inquest have boosted the city's profile as a centre for international and domestic productions. Serra Tinic's On Location is the first empirical analysis of regional Canadian television producers in the context of developing global media markets.Tinic observes that global television production in Vancouver has been a contradictory process that has, on one level, led to the homogenization of culturally specific storylines, while simultaneously facilitating the development of new avenues for international ventures. The author explains how federal and regional network considerations, funding guidelines, and partnerships with international co-producers affect the capacity of Canadian television producers to negotiate culturally specific storylines in the development process. She further interrogates the concepts of globalization, culture, and national identity, and their relationship to broadcasting from the perspectives of members of the television industry themselves, highlighting the extent to which industry practices in Vancouver epitomize current trends in global television production. On Location fills a major gap in contemporary media and cultural studies debates that question the connections between the politics of place, culture, and commerce within the larger context of cultural globalization. 410 0$aCultural spaces. 606 $aTelevision broadcasting$xSocial aspects$zBritish Columbia$zVancouver 606 $aTelevision$xSocial aspects$zBritish Columbia$zVancouver 606 $aGlobalization 615 0$aTelevision broadcasting$xSocial aspects 615 0$aTelevision$xSocial aspects 615 0$aGlobalization. 676 $a302.23450971133 700 $aTinic$b Serra A$g(Serra Ayse),$f1965-$01697775 801 0$bMiAaPQ 801 1$bMiAaPQ 801 2$bMiAaPQ 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910816120603321 996 $aOn location$94078752 997 $aUNINA
