The film made it to my small families living room on cassette rented from VIDEO EZY. On Friday nights, we had Movie Night, and each of us enjoyed a small bowl of lollies mix. There wasn’t yet a special features section to select, like on the DVD’s shortly adopted as the burgeoning new technology in the 2000s. I had to hold the button down on the VCR to fast-forward through credits, the Elton John songwriting segment, where I finally found it. There was the nine-minute special features of Artists and Animators drawing a full-grown Lion in the studio. Not just drawing, but also articulating the character features they were constructing based on observation. David Attenborough was a weekly influence on the family, talking about nature and lionesses hunting, and my name translates as Lion in Hebrew. I loved Lions. I couldn’t get over two things: 1. People were paid to draw — because I liked doing that at school. 2. They sounded smart like I felt, talking about drawings as if they meant something, capturing intuitive complex social and cultural information about the world. Since then I’ve attempted to investigate, research, and teach that visualising one’s experience that communicates your life-world is a The Elephant’s Leg profound intellectual pursuit. Something deeply connected to storytelling and cultural production.]]> Wed 24 Aug 2022 15:06:59 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:54793 Wed 13 Mar 2024 09:43:31 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:54255 Wed 13 Mar 2024 08:02:57 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:53315 Tue 21 Nov 2023 13:22:08 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:43495 Tue 20 Sep 2022 15:49:20 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:29461 Tue 16 Oct 2018 11:26:28 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:32687 Mon 23 Sep 2019 11:11:17 AEST ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:38953 Creative Industries Careers: Re-imagining Regional and Remote Students’ Opportunities roadshow for secondary students (Grushka, et al, 2018b). The Creative Industries Roadshow was funded by the Australian Department of Education, Higher Education Participation Partnerships Program (HEPPP). It was instituted in order to encourage students to consider Creative Industries university study pathways and the value of a creative digital technology skill to being work ready. This qualitative study reports on secondary school teachers’ attitudes to the increasing characterisation of creatives as entrepreneurs and the need to provide all students with appropriate soft skills. It draws on a teacher survey and teacher video interviews supported by the fieldnotes of the researchers. It identifies the challenges facing a regional university trying to maintain fine arts skills within a Creative Industries program and how secondary visual arts educators and regional communities identify with the elevation of the role of Creative Industries skills to meet future workforce needs.]]> Fri 25 Mar 2022 15:17:40 AEDT ]]> https://nova.newcastle.edu.au/vital/access/ /manager/Repository/uon:42996 Fri 09 Sep 2022 14:03:29 AEST ]]>
