Streaming the Small
Screen

INTRODUCTION
Cable channels,
broadcasters and plasma flat-screens have got some competition. Streaming
services like Netflix and Amazon Prime are creating more and more original
content, featuring box office draws like Kevin Spacey, Ricky Gervais and John
Goodman. Meanwhile, a new digital antenna is promising Web access to broadcast
television. Is it time to throw out the sets? What will the next television era
look like?
Read
the discussion
The Television Will Be Revolutionized

The Internet has eaten
television up. In the past, TV offered a steady stream of live and taped shows,
either on a subsidized (advertising backed) or paid (subscription) model.
Netflix and Amazon have followed the traditional premium channel model,
offering original programming on a paid subscription basis with a small twist:
you can watch anything they offer at any time and on any device you want.
In a world where content is
consumed in either short or binge form on a variety of devices, the show is now
central and the network has taken a backseat.
Meanwhile YouTube and Vimeo
provide ad-supported user-generated short-form content. This follows the
traditional advertising-supported model while reducing the cost of production by
providing a marketplace where amateurs, "prosumers," and
professionals compete alongside each other for eyeballs in another any time and
any device model.
What has arisen is a world
where content is consumed in either short or binge form on a variety of devices,
with little regard to which network it was created for. The show is now central
and the network has taken a backseat.
If it is to survive,
traditional television will need to adapt itself to this new reality, offering
an increasing amount of ad-supported “live” content (news, sports, awards) to
capitalize on its dominance in real-time broadcasting, while granting
subscription-based access to its back catalog across many devices so that it
fits in a world where consumers are looking for a TV experience that is
personal, portable, and always on.
Television advertising
models are also about to be upended as the digital era will provide more
granular demographic and geographic data on audiences, leading to more
efficient but more price-pressured ads.
Those who can position
themselves quickly and more efficiently in this new world will thrive while the
rest of the industry will contract.
It’s a Work in Progress


Television is constantly
evolving. The values of live programming and public service that informed so
much of network television in the ’50s are mostly absent from a contemporary
audience’s expectations. In fact, it seems that every 10 years or so there is a
major upheaval in what television means to most viewers: from live programming
out of New York City in the ’50s to Hollywood entertainment and variety shows
in the ’60s to socially conscious programs reflecting modern life in the ’70s
to a magazine, niche model of cable in the ’80s and ’90s to the wave of reality
television that has overtaken every network since 2000. But most people really
never have spoken of television in the abstract; they have always been more
interested in its programming.
Despite the dazzling pace
of technological change, it is our belief that content will continue to drive
viewer interest.
Despite the dazzling pace
of technological change, it is our belief that content will continue to drive
viewer interest, and thus play the dominant role in shaping the future of
television, just as it has throughout the medium’s history. Content is the
reason people rushed out in the ’40s to purchase television sets, to watch
"Texaco Star Theater" and "Your Show of Shows," or turned
to "Friends" and "Seinfeld" and the rest of NBC’s “Must-See
TV” Thursday-night lineup in the ’90s, or ponied up extra dollars for
addictive, buzzed-about cable shows like "The Sopranos" and "Mad
Men," or are now purchasing subscriptions to Netflix for "House of Cards."
The bottom line is economic viability: as much as they might bask in the glory
of offering acclaimed, award-winning shows, programmers need these shows to
work financially to stay in business, and that will be just as true a decade
from now as it is today.
Of course how and when
people watch will continue to evolve – the democratization of video on demand
is helplessly enticing – but what people watch will continue to be driven by
the quality of the content itself, just as it always has.

curiosidades
Uncle Sam
(Tio Sam)
Tio Sam é a personificação nacional dos Estados Unidos da América e um dos símbolos nacionais mais
famosos do mundo. O nome Tio Sam foi usado primeiramente durante a Guerra
anglo-americana de 1812, mas só foi desenhado em 1852.
Ele é geralmente
representado como um senhor de fisionomia séria com cabelos brancos e barbicha.
Há fontes que veem uma semelhança do rosto de Tio Sam com o do presidente Andrew Jackson, outras com o do presidente Abraham Lincoln. O Tio Sam é representado vestido com as cores
e elementos da bandeira norte-americana - por exemplo, uma cartola com listras vermelhas e brancas e
estrelas brancas num fundo azul, e calças vermelhas e azuis listradas.
Origem
Seu primeiro uso data
da Guerra de 1812, e sua primeira ilustração data
de 1852.
Com o passar do tempo
o apelido tornou-se cada vez mais popular, até que a revista americana Punch o
batizou como símbolo estadunidense. Ofolclore diz
que o Tio Sam foi criado por soldados americanos
no norte de Nova Iorque, que recebiam barris de carne com as iniciais U.S. (de United States, que significa
"Estados Unidos" em português) estampadas. Os soldados teriam
brincado, dizendo que as iniciais significariam Uncle Sam("Tio Sam"), uma referência ao dono da
companhia fornecedora da carne, Samuel Wilson,
de Troy,
estado de Nova Iorque. O Congresso Americanoreconheceu
Samuel Wilson como inspirador da figura do Tio Sam em 1961.
O Tio Sam é
mencionado na literatura pela primeira vez em 1806, no livro alegórico The Adventures of Uncle Sam in Search After
His Lost Honor, de autoria de Frederick Augustus Fidfaddy, e também faz
referência a Samuel Wilson.
Em 1870, o cartunista Thomas Nast fez
o desenho de Tio Sam baseado
no rosto de Abraham Lincoln.
O cartaz "I Want You"
Cartaz
mostrando o Tio Sam, na Primeira Guerra Mundial, ilustrado por James Flaggem 1917.
Em 1917, o artista James Flagg desenhou-o
em um cartaz com o dedo em riste e com a frase "I Want You for U.S. Army" ("Eu Quero Você
para o Exército dos EUA"), encomendado pelas Forças Armadas americanas,
que recrutava soldados para a Primeira Guerra Mundial. Este pôster foi
inspirado pelo cartaz de Lord Kitchner, feito três anos antes do
Tio Sam. Kitchener era o Secretário de Guerra da Grã-Bretanha quando
estourou o conflito. Tio Sam foi um símbolo histórico do exemplo de poder dos EUA Os EUA, para
mostrar mais superiodade ainda,fez frases para incentivar as pessoas que iam
pra guerra lutar por seu país como:"United we stand" que significa
"continuemos unidos" e "God bless America" que significa
"Deus abençoe a América".
