Whois & Analysis for ioncinema.com

A documentary film is a nonfictional motion picture intended to some aspect of reality, primarily for the purposes of instruction, education, or maintaining a historical record.

Such films were originally shot on film stock—the only medium available—but now include video and digital productions that can be either direct-to-video, made into a TV show, or released for screening in cinemas.

"Documentary" has been described as a "filmmaking practice, a cinematic tradition, and mode of audience reception" that is continually evolving and is without clear boundaries.

The New York Daily News, officially titled Daily News, is an American newspaper based in New York City.

It is the fourth-most widely circulated daily newspaper in the United States.

It was founded in 1919, and was the first U.S. daily printed in tabloid format.

It is owned by Mortimer Zuckerman, and is headquartered at 4 New York Plaza in Lower Manhattan.

An independent film or indie film is a feature film that is produced outside of the major film studio system, in addition to being produced and distributed by independent entertainment agencies.

Independent films are sometimes distinguishable by their content and style and the way in which the filmmakers' personal artistic vision is realized.

Usually, but not always, independent films are made with considerably lower budgets than major studio movies.

Subtitles are derived from either a transcript or screenplay of the dialog or commentary in films, television programs, video games, and the like, usually displayed at the bottom of the screen, but can also be at the top of the screen if there is already text at the bottom of the screen.

They can either be a form of written translation of a dialog in a foreign language, or a written rendering of the dialog in the same language, with or without added information to help viewers who are deaf or hard of hearing to follow the dialog, or people who cannot understand the spoken dialogue or who have accent recognition problems.

The encoded method can either be pre-rendered with the video or separate as either a graphic or text to be rendered and overlaid by the receiver.

The separate subtitles are used for DVD, Blu-ray and television teletext/Digital Video Broadcasting (DVB) subtitling or EIA-608 captioning, which are hidden unless requested by the viewer from a menu or remote controller key or by selecting the relevant page or service (e.g., p.

888 or CC1), always carry additional sound representations for deaf and hard of hearing viewers.

Teletext subtitle language follows the original audio, except in multi-lingual countries where the broadcaster may provide subtitles in additional languages on other teletext pages.

EIA-608 captions are similar, except that North American Spanish stations may provide captioning in Spanish on CC3.

DVD and Blu-ray only differ in using run-length encoded graphics instead of text, as well as some HD DVB broadcasts.

World cinema is a term used primarily in English-speaking countries to refer to the films and film industries of non-English-speaking countries.

It is therefore often used interchangeably with the term foreign film.

However, both world cinema and foreign film could be taken to refer to the films of all countries other than one's own, regardless of native language.
