Good news from the end of April:
See Barry Salt's study "How They Cut Dialogue Scenes" on our Measurement Theory section here. This piece is not identical to an earlier article on the same subject published in "The New Review of Film and Television Studies" a year or two ago: new films and new thoughts have been added. Thanks, Barry!
Barry has also contributed a piece called "Lines and Graphs" to "Question 2: What Do Lines Tell?" to our ongoing conversation called "Film and Statistics: Give and Take" on the On Statistics tab of the Measurement Theory section, here.

Good news from early March:
I added a new link to an old discussion topics called "Cinemetrics predecessors." The discussion was intiated by Frank Kessler (Utrecht U) in 2006 and taken up by Torey Liepa (Bilkent U) who discovered what turned out to be the second earliest known film statistics study conducted by Benjamin Barondess and published in the Moving Picture World in July 1913. Now that MPW became available online you can find Barondess' study here. Take a lool; this hundred-year old essay called "Studying Leaders" (leaders=intertitles) repays reading: what Barondess establishes is how the ratio between shots and intertitles changes within the duration of the film. Also, click here for the earliest statistical study of shot lengths by Dr Elias Boudinot Stocktonin in August 1912.

Seen this? Peter Leonard (Director of Computing at the Humanities, University of Chicago) sent me the link this night. Trailers and montage sequences are so blatantly important for the study of editing, yet so epemeral and immaterial as film history facts that they are rarely looked at or discussed at all.

Good news and Happy New Year!
1) The discussion On Statistics continues in our Measurement Theory section. Responses came and are waiting for you to be read from Mike Baxter and Nick Redfern to "Question 2: What do Lines Tell?"
2) Prof. Lev Manovich, who has been in dialog with Cinemetrics about its data visualization from 2008, has published a new, very informative essay on editing, Vertov, Soviet montage and other things, complete with inventive visualizations, and announced it on our Discussion Board. Lev also suggests a possible solution for the automatic cut detection.
