What a terrific documentary ! Thank you. So sad there have been so few views. Canada is a great country, unfortunately under appreciated by its very own citizens.
Shameless Propaganda (2014) is a documentary by Regina Lynn Bratton, David Christensen and Jelena Goldbach that delves into the history of the National Film Board of Canada's promotional film production. The film delves into the process of making propaganda films and the political and cultural circumstances behind them. Overall, the film has been warmly received by critics and audiences alike. It is seen as an in-depth and entertaining documentary worthy of anyone wishing to understand the history of propaganda filmmaking and its cultural and political implications. By illustrating the origins and evolution of film propaganda, the film shows how it has influenced and shaped our social, cultural and political perceptions. For film lovers, historians and sociologists, the film offers valuable insight.
I remember recently seeing a few animated propaganda shorts that the NFB commissioned to the Walt Disney studio during WWII. War saving certificates were the central subject, with the slogan being "Five for Four". All of them basically used recycled animations from previous productions (i.e. Three Little Pigs, Snow White, etc.) as a time and money-saving effort to get the message out there as soon as possible. Why did they choose Disney for these? Numerous reasons, but the main reason is because they were recognizable to the general consensus. This alone gave an idea of what kind of power motion pictures had to influence audiences during the war.
Here's a thing for you the time that you exist you shoot on the time before that you existed and think that your time is better than the time before but everyone forgets who taught those now the ones in the past teachers the way things are looking now everything's going to be way worse in the future
The value and perniciousness of government-funded propaganda has never been more on show in Canada than now. The appearance of this document now is almost coincidental. #Plandemic
I am just happy you posted something new. I really appreciate your channel: incomparable.
