Filmography

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

A filmography is a list of films related by some
criteria. For example, an actor's career filmography
is the list of films he or she has appeared in; a
director's comedy filmography is the list of comedy
films directed by a particular director. The term,
which has been in use since at least 1957,[1] is
modeled on and analogous to "bibliography", a list of
books, and is distinct from "videography" and
"cinematography", two mass nouns for processes
within the cinematic arts.
Filmographies are not limited to associations with
particular people. For example, the Handbook of
American Film Genres(1988, ISBN 0-313-24715-3)
includes "19 substantive essays on major
American film genres", each accompanied by a
"valuable selected filmography."[2] In 1998,
the University of Washington sponsored a university-
wide "All Powers Project" which assembled a
filmography of films related to the Cold War Red
Scare, which consisted of "motion pictures that
played a role in fueling the Red Scare, in
propagandizing the threat of Communism and in a
few rare and rather veiled cases, in standing up to
the charges of the House Committee on Un-
American Activities."[3]
Another example is the filmography published by a
library director at Brigham Young University–
Idaho of over 500 films "that in some significant or
memorable way include a library or librarian", a
filmography assembled to better understand
Hollywood's stereotypes of librarians.[4] The Georgia
Department of Economic Development, whose
responsibilities include promoting film production in
the U.S. state of Georgia, maintains a filmography of
such films.[5]
