40 days and 40 nights, he watches documentaries.

He likes to learn about the world.

It's Derek's Documentaries.

Derek's

Documentaries.

Man, first day back in a while and our producer is right on the money.

There you go.

Absolutely.

Um, we can talk about some of the, it was a nominee for Outstanding Directorial Achievement in Documentary by the DGA, the Directors Guild.

Oh, wow.

Um, so it was on the shortlist for, um, Documentary of the Year that year.

Didn't, didn't get nominated for Academy Award, but-

[tsking] Yeah

那么基本上他整个节目都是不断地这样，就讲，讲啦，在讲回不同人对这个，呃，就是超人的看法啦，以及他们，呃，受超人影响的东西啦，这样，主要都是这些部分。那么当然他会有涉小小那些，呃，真是超人，啊，当年的那些片段啦，就是包括幕后片段啦，以及这个，呃，就是正，正片的那些片段啦，和 Ultra Q 那些他都有，有播一点点，然后又涉回几句这样讲下，就是所谓超人的缘起啊那些东西啦。那么但那些占很小部分而已。

他是用一个很感性的方法来做的，这个 documentary，就不像那些新闻片这样的。

是啊。

那么他是将他们的东西呢，一人讲几句，然后他又会有些片段这样衬着一些音乐这样，就是，就是你是不会听他一嘴巴说的，每个人都是讲几句-

讲几句，然后他叉讲几句，但是他讲的几句可能大家又好像呼应这样的。

是。

然后他就拍回一点点，就是那些东西，他是这样的，就是其实就很，很感性的，那个 documentary，就不是一个资讯那类的。

是。

Or in newspapers.

Or you have seen in documentaries.

Cosas que probablemente a estas alturas ha leído cientos de veces de otros sobrevivientes en el mismo foro, en periódicos y revistas o ha visto en documentales.

Suena sincera y genuina.

They're just going to keep taking.

So to me, I was like really struck by that as like, as if we're talking about documentary films, this is like one of the important things about it is just being there in the absence of, conventional journalism, even local news.

Maybe some of this was covered and it just isn't there.

Maybe there's some footage of union leaders speaking that maybe is taken from somewhere else.

estomp your little last season Prada shoes on me, honey.

Outtakes is the home of queer cinema and television on Joy 94.9 and it's Conrad, Dimitra and Alastair with you and we have a very lucky dip type of show for you featuring a review of a new fashion documentary featured in this year's St Ali Italian Film Festival plus we have interviews with two academics about queer Australian film and television content and we hear from an emerging filmmaker looking at women and gender diverse people in the construction sector.

Very mixed bag.

Up first, Amani and the Birth of Italian Fashion is a star-studded documentary that traces the rise of Italy-style empires through the story of the legendary families that have been ruling it for decades and have defined an era.

We're talking about Amani, Versace, Gucci, Valentino, Missoni, Zegna, Ferragamo, Dolce & Gabbana, Prada, and more.

Set against Milan's lavish and exclusive fashion sanctuaries, amidst ateliers, runways and private retreats, the film explores creative rivalries, personal stories and the enduring love affair between Hollywood and Italian designers.

Armani and the Birth of Italian Fashion is featured in this year's St. Ali Italian Film Festival across Australia this September and October.

Yeah, so I have a number of courses online.

If you go to the website, as you mentioned, it's desktop-documentaries.com. There's a hyphen there.

And I have very recently, in fact, just finished doing a four-part class an overview of all the different kinds of AI for documentary filmmakers, just things you might be interested in.

So the first class is large language models, the second class is video, the third class is images, and the fourth class is audio and music.

There's a couple of books that I've talked about quite a few times on this podcast.

The first one is titled Prehistoric Humans in Film and Television, subtitle 581 Dramas, Comedies and Documentaries, 1905 to 2004.

Have you ever read this book? No way.

No way.
