 It is the form of a duration around 90
 minutes with three acts that does define the cinematic form.

This is so wrong it's not funny.

The length criterion (not to mention the absurd narrative-biased three
act structure criterion) completely disregards almost the entire
avant-garde movement, many films of which are decidedly more cinematic
than the narrative films you see to think define cinema (see Brakhage,
Breer, Mekas, Deren, VanDerBeek, Fischinger, Richter, and so on). It
also disregards masterpieces like 'Les Vampires' (399 min), Tarr's
'Sátántangó' (450 min), Lanzmann's 'Shoah' (544 min), and Rivette's
'Out 1' (729 min). I can assure you that these are among the most
cinematic films of all time.

The three act structure criterion doesn't just disregard films from
the avant-garde, either, but narrative films with one act (short
films), two acts ('Sleuth'), four ('Shoah'), more ('Playtime'), and so
on, as well. Again, all incredibly cinematic films.

Your definition of cinematic form seems to me to speak only of your
very limited understanding of everything that cinema is and can be.

It's like saying that literature is defined by novels of approximately
four hundred pages in length, as opposed to by words, any number of
them, arranged to make meaning, or to create aesthetic effect, no
more, no less.

It's like saying that music is defined by four quarter time
compositions that run for approximately three or four minutes and have
lyrics, often which rhyme, as opposed to by sounds, arranged by tone,
timbre, quality, and so on, for any length of time, again for some
sort of aesthetic effect, pleasurable or intentionally otherwise.

It's like saying that visual art is defined by one type of paint, on
canvas, hung on a wall somewhere in France, as opposed to by shapes,
colours, textures, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.

You see where I'm going.

Cinema is not defined--not in any way, shape or form--by films with
ninety minute running times and three act (narrative) structures.

It is defined by moving images (occasionally accompanied by sounds)
existing (they don't even have to be arranged) in time. Cinema is
time-based images.

This post has nothing to do with videoblogging (it could, but I'm
tired and want to go to bed), but I'll stand up for cinema until my
bloody, no doubt premature death. All I can say is that if our
definitions of videoblogging are as restrictive and reductive as this
definition of cinema, then we're simply not the right people to be
developing it--in fact, I'd argue that we'd be hindering it far more
than we'd be helping it.

i can't say i agree with that enric

i think vlogs are more like canvas...

i looked up the definition of canvas a few times
all the ones i found were pretty lame
and they have no bearing on what i might do artistically

canvas is important to me for what it supports and how it can be used, 
not for how it's defined
i am constantly finding new interpretations and uses of canvas

attempting to model what i can do with canvas just seems limiting

however, if you want a good definition of videoblogging, then listen to 
jonny goldstein's recent interview with Douglass Rushkoff

videoblogging is the opportunity missed by current tv

  *Subject:* [videoblogging] Define Videoblogging
 
  There's been a idea that has been promoted to not define
  Videoblogging.  That it is too soon, that defining it will lock it
  down and constrain it, and so on.  The error is that a model,
  definition, thesis is required to test if something is viable.  You
  don't discover something by not applying a model to it, but by testing
  if a proposed model accurately describes the item in question.
 
  The video projects that are interesting and successful whether the
  highly structured Rocket Boom or loosely structured Carp Caviar, have
  a understandable structure.  Experimental films have existed since
  Edison and others invented the technology of filmmaking.  But it
  became a vibrant media once Griffith found and clearly displayed the
  60-120 minute, three act model in Birth of a Nation.  Within that
  clear models of genres and forms -- the science fiction, crime (with
  subgenre of noire), romance (subgenres of romantic-comedy, etc.),
  comedy, etc. sub-models --- resolved into modes of film expression.
 
  It is a mistake to narrowly define an art form.  To say that
  videoblogging is just personal diaries or citizen journalism or
  another type of genre expression.  This is like saying film is
  adventure.  It may be that adventure (or romantic or crime) films are
  the most prevalent genres, but they are not the only genres that can
  exist and are interesting.  It is the form of a duration around 90
  minutes with three acts that does define the cinematic form.  And it
  is a video with blogging capability that may be the correct model that
  different genres of videoblogging exist in.  That model may be
  incomplete or innacurate, but it should be proposed and tested against
  competing models until the correct model is determined.  Saying that
  no model should be tested is quite possibly a recipe for floundering
  and stagnation.

RSS, OPML, HTTP are imperfect standards.  But they're quite useful.  A
model not need to be general to the point that it must fit every
possibility present and to the future.  Some models are more useful
when defining the general qualities of a subject and leaving out the
outliers.  It's not a crime to have models (or to skateboard.)

And I'm not saying it is. And I'm still not talking about videoblogging.

You didn't say that a certain form was or could be a model for a
certain type of cinema, Enric, you said that a certain form defined
cinema. Whether you like it or not, this is wrong.

If nothing else, you're confusing models and definitions.

A definition is a statement conveying the fundamental character of a
thing. The fundamental character of the cinema is images existing in
time, not ninety minute narratives with three acts. That's the
fundamental character of but one of many possible models for many
possible types of cinema, not cinema itself, which is what you said.

A model is work, construction, or in this case, schema, that serves as
a plan from which a final product is to be made. It has nothing to do
with fundamental characteristics of a thing, but with the imposition
of paradigmatic reductions and limitations on those characteristics,
with specifics.

I agree that models--both in practice and in theory--can be valuable
to videoblogging as to any art, as long as they remain models and
don't, as Markus wisely warns, ossify into dogmas. But models are not
definitions, Enric. And your definition of cinema was wrong.

 Oh, so cinema became, as you say, a vibrant media once the
 *distributors* found and clearly displayed the 60-120 minute, three
 act model in 'Birth of a Nation', *not* Griffith, the artist, who you
 originally cited, and whose cut was 187 minutes long.
 
 Okay, cool. I see where you're coming from now. I was obviously
 unaware that the distributors were the ones who were determining what
 forms define cinema. And here I was thinking that artists develop art
 forms!

The fundamental characteristic of videoblogging is time-based images
exisiting in a more or less permeable network context. The more
permeable the better. It's a shame more people don't listen to Adrian
Miles.

If cinema is a phylum, videoblogging is a genus.

Seriously, though, we might say that if videoblogging is a genus, then
the various types of videoblogging (personal, citizen journalism,
experimental, fictional, etc.) are species (which can cross-breed,
obviously) and genres within those types (the usual ones, such as
comedy, drama, etc.) are races, though race isn't really an aspect of
scientific classification (and I wouldn't like to think that it could
be). Maybe videoblogging isn't a genus, but a family, in which case
the type of videoblogging is the genus and genres are species.

Regardless, the analogy doesn't need to be perfect, and, needless,
can't be. It's just fun to talk about videoblogging as if it were a
living creature.

Which, of course, it is.

This is a very controversial film. No doubt there are several different cuts 
floating around 
out there.

 Amazon offers eight or nine different prints of this film on video.
 They are of varying prices, and varying run times: I found run times
 of 124min., 125min., 158min., 159min., 190min., and 207min.
 
 Wow, what a great idea. I'd love to be able to order a film at the 
 length I prefer. Imagine King Kong at around 5 minutes. It might even 
 be interesting enough to actually watch.
