[ecrea] conference: 7th screenwriting research network international conference - screenwriting & directing audiovisual media

 7TH SCREENWRITING RESEARCH NETWORK INTERNATIONAL CONFERENCE
Screenwriting & Directing audiovisuaL Media

OCTOBER 16 – 19, 2014
at Film University Babelsberg Konrad Wolf



Researchers, authors and directors will present and discuss the relationship

between writing and directing for audio-visual media today, in the past, 
and in

the future – for Cinema, TV, fi ctional and non-fi ctional, Games and 
cross-media

productions.

Screenwriting research is a relatively new fi eld in media studies. The 
Network

was initiated and established at the University of Leeds in 2006. 
Screenwriting,

the generation of ideas, and the process of development of screen ideas,

are complex collaborative creative activities. Researchers in the fi eld 
discuss

questions about existing and future industrial practices, structures, 
and power,

about cultural variation and infl uence, and about individual taste, 
judgement

and habitus.

A screenplay is both a process and a product, surrounded by industrial

convention, and rarely questioned as an appropriate industrial tool. The 
value

of research activity on screenwriting is important both for 
practitioners and for

theorists, if indeed these can be separated. It lies in the 
comprehensive critical

analysis of the screenplay format, and of screen idea development practices,

from diff erent informed viewpoints, in mapping conventional practice, 
and in the

possible development of potential forms of expression and documentation of

the screen idea, outside current conventions.


The conference is open to the public. Please register by sending an
