Industrial Approaches to Media: A Methodological Gateway to Industry Studies



http://www.nottingham.ac.uk/research/groups/isir/projects/industrial-approaches-to-media/index.aspx



Following the launch of Industrial Approaches to Media (IAM), a research 
methods training initiative hosted by the Institute for Screen 
Industries Research at the University of Nottingham, we are pleased to 
announce the latest addition to the resource:



Paul McDonald (Professor of Cinema and Media Industries at the 
University of Nottingham and Founder of the SCMS Media Industries 
Scholarly Interest Group) discusses the sub-field of media industry 
studies and considers its future development.



The above supports existing contributions from Henry Jenkins on the 
practical implications of academia-industry collaboration, Michele 
Hilmes on the changing approaches to media industry studies, and Amanda 
Lotz on the current challenges facing media industry researchers.



IAM is aimed at postgraduate and early career researchers interested in 
engaging with media industry professionals and companies to produce 
collaborative research. The resource gathers blogs and interviews with 
scholars exploring methodological perspectives on the value and 
challenges of doing media industry studies and forming industry-academia 
collaborations. For more information about IAM please contact Matthew 
Freeman at (aaxmaf /at/ nottingham.ac.uk).







* A small number of spaces are still available to attend the IAM 
research methods training event at the University of Nottingham on 
Thursday 5th June. Bringing together media industry professionals and 
established academics, the event will be comprised of presentations and 
workshops covering practical and theoretical topics on: Interviewing 
Media Professionals, Knowledge Transfer between Media and Academia, and 
The Ethics and Politics of Media Engagement.



To register your attendance please contact Matthew Freeman 
((aaxmaf /at/ nottingham.ac.uk)).

Lunch and a wine reception will also be provided. The event is free but 
places are limited.
