*Special issue: ‘Screenwriting and Animation’*

Guest editors: Paul Wells (Loughborough University, UK) and Chris 
Pallant (Canterbury Christ Church University, UK)

The/Journal of Screenwriting/is dedicating a special edition to the 
particular practices of scriptwriting, storyboarding, devising and 
pre-production in Animation and its related moving image practices.

These may include both analogue and digital approaches to text formation 
and construction, but should formally reference and acknowledge their 
particular condition as an animated film, TV episode, visual effect, 
interstitial, commercial, documentary insert or text, game, application, 
etc.

The editors are seeking a range of approaches to this topic, and would 
particularly welcome contributions from the following:

·      Screenwriters / Practitioners addressing the particularities of 
writing for animation.

·      Screenwriters / Practitioners deconstructing and analysing their 
own scripts / storyboards / pre-production materials,

·      Screenwriters / Practitioners engaging with pertinent approaches 
to writing for various platforms, different contexts of broadcasting and 
exhibition, and for a range of techniques.

The editors are also seeking:

·      Analyses of Animation Screenplays / Storyboards

·      Analyses of Screenwriting Theory pertinent to Animation

·      Analyses of Animation Production Methods and Processes

·      Analyses of Animation Auteurs and Screenwriters

·      Analyses of Animation Genres

These are merely guidelines and areas of enquiry, and all suggestions 
for approaches to this topic are welcome and can be discussed informally 
with the editors.

All articles will include a 250-word abstract, short biography and 
keywords, and should be sent to the co-editors of this issue, Paul Wells 
((P.Wells /at/ lboro.ac.uk) <mailto:(P.Wells /at/ lboro.ac.uk)>) and Chris Pallant
