[ecrea] call for articles : Cinematograph for industries and in companies (1890 - 1970)

Cinematograph for industries and in companies (1890-1970): history, 
players, uses and configurations

This special issue of /Cahiers d’histoire du Cnam/ looks at gathering 
contributions on industrial and business uses of cinema, from 
strategical choices such as widening the activities of firms (Antoine 
Lumière and sons’ “Society for photographic plates and papers”/Société 
de plaques et papiers photographiques), and industrializing sound 
recording (Pathé brothers company in the 1890s) or optical and 
photographic materials (L. Gaumont company in 1895), to transformations 
brought by the generalization of television then video in the 1970s. It 
aims at exploring ways in which industry and companies have used the 
cinematograph, as well as modes of organization and production this uses 
have generated.

Scholars studying from the perspective of cultural history, history of 
technology, history of economy, media and communication (non-exhaustive 
list) are welcome. Although the call is mostly rooted in French history, 
international perspectives are very welcome as well.

Proposals should be submitted until October 22nd to 
(chcnam_cinema /at/ gmail.com) <mailto:(chcnam_cinema /at/ gmail.com)>. Full articles 
are expected by January 19th, 2019. The issue is set to be released in 
Fall 2019.
