[Commlist] CFPosters Postgraduate Research Poster Showcase

*Call for Posters: BAFTSS Postgraduate Research Poster Showcase 2020: 
Rethinking Screen Cultures Conference at the University of St Andrews. 
16-18 April 2020*

The BAFTSS Executive Committee would like to invite postgraduate members 
to showcase their doctoral research during the BAFTSS 2020conference 
onRethinking Screen Cultures at the University of St Andrews (16-18 
April 2020) <https://www.baftss.org/conf-2019>.  We will host a display 
of research posters in a central space at the conference, and offer a 
prize of £100 to the research poster that is considered to be most 
successful by the conference delegates. Our aim is to provide a 
structured yet comfortable forum for scholarly exchange, while promoting 
the visibility of the research being conducted within our postgraduate 
community.

*Guidelines: *The key to a successful poster is to distill your research 
into brief text and a clear design that will spark the interest of 
conference delegates and facilitate conversation with them.  We are 
looking for a snapshot of your research that engages an audience with 
the broad lines rather than the forensic detail of your arguments. We 
are looking for a good balance between text and visuals, and want your 
poster to be the platform for further discussion with delegates inspired 
to find out more about your work.  Please see some examples of 
successful research posters
