>Chers collègues, liebe Kollege/inn/en, queridos/as colegas, dear colleagues:
>In recognition of the increasing globalization of our profession as well 
>as of the objects we study, the Society is for the first time moving its 
>annual conference to London, in the hope of deepening and strengthening 
>our dialogue with colleagues in Europe, both established and young 
>scholars. We would like to see proposals on the current state of 
>film/television/new media theory, history and criticism from 
>national/international/transnational perspectives and other relevant 
>topics. We will consider proposals for papers, panels and workshops. The 
>bi-continental planning committee hopes that panel and workshop proposals 
>will, whenever suitable, include participants from both sides of the 
>Atlantic; we urge you to keep this in mind as you prepare your panel and 
>workshop proposals. To encourage the widest possible interest in 
>attending, we have highlighted some standard procedures, formats and 
>deadlines. The complete description, as well as the URLs for downloading 
>application and payments, can be found at

>responsible for introducing panelists, keeping individual presentations 
>within the 20-minute time limit and facilitating discussions among 
>presenters and the audience.
>
>  For panel proposals, use the format provided online at 
> <http://www.cmstudies.org/abstract_forms.html>http://www.cmstudies.org/abstract_forms.html, 
> under the heading Panel. Include one Paper SAF for each paper within the 
> panel. Panels should have at least three presenters, but no more than 
> four. Submit in e-mail format directly to 
> <mailto:(office /at/ cmstudies.org)>(office /at/ cmstudies.org). Please do not send the 
> proposal as an attachment.
>

> format provided on line at

>  Deadlines:  September 15-Proposal Submission
>
>January 21-Membership in Society and Conference Early Registration Deadline
>
>  No late proposals will be accepted. All proposals should be submitted 
> and presented in English. To maximize participation, individuals are 
> limited to one proposal, and can only serve in two capacities.  Thus, one 
> can: 1) deliver a paper and chair a panel, 2) deliver a paper and 
> participate in a workshop, 3) deliver a paper and serve as a respondent, 
> 4) chair a workshop and serve as a respondent, or 5) chair a panel and 
> participate in a workshop.  The panel respondent usually possesses 
> specialized knowledge of the panel's topic, has read all of the papers 
> prior to the conference and tries to draw out particular lines of thought 
> or inquiry to arrive at a broader conclusion.
>
>  The decisions of the program committee are final. Because of the large 
> number of participants it is not possible for the program committee to 
> consider special requests for times or days for presentations.  For 
> additional information contact Jane Dye or Debbie Rush at: 
> <mailto:(office /at/ cmstudies.org)>(office /at/ cmstudies.org).

>Sincerely,
