[ecrea] Animation Studies CFP

   CALL FOR PAPERS - /Animation Studies/

Society for Animation Studies members are invited to submit conference 
papers from conferences they participated in, especially SAS conferences 
past and present in the growing subject area of animation studies. 
Non-members are welcome to submit papers, but must join the society 
before an accepted paper can be published. (Membership details available 
at animationstudies.org <http://animationstudies.org>).

All papers are subject to peer review and presentation; acceptance of a 
paper at a conference is not a guarantee of publication. If a paper is 
accepted for a conference but not presented it can still be considered, 
subject to agreement by the editorial board.

Papers will be blind refereed where possible and comments collated and 
returned to the author by the editor.

The journal editions run on an annual basis with papers accepted 
throughout the year but the volume closed on calendar year end. In order 
to simplify the refereeing and submission, papers will be accepted at 
deadlines throughout the year. We invite authors to submit papers in 
spring and late summer/early autumn at specified CFP deadlines.

We strongly encourage the submission of past papers in order to 
establish a useful archive of work which members can access. We also 
encourage the submission of links to other publications or bibliographic 
citations where conference papers have been published elsewhere.

Papers are not limited to word length, though it is expected that the 
paper will not exceed that of the presentation, or a reasonable 
approximation of it. Authors may edit their conference presentations, 
but the text must provide a reasonable representation of the material 
presented at the conference.

Images are welcomed but authors must seek permissions to reproduce them 
in the journal. Rights owners must be identified in the caption, in the 
manner specified by the rights owner in a release form signed by that 
individual. Articles are published under Creative Commons regulations, 
which allows the author to retain copyright but allows free distribution 
of the work for educational purposes. Creative Commons is in line with 
progressive online publishing practices.

The Harvard Referencing system will be used. All papers should be 
submitted in Microsoft Word document files (.doc) or Rich Text Format 
(.rtf). Please submit images in low resolution, web-ready formats.

Email your essay, including a cover page stating your name, your 
institutional affiliation (now and at the time of the paper 
presentation), the name of the paper, the conference at which it was 
published, the date of presentation (or conference dates), four to seven 
keywords pertaining to the article, a one- to two-sentence blurb, and 
any significant information related to the editing of the paper. Please 
also provide contact information suitable for publication with the paper.

*Deadline for papers is Monday 29^th August*. Submit all proposals to Dr 
Nichola Dobson, Editor at (journal /at/ animationstudies.org) 
<mailto:(journal /at/ animationstudies.org)> or (nichola_dobson /at/ yahoo.co.uk)
