[ecrea] Call for Papers: 22nd International Screen Studies Conference, 29th June- 1st July 2012, University of Glasgow, Scotland

The 22nd International Screen Studies Conference is organised by 
/Screen/ journal and will be programmed by /Screen/ editor Karen Lury.
We invite papers on any topic in screen studies, i.e. cinema, television 
and digital media. Submissions for pre-formed three-person panels will 
be considered but not prioritised.
*'Other Cinemas' *will be the subject of the plenaries and will form a 
strand running throughout the conference.
*Confirmed keynote speakers*
Charles Acland (Concordia University), editor of /Useful Cinema /(2011)
Elizabeth Lebas (Middlesex University), author of /Forgotten Futures: 
British Municipal Cinema 1920-1980 /(2011)
Looking into the past and the future of cinema has inspired increasing 
academic interest in films and film-making practices that are generally 
considered to be outside the 'mainstream' of commercial cinema.
/Screen/ wishes to encourage presentations that engage with these 'Other 
Cinemas'. This might involve:
. 'Amateur' films;
. Educational cinema;
. Industrial films;
. Films produced for and distributed via different web platforms;
. Experimental or avant-garde work;
. 'Sponsored' films (municipal cinema, health films).
The deadline for proposals is _*Friday, 13th January 2012*_. Please 
visit _http://www.gla.ac.uk/services/screen/conference2012/_ for full 
submission details.
