[Commlist] CFP: Film Audience Conference - Oxford Brookes University
Tue Feb 11 08:12:06 GMT 2020
Film Audience Movements and Migrations: Across Borders and Screens
6-7 April 2020
Headington Hill Hall, Oxford Brookes University
This conference, organised by The Audience Project (TAP)
interdisciplinary research group, focuses on academic scholarship and
industry practices in film distribution, engagement and consumption. The
event takes place at a vital moment in time when physical mobility,
competition in the exhibition business and opportunities for access of
audiovisual products through new technologies are all rising
exponentially. The conference, however, aims to explore not only the
contemporary environment of fluctuation but also the historical and
future contexts for peoples’ movement (local, national and
international) and their relation to filmic screens. It features
international experts across academia (including sociology, history,
media, communication and culture, film and television studies) and
industry (media businesses, cultural institutions and government
bodies). It provides a unique forum for new and topical scholarly
research in the field as well as the opportunity to share research and
know-how from a multitude of (inter-)national perspectives, initiating
future collaborations across borders, disciplines and sectors.
