[Commlist] symposium CFPractice - Filmmaking in the Academy

REMINDER:
Filmmaking in the Academy: Practice/Theory Interventions Friday 12 June
DEADLINE: 27 March

This one-day symposium is a celebration of filmmaking in the academy, 
where practice researchers screen their work and the research dimensions 
are critically explored with a mixed panel of established, early career 
and PGR researchers from both practice and traditional film studies 
backgrounds. We invite practitioners to submit films and moving image 
works readily available to view online (can be password protected), 
together with a 300-word research statement and links to supporting 
documentation, if applicable (echoing REF guidelines for practice research).

The organisers will then make selected work available to an invited 
panel of respondents: Dr Jacqueline Maingard (Co-convener of the Screen 
Research Cluster, University of Bristol), Professor Andrew Spicer 
(Professor of Cultural Production, UWE Bristol and UoA 34 Lead) and 
Professor Phil Powrie (Professor of Cinema Studies, University of 
Surrey), who are all interested in engaging critically with practice 
research from different disciplines.

At the event the work will be screened with a brief presentation, 
followed by peer review, which will be performed live at the event in an 
informal, friendly and constructive environment. Together with the 
filmmakers, and the audience, the panel will aim to probe the 
Significance, Rigour and Originality and contribution to new knowledge 
of the presented works from a variety of theoretical frameworks, 
including textual analysis, screen industries and genre studies - with a 
view to supporting the contributors in honing the way in which they 
articulate their practice as research for REF2021 and beyond.

Practice work, statements and the resulting conversations could be 
written up and submitted as a strand to BAFTSS online journal Open Screens.
The aims of the event are threefold:

1. to provide a supportive space to communicate the value of practice 
research to a mixed
audience of practice and non-practice researchers in preparation for REF21
2. to act as a pilot for a potential strand at future BAFTSS Annual 
Conferences to avoid
practice speaking only to practice
3. to encourage colleagues to submit practice for consideration by the 
journal.
