[Commlist] cfp: International Symposium of Cinema and Film Analysis (Online)

Call for Papers - I International Symposium of Cinema and Film Analysis 
(Online)     17-19 November 2021
Submission Deadline: August 29th, 2021
We are delighted to invite proposals from academic researchers to be 
presented at the I International Symposium of Cinema and Film Analysis; 
organized by the CNPq research group CineArte – Cinema, Film Analysis, 
and Intellectual Experience.

The event will be held online from 17-19 November 2021, and our goal is 
to deepen and broaden the exchange between research works centered on 
film analysis by gathering different perspectives, observing the 
outcomes when selecting different theoretical approaches and 
methodologies, and seeing how film language can be intertwined with 
numerous fields of study.
We are interested in the moving image studies, sound, film analysis 
definitions, case studies, changes throughout the time, and debates 
centered beyond movies, such as the interchange between other fields of 
study within the Arts and Human Sciences.   The Symposium is a result of 
an interdisciplinary exchange between researchers who investigate the 
relationship between cinema, audiovisual, by selecting film analysis as 
a methodology within different usages and contexts. Structured as a 
subject between 1960 and 1970, film analysis divides and reconstitutes 
meanings within audiovisual products. Between the twentieth and the 
twenty-first century, we can identify different branches of it: François 
Jost and André Gaudreault's narratology, David Bordwell and Kristin 
Thompson's narrative and style analyses, Jacques Aumont's immanent 
perspective, Laura Mulvey's feminist film theory that investigated the 
male gaze through the psychoanalysis and also her counter cinema 
proposal, Eisenstein's montage, the interchange between art history and 
style, formal aesthetics, social and historical perspectives, 
allegories, among others.   Considering the ongoing and broad debates 
within film analysis, we invite proposals within four different 
approaches. Possible topics might include (but are not limited to):

1. Film theory, case studies, and film analysis. Theoretical studies 
questioning the concepts and the kind of analysis. These papers may be 
drawn from canonic film theories and also other fields of study. Film 
analysis as a tool to investigate specific audiovisual products.

2. Intersections between audiovisual and other arts. Different 
epistemologies and approaches emerged from the intersection between 
films and other art forms, concepts, and audiovisual objects created in 
the space between the edge of cinema and other arts. Methodological 
challenges to instigate possible debates between the avant-garde films, 
modern films and flux cinema, and their connection with paintings, 
photography, and theater. Conceptual interactions between theory and art 
history.

3. Female gaze and feminism. Feminist film studies, female authorship, 
films and gender, feminism and modernity, female star system.

4. The politics, the engagement, and the criticism: film analysis and 
its interfaces. Theoretical contributions developed by eminent critics, 
critical studies and resistance as the foreground of interpretative 
constructions and historical contexts, the critics' tasks such as 
creating theories that relate the movies to the society, film analysis' 
usage of the critical studies tools, investigation centering the 
politics; including urban conflicts, socio-environmental problems, 
minority group issues, or other perspectives about the country.
