Mon Aug 08 07:05:48 GMT 2022




/Tecmerin. Journal of Audiovisual Essays/ launches its CFP for issue 10. It is a biannual, peer-reviewed journal, which also offers a monographic dossier each year. This journal is published by the research group Tecmerin (Television, Cinema, Memory, Representation and Industry) of Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (Department of Media).

*Special Topic:* In issue 10 we propose a special section dedicated to video essays related to the theme "Women in contemporary cinema and TV" that revolve around the participation of women in the field of film and television creation. Works with a historical perspective or focusing on the representation of women in the media will also be welcomed. Section curated by Ana Mejón, Elena Ortega Oroz and Asier Gil Vázquez (Universidad Carlos III de Madrid).

*Ordinary call*: Issue 10 keeps its ordinary open call of works that focus on Spanish and Latin American cultural production, although not exclusively. Consequently, we especially invite scholars, researchers and creators to send pieces centered on the production, consumption, circulation and cultural exchange within these geographical areas.

*Instructions for authors:*

Researchers and creators may send their audiovisual essays to one of the following sections:

 1. Special topic: proposals related to women's participation in the
    media, especially film and television.
 2. Video-Essays: audiovisual essays that offer a critical take on
    diverse aspects of cinema, television and popular culture.
 3. Creators: experimental or documentary pieces that approach a
    specific cultural topic, as long as it is related to the history of
    audiovisual media.

Video-Essays must be uploaded on VIMEO, as private. Each author will send the following information to this email (tecmerinrevista /at/ uc3m.es) <mailto:(tecmerinrevista /at/ uc3m.es)>:

 1. Vimeo url address.
 2. Password for video.
3. 500-800 word text, presenting the video in word format (also anonymous).
 4. Three (3) keywords.
 5. A representative frame captured from the video that could work as
    thumbnail.

*Deadline: October 15, 2022.*

Videos cannot contain the name of the author to facilitate the blind peer review.

Language: Video essays can be in any language with Spanish or/and English subtitles.

Length: the preferred length of the video essays is 10-15 minutes, approximately.

The presentation text must be in Spanish or English. If the video is accepted, we recommend authors to include the presentation text and subtitles both in Spanish and English in order to increase the visibility of their pieces.

*Guidelines for the text of the audiovisual essay*
The text must accompany the audiovisual essay and its purpose is to deepen, in a scientific manner, aspects of the piece, such as the theoretical background of the essay or the justification of the analysis. In no case should it be a transcription of the voice-over used in the video essay, and it should avoid reiterating the information seen in the audiovisual essay. This text must establish a dialogue with other previous theoretical proposals, so it is necessary to reference the works it is based on. These references should appear as in-text citations and in a bibliography at the end of the text (which does not fall within the 500-800 word limit). It is also pertinent to add a filmography with the titles referred to in the text or used in the audiovisual essay.Both bibliographical and filmographic references must follow the APA rules (7th edition),


Authors who publish an audiovisual essay will have to wait 1 year to publish again.
