[Commlist] CFP - Irish Screen Studies

The School of Communication and Media and the Centre for Communication, 
Media, and Cultural Studies at Ulster University are pleased to host the 
annual Irish Screen Studies Seminar (ISSS) at our Belfast campus on the 
7th and 8th of May 2024. This year’s Seminar will feature a keynote 
address by Professor John Hill of Royal Holloway, University of London.

The ISSS (www.irishscreenstudies.com) was founded in 2003. Originally 
known as the Irish Postgraduate Film Research Seminar, the event was 
developed by scholars at Trinity College Dublin and Ulster University as 
a cross-border initiative to connect postgraduate and early career 
researchers in screen studies throughout this island and beyond. For 
more than twenty years, the seminar has been hosted by a variety of 
third-level institutions in Ireland, North and South, and has provided a 
research platform for emerging scholars who have gone on to play key 
international roles in screen scholarship, industry, and popular culture.

The Seminar provides a unique platform for the presentation of new work 
– research, practice, and research through practice – by scholars and 
filmmakers from third level institutions on the island of Ireland, as 
well as those working on Irish screen related topics in other 
universities and colleges worldwide. The seminar is aimed at academic 
researchers and practitioners in film and screen cultures in the 
broadest sense, including audio, film, television, digital media, 
transmedia, video games, and related interdisciplinary activity. The 
ISSS actively promotes the exchange of ideas and offers postgraduate and 
early career researchers and practitioners an ideal opportunity to 
present evolving screen-related research and practice in a constructive 
and encouraging forum.

We invite proposals in all areas of film and screen research. Please 
send abstracts of 250 words and a short bio (max 100 words) to 
(j.carlsten /at/ ulster.ac.uk) by 25 March 2024.

The Board of Irish Screen Studies aims to maintain an inclusive 
organisation open to all individuals. We are committed to preventing any 
form of discrimination on the basis of national origin, race, ethnicity, 
religion, gender, sexual orientation, class, ability, age, contractual 
status, and migration or other legal status.
