[ecrea] PhD Studentship - Cross Platform Media Practices

> PhD research studentship: Cross Platform Media Practices.
>
> The UK's only HEFCE funded Centre for Excellence in Media Practice 
> (CEMP) at Bournemouth University in association with leading new 
> media company, Magic Lantern Productions, are seeking an outstanding 
> doctoral candidate for a 3-year PhD studentship focused on the 
> emerging area of cross platform media practices.  Cross platform 
> practices are now impacting on contemporary media commissioning, 
> production, reception and more traditional areas of scholarship and 
> learning are being influenced by new theoretical responses, and this 
> project will make a significant contribution to this area.
>
> The project will be supervised by Professor Stephen Heppell, and the 
> successful candidate will work closely with Magic Lantern 
> Productions and in particular its CEO Professor Anthony Lilley, who 
> is also a Visiting Professor at Bournemouth University, in realising 
> defined research outcomes. Applicants will be required to take a 
> lead from these broad areas in order to shape and define their own research:
>
>
>  *   How does a brand, a community, a piece of screened material, a 
> visual artefact, a narrative, work effectively on and across 
> different media platforms?
>  *   How do cross-platform techniques, practices and policies vary 
> according to genre, demographic, culture and initial exhibition technology?
>  *   How do cross-platform commissioners make aspirations and 
> prospects a reality?
>
> This is very much a space for the candidate to embrace, mould and 
> inhabit through their research. We would welcome fresh approaches to 
> the doctoral process that exemplify cross media processes.
>
