[ecrea] New Book: Locating the Moving Image

Now available from Indiana University Press:

Locating the Moving Image
New Approaches to Film and Place
Edited by Julia Hallam and Les Roberts

"This collection breaks new ground for cinema history. Hallam and 
Roberts have gathered some of the foremost scholars who are mapping 
spatial histories of the moving image and the geographies of film 
production, distribution and consumption. Introducing new 
interdisciplinary methods and asking new questions, Locating the Moving 
Image takes film studies into new territory, beyond the boundaries of 
the text and its interpretation, towards an understanding of the 
relationship between culture, spatiality and place." —Richard Maltby, 
Matthew Flinders Distinguished Professor of Screen Studies, Flinders 
University

Leading scholars in the interdisciplinary field of geo-spatial visual 
studies examine the social experience of cinema and the different ways 
in which film production developed as a commercial enterprise, as a 
leisure activity, and as modes of expression and communication. Their 
research charts new pathways in mapping the relationship between film 
production and local film practices, theatrical exhibition circuits and 
cinema going, creating new forms of spatial anthropology. Topics include 
cinematic practices in rural and urban communities, development of 
cinema by amateur filmmakers, and use of GIS in mapping the spatial 
development of film production and cinema going as social practices.
