[ecrea] [in]Transition: Journal of Videographic Film and Moving Image Studies

I am writing to inform you about the recent launch of [in]Transition, a 
new open access periodical, co-edited Christian Keathley, Drew Morton and I.


[in]Transition – a collaboration between MediaCommons and the Society 
for Cinema and Media Studies’ official publication Cinema Journal – is 
the first peer-reviewed academic journal of videographic film and moving 
image studies. [in]Transition has a highly distinguished editorial board 
and is project-managed for MediaCommons by Jason Mittell and for Cinema 
Journal by Chris Becker, CJ's online editor.

You can read more about the project here, and about videographic film 
studies and its lineage more generally in the Resources page here. The 
curated videos in issue 1 include Laura Mulvey’s motion study of Marilyn 
Monroe, kogonada’s essay on neorealism, Benjamin Sampson’s exploration 
of Orson Welles’ F for Fake, and Thomas Elsaesser, Anne Bachmann and 
Jonas Moberg’s compilation video series entitled ‘Bergman’s Senses’.



One of the main goals of this journal, in its first year and beyond, is 
to generate discourse and understanding about audiovisual moving image 
studies, and we would very much like to be able to count on the insights 
and questions of our viewers/readers in this particular aspect of our 
project. So please visit the journal website and see whether you'd like 
to record any of your thoughts -- about the scholarly and expressive 
possibilities of such videos, and about how peer review processes might 
work best in relation to them -- in the form of comments on the 
curatorial notes by the editors.

You can also watch video recordings (linked to below) of the SCMS 
conference workshop on Visualizing Media Studies, on March 20th, which 
launched [in]Transition, with contributions by Chris Becker, Drew 
Morton, me, Christian Keathley, Matthias Stork, Benjamin Sampson, Jason 
Mittell, and a very lively and interested audience. This session was 
livestreamed and then archived for online viewing.
