Dial S for Screen Studies
November 28th and 29th 2019
Level 3 Robert Webster Building UNSW, Sydney Australia
In 2019 we have invited presenters to speak to one of two streams: Current Approaches to Screen Theory and Futures of Screen-based Creative Practice.
Across two days, experts in screen theory and screen practice from across Australia will present on a number of topics, including:
- Cinemas of national past
- The gaze
- Exhibition and festivals
- Genre and cinema: neon-noir, sci-fi and the western
- Auteurs
- Narratives of heroes and villains
- Female filmmaking and transnational cinemas
- Performance and celebrity, and
- Two panels on the futures of screen-based creative practice
In addition to these highly engaging panels, there will a number of workshops on:
- Animation and history
- Screenwriting
- Cognitive media theory, and
- Futurity: theories of screen’s future, the future of screen theory and practice
We are also very fortunate to have Professor Sue Turnbull from the University of Wollongong presenting a keynote on:
‘This is Your Worst Nightmare’: Reimagining Screen Entertainment and the Practice of Audiencing
With so much on offer Dial S for Screen Studies is a must for anyone who has an interest in screen practice and research.
