Besides the Screen seeks to make an intervention into film and screen studies by examining and considering the elements of cinematic experience, production and dissemination that exist beside the screen. New media technologies impact cinema well beyond the screen; they also promote the reorganization of its logic of distribution, modes of consumption and viewing regimes. This publication speculates about the changes in modes of accessing, distributing, storing and promoting moving images and how they might affect cinematographic experience, economy and historiography. In doing so, Besides the Screen examines three key themes: distribution, promotion and curation. The volume's main argument is that we must examine those practices that exist besides the screen if we are to consider fully how filmic experience is mediated by various technological and societal changes in the early decades of the twenty-first century.
Industry Reviews
'Besides the Screen brings together a new generation of media scholars with a shared purpose: to excavate the practices that frame the moving image as it undergoes its most profound transition since the invention of television. From viral marketing to video-on-demand, from arthouse to primetime TV, from Q&A sessions to VJing, and from Croatia to Taiwan distributing, promoting and caring for audiovisual culture, as archive and as live event and living culture are being made anew. They demand a new mode of critical thinking. This book is a powerful introduction to a new way of thinking the new media landscape.' - Sean Cubitt, Goldsmiths, University of London, UK
