[Jonathan Petrychyn]

Dear Festivalists

We're accepting abstracts for pre-constituted panels through August 9!
Film & Media Festivals SIG – Call for Papers, SCMS 2022 (March 31–April 3)

To participate in a pre-constituted panel sponsored by the Film and Media
Festivals SIG, please submit a title no longer than 120 characters, a
summary no longer than 2500 characters, 3-5 bibliographic sources, and an
author bio no longer than 500 characters.
Please copy and paste your proposal into the body of the email message
(avoid sending attachments!) and include in the subject heading “Film
Festival SCMS paper (or workshop) submission.”

The suggested panel/workshop titles/themes are for your consideration. If
you wish, feel free to suggest another! We are providing this service to
help coordinate the papers of the SIG members so that a maximum number have
the best chance of being selected to participate in the conference; this
has proven to be a very successful tactic.

Suggested panel and workshop themes:
Film festival organizing practices
Festival audiences
Festivals and awards
Theorizing American film festivals
Research methods in festival studies
Digital festival practices
Festivals as forums for diversity

How to submit?
Please copy and paste your proposal into the body of the email message (and

*The titles for each panel/workshop will have to be refined once we have
received your proposals and they have been sorted according to some
compelling theme. Only the designated panel chair may submit the final
panel/workshop proposal for all its members.
