Filmmaking in Academia (eBook, PDF)

Practice Research for Filmmakers

• Format: PDF

Produktbeschreibung

Evaluating the existing position of film as research, Filmmaking in Academia offers clear guidance and practical advice from the planning and conception of research films to the making, evaluation, dissemination and impact of practice-based research.

This book aspires to serve as a guide for new and current researchers in screen-based media and creative practice. It seeks to explore the scope, definitions, methodologies, and interdisciplinary (and post-disciplinary) nature of film research projects. Author Agata Lulkowska focuses on how to manage potential challenges when artistic creativity meets research requirements, emphasising how finding the middle ground that serves both purposes often requires redesigning brand-new methodological approaches. Looking specifically at the publication routes for research films, the book highlights current dissemination practices and raises the question of impact throughout to re-contextualise current publication methodologies for practice-based projects.

This exciting new work provides key reading for graduate students, academics, and filmmakers looking to move into academia.

Rezensionen

'This timely book brilliantly addresses the rising significance of creative practice research. Even beyond filmmaking disciplines, its rich theoretical insights and practical discussions offer immense value. Stemming from years of hands-on experience and profound conceptual engagement, it's an essential read for newcomers and seasoned researchers alike. A commendable addition to the debate.'
