Australian and New Zealand Cinema
Call for Papers

Post Script: Essays in Film and Humanities is calling for contributors for a special issue on 'Australian and New Zealand Cinema'. The issue seeks to establish new approaches to film production and film culture in each country, with proposals welcome on any period of cinema. Proposals are particularly encouraged which consider or contrast themes and issues relevant to both cinemas; on the ideas of globalisation, postcolonialism, neo-colonialism, and the post-national; the representation of the 'other', and the relationship with cultures from the Asia-Pacific rim, including America; the value of local film technology and effects production; and on neglected film forms such as animation, the short film, the avant-garde and experimental. Also encouraged are book reviews up to 1000 words in length on any relevant publications of the last few years.

Articles should be previously unpublished, no longer than 24 pages, double-spaced, and incluing documentation (MLA preferred). Submit three hard copies of your manuscript, plus one disk copy (in Word) format. Include a SAE for return of manuscripts and disk, should that be necessary. Deadline: June 1 2003.
