Film and Screen Studies Cluster

Description

Film and Screen Studies researchers in the School of Film, Media and Journalism pursue a wide range of enquiries into stardom, national and transnational cinemas, broadcasting and children’s television, issues of exclusion and marginalization and questions of representations of race, gender and sexuality. Although diverse, the projects are imbricated as a broad engagement with who is speaking in what ways to whom, and who are excluded from or relegated to the margins of culture in the system of representation. Enquiries into Italian women stars’ career trajectories in Hollywood and female fandom overlap and inform projects on Hungarian cinematic nation building, exploitation cinema and youth-oriented British TV programming. Audience and star studies, archival research and textual analysis, national and transnational cinema theory are amongst approaches taken and reflect the member's breadth of supervision interests and openness to collaborative, innovative and transdisciplinary approaches to research.
