About [in]Transition

[in]Transition: Journal of Videographic Film & Moving Image Studies is the first academic journal of its kind. The open peer-reviewed journal encourages scholars to write using the very materials that constitute their objects of study—moving images and sounds—and publishes work that contributes to both the knowledge of film and media studies and the videographic form. The journal was awarded the 2015 Anne Friedberg Award for Innovative Scholarship of Distinction by the Society for Cinema and Media Studies (SCMS). Established in 2014 as a project of MediaCommons and Journal of Cinema and Media Studies (then known as Cinema Journal), as of 2024, [in]Transition is published by the Open Library of Humanities (OLH) and owned by SCMS.

Volume 12 • Issue 2 • 2025

Welcome to [in]Transition’s second issue of 2025, 12.2. This issue features eight peer-reviewed videographic works that focus on a variety of film and moving image studies topics: theatrical presence in Bergman's Hour of the Wolf and Lynch's Mulholland Drive, women’s domestic labor in seven Latin American films, Hungarian director Miklós Jancsó’s idiosyncratic film style, the star wipe as marginal and forgotten media artifact, Hollywood’s imagining of Abraham Lincoln, and two pieces on horror: hidden horror in romantic melodramas of Yeşilçam (Turkish cinema), and crochet across a range of horror films.

We extend a sincere thank you to all of our peer reviewers. We appreciate their hard work and constructive feedback, ensuring that each submission is as strong as it can be. We also eagerly welcome new reviewers; if you are interested in reviewing for our journal, please contact us.
