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.

Welcome to [in]Transition’s fourth issue of 2024, 11.4. This issue features a variety of peer-reviewed videographic work focused on a fascinating array of film and moving image studies topics: queer spectatorship and queer identity in Laurence Anyways; a desktop documentary on computer sabotage and its archival traces; a reflection on listening as an embodied experience; an analysis of how the sight of vampires is visually represented; an inquiry on the role of pop music in fanvids and, more broadly, in media criticism; a videographic correspondence on (or with?) Jean-Luc Godard; an investigation of female subjectivity in socialist cinema; a reflection on the unexpected intersections between a Scottish football club and trans/national film productions; an exploration of unfulfilled love stories; and a rumination on racism, film materiality, and spectatorial agency.

As usual, we welcome new submissions.

We would also like to take a moment to thank all of our peer reviewers. We appreciate their hard work and constructive feedback. That being said, we would also eagerly welcome new reviewers. If you are interested in reviewing for our journal, please contact us.
