People and Affiliations
The set of affiliations of individuals represented here was a product of an initiative set up by the Centre for Moving Image Research at the University of the West of England was concerned with creating a Knowledge Exchange Network across the arenas that together form the context for the practice of moving image capture and display. If you find yourself still affiliated with this website and wish to be removed please contact and click this link to mail the administrator of Moving Image Arts Research - however, we would welcome you to stay and contribute to our future.
The original aim was simply to create the ground work for a source of research excellence which is trusted by each of the various sectors that share an interest in sound and image production. The initial mid-term aim was to create an online set of forums that connect members within and across specific groups and disciplines, in discussion spaces specific to subject. These would then be collected together within digests, either daily weekly or monthly. This will also become a shop window of ideas and resources for both undergraduate and postgraduate study.For immediate connection to an active facebook group click here.
We wish to take hold of the opportunities digitality and shortly the quantum, offers - equally we are looking to help redefine and regenerate online publishing so that online platforms become as viable and as valuable in idea exchange as common book and journal form. A long term aim is to make the online presence of Moving Image Arts Research that publishing space. Please feel free to discuss affiliation with us. Please contact: Terry Flaxton

Being focused on capture and display, CMIR recognised the need to add one of the worlds foremost editors to help steer our then research direction. This knowledge aided the cinematographer in understanding what it is the person that constructs a moving image work needs, to aid in that construction. This is not simply just for organising standard narratives, but for innovating new forms of story telling and creation of moving image art. Thelma has been a constant innovator by breaking and reinventing editing rules to provoke unease in the audience as in King of Comedy, through to playing with thriller form in Shutter Island. She has been awarded three Oscars by AMPAS. (Thelma's awards and nominations on IMDB). We are in discussion with Thelma about affiliating with CMIR.
We are also in discussion with a number of other high level industry talents to affiliate with Moving Image Arts Research - not only Oscar winning cinematographers, directors and producers but high level artists in sound and image too. |
