The DLA is thrilled to announce that Professors Jason Mittell and Chris Keathley have been awarded a National Endowment for the Humanities grant to host an intensive, two-week workshop called “Scholarship in Sound & Image.”  Professors Mittell and Keathley, both of the Film & Media Culture department at Middlebury, will lead workshop attendees to produce videographic criticism through the creation of video and sound.

The workshop is designed for 12 participants, ranging in rank from advanced graduate students to full professors, including scholars working outside traditional faculty positions, whose objects of study involve audio-visual media, especially film, radio, television, and other new digital media forms. It will be held from June 14-27, 2015 at Middlebury College. For more information, view the Scholarship in Sound & Image website.
