New volume of Northern Lights: Film and Media Studies Yearbook:

Film and media production: Creativity, convergence and collaboration

Volume editors: Mette Mortensen and Eva Novrup Redvall. Chief editor: Stig Hjarvard

The 2012 volume of Northern Lights focuses on the renewed interest in film and media production, including issues of creativity, convergence and collaboration. Concurrent with a heightened awareness of the complex production processes in the creative industries, a new scholarly interest in choices and constraints as well as in institutional contexts has emerged. At the same time, technological changes in the modes of production and distribution have caused a blurring of boundaries between media consumers and producers.
