QUARTERLY REVIEW OF FILM AND VIDEO

PLEASE NOTE NEWS E-MAIL ADDRESS

The editors (Wheeler Winston Dixon and Gwendolyn Audrey Foster) of Quarterly Review of Film and Video are now seeking new submissions of manuscripts in film, video, and moving image studies.

The journal publishes five times per year (four regular issues, and one year-end special issue), and is now seeking selected articles for publication.

QRFV is devoted to providing innovative perspectives from a broad range of methodologies, including writings on newly developing technologies, as well as essays and interviews in any area of film history, production, reception and criticism.

Do not send stills with your article, or imbed them in the text; please send the text only. We do not publish photographs or frame grabs in QRFV.

Our page length for articles is from 20 pages minimum to 40 pages maximum, including notes and/or works cited.

We are interested in essays on all aspects of film and the moving image: history, theory, and criticism. We are particularly interested in essays on video games and video installations, and postmodern examinations of images in popular culture and the video arts that intersect with film/video.

We also regularly publish book reviews of 6 to 10 pages length. Query us first on a book you might be interested in reviewing. We also assign reviews.

QRFV accepts essays in MLA or Chicago format. Footnotes and/or endnotes are permitted. If using MLA format, please use parenthetical citations throughout the text, and a list of works cited at the end.

All film titles are underlined, with date of release directly following in parentheses, and name of director at first mention, as in: Alfred Hitchcock’s Psycho (1960). Use MLA Handbook, 7th Edition; or, if in Chicago format, the Chicago Manual of Style, 16th Edition.

Please be very careful to include ALL PAGE NUMBERS on works cited. If using MLA style, articles in journals, or in anthologies, must be listed with the COMPLETE INCLUSIVE pagination of the article or essay in the Works Cited section.

Similarly, all quotes within your essay must be followed immediately by a parenthetical citation from the work in question, for example: (Heller 35).

Manuscripts are subject to a pre-screening and then a formal review process.

There is no formal deadline; manuscripts are reviewed throughout the year. Manuscripts cannot be returned to contributors.
