Default Silent Cinema: Essay Prize Announced

Silent Cinema: Essay Prize Announced

The Projection Box, publisher of books on early film, has started an annual
essay prize for research into the moving and projected image before 1915.
The aims of this award are to encourage new research and new thinking into
any historical, artistic or technical aspect of projected and moving images
up to 1915; and to promote engaging, accessible, and imaginative work. The
first prize of £250 is for an essay of between 5000 and 8000 words
(including notes).

The deadline for entries is 18 January 2008. The winning essay will also be
published in an issue of Early Popular Visual Culture (Routledge). At the
discretion of the judges, two runners-up will each receive books and CD-roms
of their choice (published by The Projection Box), to the value of £100.

The award is open to all. Although the judges welcome international
submissions, all essays must be in English. Each applicant may submit up to
two essays. Work must be the author's own, and must not have been previously
published. There is no time limit on when the work was originally written.
Co-authored essays can be accepted. Authors are encouraged to provide
appropriate accompanying illustrations, as the winning essay will be
published in Early Popular Visual Culture, an illustrated journal.
Permissions will need to be sought by the author before publication of the
winning entry. Notes and references must be included. Read the guidelines
for the required method for referencing your text.
