Journal of African Media Studies, Volume 2

Intellect is delighted to announce the publication of the first issue of Volume 2 of the
Journal of African Media Studies (JAMS).

Offering new perspectives on African film, the contributors to this special issue
explore largely unexamined audio-visual forms, films, institutions, contexts,
infrastructure and concepts. Film festivals, informal distribution structures and mobile
cinema projects are examined in a range of articles, which seek to promote understanding
of the screen media of Africa.
