What is a Videographic Book? (Conference Paper/Presentation)
Title: What is a Videographic Book?
Author: Jason Mittell
Abstract: Over the past decade, film and media studies has seen the exciting rise of videographic criticism as an important and legitimate form of scholarship, with numerous publication and presentation venues emerging for academic video essays. While the parallels between video essays and journal articles are inexact, a videographic essay typically functions at roughly the same scope of a written article—but what would the videographic parallel be to an academic book? In this presentation, Jason Mittell explores the possibilities of a longer-format mode of videographic criticism, focusing both on potentials of the newly launched book series Videographic Books that he is editing for Lever Press, and his videographic book-in-progress, “The Chemistry of Character in BREAKING BAD.“
