The Centre for Creative Industries, Media, and Screen Studies (CCIMSS) welcomes proposals for specialized and cross-disciplinary research in film and screen studies, particularly focusing on Africa, Asia, and the Near and Middle East. What sets the Centre apart is its regional emphasis on film and screen industries operating outside the mainstream Western frameworks of Hollywood and European production, distribution, and exhibition systems. Additionally, we actively encourage investigations into the cross-border, intercultural, and multi-platform dimensions of visual culture throughout the 20th and 21st centuries. As the media landscape becomes increasingly globalized, both academics and professionals are acknowledging the importance of examining visual cultures and creative sectors that exist beyond the traditional dominance of European and Hollywood paradigms.
