*CFP* "CANNED TELEVISION GOING GLOBAL?", SPECIAL ISSUE VIEW JOURNAL

VIEW is an open-access e-journal dedicated to sharing research on European Television History and Culture. VIEW is supported by the EUscreen Network and published by the Netherlands Institute for Sound and Vision in collaboration with Utrecht University, Royal Holloway University of London, and the University of Luxembourg.

 

VIEW Journal invites proposals for the upcoming issue on "Canned Television Going Global?". This special issue of VIEW focuses on the international circulation and distribution of ready-made content, in the form of scripted products, considering both TV fiction and films.

Possible proposals are invited in (but not limited to) the following areas:

• The history of transnational TV content circulation; 
• The TV distribution of films and ready-made content in the European context and beyond; 
• US content versus EU content in past and contemporary European TV; 
• The role of emerging markets and nations in the production and distribution of ready-made programs; 
• The circulation of traditional and innovative ready-made genres: TV movies, series, factual entertainment, etc.; 
• New models for international distribution of content: the emerging role of OTT services in the internationalisation of programs; 
• International co-productions and their distribution policies; 
• Practices of TV industry professionals in the area of international distributions: markets, deals, professionals, routines; 
• Localizing and adapting foreign ready-made content, for example through dubbing, subtitling and voice-overs; 
• The role of bottom-up circulation: fan-subbing practices and communities, and the “shadow economy” of content.

Contributions are encouraged from authors with different kinds of expertise and interests in media studies, television and media history. Paper proposals (max. 500 words) are due on February 1st, 2019. Submissions should be sent to the managing editor of the journal, Dana Mustata at journal@euscreen.eu.
