>> Call for Submissions to the First Annual BAFTSS Awards
>>
>> The British Association for Film, Television and Screen Studies (BAFTSS)
>> wishes to recognise the research achievements of its members through the
>> BAFTSS Annual Awards. For further information regarding BAFTSS, please
>> visit this website: http://www.baftss.org/
>> BAFTSS members are eligible to submit work in

>> studies):
>>
>> Best Monograph (a single-authored book, published between 1 January 2011

>>
>> Best Article in a Refereed Journal (published between 1 January 2011 and
>> 31 December 2011)
>>
>> Best Postgraduate Student Essay (BAFTTS Student members enrolled during
>> the period between 1 January 2011 and 31 December 2011 on postgraduate
>> degree courses in Film, Television or Screen Studies at a British
>> University). Submissions in this category should be between 4,000 and

>> submitted in their present form to a peer-reviewed journal. They can
>> include work that has been submitted fully or in parts as an assessed
>> degree requirement (coursework, dissertation chapter etc.). Essays written
>> specifically for the competition are also eligible.
>>
>> Deadline for all submissions is May 31, 2012.
>>
>>
>> Apart from submitting their own work, members may nominate the work of
>> fellow members. In the latter case, contact details of both nominators and
>> nominees must be supplied, and the nominated author must consent to being
>> nominated. Publishers are welcome to submit the work of their authors,
>> provided these are BAFTTS members. Publishers themselves do not need to be
>> BAFTSS members. Only one item across all categories can be submitted by
>> (or for) each member. The BAFTSS Awards Committee will determine the
>> winners. The awards will be presented at a special ceremony during the
>> BAFTTS AGM which we plan to hold on 20 September 2012. Details will be
>> announced in due course. Award recipients will be notified prior to the
>> event.
>>
>> Membership of BAFTSS is open to anybody regardless of nationality, and

>> submission. Given the uncertainty regarding the volume of submissions
>> this being the first year the competition is running we have decided to
