First Undergraduate Film Journal Launched
Film Matters: Future Film Scholars


Intellect is delighted to announce the launch of the first international undergraduate film journal, Film Matters. This peer-reviewed journal offers students from around the world an unmatched opportunity to showcase their academic talent. Published four times a year, each issue will contain feature articles, as well as a robust film and book review section.
 
This innovative and timely publication will appeal to a vast community of international film scholars. The journal enables unparalleled access to professional academic publishing opportunities for undergraduates, and will exhibit cutting-edge research from outstanding future film scholars worldwide.
 
Film Matters is published by Intellect in partnership with the Department of Film Studies at the University of North Carolina Wilmington, and benefits from Intellect’s international publishing heritage in film studies, with publications including Film International, The Big Picture and the Directory of World Cinema.  
 
The journal acknowledges the graphic power of cinema, and encourages visual literacy of film through its elegant design and rich layout. With imaginative themed issues such as women in cinema, and films and social change, Film Matters will push film studies forward in new and original directions.
 
Film Matters is a unique global venture, offering publishing opportunities for a new, younger generation of film scholars. Film Matters reflects the dynamic culture of film studies internationally, and will provide fresh perspectives on canonical works, and original insights into films and filmmakers too long ignored.’ – Dr. Lou Buttino, Chair of Film Studies Dept., UNC Wilmington.
