Intellect is delighted to announce the publication of the first issue of Volume 2 of the Journal of African Media Studies (JAMS).
Offering new perspectives on African film, the contributors to this special issue explore largely unexamined audio-visual forms, films, institutions, contexts, infrastructure and concepts. Film festivals, informal distribution structures and mobile cinema projects are examined in a range of articles, which seek to promote understanding of the screen media of Africa.
