A European Television Fiction Renaissance
This book maps the landscape of contemporary European premium television fiction, offering a detailed overview of both the changes in the digital production and distribution and the emergence of specific national and transnational case histories. Combining a media-production approach with a textual and audience analysis, the volume offers a complex, stratified, systemic view of ongoing aesthetic, sociocultural and industrial developments in contemporary European TV. With contributions from leading experts in the field, the book first offers an overview of the industrial, policy and cultural context for the renaissance of European television drama over the past decade, based on original compa...
The Politics of Serial Television Fiction
Fictional TV politics played a pivotal role in the popular imaginaries of the 2010s across cultures. Examining this curious phenomenon, Sebastian Naumann provides a wide-ranging analysis of the rapidly evolving landscape of contemporary polit-series. Proposing a novel structural model of serial television, he offers an innovative methodological framework for comparative textual analysis that integrates sociocultural, economic, sociotechnical, narratological, and aesthetic perspectives. This study furthermore explores how the changing affordances of (nonlinear) television impact serial storytelling and identifies key narrative trends and recurring themes in contemporary TV polit-fiction.
European Cinema in the Streaming Era
This collection examines the impact of streaming platforms on European cinema. It is structured from three distinct points-of-view: the policy issues related to streaming platforms, equally at the European level and in individual countries; the impact of platforms on the circulation of European films, including some of the global players, multi-national and single-nation platforms operating in Europe; and the production activities of the platforms in the form of specific ‘original’ films. By bringing together scholars working on various national cinemas, including those of France, Spain, Britain and other countries, this collection illuminates the many ways in which the European film industry is responding to the digital revolution.

Is it French? Popular Postnational Screen Fiction from France
This book investigates the recently accelerated phenomenon of mainstream French film and serial television’s remarkable popularity not only within but – more novelly for European audiovisual narratives – outside the domestic context. Treating changes that have taken place in France's production landscape during the mass rollout of global streaming platforms as revelatory of broader tendencies in media production and circulation in Europe and beyond, the collection explores emergent influential players (Omar Sy, Camille Cottin, Alexandre Aja and Fanny Herrero), companies such as Netflix and Gaumont, and new genres, identities and representations on screen. It thus draws together a body of new research by international experts in French and European media production to analyse popular film and television series from France through a postnational lens with regards to both economic and institutional norms and to culture as a whole.

Mondes imaginaires et univers transmédiatiques
S'inscrivant dans les activités de recherche de l'Observatoire des mondes imaginaires, ce numéro thématique s'intéresse au transmédia dans les diverses industries de contenus et les services d'information et de communication. Plus généralement, il interroge ce que le transmédia implique en termes de formes et de pratiques multiples d'écriture, de nouveaux usages et fonctions induits par les transmédialités numériques, d'inscription du public dans ces nouvelles logiques, ainsi qu'en termes de circulation d'objets culturels au sein des espaces sociaux. Ce faisant, ces contributions proposent, à travers des approches disciplinaires et méthodologiques plurielles, une relecture crit...
Du créateur au spectateur
Comment les cinéastes actuels font-ils vivre leur propre cinéphilie ? Interrogée, cette dimension toute particulière du métier de cinéaste est envisagée ici comme un préalable au partage d'une cinéphilie personnelle. Ces textes mettent en évidence ce besoin qu'éprouvent certains créateurs, à l'image de Nanni Moretti, Monte Hellman, Xavier Giannoli, Yann Moix, Quentin Tarantino, Michel Gondry, etc.
Arts et créations au prime des TIC
Les noces entre l'art et la technique sont anciennes et la technique apparaît tour à tour objet, sujet et support de la création, mais aussi de diffusion et de circulation sociale de l'art. Les approches esthétiques et sémiologiques ont rarement pris la mesure de la dimension communicationnelle de cette rencontre. Au-delà des objets-oeuvres ainsi produits, cet ouvrage présente les recherches sur les reconfigurations que le numérique apporte à ces pratiques créatives.
Alternatives cinématographiques et audiovisuelles
Comment le concept d'alternative, appliqué aux environnements cinématographiques et audiovisuels, peut-il être interrogé au regard du cadre offert par la loi ? C'est à cette question que deux numéros des Cahiers de Champs Visuels tentent de répondre. Dans le premier volume (n°23), il est question des cadres législatifs en vigueur, de leurs approximations et de leurs potentielles contradictions, ainsi que de leur confrontation aux environnements pédagogiques, de création sur Internet, pornographiques ou encore de la vigilance citoyenne. Dans le présent volume, ce sont les oppositions exprimées dans le cadre d'un environnement politique ou social répressif qui rencontrent le concept d'images hors-la-loi.
