About Mediascape
Mediascape is a journal of the Cinema and Media Studies Program at UCLA's School of Theater, Film, and Television. Our aim is to create a forum which takes an interdisciplinary approach to visual cultural studies. Conceptually, we see this journal as focusing on the moving image and all its manifestations. We want to endorse a non-exclusive treatment of visual culture and will look for cross-disciplinary, cross-technological, and cross-cultural perspectives of our field to make up the content of the journal.
