To Film Makers and Scholars:
Archaeological Legacy Institute is announcing a 'call for papers' for the
upcoming TAC Festival Conference on Cultural Heritage Film to be held on May
18 to the 21 in Eugene, OR, in conjunction with our 7th annual installment
of The Archaeology Channel International film and Video Festival. The
conference will be held in the Tykeson Room at the Eugene Public Library.
This is an international event, with films and film-makers coming from
around the globe. Conference attendees will receive tickets to all film
screenings.
Papers on applications of film (academic, cultural, practical, educational)
will be considered for conference presentation. There will also be an open
discussion of Festival films. The goals of this conference are three-fold:
(1) to promote the creation, distribution and use of cultural heritage film
as an influence for broad cultural awareness and understanding; (2) to bring
together educators, film-makers, archaeologists, anthropologists,
historians, journalists, historic preservationists, environmentalists,
geographers, and others interested in cultural heritage and its connections
to the natural environment; and (3) to bring together and share new ideas
and approaches to employ film for the common good of all humanity.
The official call for papers will be posted by March 15 in our Festival area
at http://www.archaeologychannel.org/content/Conference10.html. TAC Festival
information may be found now at
http://www.archaeologychannel.org/content/TACfestival.shtml. The call for
papers and registration form can also be viewed below and includes
information on abstract submission, presentation length, paper topics, and
opportunities to propose and coordinate symposia. We encourage you to
participate even if you don?t present a paper. Please do not hesitate to
ask if you have any questions. I look forward to hearing from you and
seeing you at this year?s event. Please share this information as widely as
possible.
