Mapping Cinematographic Territories: A Cybercartographic Atlas of Canadian Cinema
GPE Departmental Seminar Series Presents on Friday December 5th, 2008 at 11 am in H1252:
“The overall goal of this atlas is to better understand the influence of cinema in the construction and dissemination of geographic identities. To reach this goal, this atlas maps Canadian cinematographic territories, including the territories of film production (e.g. shooting location), of film audience (e.g. revenues of films and socio-demographic profiles), and of film action. Simultaneously, this atlas serves as a laboratory to explore new forms of cartographic techniques inspired by cinema, including jump cut framing, and audio-visual mapping.”
