Cinema and Media Studies at York University offers students a comprehensive and 
rigorous immersion in the study of the moving image in all its forms, both 
historical and contemporary. Building on York’s longstanding commitment to 
deliver innovative and interdisciplinary post-graduate training, the program 
offers a curriculum that encourages rich and dynamic synergies between creative 
and scholarly research with a unique focus on social justice, diversity, equity 
and sustainability. 

 
Our faculty  make outstanding 
contributions in the areas of film theory, film history, national and 
transnational cinema, emerging screen technologies and digital media theory, 
global media industries, documentary, experimental and avant-garde film and 
media, affect studies, post-colonial theory, urban media studies, labor 
studies, feminism and sexuality and political economy. 

 
Our students , faculty, and large 
alumni network are part of Toronto’s lively and diverse film and media culture 
and its many opportunities for festival programming, curation, symposia, and 
lectures. The city of Toronto, housing Canada’s most important media industry 
infrastructure, provides students with exceptional opportunities for field 
placements, access to film screenings, museums and galleries, festivals (over 
100 film festivals occur each year, including the Toronto International F <>ilm 
Festival, Hot Docs, and Images Festival), and resources like the Ontario 
Archives (now housed on York University campus), TIFF’s Film Reference Library, 
and other unique research collections. 

 
We welcome applicants with educational backgrounds in Cinema/Film Studies, 
Media Studies, Communications, Cultural Studies, Art History, English, Women’s 
Studies, Queer and Sexuality Studies, Comparative Literature, Philosophy, Urban 
Studies, and other disciplines that nurture research in sound and moving image 
media. 
 
The MA  is a rigorous 
two-year (5-term) program involving course work and the completion of a Major 
Research Paper, a Major Research Field Placement Project, or a 
Research-Creation Project. A combined MBA/MA 
 in Arts and Business 
Administration 

 is also offered with the Schulich School of Business. 

 
Teaching, publication, and professional academic development are key components 
of the PhD , a minimum 
four-year degree with guaranteed funding for six years. After completing course 
work and comprehensive exams, students complete a research dissertation or 
research creation dissertation that makes a decisive intervention in the 
discipline. 

 
Each year the program selects a small group of exceptional students to join its 
vigorous and stimulating intellectual community, where students attend small 
and engaging seminars and receive close attention from faculty supervisors.  
Our MA and PhD programs provide specialized training for careers in academic, 
research and government organizations, arts and entertainment industries 
(television, film, new media), festivals, producing, programming and curation, 
teaching, critical writing and publishing, publicity, and much more.

Sharon Hayashi, Graduate Program Director, haya...@yorku.ca

Re: [Frameworks] Bi-packing acetate in a Bolex

Sorry for delayed response,

I usually load manually just to be sure both sets of sprocket holes are 
securely on the sprocketed rollers and the claw. Point the camera at a white 
wall and take a light reading in the usual way,

Nicky.

[Frameworks] Looking for an MA online course in Experimental film

[Jamie Cleeland]

Hello,
I am living in Vietnam.  I am wondering if anybody on this lstserv can point me 
to an online MA course in experimental film.  I know of Raindance, though I am 
on a low income and their tuition fees are very high in comparison to my 
earnings.  

Kind regards,
Jaime
