Description

This presentation shows how the ELAN suite of tools (free software developed by and for linguists) can be a wonderful pedagogic and scholarly tool for close-reading films, TV shows, and any other moving-image media. Using specific examples from film scholarship and classroom experience, it shows how the kind of fine-grained analysis that has long been possible for written texts is now possible for film/media studies. It ends with suggested uses in a variety of scholarly and pedagogic contexts.
