Editorial Reviews

Review

"A superb book that helps us think beyond the grand but sometimes ungrounded digital convergence and user revolution rhetoric. Particularly impressive are the ways that the book marshals historical evidence to fill important gaps in new media 'theory,' connects domestic activities with industrial practice, and shows how 'DIY' (do-it-yourself) vernacular film criticism and analysis (film blogging) is as important as DIY production activities (uploaded videos and 'mash-ups') in spurring participation in contemporary film culture."
John T. Caldwell, author of Production Culture: Industrial Reflexivity and Critical Practice in Film and Television

"Reinventing Cinema represents a significant accomplishment for the way it revisions recent film history, drawing into its account such key questions for the digital age as who actually controls the dissemination of images and who determines their meaning."
J.P. Telotte, author of The Mouse Machine: Disney and Technology
