Congratulations to our Reading researchers who exhibited video essays at the Museum of the Moving Image in New York City earlier this year.
The series Expanded Screens: The Video Essay was programmed by Professor John Gibbs (Film, Theatre & Television) and Dr Mara Oliva (History) in partnership with other video essay experts and practitioners.

Professor Gibbs and Dr Oliva also attended the American Historical Association Annual Meeting, where they participated in a panel titled Visualizing the Past: Exploring the Video Essay as a Dynamic Historical Methodology.
