- Additional information
- This output comprises guest-editing of the whole special issue, and a sole-authored article, ‘Cloud Animation’.
This special issue emerged out of a Birkbeck Institute of the Humanities funded conference at Birkbeck, co-organised by Leslie and McKim. They sought out contributors from an international pool. This was complex and the result of sustained discussion between Leslie and McKim; and Leslie and leading figures across an emerging and interdisciplinary field. Selected conference contributors were invited to submit to the issue. Additionally, Leslie identified other contributors and respondents.
The guest-edited issues of animation are required to make a substantial research contribution to the field of animation studies, and the idea for this issue had to be pitched to them. Leslie and McKim each worked closely with 50% of the contributors, establishing dialogue across essays and keeping connected to the issue’s wider idea. The Introduction was jointly written. This research output formed one element of a later successful AHRC network bid.
