Subject: [AMIA-Member-L] The Moving Image Welcomes New Editorial Team!!
To: AMIA-MEMBER AT listserve.com <mailto:AMIA-MEMBER AT listserve.com>


Devin and Marsha Orgeron have been appointed editors-in-chief and Teri
Tynes has been appointed managing editor of /The Moving Image/, the
professional journal of the Association of Moving Image Archivists.



Devin Orgeron is Associate Professor of Film Studies at North Carolina
State University. He is the author of /Road Movies/ (Palgrave Macmillan,
2007) and his articles have appeared in such journals as /Cinema
Journal/, /The Velvet Light Trap/, /Film Quarterly/, and /The Moving
Image/.  Devin is currently writing a book about contemporary American
directors, such as Errol Morris and Spike Jonze, who also work in
commercial advertising.



Marsha Orgeron is Associate Professor and Director Film Studies at North
Carolina State University.  She is the author of /Hollywood Ambitions:
Celebrity in the Movie Age/ (Wesleyan University Press, 2008) and a
dozen articles in books and journals such as /Film Quarterly/, /The
Moving Image,/ /Cinema Journal/, /Quarterly Review of Film & Video/, and
/Historical Journal of Film, Radio & Television/.  She is currently at
work on a book about director Sam Fuller's war films, beginning with the
16mm amateur footage he shot of Falkenau concentration camp at the close
of WWII.



Three-time Orphan Film Symposium veterans and home movie enthusiasts,
the Orgerons are also currently co-editing /Learning with the Lights
Off: A Reader in Educational Film/ with Dan Streible (forthcoming with
Oxford University Press in 2010).  They are also the co-founders, with
A/V Geek Skip Elsheimer, of Home Movie Day Raleigh, now in its fourth
year.  They are both excited to work with AMIA members in their
co-editorial role for /The Moving Image/ and are looking forward to
meeting folks in Savannah at the AMIA Annual conference in the fall.



Teri Tynes is an experienced college educator, editor, published writer,
and new media entrepreneur. Before moving to New York in the summer of
2006 she lived in Columbia, South Carolina where she served in several
leadership positions in publishing and the arts.  She was
editor-in-chief and art critic of the city's major weekly newspaper, the
director of the state's largest contemporary gallery, and a lecturer in
art history at the University of South Carolina. She also worked as an
in-house editor for the literary publishing house, Bruccoli, Clark, and
Layman, editing volumes of the Dictionary of Literary Biography.



In July of 2007 Tynes created the website, Walking Off the Big Apple, a
strolling guide to New York arts and culture. In addition, she works as
a consultant for the Tribeca Film Institute's Reframe website project,
writing a blog titled "Shoe Leather" on independent film. She has
published reviews of arts exhibitions and multi-media performances for
ArtPapers and other arts publications, and she is the author of several
catalogue essays on contemporary art. She lives in New York with her
spouse, film historian Dan Streible, and two dogs.



Published by the University of Minnesota Press, /The Moving Image/
explores topics relevant to both the media archivist and the media
scholar.  /The Moving Image/ deals with crucial issues surrounding the
preservation, archiving, and restoration of film, video, and digital
moving images. The journal features detailed profiles of moving image
collections; interpretive and historical essays about archival
materials; articles on archival description, appraisal, and access;
behind-the-scenes looks at the techniques used to preserve, restore, and
digitize moving images; and theoretical articles on the future of the field.
