<div class="Default"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:11.5pt">A two-day
international symposium and on East Asian Cinema and Film Festival (sponsored
by Third Window Films) organised by Spencer Murphy (Coventry University), John

<div class="Default"><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:11.5pt">The films that have
emerged from East Asia in the past decade have invigorated international cinema
with their originality and vitality, capturing the attention of academics and
audiences alike. Asian Exposure aims to capture this vitality through a
combination of formal and informal talks, film screenings at the Warwick Art
Centre sponsored by Third Window Films, Q&A sessions with key directors,
workshops and themed events. <o:p></o:p></span></div>

</span></span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:11.5pt">We seek
papers that represent the diversity of East Asian Cinema and engage with the
films from a variety of perspectives – academic, fan based, journalism,
festival management, student, distribution companies and publishing – across
disciplines and countries. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

</span></span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:11.5pt">As this symposium
emerges from the work done by CUEAFS (Coventry University East Asian Film
Society), one of the foremost aims of the symposium is to challenge academic
boundaries and conventions in relation to the production and dissemination of
knowledge. As such, we actively welcome the submission of abstracts of
work-in-progress, pre-formed panels, workshops or proposed discussion sessions
by students, both undergraduate and postgraduate, in addition to academics,
journalists, and people involved in the consumption, promotion and distribution
of East Asian Cinema. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

</span></span><span lang="EN-GB" style="font-size:11.5pt">The purpose
of the symposium and film festival is to develop a network of people involved
with the production, distribution, reception and analysis of East Asian
cinema.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes"> </span>It is anticipated that the
symposium will reflect the excitement and interest generated by the emergence
of East Asian cinema onto the global screen, while also offering new insights
into local productions and co-productions which have been overlooked by
scholars and audiences in the West. <o:p></o:p></span></p>

that proposals should be related to one of the four cinematic territories
(China, Hong Kong, Japan or South Korea). Pre-formed panels, workshops,
presentation of work-in-progress, and panels are sought. Suggested areas are
below, but we welcome proposals on other areas of interest which fulfil the
