The Moving Image (MI)

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. Founded in 2001, The Moving Image is a unique, hybrid journal that serves several professions and communities of thinkers, scholars and practitioners interested in archival issues and materials. Its objectives are, in many ways, aligned with the similarly varied objectives of its parent organization, AMIA. Though we have a number of ways of describing this mission, a catch-all the TMI team have grown fond of focuses on the journal’s ability to bridge these communities and foster meaningful communication between them. The Moving Image has four primary sections: Features, Forum, our new Collections section, and Reviews. Our brand-new Collections section is a platform for archives (small, large, institutional, private) to share some of what they are doing with our readership. Somewhat shorter than our Features, these articles can take many shapes but are generally intended to draw attention to materials and/or processes the TMI and AMIA community should know about. We are interested in moving image histories, aesthetics, and technologies, especially as they impact or are impacted by archival practice. We are also interested in archival labor, best practices, and in-depth project narratives.
