Timescapes:
A timescape focuses on a particular space or place in
the U.S. South. These short documentaries can either be comprised of one
continuous take or an edited series of shots on location. Timescapes can
range from thirty-second vignettes to fifteen-minute short videos.
To Submit:
All video files should be submitted in an uncompressed format, preferably
as digitized video files copied to a mass storage medium (like DVD) or,
alternatively, as clips archived onto a mini-DV tape with an accompanying
list of names and corresponding time code numbers for all clips. Although
our preference is for original digital material, we will also consider
video tape formats such as VHS or Hi-8.
If you have questions regarding image, sound, or video formatting, please
contact us. Submissions should be sent to the senior editor or managing
editor of Southern Spaces for consideration. Please refer to
the Editorial Board and Editorial
Staff sections for contact information.
