production and consumption. New technologies such as DVDs, MP3s and the
Internet have freed the audience from traditional ways of relating to what used
to be termed 'mass media'. In the face of such seismic shifts, the theoretical
and pedagogical structures of film and television studies are being shaken to
their core. New Media responds to these revolutionary developments, bringing
together authors including Constance Penley and Henry Jenkins to address topics
such as computer games, digital animation techniques, media convergence, and
internet audiences. Anna Everett, John T. Caldwell, Bertolt Brecht, Laura
