Description
Indie Cinema Online explores the changing landscape of contemporary American independent cinema in an era of media convergence. With the rise of online streaming, simultaneous release strategies, and web series, modes of production, distribution, and exhibition are shifting dramatically. This book analyzes key sites such as SundanceTV, YouTube, Netflix, Hulu, and other online spaces to redefine independent cinema in a digital age. Sarah E.S. Sinwell examines the intersections between cinema studies, cultural studies, and new media studies within contemporary convergence culture, highlighting how forms and technologies of media culture have changed during this period. By analyzing contemporary production, distribution, and exhibition practices, Indie Cinema Online sheds light on the evolving meanings of independent cinema within digital culture.
