History

[edit]

The journal began publishing in 1961 as The Journal of the Society of Cinematologists—publishing research from the organization that would become SCS and then SCMS.[1] In 1966, it evolved into Cinema Journal.[2] It remained so named until October 2018 when it became The Journal of Cinema and Media Studies to better align itself with the name of its host organization.[3]
