This volume explores how to engage audiences both beyond and within
the academy more deeply in environmental research through
arts-based forms. It builds on a multi-pronged case study of
scripts for documentary film, audio-visual and stage formats,
focusing on how the identity of a place is constructed and
contested in the face of environmental concerns around fossil-fuel
extraction in a globalized, visual society--and specifically on the
rising, international public-relations war over Alberta's
stewardship of the tar sands. Each script is followed by discussion
of the author's choices of initiating idea, research sources,
format, voices, world of the story, structure and visual style, and
other notes on the convergence of synthesis, analysis and
(re)presentation in the script. Included are lively analysis and
commentary on screenwriting and playwriting theory, the creation
and dissemination of the scripts, and reflections to ground a
proposed framework for writing eco-themed scripts for screen,
audio-visual and stage formats.
