Abstract
Mobile media, mobility, mobile creative arts and mobile communication have significantly shaped the way we live, work, tell stories and how we are creative and stay innovative. Inspired by the trans-disciplinary impact of mobile media, this special issue reflects on developments in creative mobile media practice, including mobile studies, mobile communication, and mobile experience. Based on the discussions and presentations at the University of Nottingham Ningbo China during the Mobile Studies Congress 2022 with the theme Go Mobile Stay Innovative and the Mobile Studies Congress 2023 at Zhejiang University in Hangzhou, China with the theme Go Mobile Stay Creative, the articles will explore and examine innovation and creativity in screen storytelling, community engagement and novel production formats such as mobile music, drone cinematography, mobile and smartphone filmmaking. As much of our world has gone mobile, it is vital to examine the present changes, challenges, and chances that define mobile media, mobility, mobile creativity and mobile communication now and in the near future. Developments towards Industry 4.0 and ongoing digital transformations continue to disrupt the screen industries. Innovative technologies and mobile creativity allow various communities to create artistic and cultural productions globally and forge new synergies among academic disciplines.Description
