I am seeking proposals for the following panel to be held at the SCMS 

conference in Vancouver, March 2006:



Screen Shops: Shopping Channels, Department Store Cinema, and 

Point-of-Purchase TV



This panel seeks papers exploring links between film, television and 

shopping. Particular emphasis is placed on proposals addressing use of 

screen technologies at the point-of-purchase or to promote direct 

ordering. Papers on topics such as shopping channels (QVC, HSN, etc.), 

film/TV in department stores, popcorn promos in theater trailers, 

infomercials, and interactive television are welcome.



Please send 200-300 word proposals to Stephen Groening
