Breaking new ground as the first transdisciplinary reader in this field, Video Theories is a resource that will form the basis for further research and teaching. While theories of video have not yet formed an academic discipline comparable to the more canonized theories of photography, film, and television, the reader offers a major step toward bridging this “video gap” in media theory, which is remarkable considering today's omnipresence of the medium through online video portals and social media.

"Moi qui ai toujours eu du mal à (sa)voir où je serais dans dix ans, je serais bien incapable de prédire mon propre avenir dans le métier. Ce que je sais, c’est que ma pratique ne cesse d’évoluer. Et que cet exercice d’écriture, écrire ce livre, la modifiera forcément. L’expérience me rendra-t-elle meilleure traductrice, ou au contraire plus mauvaise, parce que j’aurai pris goût à choisir mes mots sans contrainte étrangère, sans texte de départ à respecter ? Une chose est sûre, j’aimerais montrer davantage les coutures de la traduction, la trame du travail en train de se tisser.
