Johannes' main interest is film theoretical and has long been focused on film acting and the power of performances for affecting our experience of moving image narratives. He is the author of Spillets kunst (2003) on emotions and nonverbal meaning, and has contributed to encyclopedias, anthologies, and journals on this and other issues. Currently he is working on a book-length study of film acting styles between 1920 and 1980, addressing American, European and Asian actor-director collaborations. Johannes' is particularly interested in cognitive film theory and has attended the SCSMI conferences for years. A secondary interest is that of media industries, in particular issues of distribution and ownership, and has a particular liking for short film narratives. Johannes has been teaching a course on film theory and analysis, as well as institutions and organizations, including a course concurrent with students' internships. Since 2005 he has been a member of the board at Society for Cognitive Studies of the Moving Image, since 2017 on the board for Carl Th. Dreyers Mindefond. |
