Author Noel O'Shea

Noel O'Shea

Noel O’Shea completed his PhD at the University of Limerick in 2017. His doctoral thesis centred on the aesthetics of the digital image in contemporary cinema, focusing on the crime and horror genres in particular. His main research interests centre on new paradigms of viewer engagement with the digital image, understanding how digital genre films relate to their classical predecessors, and new narrative possibilities afforded by digital technologies in current genre cinema. His article, “‘Something Genuinely Norwegian’: Cultural Identity Under the Influence of American Cinema in the Found Footage Aesthetic of Trolljegeren/Trollhunter (2010),” was published in a Special Issue of Studies in European Cinema in January 2017, which celebrated Space and Place in European cinema.
