"The Archive Effect: Found Footage and the Audiovisual Experience of History examines
the problems of representation inherent in the appropriation of archival film and
video footage for historical purposes. Baron analyses the way in which the meanings
of archival documents are modified when they are placed in new texts and contexts,
constructing the viewer's experience of and relationship to the past they portray.
Rethinking the notion of the archival document in terms of its reception and the spectatorial
experiences it generates, she explores the 'archive effect' as it is produced across
the genres of documentary, mockumentary, experimental, and fiction films. This engaging
work discusses how, for better or for worse, the archive effect is mobilized to create
new histories, alternative histories, and misreadings of history. The book covers
a multitude of contemporary cultural artefacts including fiction films like Zelig,
Forrest Gump and JFK, mockumentaries such as The Blair Witch Project and Forgotten
Silver, documentaries like Standard Operating Procedure and Grizzly Man, and videogames
like Call of Duty: World at War. In addition, she examines the works of many experimental
filmmakers including those of Péter Forgács, Adele Horne, Bill Morrison, Cheryl Dunye,
and Natalie Bookchin." -- Publisher's description
