Yecies, Brian

Overview

Originally from Arizona, Dr. Yecies has over 20 years’ experience teaching and researching Asia’s transnational film and digital media industries and cultural policy. He has links with a range of organizations, practitioners and academics, and is committed to cooperative learning and research. He is the author of the books: Korea’s Occupied Cinemas, 1893-1948 (2011), and The Changing Face of Korean Cinema, 1960-2015 (2016) — both with Ae-Gyung Shim. He is also a chief investigator on the 2017-19 Australian Research Council Discovery Project ‘Digital China: From Cultural Presence to Innovative Nation’.

International collaborations supported by research grants from the Korea Foundation, Australia–Korea Foundation, Academy of Korean Studies and Asia Research Fund have facilitated the publication of numerous book chapters, including: Willing Collaborators: Refashioning Content for the Chinese Media Market (forthcoming); Reconceptualising Film Policies (2017); The Handbook of China’s Cultural and Creative Industries (2016); Reviews on the International Cultural Markets (2016, Beijing Capital University of Economics and Business); Film Marketing into the Twenty-First Century (2015); and Creative Media in China (2014, China Social Sciences Academic Press).

Dr. Yecies was a chief investigator on the 2014 ARC DP ‘Willing collaborators: Negotiating Change in East Asian Media Production’; 2015 UoW Global Challenges initiative ‘Creative Responses to the Broadband-Empowered Digital Economy: Modelling Innovation in Korea’; and 2016 Council for Australian–Arab Relations study ‘Networking Women Entrepreneurs in Sydney and Dubai’
