[Corpora-List] Wanted: info on audio-visual corpora

[CRuehlemann at aol.com]

Dear Paul,
 
Another belated reply to your  query: 
 
Two  multimodal corpora (you may already know of) are reported on in Baldry  
& Thilbault (2006) who take a systemic-functional approach to analyse gaze  in 
a corpus of TV car advertisements and  Carter & Adolphs’s (2008). This latter 
project, called Headtalk, is based on  a small corpus of several hours of 
video-taped MA and PhD supervision sessions  at Nottingham University and 
intended to explore the patterning of  multi-modal backchannels, focussing 
specifically on head nods as a type of  nonverbal backchannel in co-occurrence with 
verbal backchannels. 
 
Best
 
Chris
