Digital media of audiovisual production and exhibition and the expressivity: contributions to the interface between education and communication

Abstract

More and more, people have been adopting digital media which produces and exhibits audiovisual content. From advanced video cameras to the not-so-advanced mobile phones, it is already possible to record film and, with access to the Internet, spread what has been filmed into a world of potential. A mobile phone and a YouTube account, for example, allow people today to distribute what they has personally filmed more easily than a professional film production, considering the traditional methods of production, execution and distribution of audiovisual content, be it in the world of cinema or conventional television.

However, what is being filmed? What content is being produced by people with cellular phones and YouTube accounts? Is appropriate to say it in terms of production, or rather of reproduction adorned with the contours of the excessive use of technicality? Does to adopt the digital media to the production and distribution of audiovisual content also mean, with a greater level of audiovisual language autonomy, creativity, criticality?
