Abstract

This document will give an account of the process and results of a qualitative research entitled: Perspectiva de género a través de narrativas audiovisuales propias de algunos estudiantes de cine y televisión, developed as a thesis project of the Master´s Degree in Communication and Education of the Universidad Distrital Francisco José de Caldas, whose main objective is to analyze the concept of gender that has a group of students who belong to the academic program of film and television of a recognized private university of Bogotá through the production of their own audiovisual narratives, specifically short films. Therefore, this study proposes to identify the concepts and ideas that underlie, as well as the strategies employed in audiovisual narrative to conceptualize gender. The corpus used to carry out this research focused on two short films, entitled La fábrica and no binario, which focus on related topics such as the influence of social institutions on the formation of individuals, the body as a social discourse, roles and gender identity. The methodology to carry out this research is critical analysis of multimodal discourse (ACDM), from the incorporation of various semiotic systems involved in the construction of audiovisual products of this nature, and then identify the narrative elements that contribute in the recreation of the concept of gender. The results obtained will be shown as conclusions, taking into account the categories of analysis that produced this research, thus offering broad fields of interpretation and conceptualization about what gender refers to authentic productions of a group of young students.
