No. 25 (2024): Innovations in Narrative and Media: Transmedia, Interactions and Culture
The monographic section of this issue, edited by Dr. Joan Rodriguez-Amat (Sheffield Hallam University), focuses on the analysis of narrative in cultural industries with an emphasis on the platformization of cultural production (Nieborg & Poell, 2018), digital platforms, stories, and the role of the main actors in the narrative process. It addresses various themes such as the impact of the platformization of cultural production on creativity and narratives, as well as the role and narrative models that figures like YouTubers, Instagrammers, Twitchers, and TikTokers are adopting for new audiences, formats, and environments, among others.
In the miscellaneous section, topics such as the political commitment in Francesco Rosi's films, the effectiveness of educational series like "Merlí" in engaging young audiences, the dissemination of scientific knowledge through institutional communication practices, and the alignment between public and media agendas in Ecuadorian media are analyzed. Additionally, the results of a Doctoral thesis on how gender discrimination affects female journalists despite technological advances in digital platforms and media are presented.
