El documentalista de programas de televisión: horizontes profesionales

摘要

Professional trends for television programme researchers and opportunities that arise in the labour market due to the widespread media consumption and the increasing number of diverse media (mass media, internet, cultural industries, Digital Terrestrial Television...) are analysed. We present the promotion, projection and creation of virtual enterprises of audiovisual researchers in the international arena using four case studies. These research experts, most of them freelancers, have extensive experience in locating images, negotiating licenses and liquidating rights to third parties as part of the task of documenting multimedia productions. The expanding broadcast horizons, the conquest of heterogeneous customers and the use of digital archives predict new development paths and a bright future for this profession in the digital age.
