Description
We invite you to adopt a new way of working in communication and to identify the opportunity that new themes and emerging topics in this field represent”
Research in communication sciences has its own protocols. Learning to identify the right approach, depending on the purposes pursued in the project, and recognizing and mastering the right tools for its development, is not so easy. The speed of technological evolution, on the one hand, forces professionals to be in constant contact with innovation. On the other hand, changes in consumer profiles, attitudes and expectations, make the message itself and its reality changeable and different according to the variables involved.
This postgraduate diploma will methodically cover all aspects of this way of working. Traditional ways of doing research in already well-established media, such as television and film, will be approached with a novel and thriving addition: television in its on-demand format. Students shall study the variations in communication models and the most successful representations: Netflix, HBO and Amazon Prime, to understand the new codes in communication and forms of consumption.
With the same approach, students will study what has been called a mediamorphosis of communication spaces. Business opportunities, networking and applied research have migrated to new spaces and media. The module that covers this content will address the specificities of these new environments and the challenges to be faced when trying to make initiatives and projects visible.
An academic journey in which it is vital to identify the evolution of media and the codes used in each format. Facebook, Instagram, Twitter, and YouTube stand out as the new spaces where society interacts. In short, complete and practical study of what has been dubbed mediamorphosis.
