Virtual production : uma análise do impacto da nova tecnologia de produção na narrativa seriada de ficção científica da série the mandalorian

Abstract

This dissertation questions how the extension of scenarios such as Virtual Production impacts contemporary audiovisual narrative. As the object, we chose science fiction stories that involve interplanetary travel. The proposed methodology is a case study and comparative analysis considering three different serial works, produced in different periods, namely the 1960s (Star Trek: The Original Series), the 1980s (Star Trek: The Next Generation) and 2019 (The Mandalorian), with an interval of 20 and 30 years, respectively, between each production. The preliminary exploration of the science fiction theme, to define the object, demonstrated a progressive increase in the number of titles related to this universe over time, with an apparent contact between the increase in techniques used to produce special effects, such as scenario extension, and their appropriation by audiovisual production processes
