MORA MOREO, CÉSAR; PUCCINI MONTOYA, ALESSANDRA and URIBE JONGBLOED, ENRIQUE. From media to convergence: The development of the expanded audiovisual space in Colombia. Inmediac. Comun [online]. 2021, vol.16, n.1, pp.59-85. Epub June 01, 2021. ISSN 1510-5091. https://doi.org/10.18861/ic.2021.16.1.3097.
This article presents an account of the contemporary transformations in the matter of legislation, production and consumption of audiovisual products -series, soap operas and films- through a review of the alterations, updates and changes experienced by the media in Colombia. This analysis starts from a basic concept that understands audiovisual media as an independent system -in terms of legislation, production, distribution and consumption processes-, and seeks to show the changes that currently derive in the construction of audiovisuals as a common or convergent space that crosses the creative, legislative and conceptual grounds. It evidences that some aspects of convergence were already present throughout the history of audiovisuals in Colombia, but they become more recognizable with the centralization of contemporary audiovisual policy.
Keywords : convergence; media; Colombia; media environment; media policy.
