Abstract

ZIRION PEREZ, Antonio. Looks of complicity: Ethnographic cinema, collaborative strategies, and applied visual anthropology. Iztapalapa. Rev. cienc. soc. humanid. [online]. 2015, vol.36, n.78, pp.45-70. ISSN 2007-9176.  https://doi.org/10.28928/revistaiztapalapa/782015/atc2/zirionpereza.

This article attempts to systematize the bases, outline the contours and glimpse the scope of a fertile research method within contemporary ethnography. I intend to argue that collaborative documentary, anchored in the old tradition of ethnographic film and closely related to the young discipline of visual anthropology, foresees new horizons for anthropological theory and practice, based on the idea of an applied visual anthropology. In recent years, due to the digital image revolution, these collaborative strategies in audiovisual production increasingly constitute a reliable platform for intercultural dialogue.

Keywords : Ethnography; Documentary; Collaboration; Transcultural Cinema; Audiovisual Networks.
