From the Office of Safety, Health and Environment, we would like to make known Science and… Action! It is a transversal project for the dissemination of science and health in the form of documentary short films for all audiences within the official Master’s Degree in Specialised Communication at the University of Barcelona.
This year, the short films focus, from a scientific perspective, on mental health and the impact of the digital environment on the construction of personal identity.
Throughout the academic year, the Master’s students have elaborated the documentation, pre-production, production and post-production of two audiovisual pieces that collect the fruits of the bulk of the Master’s academic training, where we start, on the one hand, the teachings related to the rigour in scientific documentation, on the one hand, the adaptation of scientific language to mass audiences, the treatment of complex concepts and research methodologies and, on the other hand, we work on narrative creativity, communication tools and resources and storytelling in audiovisual format.
The short films, which include interviews with various experts, will be presented and screened at the Filmoteca de Catalunya, where there will also be a round table discussion with Dr. Liliana Arroyo, Director General of the Digital Society of the Generalitat de Catalunya, Dr. Jordi Mas, Director General of the Catalan Foundation for Research and Innovation, Dr. Anna Tarragó, coordinator of the Master’s degree in Specialised Communication at the UB and Dr. Marta Consuegra, head of the project “Science and… Action!”
Before the end of the event, a Brompton M6L Black Edition TIJA+6 C LINE 2022 urban bicycle will be raffled among the students attending the event.
Attendance is free, but for capacity reasons it is necessary to register in advance.
