Opis

By taking the example of the documentary Fort McMoney, the objective of my work is to highlight the fact that by using some of the new media of diffusion, but also of reception, we have, in front of the documentary image, the possibility of constructing, manipulating and changing the meaning of the informative content. By observing this new type of documentary, we can ask ourselves the following questions: how are these new images perceived? Does their treatment from a graphic and aesthetic point of view, their number and the links we can make between them have an influence on the way our society diffuses and understands them? The key point of my approach, but also the reason why I wanted to analyze the contemporary documentary, is to try to understand if our perception of the world is more nuanced and less accurate with regard to the increasingly present confusions between documentary images and fictional images. It is also about rethinking the role of the producers/designers of these images, and understanding how they can modify our perception of information.
