Book Presentation:
This digital book will set out a problematized history of a form located at the crossroads of documentary cinema and the possibilities of the Web: the web documentary (or webdoc), a term used to describe Internet sites made up of multimedia elements in a non-linear structure which bear the signs of authorship, or an authorial intention. While it may be seen as a hybrid form with fleeting success (mostly in the early 2010s), we will examine the webdoc as a sign of contemporary mutations in documentary audiovisual practices, underscoring the consistently innovative artisanal experimentation which characterizes it.
