Tecmerin: Journal of Audiovisual Essays is a biannual, peer-reviewed journal that attempts to fill an inexistent space within the research fields of Communication and Popular Culture, creating an exchange platform for researchers, audiovisual creators and teachers. This journal is part of the activities of the research group Tecmerin (Television, Cinema, Memory, Representation and Industry) of Universidad Carlos III de Madrid (Department of Journalism and Media Studies). 

In the last years, researchers from different fields have turned towards audiovisual creation as part of their scientific output, beyond writing academic articles or books. In the contemporary digital era, it seems increasingly appropriate and relevant to utilize audiovisual language as a communication tool with the scientific community and wider audiences. Consequently, this journal tries to create an analytical forum that is suitable for novel formats in terms of research and audiovisual creation. 

Tecmerin: Revista de Ensayos Audiovisuales specifically focuses on Spanish and Latin American cultural production, although we are open to receive other proposals. Consequently, we specifically invite scholars, researchers and creators to send pieces centered on the production, consumption, circulation and cultural exchange within these geographical areas.
