Summary
SNOWFLAKE: an essay film by and for the youth is a portrait of the reality of younger generations. We put the focus on our surroundings and most inner circles so as to create our own story aside from the audiovisual forms of representation surrounding the topic of the so called “snowflake generation”. Do we feel too much? What difficulties must we face in our path towards (de)construction? What role do the spaces we inhabit play? How do we bond with other people?

Summary
With the emergence of new technologies, the consumption of entertainment and informational content has changed drastically, especially because it is linked to internet access and digital platforms, such as YouTube. Among the most notable phenomena of this transformation is BookTube, an online community formed by literary content creators, commonly called booktubers, who share book reviews and recommendations, mainly targeting a young audience. This thesis presents a detailed content analysis of the five most influential booktubers in Spain, selected on the basis of their activity, the number of subscribers and the relevance of their content. The aim is to understand the impact of these content creators, their communication strategies and how they contribute to the promotion and dissemination of reading among young people. The results reveal that booktubers have a significant influence on their audiences through literary recommendations and by encouraging debate and interaction on the platform. Thus, the study concludes that these literary influencers play a crucial role in contemporary cultural mediation, using digital platforms for the dissemination of literary content

Summary
Ethnographic documentary photography has emerged as a powerful tool for capturing the essence of our society, evolving from its auxiliary role in anthropological studies to an established branch of photography dedicated to preserving and disseminating traditions and ways of life. In Galicia, traditional music and dance are gaining increasing popularity, becoming cornerstones of Galician cultural identity. However, their preservation and transmission have always been challenging. The audiovisual photo-video project Raíces en Foco documents the process of collecting, preserving, and transmitting the autonomous comunity music and dance through the group Brincadeira, whose repertoire is based on extensive fieldwork throughout Galicia.

Summary
Podcast production and consumption have been exponentially rising for the past few years. Particularly, the ones centred on specialised topics, along with others whose content is developed through conversational techniques, documental explanation, or storytelling. This kind of product is well successful among young people, those called Generation Z. Meanwhile, history research is experiencing an increase in gender perspective investigations. In Galician history studies, a group of experts’ work stands out as they add this trend to their Middle Ages-focused projects. Given these two outlooks and both reaching their peaks, the present work proposes an educational podcast addressed to the Generation Z members that provides an approximation to the social conventions and daily lives of women from mediaeval Galicia in all three social estates, all through a five-profile selection and an adapted account of their biographies.

Summary
In recent years, the media landscape has transformed rapidly, with this change being partly driven by the emergence of digital journalism. The advent of digital-native and non-native media has made this a frequent area of study, alongside other topics such as journalistic specialization or mobile journalism. It is in this context that Feirantas was born: a digital and multiplatform native media outlet, specialized in culture and focused on the Santiago de Compostela area. This project aims to serve as a loudspeaker for those emerging artists who usually do not have a place in conventional media. In addition, we seek to disseminate the culture of this city through social networks with codes adapted to each of the platforms used: Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Spotify and a website, consciously chosen to reach our target audience, Generation Z. Therefore, the objective of this Final Degree Project is to collect the entire process of creation of the project, from its ideation phase to its implementation, concluding with the analysis of the results obtained and including the exposition of the media context where Feirantas is located.

Summary
This investigation consists of a qualitative content analysis of the information on music in three of the main Spanish generalist media (El País, La Vanguardia and El Mundo) in order to discover whether there are differences in the informative treatment between men and women in this field, known as sexism, and whether the generalist press treats cultural issues with rigour, as in this case that of music. To find out, two of the most important Spanish artists (in terms of impact, criticism and numbers) in recent years, Rosalía and C Tangana, were chosen as the object of study, and the news published during the years 2018, 2021, 2022 and 2023, when the artists launched new musical projects, were analysed. The research focused on the individual analysis of the news collected, but also took into account parameters of the overall set of information.

Summary
Born out of Franco's dictatorship 56 years ago, the Official Secrets Law is currently one of the most anachronistic aspects of Spanish legislation. Without reflecting any time limit for the declassification of documents, it places Spain as a benchmark of obscurantism, with a Congress Bureau that has prolonged more than eighty times the deadline for amendments to the proposal of the Basque Nationalist Party (PNV) to modify the Law. Is this parliamentary labyrinth only the result of political activity and configuration, and is there a real will to create a system in Spain that guarantees public access to information automatically after a certain period of time? This work gathers the petitions of researchers and historians to modify the Official Secrets Law, as well as their well-founded criticisms of the opacity of the institutions in key issues for democratic health. It also compiles the latest data on access to public information in the first decade after the entry into force of the Law on Transparency and Good Governance, as well as the failed and ongoing attempts to declassify historical archives. If those who have the information have the power... what real power do citizens have?

Summary
Currently there is no collaborative media outlet in the Galician language ecosystem that deals with the thematic diversity of the contemporaneous historical fashion. On its own, fashion is dammed by its connotations with vanity and whims; and also with the feminine. Besides, it is monopolized by historic publications such as Vogue or Harper's Bazaar that always publish about current trends. This medium will try to shed light into fashion from a diverse and intersectional prism, where everyone can coexist. not only the rich or normative people. That is why this project is not only the first outlet about historical fashion in Galician, but also in Spain. Its goals are to display fashion and its history through social networks and, with cocreation, give voice to realities outside the usual media's spotlight. This text details the bibliographic reviews about cybermedia, fashion journalism and its spreading. The project also details work done on internet platforms, the design and running of a cybermedium based on social networks. The result: A Hucha, a fashion cybermedium based on three participative and informative social media.

Summary
The recent emergence of new journalistic formulas and products has widened the range of possibilities that professionals in the sector can use to transmit the information and stories they wish to tell. The aim of this research is to verify whether the different characteristics of newsgames favour the transmission of themes specific to social journalism. In order to achieve the main objective of the work, the study is based on the analysis of the results of the examination of a set of pieces that are part of social-themed newsgames, interviews with their creators and the opinion of a sample of the population on their perception.

Summary
The rise of the Internet and social media has changed the way younger generations, like Generation Z, consume information. Today, this generation often receives information through mobile devices and social networks, but these people still feel underrepresented in traditional media. Therefore, this Final Degree Project aims to create a native digital medium specialized in Galician culture, with this language as a vehicular language, with a central axis on Instagram and with the possibility of accessing a website. Galician culture is wide, varied and rich and, in recent years, it has experienced a great boom thanks to young cultural creators. For this reason, this new medium, which is called A Vozes, is conceived as a space to give voice and space to new artists of Galician culture, specifically in the fields of literature, music and cinema.

Summary
Over the last few years, the bias to talk about the female experience has grown visibly on the net. Both with the intention of creating labels to fit different consumption trends disguised as different types of girls and with the intention of establishing what really defines the female identity, hundreds of statements and trends that orbit around these ideas invaded the social networks. This work was born from the intention to identify the attributes that define this phenomenon and to verify that hyper-femininity and the traditional conception of the feminine experience have a great influence on today's hegemonic discourses on feminine identity. Through qualitative and quantitative analysis of content associated with the phenomenon known as girl internet, and relying on the traditions of cultural and gender studies, this text seeks to demonstrate that these discourses reach their audience, on many occasions, in a veiled form which goes hand in hand with the incitement to capitalist consumption.

Summary
This Final Degree Project consists of a transmedia project set in the Camiño de Santiago and is structured around three axes: a web series, a podcast and a blog. The use of the legends and stories that inhabit the Camiño de Santiago will be the basis on which the three axes of the transmedia project are based, providing visibility to the Vía da Prata, one of the routes that has the lowest influx of pilgrims. To transmit the story, these three axes will be used in different ways, adapting them to transmedia characteristics. The web series, being the part dedicated to entertainment, will be the place where the story unfolds in a linear way. With the use of the podcast we will provide an educational and cultural part in which listeners will be able to learn about the Camiño de Santiago, as well as the history of the places it passes through. Finally, the blog will serve as an updated version of a logbook, uniting readers with the reflections of our star. Through the use of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) nature will become an essential part of the project.

Summary
Since it was coined in 1956 at the Dartmouth conference, the term «artificial intelligence» has been the subject of multiple definitions. It can be summarized as the ability of machines to perform tasks that previously could only be performed by the human mind (Boden, 2017). So far, the literature dealing with the study of artificial intelligence applied to communication has focused on automation in the production of news, in the processes of documentation, production and distribution of information and in the use of this technology to avoid misinformation. However, there are few studies focused on the media coverage of artificial intelligence is detected, with the exception of the first approaches presented by De Lara (2022). Since the discourses elaborated by the media around this new technology are a key factor in the configuration of the appreciations of the social mass, the purpose of this research is to prepare a study based on a content analysis of the Spanish media agenda complemented by in-depth interviews with experts and journalists and discussion groups with students to determine the potential and weaknesses of this coverage.

Summary
What stories do the photographs taken by our grandparents keep? What was life like in the places they portrayed? With these premises emerges the project Ciudá de ladrillo, a short documentary film that aims to compare the past in the small town of Pieles (Ourense) through the photographs and memories of their neighbours, while also capturing the depopulation of rural Galicia. Not only is the passage of time manifested in the people and their memories, but also in the stones that build each spot. Through the archive we can approach past times, hence the importance of knowing, conserving and preserving it. That is why, springing from the creation of this piece, a bibliographic review is included on the value of family photography and personal archives - often forgotten and neglected -, as well as on the applications that this type of material has when it comes to being reused for the creation of new audiovisual pieces.

Summary
Nowadays one of the most popular forms of entertainment is True Crime. Sensationalism and in many cases the lack of ethical practices make it a complex genre and worthy of analysis. This work arises from the need to explore its limits in depth, taking advantage of the mechanisms it offers to carry out a critique that incorporates the gender perspective and the Sustainable Development Goals. To achieve this, we carried out the pre-production, production and post-production of an original short film in mockumentary format that offers a different point of view on True Crime and its ethics.

Summary
True crime documentaries have become one of the major offerings of on-demand content platforms. However, the high cinematic quality of these productions does not ensure that they bear the journalistic seal. This study analyzes a sample of ten Netflix documentaries produced in Spain and the United States to determine whether these pieces can be considered investigative journalism or are merely entertainment products. To this end, a content analysis was conducted using a series of classification tables based on characteristics of investigative journalism. Their public ratings were also analyzed in two databases, IMDb and Filmaffinity, to complete the analysis and comparison between the countries in the sample: Spain and the United States. The results indicate that the films meet the requirements of an investigative piece by providing previously unpublished information, using a wide variety of sources, and contextualizing both the background and the current situation of the events. The study is complemented by four in-depth interviews with experts who add value to the research and help understand key aspects such as the standardization imposed by the platform and the future viability of the genre. Considering the changing tastes of the audience and the repetition of patterns in true crime, the sources suggest that it is necessary to reduce the production of this type of content to recover originality and innovate in narrative formulas.

Fantasy and the rest is a multimedia report that aims to raise awareness of drag culture in Galicia, a format and subject matter that is little exploited by the media. The story ranges from the origins of the discipline worldwide, through the Spanish context to the Galician context, still in a situation of ignorance, minorisation and prejudice despite the current success in other places. Through seven protagonists who experience the panorama first hand, the existing problems and the different proposals that are carried out are discovered in depth, while offering a close and natural portrait of the present and future of Galician drag.

Summary
Political communication through X, Telegram and Whatsapp is a tool widely used by the most prominent political parties and their corresponding leaders. This research aims to analyse the messages published by the main candidates through the aforementioned social and messaging networks during the election campaign corresponding to the elections held in the Autonomous Community of Galicia on 18 February 2024. Thus, we carried out a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the data provided by the messages posted on these platforms and the responses, if any, obtained. To complement the research, various interviews and a focus group were carried out. Some of the conclusions obtained are the generalised absence of conversation between politicians and the rest of the users, as well as corroborating the lack of use to present electoral programmes.

This research was conducted with the main objective of determining whether generalist media promote stigma related to mental health. To this end, the three most widely read newspapers in Galicia (La Voz de Galicia, Faro de Vigo, and El Progreso) were selected, and the content of their society sections was analyzed during the first two months of 2014, 2018, and 2024. Additionally, the most recurring topics in the news were identified, with the intention of determining which themes were most frequently covered in the three analyzed newspapers. The main conclusions indicated that there is no promotion of stigma related to mental health, although there was an observed lack of detailed and comprehensive coverage of mental disorders and other related topics.

Summary
Football has been and is the sport with the most fans in Spain. Currently, a major sector of journalism is dedicated to providing daily information and recounting events related to football stars. This causes that when in parties there are controversial arbitrary decisions, as well as scandals within organizations or in the clubs themselves, the news reaches a media dimension where they become a topic of public opinion. Football federations with corrupt, arbitrary charges received by clubs, racist violence in the fields... Despite having advanced socially in recent decades, Spain continues to experience aberrant situations at all levels of our football. Journalism, although not living its golden age, continues to treat this sport as its -pretty girl-, contributing to the social relevance that it has in society and feeding a business that manages very high numbers. On the other hand, the intrusism in the profession is very represented in the football guild, since in talks or debates it is not strange that there are more members with past within the sport than own journalists. This situation deepens the degradation of the profession, as well as the intrinsic characteristics of the trade that does not allow to perform a quiet work due to the needs demanded by the listeners/spectators/readers.

Summary
With this project we have set out to analyse the work of German director Rainer W. Fassbinder through three of his films (The bitter tears of Petra von Kant, A Year with Thirteen Moons and Querelle). Fassbinder, a key figure in the new German cinema alongside others like Werner Herzog and Wim Wenders, is known for his extensive filmography and his exploration of morbidity and the distribution of power in human relationships. His eccentric and pessimistic lifestyle, along with his obsessive focus, have made him a cult reference in subversive cinema. Our work aims to contribute to the existing theory on Fassbinder, supporting previous ideas and exploring new perspectives. We will use specific bibliography and academic writings to better understand his films. First, we will establish the theoretical and methodological foundations that will guide our analysis. We will continue to address the filmic construction of space, the scenography and the dramaturgical influence. We will explore the artificiality attributed to his filmography, the method of the performers and the interaction with music. We will also examine the composition and arrangement of images, as well as recurring motifs and intertextuality in all three films. Finally, we will present our conclusions, verifying our initial hypothesis and quoting all the sources consulted in a final reference annex.

SNOWFLAKE: an essay film by and for the youth is a portrait of the reality of younger generations. We put the focus on our surroundings and most inner circles so as to create our own story aside from the audiovisual forms of representation surrounding the topic of the so called “snowflake generation”. Do we feel too much? What difficulties must we face in our path towards (de)construction? What role do the spaces we inhabit play? How do we bond with other people?

The emergence of TikTok as a content creation platform has provided new communication opportunities for media and content developers. Without being an exception, those specialized in gossip information have also seen the potential of the application to reach new audiences and position themselves within the market thanks to the ease of the platform for content viralization. This research carries out a quantitative content analysis, useful to know in depth what the adaptation of the gossip magazines is like and differences, if any, with content creators with their own projects and it will serve as a basis for the development of @coraZonZeta, a profile on the social network that seeks to optimize the resources and tools that the platform makes available to the user.

Summary
In the backdrop of contemporary society, where visual and auditory narratives wield significant impact, emerges Silencios Rotos, a musical short film that ventures into the intricate terrain of mental health. In an attempt to surpass the stigmatization and lack of understanding surrounding mental illnesses, this Audiovisual Communication final degree project delves into the experience of anxiety, illuminating its complexity through a blend of music, performance, and cinematography. The choice to address anxiety as a central theme is not arbitrary; it reflects the growing importance of initiating a sincere and reflective dialogue about mental health in today's society. Through the protagonist, a young individual passionate about video recording and video games, we aim to transcend the barriers of stigma and explore the multiple emotional layers that constitute the experience of anxiety This project aspires not only to entertain but to serve as a catalyst for understanding and empathy. Each musical note, every visual sequence, and every spoken word seeks to weave a narrative tapestry that not only unveils the different phases of anxiety but also underscores the importance of openly discussing mental health. Silencios Rotos is not merely a musical short film, it is an effort to shed light on a reality often overshadowed, inviting the audience to reflect on the significance of listening and comprehending the complexities of the human mind.

Summary
This Final Degree Project carries out a season-by-season study of the most prominent personalities of Spanish football from the beginning of the 20th century until the 1955/56 season, the year in which the European Cup was born, a fact that coincides with the arrival of the television to Spain in 1956. The analysis will be carried out only on the football career of the different protagonists, thus excluding any other merit related to other positions such as referee, manager or coach. The study aims to distinguish the main figures of national football, those who became stars before the appearance of television and whose history has not had as much significance as that of other later footballers. The results show how Spanish football experienced another golden era during the 1920s and 1930s, as well as a great decline in the post-war period. On the other hand, it also shows a great predominance of players belonging to Athletic Club de Bilbao, Fútbol Club Barcelona and Real Madrid Club de Fútbol.

Summary
The influence of sports journalism on new platforms such as YouTube and Twitch has transformed the landscape for both media outlets and communication professionals. These emerging trends have created significant job opportunities. Journalists venturing onto these platforms find greater creative freedom compared to traditional media. Furthermore, they can interact more directly with their audience through comments, subscriptions, donations, and reactions. New forms of communication, such as live streaming and podcasts, have also emerged as viable options. We began our research with a historical approach to sports journalism, observing the changes it has undergone to the present day, followed by basic notions of the functioning of YouTube and Twitch and the impact and changes they have produced in both sports journalism and sports broadcasting, based on documentary sources, personal accounts, and data.

Summary
The birth of the Internet completely transformed the patterns of content creation and dissemination in the media, giving rise to digital journalism. With the creation of the network, journalists and media outlets have had to adapt to new methodologies, formats, and techniques, while trying to meet the needs of a society that demands communicative speed, interactivity, and constant connection. In addition to adapting to web spaces, in the last decade they have had to adjust to the growing importance of social networks, creating profiles where they share the information they publish. TikTok is a social network mainly dedicated to entertainment created in 2017. In recent years, many media outlets have decided to start working on the platform to attract a younger and more active audience, as well as to offer information in a more dynamic way, accessible to everyone. This study aims to identify the initiatives implemente on the platform by the media El Mundo, Cadena SER, and RTVE, through an analysis of the content published by these accounts during the month of February 2024.

Summary
War correspondent is one of the most valued and dangerous branches of journalism. The importance of the figure of the war photojournalist lies in the fact that by being on the ground to report on a conflict, he puts his life at risk to analyze, interpret and inform the rest of the population about what is happening in countries such as Ukraine and Palestine. The use of images in these conflicts not only helps to inform and contribute to political decision-making, but also works to empathize with the victims and get closer to them. Therefore, the purpose of this paper is to analyze 94 photographs of both conflicts published in El País and Al-Jazeera in order to know how these media present a point of view from different informative positions.

Summary
Advertising has existed since time immemorial. Its evolution and constant development are unquestionable, so its presence in social networks is inevitable. The commercial sector has adapted to the digital medium by squeezing its main protagonists, the influencers. These are figures who are generally native to the networks, capable of influencing and setting trends among viewers. This is how influencer marketing was born, a communication technique in networks through the use of content creators. This thesis explores the use of advertising on social networks through influencers. In addition, it analyzes the strategies used and questions the legality of the actions used to promote according to current regulations and deontology. In an analytical way, a monitoring and collection of publications of the most influential content creators in Spain has been carried out. In order to delve deeper into the matter, information provided by experts in audiovisual communication and advertising has been incorporated, as well as influencers' experiences and the testimony of a representation agency. The results point to the lack of engagement of influencers with their audience and the need to update Spanish legislation.

Summary
Over the last few years, there has been a certain online tendency to consume certain content as a mockery or to laugh at it. This is the phenomenon that will be the subject of study in this research, the Hate-watch. Many critics and scholars have conducted research into what it meant to be a fan over the years and, more recently, what it meant to be an anti-fan. These concepts are part of Internet culture along with others that have also become very relevant, such as cringe and virality. This investigation will seek to understand numerous Internet phenomena as well as what really dictates whether you are a fan or not, bringing us closer to the enjoyment aspect that seems to go hand in hand with doing Hate-watch. This study will be carried out from numerous perspectives. On the one hand, from the point of view of fan studies, who will lay the foundations by investigating the academic point of view of what it means to be a fan. The personal perspective that I can provide as an online user and consumer of Hate-watch will also be taken into account. The next perspective is that of the real and current audience. Three methodologies will be used, structured interviews, online survey and case study to analyze possible behavioral patterns that users present. The main objective is to explore this new mode of consumption and check if it is more present in the lives of the average user than we might initially think.

Summary
One important part of the video games development is the one that focuses on the design of the virtual camera. Some titles present a very cinematic camera composition, with a certain influence and similarity with the composition of shots that we can see in the audiovisual language of series or films. Therefore, this work seeks to investigate the influence of the theory of cinematographic language inside the design and composition of video game cameras and question how close these two artistic and cultural disciplines are. To do this, we créate a theoretical framework where we collect relevant information regarding: film composition and planning, virtual game cameras design and the most relevant genres within the video game industry. Subsequently, we select a sample of the best-rated games framed in each genre according to Vandal's classification and analyze the use made of the camera based on these parameters. In the conclusions, we can see that most of the virtual camera configurations respond to the need of seek efficiency and immersion, leaving the artistic sense of its composition in the background.

Summary
This Final Degree Project consists of a transmedia project set in the Camiño de Santiago and is structured around three axes: a web series, a podcast and a blog. The use of the legends and stories that inhabit the Camiño de Santiago will be the basis on which the three axes of the transmedia project are based, providing visibility to the Vía da Prata, one of the routes that has the lowest influx of pilgrims. To transmit the story, these three axes will be used in different ways, adapting them to transmedia characteristics. The web series, being the part dedicated to entertainment, will be the place where the story unfolds in a linear way. With the use of the podcast we will provide an educational and cultural part in which listeners will be able to learn about the Camiño de Santiago, as well as the history of the places it passes through. Finally, the blog will serve as an updated version of a logbook, uniting readers with the reflections of our star. Through the use of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) nature will become an essential part of the project.

Summary
To the detriment of traditional fashion magazines, in the current digital era, social media platforms constitute a fundamental medium through which fashion trends are communicated and consumed. Particularly, Instagram has emerged as an essential platform where megainfluencers and macroinfluencers play a crucial role in disseminating the latest trends. Fashion communication today has moved away from lengthy articles that explained the current fashion and trends. Now, the dissemination of fashion is done through photo carousels and short reels, which constitute visual and dynamic elements. These formats aim to capture the attention of an audience accustomed to the saturation of digital content. In this study, a content analysis will be conducted covering ten megainfluencers, ten macroinfluencers, and ten trends. This approach will allow for the comparison of the different communication strategies employed by both types of influencers, as well as the collection of data regarding the dynamics of trend communication today. The study reveals significant differences in the number of posts and trends shared by the two types of influencers. Additionally, not all influencers considered 'fashion influencers' communicate fashion actively.

Summary
The main objective of the following paper is to study the British media coverage of the 23rd of July 2023 Spanish general election. To fulfill this objective, a quantitative study was carried out by utilizing the content analysis technique applied to the journalistic pieces centered around the election and the subsequent government formation process that were published on the websites of The Times, The Guardian, The Telegraph and the BBC. The selected variables were based on the quantification of parameters such as the volume of pieces published, their distrinution over time, their genre, subject and the possibility of their author being a freelance journalist or correspondent. In addition, a series of parameters inspired by the characteristics of British electoral coverage observed by Deacon and Harmer (2019) (personalization, presidentialization, negativity and framing) were established. The results of the analysis show, among other factors, very low levels of personalization in the general approach of the analyzed pieces, a high degree of presidentialization focused on the figures of Pedro Sánchez and Alberto Núñez Feijóo as representatives of the Government and the opposition, a negativity rate of 85% in the sample and a clear prevalence of the strategic game frame over the issue frame.

Summary
The informative treatment in cases of disappearance and murder is a topic that, within journalism, causes a great debate about how to carry it out. Naturally, this type of event has not always been covered in the same way, so, in this Final Degree Project, one of the main questions that will be addressed is how media coverage has evolved in this type of events. For this, we have chosen one of the most emblematic cases in the history of the press, this being of the Alcàsser girls (1992), and another that shocked an entire society, that of the sisters Anna and Olivia (2021). In turn, the other relevant issue that concerns this work is the personality rights and the freedom of the press recognized as fundamental rights in the Spanish Constitution. How the media respected or violated these norms will be studied and evaluated, also addressing journalistic ethics.

This Final Degree Project (FDP), entitled Reportaxe multimedia: A memoria histórica en Boimorto, shows the importance of journalism in the work of preservation and dissemination of historical memory. Through the realization of a multimedia report entitled Morreu o boi, non a memoria, it gives visibility to one of the thousands of cases of repression during the Civil War. In Galicia the period of conflict had different characteristics compared to the rest of the State, there was no direct confrontation but the oppression was exercised in another way, in most cases through walks. The central axis of the report is what happened to twelve men repressed in Boimorto, the municipality in A Coruña with the most murdered councilmen. Through the memories of family members, official data of the time, subsequent academic research, etc., what happened is reconstructed, a reason is sought and the memory of the victims is dignified. In conclusion, this work will value the social responsibility of the profession as well as contribute to the knowledge about the relevance of the past in the present.

Summary
Social media has emerged as the most popular means of communication. Football clubs have not overlooked this trend and now focus their communication strategies on these platforms. This study analyzes how the four Galician football clubs with the most online impact, R.C. Celta de Vigo, Deportivo de La Coruña, Racing Club de Ferrol, and C.D. Lugo, use these channels. The sample includes more than 3,700 posts on their X, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok accounts. Various metrics and formats were analyzed to determine which institutions manage these networks best and what the ideal way to post on each platform is. Interviews with the social media managers of these clubs were also conducted. The results show a clear preference for visual content, emphasizing images and videos. X is the platform with the highest posting intensity, while Instagram generates the most interactions. Celta has the best average interactions per post, Dépor stands out for more consistent results across all networks, and C.D. Lugo shows the poorest data. The interviews confirm that the clubs promote the defense of Galician culture and values.

Summary
This study examines how Save the Children, a non-governmental organisation working for children's rights, disseminates its reports using effective strategies such as regionalisation and fragmentation of content to achieve a strong positioning in the media and robust media coverage of its narratives. It also explores how the organisation uses these materials as strategic tools to influence policy. Using a theoretical framework based on the theories of agenda-setting, framing and priming, it analyses the implementation of the aforementioned communication techniques and how they maximise the organisation's media and political impact. Through a detailed study evaluating media coverage of Save the Children's reports over a three-month period, this paper highlights how these strategies not only capture attention in a short-lived news cycle, but also foster greater understanding and action on significant long-term issues. This approach proves to be an effective model for other organisations seeking to influence public policy and secure sustainable change.

It also explores how the organisation uses these materials as strategic tools to influence policy. Using a theoretical framework based on the theories of agenda-setting, framing and priming, it analyses the implementation of the aforementioned communication techniques and how they maximise the organisation's media and political impact. Through a detailed study evaluating media coverage of Save the Children's reports over a three-month period, this paper highlights how these strategies not only capture attention in a short-lived news cycle, but also foster greater understanding and action on significant long-term issues. This approach proves to be an effective model for other organisations seeking to influence public policy and secure sustainable change.

Summary
For more than 60 years, Spain lived under the threat of various terrorist groups, including the protagonist of this project, ETA. In order to understand how the armed gang functioned, it is necessary to explain how it was born, how it evolved and how it dissolved. The mark it left on society is so large that the media still give it media coverage, but it is not the same as during the 70s and 80s, the period with the most murders and attacks. Through a content analysis of the newspapers ABC and El País, the aim is to explain the news treatment given to terrorism according to the editorial line of each newspaper.

Summary
Bachelor’s Final Project based on the creation of an audiovisual work in Galician, specifically a piece of non-fiction. It is a documentary starring the inhabitants of the Illa de Arousa who recount their experiences in relation to the construction of the bridge in 1985. The 40th anniversary of this event will be commemorated in 2025. The aim of this audiovisual production is to collect and capture the history and memories of the galician land, in this case focusing on the island and its evolution, and thus disseminate knowledge of the life and Galician coastal culture. The main means of diffusion would be social networks and festivals. And furthermore, on the occasion of the 40th anniversary, the city hall could be interested in our work as a tool to make their history known.

In the Final Degree Project (FDP), titled Creation of a visual concept for the artistic design of an experimental dreamlike feature film, an artistic dossier is developed for a movie centered around the figure of a drag queen in a fictional and dreamlike setting. This artwork encompasses all the elements involved in this discipline, from costumes to set design, including makeup and hairstyling. It is a completely new and innovative approach based on actions set in a fantastic space where very different things can be created compared to what is seen in real life. What cannot be seen materially and exists only in the popular imagination can have infinite interpretations; thus, creativity knows no bounds in this project. Throughout this document, proposals for all the disciplines involved in art direction can be seen, with each discipline directly linked to the previous and the next, thereby creating a cohesive and coherent whole.

Entre contos e realidades is presented as a non-fiction short film that uses the domestic material collected by my parents as a starting point to delve into the childhoods of LGBTIQ people. From personal experience, combined with the testimony of other people, it reflects on terms such as ‘coming out of the wardrobe’, identity, family relationships in these situations and self-acceptance contrary to stereotypes inherited from childhood and still in force today. It establishes a critical vision of the different aspects that surround these childhoods, from the family environment to the collective itself. Using an intimate tone and with an aesthetic similar to that of a fairy tale, this film essay aims to highlight the innocence and vulnerability present in the childhood of any person, without the people of the collective being an exception to this. The written work includes a theoretical framework of the piece, the memory with the artistic and technical processes and decisions; and a proposal for the distribution of the piece.

In this Final Degree Project we find the process of creating a printed fashion and lifestyle magazine with a regional scope, from the idea to its materialization. It starts from a previous investigation on editorial design and a historical review of magazines on this subject, covering the presence of these publications in the Galician community today. The first issue of BRINKO is the result of this project. The first magazine printed in Galician, which aims to be a window for the Galician fashion and art industry, with a special focus on new creators. Interviews, photo editorials, opinion articles and, in general, analytical and in-depth content on the emerging cultural scene, fill the pages of this new independent publication.

With the technological revolution of recent years, sports journalism has been one of the professions that has changed the most, as it began to experiment with new formats on platforms other than the conventional ones. These changes have created uncertainty in the profession, which is why the aim is to look for the causes of these changes and to find out what it is like to work within new initiatives on different platforms. To this end, a case study of three initiatives was carried out: PostUnited, La Media Inglesa and NicoAbadTV. Interviews were also conducted with the professionals behind these projects. Furthermore, this research aims to determine whether technology is really solely responsible for this change in the profession.

Summary
This work focuses on the evolution of women’s participation as directors and scriptwriters in the period from 2013 to 2022 in Spain. To carry out the research, a three-sided metholodogy has been implemented, by means of quantitave and qualitative analysis. In the quantitative part, what has been studied is the proportion of women in directing and scriptwriting roles related to Spanish cinema production and their presence in cinema rooms, awards and festivals. The qualitative part includes semistructured interviews with filmmakers and scriptwriters (n=10), providing an empirical vision of the sector which supports the data. The results show a slow but steady increase of women presence in the industry in recent years, determined by the impact of feminist movements and state-managed political decisions to promote the participation of women professionals in power-wielding positions and the creation of contents within the sector. However, significant barriers and inequalities still remain in terms of access and recognition. The conclusions of this study highlight the need to continue promoting equality policies that encourage the contribution and visibility of women filmmakers, a crucial circumstance to the construction of a pluralistic and inclusive cinema.

Precision journalism or data journalism has become a key aspect of sports journalism. Both the chronicles in print, as well as broadcasts and radio programmes focus a large part of their content on the statistical analysis of the sports discipline they are dealing with. Data have been part of sport for many years, but the appearance of Big Data and new technologies for collecting them has caused a great explosion and a great increase in the relevance of this type of numerical information. In this paper we will learn how data sports journalism has evolved, we will observe which are the main metrics that are used and how they are collected, and finally we will show a study on the effective time in the Spanish football league, an issue that has received great prominence in recent years and that can be explained perfectly through data.

Summary
The representation of women in the media and especially the written press during the Franco dictatorship was characterized by the use of persuasive propaganda strategies, which sought to build a feminine identity based on Falangist and Catholic values. The Sección Femenina and the Catholic Church were the main ones in charge of disseminating principles that tried to present an angelic woman, caretaker of the home, perfect mother and wife, always in line with the principles of the Movement. It delves into how propaganda and media censorship contributed to consolidating a conflicting message about women, since they are always presented as an imperfect being, subordinate to men and subject to traditional roles, but at the same time their figure is mythologized within the regime due to its procreative capacity. Furthermore, it is pointed out how the language and lexical formalities used in the newspapers reflected and reinforced this social gender hierarchy, which has been analyzed through the review of fifty headlines belonging to the newspaper El Pueblo Gallego, with great impact and ally of Francoism during his years in office.

This project proposes the development of a thematic podcast about sportwashing, or in other words, how different countries use sport to wash their public image before the world. To narrow it down further, we will focus on two countries: Qatar and Saudi Arabia; and the sport will be football. The podcast aims to offer the audience loyal, truthful content with verified information in an exercise of high-quality investigative journalism to demonstrate that great journalistic content can be made through one of the currently booming platforms, the podcast.

Summary
El cuerpo que existe más que yo is an audiovisual short film based on archival footage that reflects relationships and nostalgia through the subcultural movement of La Ruta del Bacalao. Using an informative approach, it analyzes its history and key figures, showing the avant-garde and artistic variety in Valencia during the 1980s. Simultaneously, the narrative voice articulates a second poetic line, reflecting on nostalgia and liquid relationships nowadays. Through the combination of both, the work creates an intergenerational perspective on memory, remembrance, and its idealization.

Summary
Galician public television is usually one of the references when it comes to talking about local sport. There are many people and institutions that recognise this channel as one of the media that most relies on the development and visibility of sportsmen and women through its news coverage. The aim of this work is to check the extent of TVG's commitment to Galician sport and to make a comparison with other channels by exploring its media agenda. By means of a content analysis of the different products offered and the programming of the group's two TDT channels, with an emphasis on the news programmes, this study aims to find out to what extent this commitment is a reality, also covering topics such as women's sport, minority sports and the opinion of the audience.

Summary
The main objective pursued by this Project is to discover, thanks to the study of the necessary documentation, the ideological core of the political group of VOX, as well as to study the communication that said group makes through Instagram. The method used for the achievement of this objective goes through a review of the literatura to know the most theoretical aspects, and a content analysis, which seeks to know the particularities of the message of training through the social network. Based on what has been studied, we discover that VOX is a radical right-wing party, with four basic pillars: nationalism, nativism, authoritarianism and the detention of traditional values. As for Instagram, they present a very careful and elaborate content.

Summary
This Final Degree Project consists of a transmedia project set in the Camiño de Santiago and is structured around three axes: a web series, a podcast and a blog. The use of the legends and stories that inhabit the Camiño de Santiago will be the basis on which the three axes of the transmedia project are based, providing visibility to the Vía da Prata, one of the routes that has the lowest influx of pilgrims. To transmit the story, these three axes will be used in different ways, adapting them to transmedia characteristics. The web series, being the part dedicated to entertainment, will be the place where the story unfolds in a linear way. With the use of the podcast we will provide an educational and cultural part in which listeners will be able to learn about the Camiño de Santiago, as well as the history of the places it passes through. Finally, the blog will serve as an updated version of a logbook, uniting readers with the reflections of our star. Through the use of the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) nature will become an essential part of the project.

Summary
This work is part of the area of mobile cyberjournalism, or the practice of digital journalism on smart mobile devices. The nature of digital instruments allows cyberspace to be used to transmit information, using the interactivity of hypertext, multimedia content and memory in networks (Díaz Noci, 2008). The use of mobile phones makes it possible to produce new journalistic content through different channels and to approach audiences that are refractory to other communication channels, or that are simply digital natives and their main means of communication are social networks. Compostelarte_ is a digital native medium that aims to bring university students from Santiago de Compostela closer to the artistic activities that take place in art galleries, libraries, museums and bookshops in the city, contents usually far from the areas of interest of our university colleagues, either because of the places where they take place or because of the type of events that take place in them. It is proposed to create a digital communication channel through one of the most used social networks by university students, Instagram, and to produce relevant information that increases student visits to exhibitions, book presentations and cultural events in general.

Summary
In the current media landscape, disinformation also appropriates the audiovisual. In this context, deepfakes emerge, defined as audio, video or image files generated through artificial intelligence (AI) that realistically manipulate or imitate information, making it appear truthful and deceiving the receiver by presenting it as authentic and real content. This study aims to analyse the phenomenon of deepfakes, covering their origin, evolution, tools that enable their creation and verification. Through a detailed analysis of existing audiovisual generation applications, an exploratory research on Google Trends searches for the term and a formal and qualitative analysis of ten deepfakes present in Spanish verification platforms, the aim is to offer a comprehensive understanding of this phenomenon, highlighting both its potential and the dangers associated with its misuse.

Summary
This TFG research analyzes the coverage of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict by the main Western (CNN, BBC, RTVE) and Arab (Al Jazeera) media corporations, as well as the Israeli (KAN) and Palestinian (PBC) public media. The aim is to observe differences in the positioning of content between media or websites of the same company, contrasts when reporting on actions or individuals, the level of depth of the news and the diversity of sources used. Also, the possible correlations between entities and various variables that may influence them. To this end, five representative milestones of the conflict that have occurred since October 7 are examined. The study is carried out in two phases. The first phase analyzes the amount of information available, the ease of access to it and the presence, or not, of specific sections; and the second phase studies the approach, terminology, depth, variety of sources and integrated audiovisual content. It can be seen how some corporations facilitate, to a greater extent, access to information on the conflict to societies far from the conflicts than to those close to them. It can also be seen how certain media do not report on some events while others overlook relevant evidence.

Summary
The current panorama within social journalism is complex, since modern factors such as the immediacy of information have produced a certain decline of specializations in the journalistic sector that require broader and more relaxed news coverage. In addition, podcasting, as a reference format in the current media, faces a completely collapsed and over-informed environment. Within this current panorama of social journalism and podcasting, the Anónimas? project arises, a social podcast that addresses different types of discrimination suffered by certain groups and communities in vulnerable situations. It was determined that for this project to be complete, truthful and transversal, the episodes would be thematic, that is, they would address discrimination from different angles of today's society. This is a product TFG. The first part of the work consists of a contextual framework on specialized journalism and, more specifically on social journalism, and the podcasting phenomenon that serves to frame the product that is developed in the second part, i.e. a social-themed podcast in which different types of discrimination will be addressed throughout the seasons. In addition, the planning of a media strategy in social networks to disseminate the project is configured.

Although it is a practice that already existed in the last century, in recent years the concept of sportwashing has become popular due to certain policies of some states in which they try to improve their public image and establish themselves on the international scene through the use of sport. The aim of this research, in which information on this subject in the national and international media is analysed and interviews are carried out with communication professionals, is to find out the characteristics of this type of news, differentiate the news trends in each country, understand the context in which they are produced and the difficulties journalists face in producing these publications.

Summary
Within the complex panorama of digital platforms that act as intermediaries between content creators and audiences to produce audiovisual entertainment on the Internet, two of them are the absolute leaders in their respective fields. While YouTube maintains its position as the preferred website for Internet users to upload and consume videos, the rise of the Twitch platform, aimed at streaming live videos, revolutionized everything, especially after the covid pandemic. Even though both websites were initially conceived with an inherently different function, the truth is that the rivalry is fierce. Content creators are constantly debating how to manage their activity between the two platforms as they try to figure out which is the most beneficial for them when it comes to surviving in the competitive landscape of audiovisual content creation. Given this situation, this work aims to analyze in depth both platforms, YouTube and Twitch, assessing their different characteristics to make a comparison between the two and establish what each one can offer creators. Thus, aspects such as their respective monetization channels, their autoregulation or their possibilities of interaction with the audience will be studied. In the same way, it is intended to define the factors that can influence the migration between pages, especially considering the rise of creators who abandoned YouTube in favor of Twitch.

Given this situation, this work aims to analyze in depth both platforms, YouTube and Twitch, assessing their different characteristics to make a comparison between the two and establish what each one can offer creators. Thus, aspects such as their respective monetization channels, their autoregulation or their possibilities of interaction with the audience will be studied. In the same way, it is intended to define the factors that can influence the migration between pages, especially considering the rise of creators who abandoned YouTube in favor of Twitch.

Summary
Political communication through X, Telegram and Whatsapp is a tool widely used by the most prominent political parties and their corresponding leaders. This research aims to analyse the messages published by the main candidates through the aforementioned social and messaging networks during the election campaign corresponding to the elections held in the Autonomous Community of Galicia on 18 February 2024. Thus, we carried out a quantitative and qualitative analysis of the data provided by the messages posted on these platforms and the responses, if any, obtained. To complement the research, various interviews and a focus group were carried out. Some of the conclusions obtained are the generalised absence of conversation between politicians and the rest of the users, as well as corroborating the lack of use to present electoral programmes.

Summary
This work presents How much are you willing to risk? Radiography of gambling in Spain, a series of three reports that aim to shape a global investigation into the phenomenon of gambling, both on-site and online. Individual narratives wich in turn create a collective story are constructed through multimedia journalism, which allows the combination of a long list of elements and the user's interaction with them. This text, which is the result of months of documentation in the field of digital journalism and specialised journalism, exposes and explains the methodology used to launch the report. The work consisted of the production, writing and dissemination of three long reports on different aspects of gambling, with an emphasis on those social strata that are most unprotected and defenceless against the unstoppable advance of the gambling mentality implanted in society.

Summary
Ondas de Aquí is a multimedia report that aims to review the situation of the municipal radio stations operating in Galicia, starting from its beginnings in 1980 with the launch of the ephemeral Radio As Mariñas, in Oleiros, and continuing with the creation of the EMUGA collective and dozens of other stations in the different municipalities of the community. The project included an update of the list of active radio stations, with a series of data on their operation that allows us to understand the current reality of these media. For this purpose, different lists of radio stations were used as a starting point and more than 30 interviews were carried out, either in person, by telephone or by e-mail with the heads of the radio stations or the staff of the different town councils. In selected cases, these interviews were recorded on video so that they could be included in the multimedia report in a more visual way. The result of the project is a web that helps to understand the importance of these media in their respective municipalities. It also shows that each of the radio stations works in a particular way, although they share the objective of producing a local product and also problems such as the lack of staff, which limits the amount of their own programming.

Summary
MaRisa (2024) is a webseries framed within the documentary genre that offers an approach to the life of the main character and mother of the director, María Luisa Santiago Campaña (1966;2021). The piece is divided into chronologically ordered chapters that narrate and explain the different stages of her existence, even going so far as to describe her absence in the last one of them. Due to her death, interviews with her family and friends are used along with home movies capable of providing the veracity of what is being told, managing to compose the narrative and generate a discourse of nostalgia and absence throughout the entire work. Along these lines, this document exposes the importance of recycling and preserving found footage as it helps to remember through emotions a person who is no longer here, to value them after the passage of time and to make them known for all those who did not have the opportunity to do so.

Summary
Nowadays most food and restaurant businesses use social media as a method of advertising to publicize their products and services in a closer and organic way. The problem arises when, due to lack of knowledge or lack of time, the content they create ends up being dull and unprofessional. Thus, this project proposes the creation and development of Atabey, a digital marketing company specialized in the food and resturant sector with a very strong identity stamp; healthy and sustainable food. At the same time, research will be carried out on the fundamental theoretical concepts for its implementation, such as the analysis of digital marketing strategies in the sector, the design of the corporate image and branding, the identification and segmentation of the audience and the challenges that may arise in the process such as business and online competition, and the need to convey authenticity, originality and values.

Today's societies have a common feature that has become increasingly noticeable over the years: the ageing of the population. Due to ingrained stereotypes, this phenomenon has led to a constant discriminatory practice towards older people: ageism. In this work, the aim is, through a multimedia report, to show a reality that has been silenced and forgotten by the media. It includes interviews and testimonies of people who, once they have reached retirement age, continue to be socially active.

“Loneliness in the era of connectivity” is a multimedia photo report that aims to shed light and focus on a growing problem in today's society: loneliness. This silent epidemic is increasingly common and according to the latest studies it has skyrocketed since the Covid-19 pandemic. Despite living in the most connected time in history (thanks to social networks, the Internet and telecommunications systems we are globally connected) the reality is that feelings of loneliness increase. Does this have anything to do with the Internet and social media? Are they part of the problem or the solution? Does it affect all ages equally? What can help us and what harms us the most? Throughout the report and through photographs, videos, testimonies and interviews, loneliness is covered from all its branches and perspectives.

Summary
In recent years, the media landscape has transformed rapidly, with this change being partly driven by the emergence of digital journalism. The advent of digital-native and non-native media has made this a frequent area of study, alongside other topics such as journalistic specialization or mobile journalism. It is in this context that Feirantas was born: a digital and multiplatform native media outlet, specialized in culture and focused on the Santiago de Compostela area. This project aims to serve as a loudspeaker for those emerging artists who usually do not have a place in conventional media. In addition, we seek to disseminate the culture of this city through social networks with codes adapted to each of the platforms used: Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Spotify and a website, consciously chosen to reach our target audience, Generation Z. Therefore, the objective of this Final Degree Project is to collect the entire process of creation of the project, from its ideation phase to its implementation, concluding with the analysis of the results obtained and including the exposition of the media context where Feirantas is located.

Music videos can be published either as a means of promoting an artist’s music, as a means of artistic expression or as both of them. The present project investigates the evolution of music videos since they were invented, as well as it examinates the operation and state of the music industry, specially at a national and autonomous level, due to its intimate relation to the music video industry. It is conducted a profound study regarding the industries in which the business is involved, which are the music video industry and the audiovisual production companies' industry, in order to analyse the business’ viability and observe the competition’s work and the potential customers’ opinion. Furthermore, a pilot product is provided as a sample of the business’ work, in addition to a meticulous report of how its creation process went on, istinguishing between the preproduction, filming, and postproduction phases.

Summary
Bachelor’s Final Project based on the creation of an audiovisual work in Galician, specifically a piece of Non-Fiction. It is a documentary starring the inhabitants of the Illa de Arousa who recount their experiences in relation to the construction of the bridge in 1985. The 40th anniversary of this event will be commemorated in 2025. The aim of this audiovisual production is to collect and capture the history and memories of our land, in this case focusing on the island and its evolution, and thus disseminate knowledge of the land and Galician coastal culture. The main means of diffusion would be social networks and festivals. And furthermore, on the occasion of the 40th anniversary, the city hall could be interested in our work as a tool to make history known.

Summary
This Bachelor's Thesis consists of the development of a communication platform on the social network Instagram, focused on women's soccer in the Costa da Morte region, called Mareando o Xogo (Dizzying the Game). This hyperlocal project, given its specific geographical scope, arises in response to the limited visibility that female soccer players still face in the media, particularly in coastal soccer. Faced with this information gap, Mareando o Xogo aims to be the voice of the players, providing a comfortable and trustworthy space where they can express themselves freely. To achieve these goals, new technologies and formats will be utilized, leveraging the extensive reach of social media, which has become the most widely used source of information by society today. Mareando o Xogo consists of four main sections: Pasa a Pelota (Passing the Ball), Fóra de Xogo (Off the Field), Un día nas botas de... (A Day in the Boots of...), and Parada Técnica (Technical Break), through which the aim is to showcase how these women experience soccer and also to delve deeper into their lives beyond the playing field.

Summary
The advance of the feminist movement throughout the 19th century crystallized in a series of events that transformed Spanish society. One of the main milestones that marked the evolution of the social and cultural reality of nineteenth-century Spain was the emergence of women in the media. The birth of La Pensadora Gaditana, founded in 1763 by Beatriz Cienfuegos, was the inauguration of feminist journalism, a trend that led to the opening of new spaces for reflection within the profession and the incorporation of new perspectives in the informative task. Amazonas: avance y revolución en el periodismo is a report that aims to investigate the changes that have taken place in feminist journalism since its origins, as well as to delve into the current challenges through a documentary review and a series of interviews that will present the perspective of different professionals in this field of communication.

Summary
In a social and cultural scenario in which artistic representations of identity, the search for belonging or the vindication of territory are consolidated as a counter-reaction to phenomena such as globalisation, nostalgia and the vindication of expressions of traditional culture seem to consolidate as the solution to this need to define one's personality in society. In recent times, people have begun to speak of the ‘modernisation of traditional culture’ as a way of reinterpreting popular culture and bringing it closer to the language of today in order to introduce it to new audiences.In order to reflect on all these questions and to give a voice to some of the projects that are leading this movement, A Romaría Gzeta is born as a Final Degree Project. A multimedia report that aims to construct an allegory of what a traditional pilgrimage could be if it were defined from the codes of the present. At the same time, it demonstrates that the transformation is transversal to all cultural disciplines and that it is being consolidated as a sociological phenomenon influenced by social, cultural and anthropological factors. All this while analysing how these cycles of transformation have been constant throughout history and, therefore, there is not so much that distances society from ‘traditional culture’.

Summary
Football is arguably the most globally widespread activity in human history. Created in the United Kingdom in the 19th century, the game has evolved to this day in an extraordinary social way, to the point where it has established itself as an international language that crosses borders around the globe. This condition makes football an almost inherent element in the evolution of contemporary societies, and serves as a thermometer for many issues that concern us on a community and life level. One such issue is none other than geopolitics. Despite the growing tendency to try to separate football from political issues, the truth is that it is not possible. The very fact that competitions are organised on a national or international level makes clear the impact that politics has on the shaping of this sport, with the manifestation of national sentiments being one of the elements that can be most appreciated in these events. Football does not cease to be a representation of popular sentiment. This research starts with the idea of being able to understand how football as a mass phenomenon has the capacity to strengthen national sentiments and feelings of belonging to a specific territory or community, specifically by analysing the capacity of Real Club Celta de Vigo with respect to Galicia as a nation. For its execution, different qualitative research techniques are carried out, including interviews with authoritative voices within the club's active social sphere; an in-depth bibliographical review of the origins of the institution and its structural connections with Galician nationalism and other political issues of interest in the research; and a lot of fieldwork around the club, both at institutional and community level.

Summary
Social media emerged and was consolidated in contemporary societies as a fundamental scenario for political interaction, becoming conducive spaces to the dissemination of discourses and ideological agendas. The transformation it entailed also affects democracy itself, creating a space where participation, debate and the dissemination of content has an influence on both electoral processes and the health of democracy itself. The far-right is, in this sense, one of the ideologies that has best known how to capitalize on this new digital context, expanding its message through three spheres: the institutional, the pseudo-media and that of content creation. To carry out this analysis, methodological triangulation is used, combining qualitative and quantitative analysis techniques. Firstly, an exploration of the content published by Vox in 2023 is carried out and, secondly, the publications of actors from other spheres are addressed in the specific context of July 23, 2023 elections. In addition, social network analysis tools are used to examine the interaction and dissemination of this content, as well as the growth of the channels in question. Finally, the previous results are complemented by a series of interviews that allows us to verify the existence of thematic patterns and specific communication strategies. The results show a relatively cohesive communication on the part of the Spanish extreme right, with a discourse that highlights criticism of the government or questioning of the electoral system itself. In this sense, there are elements that coincide between the different actors at the level of ideology, online activity, treatment and style or discourse, but also other characteristics that differentiate them and that allow us to speak, precisely, of the existence of the three indicated spheres. Through these messages, in short, the extreme right seeks to polarize public debate and erode trust in democratic institutions and in the media itself.

The origin of film correspondence left a mark on the history of cinematography, allowing authors to explore and share their experiences and emotions through their letters and images. Nó-las dúas is a work that mixes photography, music and film correspondence, establishing a link between all these artistic disciplines: the love between two university students in the city of Santiago de Compostela. This project vindicates the importance of the influence they exert on the spaces we inhabit, the wellbeing of a space and how memories build who we are.

Summary
Social media has emerged as the most popular means of communication. Football clubs have not overlooked this trend and now focus their communication strategies on these platforms. This study analyzes how the four Galician football clubs with the most online impact, R.C. Celta de Vigo, Deportivo de La Coruña, Racing Club de Ferrol, and C.D. Lugo, use these channels. The sample includes more than 3,700 posts on their X, Facebook, Instagram, YouTube, and TikTok accounts. Various metrics and formats were analyzed to determine which institutions manage these networks best and what the ideal way to post on each platform is. Interviews with the social media managers of these clubs were also conducted. The results show a clear preference for visual content, emphasizing images and videos. X is the platform with the highest posting intensity, while Instagram generates the most interactions. Celta has the best average interactions per post, Dépor stands out for more consistent results across all networks, and C.D. Lugo shows the poorest data. The interviews confirm that the clubs promote the defense of Galician culture and values.

Summary
Political polarization in Spain is a phenomenon of notable growth in recent years. In view of this progressive distancing between the ideological positions of the population, this study aims to analyze the role played by the media in this event. For this purpose, the method used is based, firstly, on the review of different communication theories; and, secondly, on the study of the answers obtained from a questionnaire whose purpose is to know the information consumption behavior of individuals. In this research a methodological triangulation has been used, since the data obtained from the questionnaire have been analyzed, basing them on the theories of cognitive dissonance, the spiral of silence, Agenda-Setting and framing. The results show that media activity and consumption behavior influence people's political opinions, in accordance with the theories reviewed.

The AIDS epidemic began in the 1980s and millions of people are still living with HIV. During the first years there was great anxiety in the general population caused by the lack of knowledge about its cause and transmission. The media played a relevant role in the evolution of the epidemic and sometimes contributed to maintain this lack of knowledge, also helping to build the social perception of HIV and the prejudices that existed towards people who were infected, mainly homophobia. With scientific and social advances, the media treatment evolved. This Traballo de Fin de Grao analyzes the information related to HIV/AIDS published between April 2022 and March 2024 in three Spanish media: El País, La Vanguardia and El Mundo, with the aim of finding out which are the issues that most interest the media in relation to this virus. For this purpose, this study applies a quantitative content analysis, for which an analysis sheet composed of nine variables was designed. The results show that there is a variety of topics and perspectives and a notable interest in the cultural field.

Summary
This report aims to explain the creation process of the short film A memoria das pedras, which was carried out within the framework of an undergraduate thesis project with the aim of applying the learning acquired in the degree course, developing new skills and building a solid basis for the project to have a future trajectory. It is included in the so-called hybrid films, combining real image with 2D animation as a means to represent the connection between the real world and the world of memories, thus exploring the topic of memory approached from fiction and the technique of rotoscoping as an expressive medium.

Summary
“Loneliness in the era of connectivity” is a multimedia photo report that aims to shed light and focus on a growing problem in today's society: loneliness. This silent epidemic is increasingly common and according to the latest studies it has skyrocketed since the Covid-19 pandemic. Despite living in the most connected time in history (thanks to social networks, the Internet and telecommunications systems we are globally connected) the reality is that feelings of loneliness increase. Does this have anything to do with the Internet and social media? Are they part of the problem or the solution? Does it affect all ages equally? What can help us and what harms us the most? Throughout the report and through photographs, videos, testimonies and interviews, loneliness is covered from all its branches and perspectives.
