  • The Consumption of Foreign Netflix Originals by American Audiences
    The consumption of foreign Netflix originals by American audiences Student name: Zuzana Pekárková Student number: 499221 Supervisor: Dr. Deborah Castro Mariño Master Media Studies – Media & Creative Industries Erasmus School of History, Culture and Communication Erasmus University Rotterdam Master Thesis September 2019 THE CONSUMPTION OF FOREIGN NETFLIX ORIGINALS BY AMERICAN AUDIENCES Abstract The increasing dominance and popularity of streaming video-on-demand platforms, most notably Netflix, has transformed the television and film industry – from disrupting established business models, to affecting the process of production, as well as audience’s attitudes and viewing behaviors (Pardo, 2013). One of these recent developments that remains largely unmapped in academic literature is the unprecedented success of non-English Netflix originals on the American market. Shows such as the German Dark or Spanish Elite are breaking the traditional notion of a one-way flow between the continents and gaining avid viewers among the mainstream US audience, which has historically been thought of as rather resistant to international television imports (Hazelton, 2018; McDonald, 2009; Saleem, 2018). Hence, the present thesis explored this emerging phenomenon by investigating why do American viewers watch foreign Netflix originals and how does cultural proximity and individuals’ cultural capital relate to the consumption of foreign Netflix originals by American audiences. Additionally, the study also investigated the ways in which American viewers perceive the quality of foreign Netflix original and how these perceptions of quality contribute to the shows’ appeal. The exploration was guided by theories related to the transnational appeal of high-end television, the contemporary conceptualizations of quality TV and the theories surrounding the roles of cultural proximity and cultural capital in informing and motivating television viewership (Dunleavy, 2014; Jenner, 2018; La Pastina & Straubhaar, 2005).

International journal on media management, 21(2), 67-87. https://doi.org/10.1080/14241277.2019.1585355 1 Abstract: Social media have become useful tools for audiovisual promotion, especially to reach niche audiences. Twitter promotional strategies have been widely studied, yet other growing platforms such as Instagram have been less analyzed. This paper examines the Instagram promotional strategies of two pay-per-view platforms (HBO and Netflix) in two markets (the United States and Spain). A total of 731 messages, posted between May and November 2017, were analyzed to identify their formal features, objectives, and their content’s emotional and cognitive elements posted on HBO and Netflix’s Spanish and U.S. accounts. The results showed acute differences between how HBO and Netflix use their Instagram accounts in the two markets (Spain and the United States). The Spanish accounts mostly provided information, while the American accounts both provided information and promoted program content. Posts from U.S. accounts more frequently included links to social media, particularly to celebrity accounts. Spanish accounts relied more on diegetic images, whereas U.S.

  • Gender Representation in Subscription Video-On-Demand Spanish TV Series
    International Journal of Communication 15(2021), 581–604 1932–8036/20210005 Gender Representation in Subscription Video-On-Demand Spanish TV Series MARÍA MARCOS-RAMOS BEATRIZ GONZÁLEZ-DE-GARAY University of Salamanca, Spain In recent years, the increasing popularity of video-on-demand (VOD) platforms has changed Spanish audiovisual consumption. The main objectives of this article are to analyze the representation of gender in VOD Spanish productions. We pay particular attention to whether there is underrepresentation of character types and gender stereotyping with respect to occupation, traits, attitudes, and conversations. In addition, we set out to verify whether the image of women is different in VOD platforms compared with generalist television channels. To this end, we carried out a quantitative content analysis on a sample of 760 characters from Spanish fiction series produced by VOD platforms, broadcast between 2017 and 2020. The results obtained prove that even though new audiovisual platforms tend to incorporate equality, the underrepresentation and stereotyping of female characters in terms of professional occupation, family, and emotions still exist. Keywords: gender, character, Spanish TV fiction, VOD platform, content analysis The present work expands on the analysis carried out by González-de-Garay, Marcos-Ramos, Portillo-Delgado (2019) and De-Caso-Bausela, González-de-Garay, and Marcos-Ramos (2020) on Spanish television series aired during prime time on the six main generalist channels during 2016, 2017, and 2018. Both studies detected the underrepresentation and stereotyping of women. This article aims to analyze whether there is a consistent move toward equality in the portrayal of women in VOD platforms or whether stereotypes are still present in this form of viewing.
