Ethnographic animation : participatory design with the Longhorn Maio
(Lusofona University, 2018) Wang, Yijing; Escola de Comunicação, Arquitetura, Artes e Tecnologias da Informação
This research proposes animation as a form of ethnographic documentary, exploring animation’s potential to document the underrepresented cultures (e.g. oral culture) of minorities. Drawing upon a critical analysis of the approaches and methods used in animated documentaries that involve minority issues, alongside preliminary studies of the Longhorn Miao, this project will result in an animated documentary that explores aspects of the cultural practices the group undertakes. This project’s contribution to knowledge lies in expanding the use of animation as an innovative form of ethnographic documentary, defining an emerging territory of ethnographic animation and expanding of participatory design principles to represent the Longhorn Miao people.
