This special issue wants to gather research on *how digital technology and alternative forms of representation can help documentary films, as socio-cultural products, to carry out their role of reporting human rights violations and social injustices*. Therefore, the issue seeks to explore how the construction of meanings and their reception is modified by the new opportunities for documentary film, in the shape of alternative forms of representation and technological changes.


      Topics of interest include, but are not limited to:

    – Animated documentary: the representation of the real through
    animation.

    – Web-documentary: interactive documentary practices (i-docs).

    – Immersive documentaries and VR filmmaking: the reconstruction of
    reality through virtual and augmented interactive environments and
    how people experience them.

    – Transmedia practices: documentary production in association with
    social media campaigns (promotion).

    – New forms of citizen engagement, participation and mobilization.

    – Methodologies of evaluation of the social impact of documentary
    films through social media analytics (quantitative and qualitative
    methodologies).

    – Using big data for monitoring reality and how these new
    contents/evidences can be included in interactive platforms.
    Strategies of data visualization.

Research articles should be 6,000 words in length (including notes and references), while Viewpoint articles should not exceed 3,000 words. The editors will carry out a preliminary selection of abstracts.
