Abstract(s)
O fotojornalismo português tem atravessado grandes mudanças ao longo do seu percurso.
Atualmente, a Internet tem vindo a pôr em causa paradigmas associados à sua prática,
revelando-se importante analisar o que a rege, quais os seus valores.
O processo de produção da fotografia jornalística atravessa várias etapas de seleção; as
decisões variam de indivíduo para indivíduo. Há diferentes formas de abordar o mesmo
acontecimento: a fotografia é uma construção social da realidade. Igualmente, os jornais
assumem uma identidade própria, podendo levar a constrangimentos organizacionais: a
política editorial de determinado jornal pode não ir ao encontro dos ideais dos seus jornalistas.
Os cortes financeiros e o advento cibernético contribuem para um aceleramento do
processo de produção fotográfico, exigindo mais trabalho em menos tempo. Ademais, fatores
como o 'fotojornalismo cidadão' têm vindo a testar o trabalho fotojornalístico.
O presente estudo pretende perceber como os fotojornalistas percecionam a sua profissão,
assumindo o atual cenário do fotojornalismo. Foram realizadas entrevistas a dez
fotojornalistas portugueses (repórteres e editores), que trabalham numa publicação (jornal ou
revista), numa agência, ou sendo freelancer.
Os entrevistados assumem várias condicionantes no seu trabalho, sobretudo questões
financeiras que, por sua vez, acentuam constrangimentos organizacionais, escassez de meios
humanos e de tempo.
Portuguese photojournalism has been through great changes during its course. Nowadays, with the Internet, paradigms related to photojournalism are being questioned, so it is necessary to analyze what governs this activity, and its values. Making photography for the press means several stages of selection: decisions vary from individual to individual. There are various ways to interpret and approach the same reality: photography is a construction of reality. Likewise, each newspaper has its own identity, which can lead to organizational constraints: a newspaper editorial policy may not be in accord with the ideals of its employees. Financial cuts and the cybernetic age have contributed to speed the process of journalistic photography, asking more work in less time to photojournalists. Furthermore, factors such as citizen’s photojournalism have been testing photojournalistic work. This present study aims to understand how photojournalists see their profession nowadays, given in consideration their actual scenery. Ten interviews were conducted with Portuguese photojournalists, from reporters to publishers, working in a publication (newspaper or magazine) or in an agency, or freelancers. Portuguese photojournalists speak about several constraints to their work, mostly regarding financial questions, which, in turn, accentuate the organizational constraints, the scarcity of human resources and of time.
