Argumento de Produccio Audiovisual(2008-2009) a Catalunya
The 2008-2009 biennium that we take as the subject of this report the Audiovisual Production Centre (OPA), will probably audiovisual history as a period of transition. A transition between growth and recession, between stability and uncertainty, including the assurances of the traditional business model and the new challenges of the digital age. Due to the multiple challenges, from a part of the paradigm shift in the processes of creation, production and distribution of cultural industries, and other universal impact of economic crisis, the Catalan audiovisual production and related sectors have experimented with different intensity the effects of the new situation. The first report of the OPA, dedicated to audiovisual production in Catalonia in the period 2005-2007, noted a progression still growing in almost all sectors. This second report of the Observatory for the years 2008-2009 recorded lines of continuity, but also of stagnation, with prospects rather problematic.\n0
