Para ver e ouvir: os elementos pré-visíveis e pré-audíveis nas vinhetas de abertura das telenovelas da TV Globo

Abstract

For 70 years, the soap opera enter the people's homes carrying entertainment, creating emotions and discussing fundamental themes. Each of these soap opera, we have an opening vignette, besides being a work of art meticulously crafted by design, is also a business card for the story to be told. This research investigate the diversity in the language used in the construction of the opening vignettes of soap operas, observing the objects and their representations in the vignette, they will aggregate value to it so that we can immerse in the universe of a larger story, the soap opera itself. For this, we will go through the history of the vignette, since its appearance in print. As a methodological, we will use content analysis, by Laurence Bardin, will bring up other discussions about the object, allowing a more focused investigation in a group that can be divided into categories. To approach narrative elements, we start from the studies of Luiz Gonzaga Motta (2013) and Cândida Villares Gancho (1991). To define the terms "pre-audible" and "pre-visible", we use the studies Leonardo Sá (1991) on the concept of pre-auditability. We also resorted to the studies of Sidney Carlos Aznar (1997) and Rogério Abreu (2011), to understand the universe and history of the vignette. We conclude that vignettes can be considered as forms of narratives that synthesize a larger narrative, anticipating elements of pre-visibility and pre-auditability and performing various functions, discovered throughout the research.
