Abstract:

Digital technical possibilities has changed the understanding of mediatic entertainment. Within the new media ecosystem, documentary production has begun to take place through new participatory forms. Ancient Invisible Cities series, which is the object of this study, has been preferred for the following reasons: (i) Allowing participation through sensory messages and interaction, (ii) digital reconstruction of physical and analog ontological assets, (iii) making it possible to examine objects with three hundred sixty degrees video viewing experience through three-dimensional scans. It has been aimed to question the digital image in documentary making and to evaluate its aesthetic existence in documentary narration. With the content analysis, the perfect representation of the digital image and the realism of the documentary production have been evaluated. Consequently, it has been seen that the viewing experience shows an evolution of the classical flow by being articulated with the digital image and includes a hybrid content type.
