Abstract

The audio-visuals (AV), the most universal mass medium, are considered as an extension of our physical and psychical faculties. Able to capture human emotions, they do not express by words but by the pitch, gestures, facial expression and body language. How is it possible that such an important medium has not be taken into account as a common channel of scientific communication? The answer could be: it does not form part of our habits, there is some pessimism about its productivity and there is a lack of policies to stimulate its use. The authors think that AV are an important tool to be used for science communication and research. This assay aims to be a small contribution to encourage people to use AV and also to give them some guidelines about how to do the script and the production. Moreover, it also includes references of some specific books for people who want to deepen in technical aspects (script and production).
