Hello! My name is Gabrielle Ferreira, and I am a PhD student at the Department of Media and Communication at the University of Oslo.

Currently, I am researching the transnational expansion of Turkish TV dramas by focusing on Spain. Some of the questions I want to answer are how Spanish audiences perceive Turkish dramas, how these productions coexist with local content and content from other origins, and the proximities that exist within the reception process.

As a master's student, I have investigated the audience reception of Turkish TV dramas in the Latin American context, more specifically in Brazil and Uruguay. I have also been involved in projects regarding innovations in Brazilian telenovelas and reality TV shows.

I am very curious about how content travels globally and the interplay between linear television, streaming platforms, and informal distribution. Feel free to contact me if you wanna know more about my work or chat about TV!
