Definition of Audiovisualogy

Audiovisualogy is the study of audiovisual media, including cinema, television or other visual art forms.

The etymological meaning of the word "audiovisualogy" is linked, on the one hand, with audiovisual, the means jointly related to the view and the hearing and, on the other hand, to the suffix logy (after logos), which in Greek means treaty, knowledge.

It is also feasible to understand it as the means and art that combine fixed projected images (slides or digital support) in its montage, accompanied by sounds of a different nature, therefore meaning a language different from the film, since it does not use the image in motion.
