Abstract
Hoy en día la visibilización de la comunidad LGTBIQ+ en proyectos audiovisuales se hace
cada vez más presente. Hay un avance significativo por parte de los medios en generar difusión
acerca de la diversidad sexual. Ya no se presenta únicamente en contenidos de adultos; sino
que también, hace algunos años los personajes LGTBIQ+ dejaron de ser una novedad en las
producciones para niños.
Esta investigación tiene como objetivo examinar la forma de representación del primer
personaje protagónico homosexual en una serie infantil de Disney. Este trabajo pretende
identificar si el personaje gay de Cyrus en la serie Andi Mack responde a una representación
adecuada libre de estereotipos con un discurso digno y de respeto. Para cumplir con este
objetivo se ha recurrido al análisis de contenido y se trabajará con escenas y capítulos
específicos; así como también, se utilizarán cuadros para recolectar datos acerca de la forma
de representación, la construcción del personaje y la evolución de su identidad de género a
través de las temporadas.
Los resultados demuestran que la forma de representación de Cyrus es a través de un mensaje
directo, un tratamiento natural, una línea narrativa presente y sin caer en la comicidad.
Nowadays, the visibility of the LGTBIQ+ community in audiovisual projects is becoming more and more present. There is significant progress by the media to generate dissemination about sexual diversity. It is no longer presented only in adult content; but also, a few years ago, LGTBIQ+ characters ceased to be a novelty in children's productions. This research aims to examine the way the first homosexual leading character is represented in a Disney children's series. This work aims to identify whether the gay character of Cyrus in the Andi Mack series responds to an adequate representation free of stereotypes with a dignified and respectful discourse. To meet this objective, content analysis has been used and specific scenes and chapters will be worked on; as well as, frames will be used to collect data about the form of representation, the construction of the character and the evolution of their gender identity through the seasons. The results show that the form of representation of Cyrus is through a direct message, a natural treatment, a present narrative line and without falling into comedy.
