Abstract

Virtual reality technologies are gradually developing themselves as a result of digital transformation and can be included in many fields. As a result of the penetration of this technology into journalism, different types of narratives have emerged. Immersive journalism is one of the mentioned narrative genres. The word immersive is used in different meanings such as spiral, enveloping, three-dimensional, but when evaluated together with journalism, it cannot be found in Turkish. For this reason, the commonly preferred term immersive journalism was used in the study.This type of journalism, which is realized in line with the possibilities offered by virtual reality technologies, mainly consists of images that allow viewing with 360°. In this context, Euronews and The New York Times, which create their news with 360° images, were examined in this study, and the news videos uploaded by both news channels on YouTube were evaluated by content analysis method. As a resultof the study, it has been determined that 360° news videos are mainly given on culture, art and travel, the frequency of uploading 360° news videos by the media has changed over the years, and both media present their news at similar times.

Özet

Sanal gerçeklik teknolojileri dijital dönüşümün neticesinde giderek kendini geliştirmekte ve birçok alanın içerisine dahil olabilmektedir. Bu teknolojinin gazeteciliğin içine girmesinin sonucunda da farklı anlatı türleri ortaya çıkmaktadır. Sarmal (immersive) gazetecilik, sözü edilen anlatı türlerinden biri olarak kendini göstermektedir. Immersive kelimesi sarmal, sarmalayan, üç boyutlu, sürükleyici gibi farklı anlamlarda kullanılmakta ancak gazetecilik ile bir arada değerlendirildiğinde tam olarak Türkçe karşılığı bulunmamaktadır. Çalışmada bu sebeple yaygın olarak tercih edilen sarmal gazetecilik terimi kullanılmıştır. Sanal gerçeklik teknolojilerinin sunduğu imkânlar doğrultusunda gerçekleştirilen bu gazetecilik türü günümüzde ağırlıklı olarak 360° ile izlemeye imkân tanıyan görüntülerden oluşmaktadır. Bu kapsamda çalışmada 360° görüntülerle haberlerini oluşturan Euronews ve The New York Times incelenerek her iki haber mecrasının YouTube üzerinden yükledikleri haber videoları içerik analizi yöntemiyle değerlendirilmiştir. Çalışmanın sonucunda 360° haber videolarının ağırlıklı olarak kültür-sanat ve seyahat konularında verildiği, mecraların 360° haber videoları yükleme sıklıklarının yıllar içerisinde farklılaştığı ve her iki mecranın da haberlerini benzer sürelerde sundukları saptanmıştır.
