À sua própria criação: uma série de reportagens sobre a música independente de Santa Maria nas décadas de 1990 e 2010

Abstract

"To your creation: a reportages series on the independent music of Santa Maria in the 1990s and 2010s" contains five reportages that speak of independent music of Santa Maria in the 1990s and 2010s. The objective is to elucidate and exemplify the city scene in both periods. The work is justified because it is a material record of the independent musical scene in both moments, being then memory that also illustrates part of the history of the music of the city. The texts tell the story in a humanized way, with reports obtained by semi-open interviews that sought the possible dialogue, and also based on data obtained in the archive of the newspaper "A Razão" and on electronic websites. In addition to the reports, we discuss the guiding concepts for the production of the series, such as reporting, interview as a research method as a journalistic technique, and independent music. The concepts are presented before the reports, and, at the end, the analysis of the series is done, how and why it was thought, organized and, in fact, made, where are errors, correct answers and what can be done in relation to subject matter.
